23 “‘And I will heap evils upon them;
    I will spend my arrows upon them;
24 they shall be wasted with hunger,
    and devoured with burning heat
    and poisonous pestilence;
and I will send the teeth of beasts against them,
    with venom of crawling things of the dust.

    and in the chambers shall be terror,
destroying both young man and virgin,
    the sucking child with the man of gray hairs.
