35 The Lord will strike you in the knees and on the legs with severe boils which cannot be healed, and from the sole of your foot to the top of your head.

36 “The Lord will ^abring you and the king whom you set over you to a nation which neither you nor your fathers have known, and ^bthere you shall serve other gods—wood and stone.

37 And you shall become ^aan astonishment, a proverb, ^band a byword among all nations where the Lord will drive you.

38 ^a“You shall carry much seed out to the field but gather little in, for ^bthe locust shall consume it.

Deuteronomy 28:36

Thy king - The calamity shall be both universal, which even thy king shall not be able to avoid, much less the subjects, who have far less advantage and opportunity for escape; and irrecoverable, because he who should protect or rescue them is lost with them, Lamentations 4:10. Wood and stone - So what formerly was their choice and delight now becomes their plague and misery. And this doubtless was the condition of many Israelites under the Assyrian and Balylonish captivities.
