‘On that day’ #– #this is the Lord’s declaration #– #‘the king and the officials will lose their courage. The priests will tremble in fear, and the prophets will be scared speechless.’
Look, you scoffers, marvel and vanish away, because I am doing a work in your days, a work that you will never believe, even if someone were to explain it to you.’ ,
so that at noon you will grope as a blind person gropes in the dark. You will not be successful in anything you do. You will only be oppressed and robbed continually, and no one will help you.
‘When all these things happen to you #– #the blessings and curses I have set before you #– #and you come to your senses while you are in all the nations where the Lord your God has driven you,
Afterwards, Joshua read aloud all the words of the law #– #the blessings as well as the curses #– #according to all that is written in the book of the law.
