Deuteronomy 28:31-32

Curses for Disobedience

31 Your ox shall be slaughtered before your eyes, but you shall not eat any of it. Your donkey shall be seized before your face, but shall not be restored to you. Your sheep shall be given to your enemies, but there shall be no one to help you. 32 g Your sons and your daughters shall be given to another people, while your eyes look on and fail with longing for them all day long, h but you shall be helpless.
