DEUTERONOMY 28:27 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“The Lord will smite thee with the botch of Egypt, and with the emerods, and with the scab, and with the itch, whereof thou canst not be healed.”
The LORD will afflict you with the boils of Egypt and with ulcers, scurvy, and itch, of which you cannot be healed — disease references Egypt's plagues (Exodus 9:9-11), but now directed against Israel. The irony is pointed: those liberated from Egypt face Egypt's plagues.
