DEUTERONOMY 28:48 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“Therefore shalt thou serve thine enemies which the Lord shall send against thee, in hunger, and in thirst, and in nakedness, and in want of all things: and he shall put a yoke of iron upon thy neck, until he have destroyed thee.”
Therefore you shall serve your enemies whom the LORD will send against you, in hunger and thirst, in nakedness and lack of everything; and he will put an iron yoke on your neck until he has destroyed you — slavery reverses: instead of serving God in abundance, serving enemies in deprivation. The 'iron yoke' ('ol barzel') is the symbol of harsh bondage (Jeremiah 28:13-14).
