"a nation of fierce countenance, that shall not regard the person of the old, nor show favor to the young, "
— Deuteronomy 28:50, American Standard Version
“A nation of fierce countenance, which shall not regard the person of the old, nor shew favour to the young:”
“a nation of fierce facial expressions, that shall not respect the person of the old, nor show favor to the young,”
“a nation of stern appearance that will have no regard for the elderly or pity for the young.”
“A most insolent nation, that will shew no regard to the ancients, nor have pity on the infant,”
“A hard-faced nation, who will have no respect for the old or mercy for the young:”
“A nation of fierce countenance, which shall not regard the person of the old, nor shew favour to the young:”
Because thou servedst not Jehovah thy God with joyfulness, and with gladness of heart, by reason of the abundance of all things;
therefore shalt thou serve thine enemies that Jehovah 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.
Jehovah will bring a nation against thee from far, from the end of the earth, as the eagle flieth; a nation whose tongue thou shalt not understand;
a nation of fierce countenance, that shall not regard the person of the old, nor show favor to the young,
and shall eat the fruit of thy cattle, and the fruit of thy ground, until thou be destroyed; that also shall not leave thee grain, new wine, or oil, the increase of thy cattle, or the young of thy flock, until they have caused thee to perish.
And they shall besiege thee in all thy gates, until thy high and fortified walls come down, wherein thou trustedst, throughout all thy land; and they shall besiege thee in all thy gates throughout all thy land, which Jehovah thy God hath given thee.
And thou shalt eat the fruit of thine own body, the flesh of thy sons and of thy daughters, whom Jehovah thy God hath given thee, in the siege and in the distress wherewith thine enemies shall distress thee.
