Leviticus 26:25, 33
And I will bring a sword against you to execute the vengeance of the covenant. Though you withdraw into your cities, I will send a plague among you, and you will be delivered into the hand of the enemy. / But I will scatter you among the nations and will draw out a sword after you as your land becomes desolate and your cities are laid waste.
Deuteronomy 32:25
