Last Updated : July 25, 2006


"Take heed to yourselves, that your heart be not deceived,
and ye turn aside, and serve other gods, and worship them;
And then the LORD'S wrath be kindled against you, and he
shut up the heaven, that there be no rain, and that the land
yield not her fruit; and lest ye perish quickly from off the
good land which the LORD giveth you."
Deuteronomy 11:16-17, KJV

"When heaven is shut up, and there is no rain, because they
have sinned against thee; if they pray toward this place,
and confess thy name, and turn from their sin, when thou
afflictest them: Then hear thou in heaven, and forgive the
sin of thy servants, and of thy people Israel, that thou
teach them the good way wherein they should walk, and give
rain upon thy land, which thou hast given to thy people for
an inheritance. If there be in the land famine, if there be
pestilence, blasting, mildew, locust, or if there be
caterpiller; if their enemy besiege them in the land of
their cities; whatsoever plague, whatsoever sickness there
be; What prayer and supplication soever be made by any man,
or by all thy people Israel, which shall know every man the
plague of his own heart, and spread forth his hands toward
this house: Then hear thou in heaven thy dwelling place, and
forgive, and do, and give to every man according to his
ways, whose heart thou knowest; (for thou, even thou only,
knowest the hearts of all the children of men;) That they
may fear thee all the days that they live in the land which
thou gavest unto our fathers."
1 Kings 8:35-40, KJV

"Then there was a famine in the days of David three years,
year after year; and David enquired of the LORD. And the

because he slew the Gibeonites."

"Then spake Elisha unto the woman, whose son he had restored
to life, saying, Arise, and go thou and thine household, and
sojourn wheresoever thou canst sojourn: for the LORD hath
called for a famine; and it shall also come upon the land
seven years."
2 Kings 8:1, KJV

whole staff of bread."

among them, till they be consumed from off the land that I

which will not serve the same Nebuchadnezzar the king of
Babylon, and that will not put their neck under the yoke of
the king of Babylon, that nation will I punish, saith the
LORD, with the sword, and with the famine, and with the
pestilence, until I have consumed them by his hand."
Jeremiah 27:8, KJV

"Thus saith the LORD of hosts; Behold, I will send upon them
the sword, the famine, and the pestilence, and will make
them like vile figs, that cannot be eaten, they are so evil.
And I will persecute them with the sword, with the famine,
and with the pestilence, and will deliver them to be removed
to all the kingdoms of the earth, to be a curse, and an
astonishment, and an hissing, and a reproach, among all the
nations whither I have driven them:"
Jeremiah 29:17-18, KJV

"Then it shall come to pass, that the sword, which ye
feared, shall overtake you there in the land of Egypt, and
the famine, whereof ye were afraid, shall follow close after
you there in Egypt; and there ye shall die. So shall it be
with all the men that set their faces to go into Egypt to
sojourn there; they shall die by the sword, by the famine,
and by the pestilence: and none of them shall remain or
escape from the evil that I will bring upon them."
Jeremiah 42:16-17, KJV

"A third part of thee shall die with the pestilence, and
with famine shall they be consumed in the midst of thee: and
a third part shall fall by the sword round about thee; and I
will scatter a third part into all the winds, and I will
draw out a sword after them."

with thy foot, and say, Alas for all the evil abominations
of the house of Israel! for they shall fall by the sword, by
the famine, and by the pestilence. He that is far off shall
die of the pestilence; and he that is near shall fall by the
sword; and he that remaineth and is besieged shall die by
the famine: thus will I accomplish my fury upon them."
Ezekiel 6:11-12, KJV
