Leviticus 26:15-46
if you reject my statutes and despise my ordinances, and do not observe all my commands— and break my covenant,then I will do this to you: I will bring terror on you— wasting disease and fever that will cause your eyes to fail and your life to ebb away. You will sow your seed in vain because your enemies will eat it.I will turn against you, so that you will be defeated by your enemies. Those who hate you will rule over you, and you will flee even though no one is pursuing you.“ But if after these things you will not obey me, I will proceed to discipline you seven times for your sins.I will break down your strong pride. I will make your sky like iron and your land like bronze,and your strength will be used up for nothing. Your land will not yield its produce, and the trees of the land will not bear their fruit.“ If you act with hostility toward me and are unwilling to obey me, I will multiply your plagues seven times for your sins.I will send wild animals against you that will deprive you of your children, ravage your livestock, and reduce your numbers until your roads are deserted.“ If in spite of these things you do not accept my discipline, but act with hostility toward me,then I will act with hostility toward you; I also will strike you seven times for your sins.I will bring a sword against you to execute the vengeance of the covenant. Though you withdraw into your cities, I will send a pestilence among you, and you will be delivered into enemy hands.When I cut off your supply of bread, ten women will bake your bread in a single oven and ration out your bread by weight, so that you will eat but not be satisfied.“ And if in spite of this you do not obey me but act with hostility toward me,I will act with furious hostility toward you; I will also discipline you seven times for your sins.You will eat the flesh of your sons; you will eat the flesh of your daughters.I will destroy your high places, cut down your shrines, and heap your lifeless bodies on the lifeless bodies of your idols; I will reject you.I will reduce your cities to ruins and devastate your sanctuaries. I will not smell the pleasing aroma of your sacrifices.I also will devastate the land, so that your enemies who come to live there will be appalled by it.But I will scatter you among the nations, and I will draw a sword to chase after you. So your land will become desolate, and your cities will become ruins.“ Then the land will make up for its Sabbath years during the time it lies desolate, while you are in the land of your enemies. At that time the land will rest and make up for its Sabbaths.As long as it lies desolate, it will have the rest it did not have during your Sabbaths when you lived there.“ I will put anxiety in the hearts of those of you who survive in the lands of their enemies. The sound of a wind-driven leaf will put them to flight, and they will flee as one flees from a sword, and fall though no one is pursuing them.They will stumble over one another as if fleeing from a sword though no one is pursuing them. You will not be able to stand against your enemies.You will perish among the nations; the land of your enemies will devour you.Those who survive in the lands of your enemies will waste away because of their iniquity; they will also waste away because of their ancestors’ iniquities along with theirs.“ But when they confess their iniquity and the iniquity of their ancestors— their unfaithfulness that they practiced against me, and how they acted with hostility toward me,and I acted with hostility toward them and brought them into the land of their enemies— and when their uncircumcised hearts are humbled and they make amends for their iniquity,then I will remember my covenant with Jacob. I will also remember my covenant with Isaac and my covenant with Abraham, and I will remember the land.For the land abandoned by them will make up for its Sabbaths by lying desolate without the people, while they make amends for their iniquity, because they rejected my ordinances and abhorred my statutes.Yet in spite of this, while they are in the land of their enemies, I will not reject or abhor them so as to destroy them and break my covenant with them, since I am the LORD their God.For their sake I will remember the covenant with their ancestors, whom I brought out of the land of Egypt in the sight of the nations to be their God; I am the LORD.”These are the statutes, ordinances, and laws the LORD established between himself and the Israelites through Moses on Mount Sinai.

Malachi 2:2
If you don’t listen, and if you don’t take it to heart to honor my name,” says the LORD of Armies,“ I will send a curse among you, and I will curse your blessings. In fact, I have already begun to curse them because you are not taking it to heart.

Revelation 9:18-21
A third of the human race was killed by these three plagues— by the fire, the smoke, and the sulfur that came from their mouths.For the power of the horses is in their mouths and in their tails, because their tails, which resemble snakes, have heads that inflict injury.The rest of the people, who were not killed by these plagues, did not repent of the works of their hands to stop worshiping demons and idols of gold, silver, bronze, stone, and wood, which cannot see, hear, or walk.And they did not repent of their murders, their sorceries, their sexual immorality, or their thefts.

Revelation 16:1-21
Then I heard a loud voice from the temple saying to the seven angels,“ Go and pour out the seven bowls of God’s wrath on the earth.”The first went and poured out his bowl on the earth, and severely painful sores broke out on the people who had the mark of the beast and who worshiped its image.The second poured out his bowl into the sea. It turned to blood like that of a dead person, and all life in the sea died.The third poured out his bowl into the rivers and the springs of water, and they became blood.I heard the angel of the waters say, You are just, the Holy One, who is and who was, because you have passed judgment on these things.Because they poured out the blood of the saints and the prophets, you have given them blood to drink; they deserve it!I heard the altar say, Yes, Lord God, the Almighty, true and just are your judgments.The fourth poured out his bowl on the sun. It was allowed to scorch people with fire,and people were scorched by the intense heat. So they blasphemed the name of God, who has the power over these plagues, and they did not repent and give him glory.The fifth poured out his bowl on the throne of the beast, and its kingdom was plunged into darkness. People gnawed their tongues because of their painand blasphemed the God of heaven because of their pains and their sores, but they did not repent of their works.The sixth poured out his bowl on the great river Euphrates, and its water was dried up to prepare the way for the kings from the east.Then I saw three unclean spirits like frogs coming from the dragon’s mouth, from the beast’s mouth, and from the mouth of the false prophet.For they are demonic spirits performing signs, who travel to the kings of the whole world to assemble them for the battle on the great day of God, the Almighty.“ Look, I am coming like a thief. Blessed is the one who is alert and remains clothed so that he may not go around naked and people see his shame.”So they assembled the kings at the place called in Hebrew, Armageddon.Then the seventh poured out his bowl into the air, and a loud voice came out of the temple from the throne, saying,“ It is done!”There were flashes of lightning, rumblings, and peals of thunder. And a severe earthquake occurred like no other since people have been on the earth, so great was the quake.The great city split into three parts, and the cities of the nations fell. Babylon the Great was remembered in God’s presence; he gave her the cup filled with the wine of his fierce anger.Every island fled, and the mountains disappeared.Enormous hailstones, each weighing about a hundred pounds, fell from the sky on people, and they blasphemed God for the plague of hail because that plague was extremely severe.

I will pour out my wrath on you very soon; I will exhaust my anger against you and judge you according to your ways.

Then you will know that it is I, the LORD, who strikes.
