Deuteronomy 28:65

And among these nations shalt thou find no ease, neither shall the sole of thy foot have rest: but the LORD shall give thee there a trembling heart, and failing of eyes, and sorrow of mind:

Among these nations shalt thou find no ease, neither shall the sole of thy foot have rest. The phraseology used here is remarkable, and irresistibly recalls the fate of the first murderer, who was doomed to be a fugitive and a vagabond upon the face of the earth. A similar sentence was passed on the Jewish people for "killing the prince of life (Acts 3:15), when Jerusalem was destroyed by the Romans; and the history of the last eighteen centuries shows that this sentence has been literally executed.
