Deuteronomy 28:31

Thine ox [shall be] slain before thine eyes, and thou shalt not eat thereof: thine ass [shall be] violently taken away from before thy face, and shall not be restored to thee: thy sheep [shall be] given unto thine enemies, and thou shalt have none to rescue [them].

Ver. 31. Thine ox shall be slain, &c.] Thou shalt be plundered of all, that is, deplumed, thy feathers plucked from thee to the very bare skin; - as plundering signifies in Dutch; and from the Dutch wars we first had the word plunder.
