Deuteronomy 28:66

The Curses of Disobedience

65Among those nations you will find no repose, not even a resting place for the sole of your foot. There the LORD will give you a trembling heart, failing eyes, and a despairing soul.66So your life will hang in doubt before you, and you will be afraid night and day, never certain of survival.67In the morning you will say, ‘If only it were evening!’ and in the evening you will say, ‘If only it were morning!’—because of the dread in your hearts of the terrifying sights you will see.
