23 The skies over your head will be copper, and the earth beneath you, iron.+ 24 Jehovah will make the rain of your land powder and dust that will come down on you from the heavens until you have been annihilated.

8 E·liʹsha said to the woman whose son he had restored to life:*+ “Rise up and go, you with your household, and live as a foreigner wherever you can, for Jehovah has declared a famine,+ and it will come on the land for seven years.”

13 “Son of man, if a land sins against me by acting unfaithfully, I will stretch out my hand against it and destroy its food supply,*+ and I will send famine upon it+ and cut off man and animal from it.”+
