Deuteronomy 28:32
Thy sons and thy daughters shall be given unto another people, and thine eyes shall look, and fail with longing for them all the day long: and there shall be no might in thine hand:
KJV
Filii tui et filiæ tuæ tradantur alteri populo, videntibus oculis tuis, et deficientibus ad conspectum eorum tota die, et non sit fortitudo in manu tua.
Vulgate
καὶ οἱ ὀφθαλμοί σου βλέψονται σφακελίζοντες εἰς αὐτά· οὐκ ἰσχύσει σου ἡ χείρ.
LXX
Thy sons and thy daughters shall be given unto another people; and thine eyes shall look, and fail with longing for them all the day: and there shall be nought in the power of thy hand.
