SEV Biblia, Chapter 28:39

Plantarás viñas y labrarás, mas no beberás vino, ni cogerás uvas ; porque el gusano las comerá.

John Gill's Bible Commentary

Ver. 39. Thou shalt plant vineyards, and dress [them] , etc.] Plant them and prune them, in expectation of much fruit from them: but shall neither drink [of] the wine nor gather [the grapes] ; so far from drinking of the wine of them, that they should not be able to gather any grapes from them: for the worms shall eat them ; a sort of worms pernicious to vines, which the Greeks call “ipes”, or “ikes” f503 ; and the Latins “convolvuli” and “volvoces”, as Pliny f504 .

Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 15-44 - If we do not keep God's commandments, we not only come short of the blessing promised, but we lay ourselves under the curse, which include all misery, as the blessing all happiness. Observe the justice of thi curse. It is not a curse causeless, or for some light cause. The exten and power of this curse. Wherever the sinner goes, the curse of God follows; wherever he is, it rests upon him. Whatever he has is under curse. All his enjoyments are made bitter; he cannot take any tru comfort in them, for the wrath of God mixes itself with them. Man judgments are here stated, which would be the fruits of the curse, an with which God would punish the people of the Jews, for their apostac and disobedience. We may observe the fulfilling of these threatening in their present state. To complete their misery, it is threatened tha by these troubles they should be bereaved of all comfort and hope, an left to utter despair. Those who walk by sight, and not by faith, ar in danger of losing reason itself, when every thing about them look frightful.
