Leviticus 26:29 in context

The verses around it, from Leviticus 26.

25 And I will bring a sword against you to execute the vengeance of the covenant. Though you withdraw into your cities, I will send a plague among you, and you will be delivered into the hand of the enemy.

26 When I cut off your supply of bread, ten women will bake your bread in a single oven and dole out your bread by weight, so that you will eat but not be satisfied.

27 But if in spite of all this you do not obey Me, but continue to walk in hostility toward Me,

28 then I will walk in fury against you, and I, even I, will punish you sevenfold for your sins.

29 You will eat the flesh of your own sons and daughters.

30 I will destroy your high places, cut down your incense altars, and heap your lifeless bodies on the lifeless remains of your idols; and My soul will despise you.

31 I will reduce your cities to rubble and lay waste your sanctuaries, and I will refuse to smell the pleasing aroma of your sacrifices.

32 And I will lay waste the land, so that your enemies who dwell in it will be appalled.

33 But I will scatter you among the nations and will draw out a sword after you as your land becomes desolate and your cities are laid waste.
