List of Curses for your reference but I don't want to discuss them.

Leviticus 26:14 The LORD said, "If you will not obey my commands, you will be punished.

Leviticus 26:15 If you refuse to obey my laws and commands and break the covenant I have made with you,

Leviticus 26:16 I will punish you. I will bring disaster on you---incurable diseases and fevers that will make you blind and cause your life to waste away. You will plant your crops, but it will do you no good, because your enemies will conquer you and eat what you have grown.

Leviticus 26:17 I will turn against you, so that you will be defeated, and those who hate you will rule over you; you will be so terrified that you will run when no one is chasing you.

Leviticus 26:18 "If even after all of this you still do not obey me, I will increase your punishment seven times.

Leviticus 26:19 I will break your stubborn pride; there will be no rain, and your land will be dry and as hard as iron.

Leviticus 26:20 All your hard work will do you no good, because your land will not produce crops and the trees will not bear fruit.

Leviticus 26:21 "If you still continue to resist me and refuse to obey me, I will again increase your punishment seven times.

Leviticus 26:22 I will send dangerous animals among you, and they will kill your children, destroy your livestock, and leave so few of you that your roads will be deserted.

Leviticus 26:23 "If after all of this punishment you still do not listen to me, but continue to defy me,

Leviticus 26:24 then I will turn on you and punish you seven times harder than before.

Leviticus 26:25 I will bring war on you to punish you for breaking our covenant, and if you gather in your cities for safety, I will send incurable diseases among you, and you will be forced to surrender to your enemies.

Leviticus 26:26 I will cut off your food supply, so that ten women will need only one oven to bake all the bread they have. They will ration it out, and when you have eaten it all, you will still be hungry.

Leviticus 26:27 "If after all of this you still continue to defy me and refuse to obey me,

Leviticus 26:28 then in my anger I will turn on you and again make your punishment seven times worse than before.

Leviticus 26:29 Your hunger will be so great that you will eat your own children.

Leviticus 26:30 I will destroy your places of worship on the hills, tear down your incense altars, and throw your dead bodies on your fallen idols. In utter disgust

Leviticus 26:31 I will turn your cities into ruins, destroy your places of worship, and refuse to accept your sacrifices.

Leviticus 26:32 I will destroy your land so completely that the enemies who occupy it will be shocked at the destruction.

Leviticus 26:33 I will bring war on you and scatter you in foreign lands. Your land will be deserted, and your cities left in ruins.

Leviticus 26:34 Then the land will enjoy the years of complete rest that you would not give it; it will lie abandoned and get its rest while you are in exile in the land of your enemies.

Leviticus 26:35 (SEE 26:34)

Leviticus 26:36 "I will make those of you who are in exile so terrified that the sound of a leaf blowing in the wind will make you run. You will run as if you were being pursued in battle, and you will fall when there is no enemy near you.

Leviticus 26:37 You will stumble over one another when no one is chasing you, and you will be unable to fight against any enemy.

Leviticus 26:38 You will die in exile, swallowed up by the land of your enemies.

Leviticus 26:39 The few of you who survive in the land of your enemies will waste away because of your own sin and the sin of your ancestors.

Leviticus 26:40 "But your descendants will confess their sins and the sins of their ancestors, who resisted me and rebelled against me,

Leviticus 26:41 and caused me to turn against them and send them into exile in the land of their enemies. At last, when your descendants are humbled and they have paid the penalty for their sin and rebellion,
