And he shall besiege thee in all thy gates, until thy high and fenced walls come down, wherein thou trustedst, throughout all thy land: and he shall besiege thee in all thy gates throughout all thy land, which the LORD thy God hath given thee.

Verse 52 is found in chapter 28 of Deuteronomy. The root of the judgment is identified as failure to serve the Lord with joy and gratitude amid abundance. Prosperity that should produce gratitude is replaced by self-sufficiency. The hunger, siege, and loss of food described afterward constitute a dramatic reversal of the agricultural blessings previously promised.

und wird dich ängsten in allen deinen Toren, bis daß es niederwerfe deine hohen und festen Mauern, darauf du dich verläßt, in allem deinem Lande; und wirst geängstet werden in allen deinen Toren, in deinem ganzen Lande, das dir der HERR, dein Gott, gegeben hat.
Y te pondrá cerco en todas tus ciudades, hasta que caigan tus muros altos y encastillados en que tú confías, en toda tu tierra: te cercará, pues, en todas tus ciudades y en toda tu tierra, que Jehová tu Dios te habrá dado.
Elle t'assiégera dans toutes tes portes, jusqu'à ce que tes murailles tombent, ces hautes et fortes murailles sur lesquelles tu auras placé ta confiance dans toute l'étendue de ton pays; elle t'assiégera dans toutes tes portes, dans tout le pays que l'Eternel, ton Dieu, te donne.
E ti assedierà in tutte le tue città, finchè le tue alte e forti mura, nelle quali tu ti sarai fidato in tutto il tuo paese, caggiano a terra; anzi ti assedierà dentro a tutte le tue porte, in tutto il tuo paese che il Signore Iddio tuo ti avrà dato.
E sitiar-te-á em todas as tuas portas, até que venham a cair os teus altos e fortes muros, em que confiavas em toda a tua terra; e te sitiará em todas as tuas portas, em toda a tua terra que te tem dado o SENHOR teu Deus.
他們必在你的各城圍困你,直到你在全地所倚靠、高大堅固的城牆都倒塌。他們必在耶和華-你上帝所賜給你全地的各城圍困你。
