The LORD shall cause thine enemies that rise up against thee to be smitten before thy face: they shall come out against thee one way, and flee before thee seven ways.

Verse 7 is found in chapter 28 of Deuteronomy. The first great section of blessings describes agricultural prosperity, security, abundance, and recognition among the nations for Israel if it carefully listens to the voice of the Lord. The blessings encompass the city, field, descendants, animals, and crops. The structure presents national prosperity as a consequence of living within the covenant rather than as a possession independent of obedience.

Jehová entregará derrotados ante ti a tus enemigos que se levanten contra ti. Por un camino saldrán contra ti, pero por siete caminos huirán de ti.
L'Eternel te donnera la victoire sur tes ennemis qui s'élèveront contre toi; ils sortiront contre toi par un seul chemin, et ils s'enfuiront devant toi par sept chemins.
Il Signore metterà i tuoi nemici che si saran levati contro a te, in rotta e sconfitta davanti a te; per una via usciranno contro a te, e per sette vie fuggiranno d’innanzi a te.
O SENHOR entregará, feridos diante de ti, os teus inimigos, que se levantarem contra ti; por um caminho sairão contra ti, mas por sete caminhos fugirão da tua presença.
