SEV Biblia, Chapter 28:43
El extranjero que estará en medio de ti subirá sobre ti muy alto, y tú descenderás muy abajo.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 43. The stranger that [is] within thee shall get up above thee very high , etc.] In wealth and riches, in power and authority, in honour and dignity. This Manasseh Ben Israel interprets of the Samaritans, whom the king of Assyria drove out of Samaria, and the neighbouring places; but the design of the expression is to show how mean and abject they should be in another country; that even one who had been a stranger or proselyte of the gate, when in their own country, should now be vastly above them: and thou shall come down, very low ; into a very mean condition, to be in great subjection, a vassal and a slave; (see <19A641> Psalm 106:41,42); and much more when reduced by the Romans, and sent to the mines in Egypt.
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.
