If they further <b>resolved not to separate challah</b> while baking bread, <b>a famine of destruction arrives,</b> wherein rain ceases, and even rivers and lakes are dried out. 4. <b>Deadly plagues arrive in the world</b> when people commit sins that <b>according to Torah</b> law call for the <b>death penalty</b> from God, and the Jewish <b>court of law is denied</b> the duty of carrying it out—God sends a plague in its place. <b>Plagues likewise arrive in the world when</b> statutes covering <b>produce</b> raised in the <b>seventh</b> (Sabbatical) year go unheeded. 5. The <b>sword of war arrives upon the world from the anguish</b> judges inflict by postponing proclamation of a <b>verdict; because of</b> judges <b>perverting a verdict; and because of</b> people <b>who</b> expound and <b>teach Torah</b> matters <b>not in keeping with the Jewish law.</b>¹ u|mik|tza|TAN ei|NAN me-as|RIN, re-AV shel me|hu|MAH ba, mik|tza|TAN re-e|VIM u|mik|tza|TAN s've-IM. ga|me|RU she|LO le-a|SER, re-AV shel ba|TZO|ret ba. ve|she|LO li|TOL et ha|cha|LAH, re-AV shel k'la|YAH ba.
