The words of his mouth are iniquity and deceit: he hath left off to be wise, and to do good.

Deuteronomy 28:25

יִתֶּנְךָ יְהוָה׀ נִגָּף לִפְנֵי אֹֽיְבֶיךָ בְּדֶרֶךְ אֶחָד תֵּצֵא אֵלָיו וּבְשִׁבְעָה דְרָכִים תָּנוּס לְפָנָיו וְהָיִיתָ לְזַֽעֲוָה לְכֹל מַמְלְכוֹת הָאָֽרֶץ׃
25
The LORD shall cause thee to be smitten before thine enemies: thou shalt go out one way against them, and flee seven ways before them: and shalt be removed into all the kingdoms of the earth.

Leviticus 26:36

וְהַנִּשְׁאָרִים בָּכֶם וְהֵבֵאתִי מֹרֶךְ בִּלְבָבָם בְּאַרְצֹת אֹֽיְבֵיהֶם וְרָדַף אֹתָם קוֹל עָלֶה נִדָּף וְנָסוּ מְנֻֽסַת-חֶרֶב וְנָֽפְלוּ וְאֵין רֹדֵֽף׃
36
And upon them that are left alive of you I will send a faintness into their hearts in the lands of their enemies; and the sound of a shaken leaf shall chase them; and they shall flee, as fleeing from a sword; and they shall fall when none pursueth.

1 Timothy 5:12

ἔχουσαι κρίμα ὅτι τὴν πρώτην πίστιν ἠθέτησαν·

Having damnation, because they have cast off their first faith.
