יַכְּכָ֣ה יְ֠הוָה בַּשַּׁחֶ֨פֶת וּבַקַּדַּ֜חַת וּבַדַּלֶּ֗קֶת וּבַֽחַרְחֻר֙ וּבַחֶ֔רֶב וּבַשִּׁדָּפ֖וֹן וּבַיֵּרָק֑וֹן וּרְדָפ֖וּךָ עַ֥ד אָבְדֶֽךָ׃
Porazi cię Wiekuisty suchotami, i zimnicą, i gorączką, i zapaleniem, i posuchą, i śniecią, i rdzą, - i prześladować cię będą, aż zginiesz.
Mishneh Torah, Fasts
About blight and about chlorosis, from when it begins in the produce. And we decree a fast about it and sound [trumpets] even if it only began in a small place, like the fill of the opening of an oven.
Mishneh Torah, Fasts
About sicknesses — how is this? See that [if] a sickness came down upon many people in one city — such as diphtheria or violent fever and that which is similar to them — and they were dying from this sickness, it is surely a communal trouble. So we decree a fast for it and sound [trumpets]. And likewise do we fast and sound [trumpets] for damp scabs (chikhukh). But we only cry out for dry scabs.
