This years passuk - calculated by counting backwards from the end of the Torah (5845) - is (Ha’azinu 5th Aliya Passuk 31):
כִּ֛י לֹ֥א כְצוּרֵ֖נוּ צוּרָ֑ם וְאֹיְבֵ֖ינוּ פְּלִילִֽים׃
The Passuk for 5780/2020 - the year of corona - is:
כִּי־ג֛וֹי אֹבַ֥ד עֵצ֖וֹת הֵ֑מָּה וְאֵ֥ין בָּהֶ֖ם תְּבוּנָֽה׃
The Meforshim tell us this is talking about the Goyim, the דעת זקנים tells us:
כי גוי אובד עצות המה. אותם האויבים שמסרתי ישראל בידם אבדה עצתם ואין בהם תבונה:
And from this Passuk onwards for the next few Pessukim, the Torah is talking about the Goyim. From this point the tide seems to have turned against the Goyim, according to the Pessukim, and according to what we have seen with our own eyes.
About this years Passuk, the דעת זקנים tells us (about the Goyim):
. . .
היה להם להבין כי מאחר שלקו ישראל שהם בניו של מקום על רוע מעלליהם יש להם לישא ק"ו בעצמם ועתה מפרש והולך מה אחריתם
Is this Passuk hinting to us that Hashem’s retribution against the Goyim (that appears to have started in 5780/2020) is now going to escalate?

You couldn't translate the pesukim into English?
Sorry, I didn't have much time.
I will post the translations after Yom Kippur.
