Deuteronomy 28:62-64

Contemporary English Version

⁶² There are as many of you now as the stars in the sky, but if you disobey the Lord your God, only a few of you will be left. ⁶³ The Lord is happy to make you successful and to help your nation grow while you conquer the land. But if you disobey him, he will be just as happy to pull you up by your roots.

⁶⁴ Those of you that survive will be scattered to every nation on earth, and you will have to worship stone and wood idols^[a] that never helped you or your ancestors.
