Deuteronomy 29:24-26

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

²⁴ Even all the nations shall say, Why has the Lord done thus to this land? What does the heat of this great anger mean?

²⁵ Then men shall say, Because they forsook the covenant of the Lord, the God of their fathers, which He made with them when He brought them forth out of the land of Egypt.

²⁶ For they went and served other gods and worshiped them, gods they knew not and that He had not given to them.
