^18 (A)I announce to you today that you shall surely perish; you shall not prolong your days in the land which you cross over the Jordan to go in and possess.

¹⁹ Then it shall be, if you by any means forget the Lord your God, and follow other gods, and serve them and worship them, ^(A)I testify against you this day that you shall surely perish. ²⁰ As the nations which the Lord destroys before you, ^(B)so you shall perish, because you would not be obedient to the voice of the Lord your God.

^15 (A)Therefore it shall come to pass, that as all the good things have come upon you which the Lord your God promised you, so the Lord will bring upon you ^(B)all harmful things, until He has destroyed you from this good land which the Lord your God has given you. ^16 [a]When you have transgressed the covenant of the Lord your God, which He commanded you, and have gone and served other gods, and bowed down to them, then the ^(C)anger of the Lord will burn against you, and you shall perish quickly from the good land which He has given you.”

^26 (A)I call heaven and earth to witness against you this day, that you will soon utterly perish from the land which you cross over the Jordan to possess; you will not ^[a]prolong your days in it, but will be utterly destroyed.

²⁹ For I know that after my death you will ^(A)become utterly corrupt, and turn aside from the way which I have commanded you. And ^(B)evil will befall you ^(C)in the latter days, because you will do evil in the sight of the Lord, to provoke Him to anger through the work of your hands.”
