Deuteronomy 29:22-24

Expanded Bible

²² Your children, the generation that will come after you, as well as foreigners from faraway lands, will see the disasters that come to this land and the diseases the Lord will send on it. They will say, ²³ “The land is ·nothing but burning cinders [burned by sulphur] and salt. Nothing is planted, nothing grows, and nothing blooms. It is like Sodom and Gomorrah [Gen. 19], and Admah and Zeboiim [Gen. 14:2; Hos. 11:8], which the Lord ·destroyed [overturned] ·because he was very angry [^Lin his anger and his wrath].” ²⁴ All the other nations will ask, “Why has the Lord done this to the land? Why is he so angry?”
