Deuteronomy 32:26-28
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
26 I said: I will make an end of them
and blot out their name from human memory,
27 Had I not feared the provocation by the enemy,
that their foes might misunderstand,
And say, “Our own hand won the victory;
the Lord had nothing to do with any of it.”(A)
28 For they are a nation devoid of reason,[a]
having no understanding.
