Curses for Not Keeping the Commandments

¹⁵ “^(A)But it will be, if you do not listen to the voice of Yahweh your God, to keep and to do all His commandments and His statutes with which I am commanding you today, that all these curses will come upon you and overtake you:

¹⁶ And Yahweh said to Moses, “Behold, ^(A)you are about to lie down with your fathers; and ^(B)this people will arise and play the harlot with the foreign gods of the land, into the midst of which they are going, and they ^(C)will forsake Me and break My covenant which I have cut with them. ^17 (D)Then My anger will be kindled against them in that day, and ^(E)I will forsake them and ^(F)hide My face from them, and they will be consumed, and many evils and troubles will find them, so that they will say in that day, ‘^(G)Is it not because our God is not among us that these evils have found us?’

¹³ “Go, inquire of Yahweh for me and the people and all Judah, concerning the words of this book that has been found, for ^(A)great is the wrath of Yahweh which is set aflame against us, because our fathers have not listened to the words of this book, to do according to all that is written concerning us.”

^17 (A)Because they have forsaken Me and have burned incense to other gods that they might provoke Me to anger with all the work of their hands, therefore My wrath is set aflame against this place, and it shall not be quenched.”’

⁵ I ^(A)Myself will war against you with an ^(B)outstretched hand and a strong arm, even in ^(C)anger and wrath and great indignation.
