Deuteronomy 8:19-20
New English Translation
19 Now if you forget the Lord your God at all[a] and follow other gods, worshiping and prostrating yourselves before them, I testify to you today that you will surely be annihilated. 20 Just like the nations the Lord is about to destroy from your sight, so he will do to you[b] because you would not obey him.[c]
