Deuteronomy 7:13

7:13 He will love and bless you, and make you numerous. He will bless you with many children, ¹  with the produce of your soil, your grain, your new wine, your oil, the offspring of your oxen, and the young of your flocks in the land which he promised your ancestors to give you.

Deuteronomy 31:17

31:17 At that time ³  my anger will erupt against them ⁴  and I will abandon them and hide my face from them until they are devoured. Many disasters and distresses will overcome ⁵  them ⁶  so that they ⁷  will say at that time, ‘Have not these disasters ⁸  overcome us ⁹  because our ¹⁰  God is not among us ¹¹ ?’

Deuteronomy 31:21

31:21 Then when ¹²  many disasters and distresses overcome them ¹³  this song will testify against them, ¹⁴  for their ¹⁵  descendants will not forget it. ¹⁶  I know the ¹⁷  intentions they have in mind ¹⁸  today, even before I bring them ¹⁹  to the land I have promised.”
