Deuteronomy 29:24-29

Context
29:24 Then all the nations will ask, “Why has the Lord done all this to this land? What is this fierce, heated display of anger 1  all about?” 29:25 Then people will say, “Because they abandoned the covenant of the Lord, the God of their ancestors, which he made with them when he brought them out of the land of Egypt. 29:26 They went and served other gods and worshiped them, gods they did not know and that he did not permit them to worship. 2  29:27 That is why the Lord’s anger erupted against this land, bringing on it all the curses 3  written in this scroll. 29:28 So the Lord has uprooted them from their land in anger, wrath, and great rage and has deported them to another land, as is clear today.” 29:29 Secret things belong to the Lord our God, but those that are revealed belong to us and our descendants 4  forever, so that we might obey all the words of this law.
