Deuteronomy 29:18-20
New American Standard Bible 1995
18 (A)so that there will not be among you a man or woman, or family or tribe, whose heart turns away today from the Lord our God, to go and serve the gods of those nations; that there will not be among you (B)a root bearing poisonous fruit and wormwood. 19 It shall be when he hears the words of this curse, that he will [a]boast, saying, ‘I have peace though I walk in the stubbornness of my heart in order [b]to destroy the watered land with the dry.’ 20 The Lord shall never be willing to forgive him, but rather the anger of the Lord and (C)His jealousy will [c](D)burn against that man, and every curse which is written in this book will [d]rest on him, and the Lord will (E)blot out his name from under heaven.
