Deuteronomy 31:16-18

Complete Jewish Bible

¹⁶ Adonai said to Moshe, “You are about to sleep with your ancestors. But this people will get up and offer themselves as prostitutes to the foreign gods of the land where they are going. When they are with those gods, they will abandon me and break my covenant which I have made with them. ¹⁷ Then my anger will flare up, and I will abandon them and hide my face from them. They will be devoured, and many calamities and troubles will come upon them. Then they will ask, ‘Haven’t these calamities come upon us because our God isn’t here with us?’ ¹⁸ But I will be hiding my face from them because of all the evil they will have done in turning to other gods.
