Deuteronomy 31:16-18

Revised Geneva Translation

¹⁶ And the LORD said to Moses, “Behold, you shall sleep with your fathers. And this people will rise up and go a whoring after the gods of a strange land (wherever they go in) and will forsake Me and break My Covenant which I have made with them.

¹⁷ “Therefore, My wrath will grow hot against them on that day. And I will forsake them and will hide My Face from them. Then they shall be consumed. And many adversities and tribulations shall come upon them. “So, then, they will say, ‘Have not these troubles come upon me because God is not with me?’

¹⁸ “But I will surely hide My Face on that day because of all the evil which they shall commit on the day they are turned to other gods.
