Deuteronomy 31:16-18

Christian Standard Bible

¹⁶ The Lord said to Moses, “You are about to rest with your ancestors,^(A) and these people will soon prostitute themselves with the foreign gods^(B) of the land they are entering. They will abandon me^(C) and break the covenant^(D) I have made with them. ¹⁷ My anger will burn against them on that day;^(E) I will abandon them and hide my face from them so that they will become easy prey.^(F) Many troubles and afflictions will come to them. On that day they will say, ‘Haven’t these troubles come to us because our God is no longer with us?’ ¹⁸ I will certainly hide my face on that day because of all the evil they have done by turning to other gods.
