Deuteronomy 4:25-27

English Standard Version

²⁵ “When you father children and children's children, and have grown old in the land, ^(A)if you act corruptly by making a carved image in the form of anything, and ^(B)by doing what is evil in the sight of the Lord your God, so as to provoke him to anger, ²⁶ I ^(C)call heaven and earth to witness against you today, that you will soon utterly perish from the land that you are going over the Jordan to possess. You will not live long in it, but will be utterly destroyed. ²⁷ And the Lord ^(D)will scatter you among the peoples, ^(E)and you will be left few in number among the nations where the Lord will drive you.
