Deuteronomy 31:16-18
1599 Geneva Bible
16 ¶ And the Lord said unto Moses, Behold, thou shalt sleep with thy fathers, and this people will rise up, and go a whoring after the gods of a strange land (whither they go to dwell therein) and will forsake me: and break my covenant which I have made with them.
17 Wherefore my wrath will wax hot against them at that day, and I will forsake them, and will [a]hide my face from them: then they shall be consumed, and many adversities and tribulations shall come upon them: so then they will say, Are not these troubles come upon me, because God is not with me?
18 But I will surely hide my face in that day, because of all the evil which they shall commit, in that they are turned unto other gods.
