Deuteronomy 4:25-27

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

²⁵ If you shall beget sons and grandsons, and abide in the land, and being deceived, make to yourselves any similitude, committing evil before the Lord your God, to provoke him to wrath:

²⁶ I call this day heaven and earth to witness, that you shall quickly perish out of the land, which, when you have passed over the Jordan, you shall possess. You shall not dwell therein long, but the Lord will destroy you,

²⁷ And scatter you among all nations, and you shall remain a few among the nations, to which the Lord shall lead you.
