Deuteronomy 29:17-19

GOD’S WORD Translation

¹⁷ You saw their disgusting gods and idols made of wood, stone, silver, and gold. ¹⁸ Make sure there is no man, woman, family, or tribe among you today who turns from the Lord our God to worship the gods of those nations. Make sure that no one among you is the source of this kind of bitter poison.

¹⁹ Someone may hear the conditions of this promise. He may think that he is so blessed that he can say, “I’ll be safe even if I go my own stubborn way. After all, ⌞the Lord would never⌟ sweep away well-watered ground along with dry ground.”
