Deuteronomy 29:21-23

Contemporary English Version

^20-21 The Lord will be furious, and instead of forgiving you, he will separate you from the other tribes. Then he will destroy you, by piling on you all the curses in The Book of God's Law, and you will be forgotten forever.

²² The Lord will strike your country with diseases and disasters. Your descendants and foreigners from distant countries will see that your land ^23 (A) has become a scorching desert of salt and sulfur, where nothing is planted, nothing sprouts, and nothing grows. It will be as lifeless as the land around the cities of Sodom, Gomorrah, Admah, and Zeboiim, after the Lord became angry and destroyed them.^[a]
