menu_book Verse in Context

25 When you father children and children’s children, and you have been long in the land, and then corrupt yourselves, and make a carved image in the form of anything, and do that which is evil in the LORD your God’s sight to provoke him to anger,

26 I call heaven and earth to witness against you today, that you will soon utterly perish from off the land which you go over the Jordan to possess it. You will not prolong your days on it, but will utterly be destroyed.

27 The LORD will scatter you among the peoples, and you will be left few in number among the nations where the LORD will lead you away.

28 There you will serve gods, the work of men’s hands, wood and stone, which neither see, nor hear, nor eat, nor smell.

29 But from there you shall seek the LORD your God, and you will find him when you search after him with all your heart and with all your soul.
