Deuteronomy 29:24-28

Context
29:24 Then all the nations will ask, “Why has the Lord done all this to this land? What is this fierce, heated display of anger 1  all about?” 29:25 Then people will say, “Because they abandoned the covenant of the Lord, the God of their ancestors, which he made with them when he brought them out of the land of Egypt. 29:26 They went and served other gods and worshiped them, gods they did not know and that he did not permit them to worship. 2  29:27 That is why the Lord’s anger erupted against this land, bringing on it all the curses 3  written in this scroll. 29:28 So the Lord has uprooted them from their land in anger, wrath, and great rage and has deported them to another land, as is clear today.”

9:7 Remember – don’t ever forget 7  – how you provoked the Lord your God in the desert; from the time you left the land of Egypt until you came to this place you were constantly rebelling against him. 8  9:8 At Horeb you provoked him and he was angry enough with you to destroy you. 9:9 When I went up the mountain to receive the stone tablets, the tablets of the covenant that the Lord made with you, I remained there 9  forty days and nights, eating and drinking nothing.
