<p class="poetry">They will teach Jacob your ordinancesp> <p class="poetry">and Israel your law;p> <p class="poetry">they will offer incense as a pleasant odor,p> <p class="poetry">and a whole offering on your altar.p>

for the <sc>Lordsc> your God, who is present among you, is a jealous God and his anger will erupt against you and remove you from the land.<n id="1" />p>

for they will turn your sons away from me to worship other gods. Then the anger of the <sc>Lordsc> will erupt against you and he will quickly destroy you.

For I was terrified at the <sc>Lordsc>&#8217;s intense anger<n id="1" /> that threatened to destroy you. But he<n id="2" /> listened to me this time as well.

Then all the nations will ask, &#8220;Why has the <sc>Lordsc> done all this to this land? What is this fierce, heated display of anger<n id="1" /> all about?&#8221;

That is why the <sc>Lordsc>&#8217;s anger erupted against this land, bringing on it all the curses<n id="1" /> written in this scroll.

So the <sc>Lordsc> has uprooted them from their land in anger, wrath, and great rage and has deported them to another land, as is clear today.&#8221;

<p class="poetry">For a fire has been kindled by my anger,p> <p class="poetry">and it burns to lowest Sheol;<n id="1" />p> <p class="poetry">it consumes the earth and its produce,p> <p class="poetry">and ignites the foundations of the mountains.p>

Then the anger of the <sc>Lordsc> will erupt<n id="1" /> against you and he will close up the sky<n id="2" /> so that it does not rain. The land will not yield its produce, and you will soon be removed<n id="3" /> from the good land that the Lord<n id="4" /> is about to give you.

You must not take for yourself anything that has been placed under judgment.<n id="1" /> Then the <sc>Lordsc> will relent from his intense anger, show you compassion, have mercy on you, and multiply you as he promised your ancestors.

The <sc>Lordsc> will be unwilling to forgive him, and his intense anger<n id="1" /> will rage<n id="2" /> against that man; all the curses<n id="3" /> written in this scroll will fall upon him<n id="4" /> and the <sc>Lordsc> will obliterate his name from memory.<n id="5" />

The whole land will be covered with brimstone, salt, and burning debris; it will not be planted nor will it sprout or produce grass. It will resemble the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah, Admah and Zeboiim, which the <sc>Lordsc> destroyed in his intense anger.<n id="1" />

At that time<n id="1" /> my anger will erupt against them<n id="2" /> and I will abandon them and hide my face from them until they are devoured. Many disasters and distresses will overcome<n id="3" /> them<n id="4" /> so that they<n id="5" /> will say at that time, &#8216;Have not these disasters<n id="6" /> overcome us<n id="7" /> because our<n id="8" /> God is not among us<n id="9" />?&#8217;
