King James Version

25

Then men shall say, Because they have forsaken the covenant of the Lord God of their fathers, which he made with them when he brought them forth out of the land of Egypt:

26

For they went and served other gods, and worshipped them, gods whom they knew not, and whom he had not given unto them:

27

And the anger of the Lord was kindled against this land, to bring upon it all the curses that are written in this book:

28

And the Lord rooted them out of their land in anger, and in wrath, and in great indignation, and cast them into another land, as it is this day.

29

The secret things belong unto the Lord our God: but those things which are revealed belong unto us and to our children for ever, that we may do all the words of this law.

    “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. They went and served other gods and worshiped them, gods they did not know and that he did not permit them to worship. That is why the LORD’s anger erupted against this land, bringing on it all the curses written in this scroll. 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.” Secret things belong to the LORD our God, but those that are revealed belong to us and our descendants forever, so that we might obey all the words of this law.”
