Deut.29.22

"Then the generations to come, both your own descendants and the foreigners who come from distant lands, will see the devastation of the land and the diseases the LORD will send against it.

Deut.29.23

And that the whole land thereof is brimstone, and salt, and burning, that it is not sown, nor beareth, nor any grass groweth therein, like the overthrow of Sodom, and Gomorrah, Admah, and Zeboim, which the LORD overthrew in his anger, and in his wrath:

Deut.29.23

They'll see a fire-blackened wasteland of brimstone and salt flats, nothing planted, nothing growing, not so much as a blade of grass anywhere--like the overthrow of Sodom and Gomorrah, Admah and Zeboiim, which GOD overthrew in fiery rage.

Deut.29.23

The whole land will be a burning waste of salt and sulfur-nothing planted, nothing sprouting, no vegetation growing on it. It will be like the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah, Admah and Zeboiim, which the LORD overthrew in fierce anger.

Deut.29.24

All the nations will ask: "Why has the LORD done this to this land? Why this fierce, burning anger?"

Deut.29.24

All nations would say, "Why has the LORD done so to this land? What does the heat of this great anger mean?'

Deut.29.24

The surrounding nations will ask, `Why has the LORD done this to his land? Why was he so angry?'

Deut.29.25

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:

Deut.29.25

Your children will answer, "Because they abandoned the Covenant of the GOD of their ancestors that he made with them after he got them out of Egypt;

Deut.29.25

And the answer will be: "It is because this people abandoned the covenant of the LORD, the God of their fathers, the covenant he made with them when he brought them out of Egypt.

Deut.29.27

Deut.29.27

So GOD's anger erupted against that land and all the curses written in this book came down on it.

Deut.29.27

Therefore the LORD's anger burned against this land, so that he brought on it all the curses written in this book.

Deut.29.27

Then the anger of the LORD was aroused against this land, to bring on it every curse that is written in this book.

Deut.29.27

That is why the LORD's anger burned against this land, bringing down on it all the curses recorded in this book.
