"When you ^[d]become the father of children and children's children and have remained long in the land, and ^(aj)act corruptly, and ^(ak)make an ^[e]idol in the form of anything, and ^(al)do that which is evil in the sight of the Lord your God so as to provoke Him to anger,

I ^(am)call heaven and earth to witness against you today, that you will ^(an)surely perish quickly from the land where you are going over the Jordan to possess it. You shall not ^[f]live long on it, but will be utterly destroyed.

The Lord will ^(ao)scatter you among the peoples, and you will be left few in number among the nations where the Lord drives you.

^(ap)There you will serve gods, the work of man's hands, ^(aq)wood and stone, ^(ar)which neither see nor hear nor eat nor smell.
