"When you father children and have ^(F1)grandchildren, and you grow old in the land, and you ^(C1)act corruptly, and ^(C2)make ^(F2)an idol in the form of anything, and ^(C3)do what is evil in the sight of the LORD your God to provoke Him to anger,

I ^(C1)call heaven and earth as witnesses against you today, that you will ^(C2)certainly perish quickly from the land where you are going over the Jordan to take possession of it. You will not ^(F1)live long on it, but will be utterly destroyed.

"The LORD will ^(C1)scatter you among the peoples, and you will be left few in number among the nations where the LORD drives you.

"^(C1)There you will serve gods, the work of human hands, ^(C2)wood and stone, ^(C3)which neither see nor hear, nor eat nor smell anything.
