Deuteronomy 29:27

25 And the people will answer, ‘It is because they abandoned the covenant of the LORD, the God of their fathers, which He made with them when He brought them out of the land of Egypt.

26 They went and served other gods, and they worshiped gods they had not known—gods that the LORD had not given to them.

Therefore the anger of the LORD burned against this land, and He brought upon it every curse written in this book.

28 The LORD uprooted them from their land in His anger, rage, and great wrath, and He cast them into another land, where they are today.’

29 The secret things belong to the LORD our God, but the things revealed belong to us and to our children forever, so that we may follow all the words of this law.
