Deuteronomy 29:28

Judgment

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

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

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.

This was said to Israel at a particular time, so it is wise to read it together with the surrounding text. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
