Deuteronomy 32:31

29 If only they were wise, they would understand it; they would comprehend their fate.

30 How could one man pursue a thousand, or two put ten thousand to flight, unless their Rock had sold them, unless the LORD had given them up?

For their rock is not like our Rock, even our enemies concede.

32 But their vine is from the vine of Sodom and from the fields of Gomorrah. Their grapes are poisonous; their clusters are bitter.

33 Their wine is the venom of serpents, the deadly poison of cobras.

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.
