whence the heat of this great anger? 25And men shall say, Because they have forsaken the covenant of Jehovah theGod of their fathers, which he had made with them when he brought them forth out of the land of Egypt; 26and they went and served othergods, and bowed down to them,gods whom they knew not, and whom he had not assigned to them. 27And the anger of Jehovah was kindled against this land, to bring upon it all the curse that is written in this book; 28and Jehovah rooted them out of their land in anger, and in fury, and in great indignation, and cast them into another land, as [it appears] this day. 29The hidden things belong to Jehovah ourGod; but the revealed ones are ours and our children's for ever, to do all the words of this law. ‹Previous chapterDeuteronomy 28Next chapterDeuteronomy 30›Similar passagesBy tradition and source labelFind similarCompare selectedCompare with similarAsk Deep ThoughtSelect passages to search for parallels.VersionsDeuteronomy 29 across 9 versionsShow all 9WEB - World English BibleKJV - King James VersionASV - American Standard VersionDarby - Darby BibleYLT - Young's Literal TranslationWebster - Webster BibleGeneva - Geneva BibleDouay - Douay-Rheims ChallonerRV1909 - Reina-Valera 1909Tap any verse to select it, then compare selected passages or ask Deep Thought.
