Then my anger shall be kindled against them in that day, and I will forsake them, and I will hide my face from them, and they shall be devoured, and many evils and troubles shall befall them; so that they will say in that day, Are not these evils come upon us, because our God is not among us?

Verse 17 is found in chapter 31 of Deuteronomy. God announces to Moses that Israel will turn away after entering the land and commands him to write a song that will serve as a witness against the people. Joshua is again confirmed as successor. The section introduces an important tension: even after all the warnings, God anticipates future unfaithfulness while continuing to prepare Joshua to lead the people according to his purpose.

So wird mein Zorn ergrimmen über sie zur selben Zeit, und ich werde sie verlassen und mein Antlitz vor ihnen verbergen, daß sie verzehrt werden. Und wenn sie dann viel Unglück und Angst treffen wird, werden sie sagen: Hat mich nicht dies Übel alles betreten, weil mein Gott nicht mit mir ist?
Y mi furor se encenderá contra él en aquel día; y los abandonaré, y esconderé de ellos mi rostro, y serán consumidos; y le hallarán muchos males y angustias, y dirá en aquel día: ¿No me han hallado estos males porque no está mi Dios en medio de mí?
Aquel día mi ira se encenderá contra él. Los abandonaré y esconderé de ellos mi rostro; el pueblo será devorado y le sobrevendrán muchos males y angustias. Aquel día dirá: “¿No me han sobrevenido estos males porque mi Dios no está en medio de mí?”.
En ce jour-là, ma colère s'enflammera contre lui. Je les abandonnerai, et je leur cacherai ma face. Il sera dévoré, il sera la proie d'une multitude de maux et d'afflictions, et alors il dira: N'est-ce point parce que mon Dieu n'est pas au milieu de moi que ces maux m'ont atteint?
E in quel giorno l’ira mia si accenderà contro a lui, e io l’abbandonerò, e nasconderò da lui la mia faccia, e sarà consumato; e gran mali ed angosce gli avverranno; e in quel giorno egli dirà: Questi mali non mi sono eglino avvenuti perchè il Signore non è nel mezzo di me?
Assim se acenderá a minha ira naquele dia contra ele, e desampará-lo-ei, e esconderei o meu rosto dele, para que seja devorado; e tantos males e angústias o alcançarão, que dirá naquele dia: Não me alcançaram estes males, porque o meu Deus não está no meio de mim?
那時,我的怒氣必向他們發作,我必離棄他們,轉臉不顧他們,以致他們被吞滅,並有許多的禍患災難臨到他們。在那日,人必說:『這些禍患臨到我,豈不是因為我的上帝不在我中間嗎?』
