And I will surely hide my face in that day for all the evils which they shall have wrought, in that they are turned unto other gods.

Verse 18 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.

Ich aber werde mein Antlitz verbergen zu der Zeit um alles Bösen willen, das sie getan haben, daß sie sich zu andern Göttern gewandt haben.
Empero yo esconderé ciertamente mi rostro en aquel día, por todo el mal que ellos habrán hecho, por haberse vuelto a dioses ajenos.
Yo esconderé sin falta mi rostro aquel día por todo el mal que habrá hecho, porque se habrá vuelto a otros dioses.
Et moi, je cacherai ma face en ce jour-là, à cause de tout le mal qu'il aura fait, en se tournant vers d'autres dieux.
E io nasconderò del tutto la mia faccia in quel giorno, per tutto il male ch’egli avrà fatto; perciocchè si sarà rivolto ad altri dii.
Esconderei, pois, totalmente o meu rosto naquele dia, por todo o mal que tiver feito, por se haverem tornado a outros deuses.
在那日,因人偏向別神所行的一切惡事,我必定轉臉不顧。
