I call heaven and earth to witness against you this day, that ye shall soon utterly perish from off the land whereunto ye go over Jordan to possess it; ye shall not prolong your days upon it, but shall utterly be destroyed.
A verse can bring hope. Share this message of faith with someone you care about.
Verse 26 is found in chapter 4 of Deuteronomy. Moses anticipates the possibility that future generations will become corrupt and worship images, bringing God’s judgment upon themselves. Yet he also announces that in the midst of exile Israel will be able to seek the Lord again and find him if they seek him with all their heart. The passage combines warning and hope: unfaithfulness will have consequences, but the covenant is not presented as completely canceled in the face of repentance.
