26They went off and worshiped other gods and bowed down to them, gods they did not know, gods he had not given them. 27Therefore the LORD ’s anger burned against this land, so that he brought on it all the curses written in this book.
28In furious anger and in great wrath the LORD uprooted them from their land and thrust them into another land, as it is now.” 29The secret things belong to the LORD our God, but the things revealed belong to us and to our children forever, that we may follow all the words of this law.
