12For ifH518 you everH7725 goH7725 backH7725 and 1clingH1692 to the restH3499 of theseH428 nationsH1471, theseH428 which remainH7604 with you, and 2intermarryH2859 with them, so that you 3associateH935 with them and they with you, 13knowH3045 withH3045 certaintyH3045 that the LordH3068 your GodH430 will not continueH3254 to 4driveH3423 theseH428 nationsH1471 outH3423 from beforeH6440 you; but they will be a 5snareH6341 and a trapH4170 to you, and a whipH7850 on your sidesH6654 and thornsH6796 in your eyesH5869, untilH5704 you perishH6 from thisH2088 goodH2896 landH127 whichH834 the LordH3068 your GodH430 has givenH5414 you.

14“Now beholdH2009, todayH3117 6I am goingH1980 the wayH1870 of allH3605 the earthH776, and you knowH3045 in allH3605 your heartsH3824 and in allH3605 your soulsH5315 that 7not oneH259 wordH1697 of allH3605 the goodH2896 wordsH1697 whichH834 the LordH3068 your GodH430 spokeH1696 concerningH5921 you has failedH5307; they allH3605 have 8been fulfilledH935 for you, not 9oneH259 of them has failedH5307. 15But it will comeH1961 aboutH1961 that justH3512 asH3512 allH3605 the goodH2896 wordsH1697 whichH834 the LordH3068 your GodH430 spokeH1696 to you have comeH935 upon you, soH3651 10the LordH3068 will bringH935 upon you 11allH3605 the warningsH7451H1697, untilH5704 He has eliminatedH8045 you from thisH2088 goodH2896 landH776 whichH834 the LordH3068 your GodH430 has givenH5414 you. 1612When you violateH5674 the covenantH1285 of the LordH3068 your GodH430, whichH834 He commandedH6680 you, and you goH1980 and serveH5647 otherH312 godsH430 and bowH2331 downH2331 to them, then the angerH639 of the LordH3068 will burnH2734 against you, and you will perishH6 quicklyH4120 from the goodH2896 landH776 whichH834 He has givenH5414 you.”
