Deuteronomy 32:28-36

28“But Israel is a senseless nation; the people are foolish, without understanding.

29Oh, that they were wise and could understand this! Oh, that they might know their fate!

30How could one person chase a thousand of them, and two people put ten thousand to flight, unless their Rock had sold them, unless the Lord had given them up?

31But the rock of our enemies is not like our Rock, as even they recognize.

32Their vine grows from the vine of Sodom, from the vineyards of Gomorrah. Their grapes are poison, and their clusters are bitter.

33Their wine is the venom of serpents, the deadly poison of cobras.

34“The Lord says, ‘Am I not storing up these things, sealing them away in my treasury?

35I will take revenge; I will pay them back. In due time their feet will slip. Their day of disaster will arrive, and their destiny will overtake them.’

36“Indeed, the Lord will give justice to his people, and he will change his mind about his servants, when he sees their strength is gone and no one is left, slave or free.
