Deuteronomy 29:25-28

25Then men shall say, Because they forsook the covenant of the LORD, the God of their fathers, which he made with them when he brought them forth out of the land of Egypt;

26and went and served other gods, and worshipped them, gods whom they knew not, and whom he had not given unto them:

27therefore the anger of the LORD was kindled against this land, to bring upon it all the curse that is written in this book:

28and the LORD rooted them out of their land in anger, and in wrath, and in great indignation, and cast them into another land, as at this day.
