Deuteronomy 32:28

Verse 28 of 52. The 32nd of 34 chapters in Deuteronomy, in The Law.

24They shall be wasted with hunger, and devoured with burning heat and bitter destruction. I will send the teeth of animals on them, with the venom of vipers that glide in the dust.

25Outside the sword will bereave, and in the rooms, terror on both young man and virgin, the nursing infant with the gray-haired man.

26I said that I would scatter them afar. I would make their memory to cease from among men;

27were it not that I feared the provocation of the enemy, lest their adversaries should judge wrongly, lest they should say, ‘Our hand is exalted; the LORD has not done all this.’”

28For they are a nation void of counsel. There is no understanding in them.

29Oh that they were wise, that they understood this, that they would consider their latter end!

30How could one chase a thousand, and two put ten thousand to flight, unless their Rock had sold them, and the LORD had delivered them up?

31For their rock is not as our Rock, even our enemies themselves concede.

32For their vine is of the vine of Sodom, of the fields of Gomorrah. Their grapes are poison grapes. Their clusters are bitter.
