20 Jehovah will never be willing to forgive him, but rather the anger of Jehovah and / His jealousy will burn against that man. Every curse which is written in this book will rest on him. Jehovah will blot out his name from under heaven.
21 »Jehovah will destroy you by piling on you all the curses that are written in this book of Law. You will be forgotten forever.
22 »The next generation of your children and foreigners who come from distant countries will see the plagues that have happened in this land and the diseases Jehovah sent here.
23 »All its land is brimstone and salt. It is a burning waste, unsown and unproductive. No grass grows on it. Like the overthrow of Sodom and Gomorrah, Admah and Zeboiim, which Jehovah overthrew in his anger and in his wrath.
24 »All the nations will say: Why has Jehovah done thus to this land? Why this great outburst of anger?'
25 »Then men will say: ‘Because they forsook the covenant of Jehovah, the God of their fathers, which he made with them when he brought them out of the land of Egypt.
26 »‘They served other gods and worshiped them. These are gods whom they have not known and whom he had not allotted to them.
27 »‘Jehovah became angry against this land and brought on it all the curses described in this book.
28 »‘His fierce anger and fury caused Jehovah to uproot these people from their land and deported them to another country. This is where they still are today.’
