27 And the Lord shall scatter you among the peoples, and ye shall be left few in number among the Gentiles, unto whom the Lord shall take you.
28 And there ye shall serve gods, the work of men’s hands, wood and stone, which neither see, nor hear, nor eat, nor smell.
29 But if from there, thou shalt seek the Lord thy God, thou shalt find him if thou seek him with all thy heart and with all thy soul.
30 When thou art in trouble and all these things are come upon thee, if in the latter days thou shalt turn to the Lord thy God and shalt hear his voice
31 (for the Lord thy God is a merciful God), he will not forsake thee, neither destroy thee, nor forget the covenant of thy fathers which he swore unto them.
32 Ask, therefore, now of the days that are past, which were before thee, since the day that God created man upon the earth and ask from the one side of heaven unto the other whether there has been any such thing as this great thing is, or has any other been heard like it?
33 Have a people ever heard the voice of God speaking out of the midst of the fire, as thou hast heard, and lived?
