“Then the LORD will scatter you among the peoples, and only a few of you will survive among the nations to which the LORD will drive you.”
Deuteronomy 4:27 (BSB)
Context Reading
25After you have children and grandchildren and you have been in the land a long time, if you then act corruptly and make an idol of any form — doing evil in the sight of the LORD your God and provoking Him to anger — 26I call heaven and earth as witnesses against you this day that you will quickly perish from the land that you are crossing the Jordan to possess. You will not live long upon it, but will be utterly destroyed. 27Then the LORD will scatter you among the peoples, and only a few of you will survive among the nations to which the LORD will drive you. 28And there you will serve man-made gods of wood and stone, which cannot see or hear or eat or smell. 29But if from there you will seek the LORD your God, you will find Him if you seek Him with all your heart and with all your soul.
