Deuteronomy 29:23-25

International Children’s Bible

²³ “The land is nothing but burning cinders and salt. Nothing is planted. Nothing grows. Nothing blooms. It is like Sodom and Gomorrah, and Admah and Zeboiim. The Lord destroyed them because he was very angry.” ²⁴ All the other nations will ask, “Why has the Lord done this to the land? Why is he so angry?”

²⁵ And the answer will be, “It is because the people broke the agreement of the Lord, the God of their ancestors. He made it with them when he brought them out of Egypt.
