12 For if you turn back and cling to the remnant of these nations remaining among you (A)and make marriages with them, so that you associate with them and they with you, 13 know for certain that (B)the Lord your God will no longer drive out these nations before you, (C)but they shall be a snare and a trap for you, a whip on your sides and thorns in your eyes, until you perish from off this good ground that the Lord your God has given you.

14 “And now (D)I am about to go the way of all the earth, and you know in your hearts and souls, all of you, that (E)not one word has failed of all the good things[a] that the Lord your God promised concerning you. All have come to pass for you; not one of them has failed.
