Deuteronomy 4:31

Read in context

Deuteronomy 4:29–33 · Berean Standard Bible

29 But 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.

30 When you are in distress and all these things have happened to you, then in later days you will return to the LORD your God and listen to His voice.

31 For the LORD your God is a merciful God; He will not abandon you or destroy you or forget the covenant with your fathers, which He swore to them by oath.

32 Indeed, ask now from one end of the heavens to the other about the days that long preceded you, from the day that God created man on earth: Has anything as great as this ever happened or been reported?

33 Has a people ever heard the voice of God speaking out of the fire, as you have, and lived?
