26 I do take as witnesses against YOU today the heavens and the earth,+ that YOU will positively perish in a hurry from off the land to which YOU are crossing the Jordan to take possession of it. YOU will not lengthen YOUR days on it, because YOU will positively be annihilated.+

28 Congregate to me all the older men of YOUR tribes and YOUR officers,+ and let me speak in their hearing these words, and let me take the heavens and the earth as witnesses against them.+

2 Hear,+ O heavens, and give ear, O earth, for Jehovah himself has spoken: “Sons I have brought up and raised,+ but they themselves have revolted* against me.+
