30. It will be hard when all these things happen to you. But after that you will come back to the Lord your God and obey him,
31. because the Lord your God is a merciful God. He will not leave you or destroy you. He will not forget the Agreement with your ancestors, which he swore to them.
32. Nothing like this has ever happened before! Look at the past, long before you were even born. Go all the way back to when God made humans on the earth, and look from one end of heaven to the other. Nothing like this has ever been heard of!
33. No other people have ever heard God speak from a fire and have still lived. But you have.
34. No other god has ever taken for himself one nation out of another. But the Lord your God did this for you in Egypt, right before your own eyes. He did it with tests, signs, miracles, war, and great sights, by his great power and strength.
35. He showed you things so you would know that the Lord is God, and there is no other God besides him.
