~ Joshua to the Children of Israel ~

"Now I am about to go the way of all the earth.
You know with all your heart and soul
that not one of all the good promises
the Lord your God gave you has failed.
Every promise has been fulfilled;
not one has failed.
But just as every good promise
of the Lord your God has come true,
so the Lord will bring on you
all the evil He has threatened,
until He has destroyed you
from this good land He has given you.
If you violate the covenant of the Lord your God,
which He commanded you,
and go and serve other gods
and bow down to them,
the Lord's anger will burn against you,
and you will quickly perish from the good land
He has given you."

(Joshua 23:14-16)
