Deuteronomy 28:47

47 ^aBecause you did not serve the Lord your God with joyfulness and gladness of heart, because of the abundance of all things,

Jeremiah 5:19

19 And when your people say, ^b‘Why has the Lord our God done all these things to us?’ you shall say to them, ‘As you have forsaken me and served foreign gods in your land, ^cso you shall serve foreigners in a land that is not yours.’”

Romans 3:4-5

4 By no means! ^dLet God be true though ^eevery one were a liar, as it is written,

^f“That you may be justified in your words,
and prevail when you ^gare judged.”
5 But if our unrighteousness serves to show the righteousness of God, what shall we say? That God is unrighteous to inflict ^hwrath on us? ( ⁱI speak in a human way.)
