“Yea, all Israel have transgressed thy law, even by departing, that they might not obey thy voice; therefore the curse is poured upon us, and the oath that is written in the law of Moses the servant of God, because we have sinned against him.”
"All Israel has transgressed your law and turned aside, refusing to obey your voice. And so the curse and oath written in the law of Moses, the servant of God, have been poured out upon us, because we sinned against him"—connecting specific exile to the covenant curses outlined in Deuteronomy, establishing that judgment follows logically from violated conditions. The reference to Moses grounds the curse in the foundational covenant document and divine authority. Recognition of inevitable consequences demonstrates covenant understanding rather than resentment.
