29. But if from there you will seek the Lord your God, you will find Him, if you seek Him with all your heart and with all your soul.
30. When you are in distress and all these things come upon you, even in the latter days, if you turn to the Lord your God and shall be obedient to His voice

32. Indeed, ask about the days that are past, which were before you, since the day that God created man on the earth, and ask from one end of heavens to the other, whether there has ever been any such thing as this great thing, or has anything like it ever been heard?
33. Has a people ever heard the voice of God speaking out of the midst of the fire, as you have heard, and lived?
34. Or has God ever tried to take for Himself a nation from the midst of another nation, by trials, by signs, and by wonders, and by war, and by a mighty hand, and by a stretched-out arm, and by great terrors, according to all that the Lord your God did for you in Egypt before your eyes?
