Parallel
Deuteronomy 29:19
World English Bible British Edition · Berean Standard Bible
and it happen, when he hears the words of this curse, that he bless himself in his heart, saying, “I shall have peace, though I walk in the stubbornness of my heart,” to destroy the moist with the dry.
because when such a person hears the words of this oath (note: Or curse), he invokes a blessing on himself, saying, ‘I will have peace, even though I walk in the stubbornness of my own heart.’ This will bring disaster on the watered land as well as the dry.
