Deuteronomy28:63

63 And it shall come to pass, that as the LORD rejoyced over you to do you good, and to multiply you: so the LORD will rejoyce over you to destroy you , and to bring you to nought, and ye shall be plucked from off the land whither thou goest to possess it .

His just indignation against you will be so great, that it will be a pleasure to him to take vengeance on you. For though he doth not delight in the death of a sinner, in it self, yet he doth doubtless delight in the glorifying of his justice upon incorrigible sinners, seeing the exercise of all his attributes must needs please him, else he were not perfectly happy.

Which was no ordinary land, but a most pleasant land, a land of promise, a token of Gods favour, and a pledge of their eternal inheritance, which was a great aggravation of their loss of it.
