Deuteronomy 32:29
World English Bible (WEB)
Oh that they were wise, that they understood this, that they would consider their latter end!
In context
27 were it not that I feared the provocation of the enemy, lest their adversaries should judge wrongly, lest they should say, ‘Our hand is exalted; the LORD has not done all this.’”
28 For they are a nation void of counsel. There is no understanding in them.
29 Oh that they were wise, that they understood this, that they would consider their latter end!
30 How could one chase a thousand, and two put ten thousand to flight, unless their Rock had sold them, and the LORD had delivered them up?
31 For their rock is not as our Rock, even our enemies themselves concede.
