Deuteronomy 32:20

And he said, I will hide my face from them, I will see what their end shall be: for they are a very froward generation, children in whom is no faith.

KJV

Et ait : Abscondam faciem meam ab eis, et considerabo novissima eorum : generatio enim perversa est, et infideles filii.

Vulgate

καὶ εἶπεν Ἀποστρέψω τὸ πρόσωπόν μου ἀπ’ αὐτῶν, καὶ δείξω τί ἔσται αὐτοῖς ἐπ’ ἐσχάτων ἡμερῶν. ὅτι γενεὰ ἐξεστραμμένη ἐστίν, υἱοὶ οἷς οὐκ ἔστιν πίστις ἐν αὐτοῖς.

LXX

And he said, I will hide my face from them, I will see what their end shall be: For they are a very perverse generation, Children in whom is no faithfulness.
