He noticed, all right. And he got fed up. Finally, he couldn’t take your evil behavior and your disgusting acts any longer. Your land became a wasteland, a death valley, a horror story, a ghost town.

You refused to listen to him, wouldn’t live the way he directed, ignored the covenant conditions.”
