THE MESSAGE
Your children will answer, "Because they abandoned the Covenant of the God of their ancestors that he made with them after he got them out of Egypt; they went off and worshiped other gods, submitted to gods they'd never heard of before, gods they had no business dealing with. So God 's anger erupted against that land and all the curses written in this book came down on it. God , furiously angry, pulled them, roots and all, out of their land and dumped them in another country, as you can see."

Contextual Overview
10 You are standing today, all of you, before Jehovah your God; your rulers, your tribes your elders, and your officers, every man of Israel; 11 your little ones, your wives, and your alien who is in the midst of your camps, from the woodchopper to the one drawing your water; 12 so that you should enter into the covenant of Jehovah your God, and into His oath, which Jehovah your God is making with you today; 13 so that He may establish you today for a people to Himself, and He Himself be your God, as He has spoken to you, and as He has sworn to your fathers, to Abraham to Isaac, and to Jacob. 14 And I am not making this covenant and this oath with you alone, 15 but with him who stands here with us today before Jehovah your God; and also with him that is not here with us today. 16 For you know how we lived in the land of Egypt, and how we came through the nations through which you passed. 17 And you have seen their detestable things, and their idols of wood and stone, silver and gold, which were among them; 18 that there not be among you man, or woman, or family, or tribe, whose heart turns away today from Jehovah our God, to go and serve the gods of these nations; lest there should be among you today a root that bears gall and wormwood; 19 and it happens when he hears the words of this curse, that he should bless himself in his heart, saying, I shall have peace, even though I walk in the stubbornness of my heart, to snatch away the drunken with the thirsty.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
Then men shall say,.... The answer that will be returned to the above questions will be this
because they have forsaken the covenant of the Lord God of their fathers: breakers of covenants with men are always reckoned among the worst of men, see Romans 1:31; and especially breakers of covenant with God, and with such a God as the God of Israel was, so good, so kind, and gracious; and of such a covenant he made with them, in which so many good things were promised unto them, on condition of their obedience; as the continuance in, such a land they dwelt in, with an abundance of privileges, civil and religious: and this covenant God of theirs was the God of their fathers also; and it was always reckoned an heinous sin among the Heathens to forsake the gods of their ancestors; see Jeremiah 2:11;
which he made with them when he brought them out of the land of Egypt; which is another aggravation of their breach of the covenant the Lord made with them; it being made with them by that God, and at that time, when he in so wonderful a manner, with such mighty power, and a outstretched arm, and in great kindness and tenderness to them, brought then, out of hard bondage and most wretched slavery in Egypt.
