Deuteronomy 32:1-15 (New American Standard)
View In My BibleThe Song of Moses
1 "1Give ear, O heavens, and let me speak ; And let the earth hear the words of my mouth. 2 "2Let my teaching drop as the rain, My speech distill as the dew, 3As the droplets on the fresh grass And as the showers on the herb. 3 "4For I proclaim the name of the LORD ; 5Ascribe greatness to our God ! 4 "6The Rock ! His work is perfect, 7For all His ways are ajust ; 8A God of faithfulness and without injustice, Righteous and upright is He. 5 "b9They have acted corruptly toward Him, They are not His children, because of their defect ; 10But are a perverse and crooked generation. 6 "Do you thus 11repay the LORD, 12O foolish and unwise people ? 13Is not He your Father who has bought you? 14He has made you and established you. 7 "Remember the days of old, Consider the years of all generations. 15Ask your father, and he will inform you, Your elders, and they will tell you. 8 "16When the Most High gave the nations their inheritance, When He separated the sons of cman, He set the boundaries of the peoples 17According to the number of the sons of Israel. 9 "18For the LORD'S portion is His people ; Jacob is the allotment of His inheritance. 10 "19He found him in a desert land, And in the howling waste of a wilderness ; He encircled him, He cared for him, He guarded him as 20the pupil of His eye. 11 "21Like an eagle that stirs up its nest, That hovers over its young, 22He spread His wings and caught them, He carried them on His pinions. 12 "23The LORD alone guided him, 24And there was no foreign god with him. 13 "25He made him ride on the high places of the earth, And he ate the produce of the field ; 26And He made him suck honey from the rock, And 27oil from the flinty rock, 14 Curds of cows, and milk of the flock, With fat of lambs, And rams, the breed of Bashan, and goats, 28With the finest of the wheat - And of the 29blood of grapes you drank wine. 15 "30But dJeshurun grew fat and kicked - You are grown fat, thick, and sleek - 31Then he forsook God 32who made him, And scorned 33the Rock of his salvation.New American Standard Bible Copyright © 1960, 1962, 1968, 1971, 1972, 1973, 1975, 1977, 1995 by The Lockman Foundation, La Habra, California.
