Deuteronomio 32:4-14

Todo lo que hace es justo e imparcial.
Él es Dios fiel, nunca actúa mal;
¡qué justo y recto es él!
cuando actúan con tanta perversión,
¿son realmente sus hijos?
Son una generación engañosa y torcida.
,
pueblo necio y sin entendimiento?
¿No es él tu Padre, quien te creó?
¿Acaso no te formó y te estableció?
piensa en las generaciones anteriores.
Pregúntale a tu padre, y él te informará.
Averigua con los ancianos, y ellos te contarán.
cuando dividió a la raza humana,
fijó los límites de los pueblos
según el número de su corte celestial.
en un páramo vacío y ventoso.
Lo rodeó y lo cuidó;
lo protegió como a sus propios ojos.
y revolotea sobre sus crías,
así desplegó sus alas para tomarlo y alzarlo
y llevarlo a salvo sobre sus plumas.
y saciarse con las cosechas de los campos.
Lo nutrió con miel de la roca
y con aceite de oliva de los pedregales.
de la manada
y leche del rebaño,
y también con la grasa de los corderos.
Le dio de los mejores carneros de Basán y cabras,
junto con el trigo más selecto.
Bebiste el vino más fino,
elaborado con el jugo de las uvas.
Deuteronomio 32:4-14 Meaning and Commentary
INTRODUCTION TO DEUTERONOMY 32
This chapter contains the song mentioned and referred to in the former, the preface to it, De 32:1-3; the character of the divine and illustrious Person it chiefly respects, De 32:4; the ingratitude of the people of the Jews to him, who were a crooked and perverse generation, aggravated by his having bought, made, and established them, De 32:5,6; and which is further aggravated by various instances of divine goodness to them, first in providing and reserving a suitable country for them, at the time of the division of the earth to the sons of men, with the reason of it, De 32:7-9; then by what the Lord did for them in the wilderness, De 32:10-12; after that in the land of Canaan, where they enjoyed plenty of all good things, and in the possession of which they were, when the illustrious Person described appeared among them, De 32:13,14; and then the sin of ingratitude to him, before hinted at, is fully expressed, namely, lightly esteeming the rock of salvation, the Messiah, De 32:15; nor could they stop here, but proceed to more ungodliness, setting up other messiahs and saviours, which were an abomination to the Lord, De 32:16; continuing sacrifices when they should not, which were therefore reckoned no other than sacrifices to demons, and especially the setting up of their new idol, their own righteousness, was highly provoking; and by all this they clearly showed they had forgot the rock, the Saviour, De 32:17,18; wherefore, for the rejection of the Messiah and the, persecution of his followers, they would be abhorred of God, De 32:19; who would show his resentment by the rejection of them, by the calling of the Gentiles, and by bringing the nation of the Romans upon them, De 32:20,21; whereby utter ruin and destruction in all its shapes would be brought upon them, De 32:22-25; and, were it not for the insolence of their adversaries, would be entirely destroyed, being such a foolish and unwise people, which appears by not observing what the enemies of the Messiah themselves allow, that there is no rock like him, whom they despised, De 32:26-31; which enemies are described, and the vengeance reserved for them pointed out, De 32:32-35; and the song closed with promises of grace and mercy to the Lord's people, and wrath and ruin to his and their enemies, on which account all are called upon to rejoice in the latter day, De 32:36-43; and this song being delivered by Moses, the people of Israel are exhorted seriously to attend to it, it being of the utmost importance to them, De 32:44-47; and the chapter is concluded with a relation of Moses being ordered to go up to Mount Nebo and die, with the reason of it, De 32:48-52.
