Deu 32:1 Give ear, O heavens, and I will speak. And hear, O earth, the words of my mouth.
Deu 32:2 My doctrine shall drop as the rain; my speech shall drop down as the dew, as the small rain on the tender plant, and as the showers on the grass;
Deu 32:3 because I will proclaim the name of Jehovah and ascribe greatness to our God.
Deu 32:4 He is the Rock; His work is perfect. For all His ways are just, a God of faithfulness, and without evil; just and upright is He.
Deu 32:5 They have corrupted themselves; they are not His sons; it is their blemish; they are a crooked and perverse generation.
Deu 32:6 Do you thus give back to Jehovah, O foolish and unwise people? Is He not your Father who bought you? Has not He made you and established you?
Deu 32:7 Remember the ancient days, consider the years of many generations; ask your father, and he will declare to you, your elders, and they shall say to you;
Deu 32:8 when the Most High divided to the nations their inheritance; when He separated the sons of Adam, He set up the bounds of the peoples, according to the number of the sons of Israel.
Deu 32:9 For Jehovah’s portion is His people; Jacob is the lot of His inheritance.
Deu 32:10 He found him in a desert land, and in the waste, a howling wilderness. He encircled him and cared for him; He guarded him as the pupil of His eye.
Deu 32:11 As the eagle stirs up its nest; it hovers over its young; it spreads out its wings and takes it, and bears it on its wing.
Deu 32:12 Jehovah alone led him, and there was no strange god with him.
Deu 32:13 He made him ride on the high places of the earth, so that he might eat the increase of the fields. And He made him suck honey out of the rock, and oil out of the flinty rock;
Deu 32:14 butter from cows, and milk from the flock, with fat from lambs, and rams of the sons of Bashan, and he goats, with the fat of the kidneys of wheat, and of the blood of the grape you shall drink wine.
Deu 32:15 But Jeshurun grew fat, and kicked; you grew fat, thick and sated. And he abandoned God who made him, and fell away from the Rock of his salvation.
Deu 32:16 With strange gods they moved Him to jealousy; and with idols they provoked Him to anger.
Deu 32:17 They sacrificed to demons who were not God, to gods whom they did not know, new ones who came lately. Your fathers had not dreaded them.
Deu 32:18 You forgot the Rock that brought you into being and ceased to care for God who formed you.
Deu 32:19 And Jehovah looked and despised them because of the provocation of His sons and of His daughters.
Deu 32:20 And He said, I will hide My face from them; I will see what their end will be; for they are a perverse generation, sons in whom is no faithfulness.
Deu 32:21 They made Me jealous with a not-a-god; they made Me angry by their vanities; and I shall make them jealous by a not-a-people; by a foolish nation I shall make them angry.
Deu 32:22 For a fire has been kindled in My anger, and it burns to the lowest Sheol, and consumes the earth and its produce; and sets on fire the foundations of the mountains.
Deu 32:23 I will heap evils on them; I will use up My arrows on them.
Deu 32:24 I will send on them exhaustion by famine, and depletion by burning heat, and bitter destruction, and the teeth of beasts, with the venom of crawling things of the dust.
Deu 32:25 The sword shall bereave from without, and terror from within, both the young man and the virgin, the suckling with the man of gray hairs.
Deu 32:26 I said, I will dash them to pieces; I will make their memory cease from among men;
Deu 32:27 saying, Were it not the provocation of an enemy I feared, that their foes should judge amiss, that they might not say, Our hand is high, and Jehovah has not done all this.
Deu 32:28 For they are a nation void of counsel, and no understanding is in them.
Deu 32:29 If they were wise, they would understand this; they would consider their latter end.
Deu 32:30 How could one chase a thousand, and two put a myriad to flight, if it were not their Rock that sold them, and Jehovah had shut them up?
Deu 32:31 For their rock is not our Rock, even our enemies being judges.
Deu 32:32 For their vine is of the vine of Sodom, and their grapes of the fields of Gomorrah, grapes of gall; they have bitter clusters.
Deu 32:33 Their wine is the venom of serpents, and the cruel venom of asps.
Deu 32:34 Is it not stored up with Me, sealed in My treasuries?
Deu 32:35 Vengeance and retribution belong to Me; in due time their foot will slip; for the day of their calamity is near, and the things prepared are hurrying for them.
Deu 32:36 For Jehovah will bring His people justice; and He shall have compassion on His servants, for He sees that their power is gone, and only the imprisoned and abandoned remain.
Deu 32:37 And He will say, Where are their gods, the rock in which they sought refuge?
Deu 32:38 Who ate the fat of their sacrifices, and drank the wine of their drink offerings? Let them rise up and help you; let it be a hiding place for you.
Deu 32:39 See now that I, I am He, and there is no other God with Me. I kill, and I keep alive. I wound and I heal, and there is no deliverer from My hand.
Deu 32:40 For I lift up My hand to the heavens and say, I live forever!
Deu 32:41 If I have sharpened My glittering sword, and My hand lays hold on judgment, I will render vengeance to My foes, and I will repay those who hate Me.
Deu 32:42 I will make My arrows drunk with blood, and My sword shall devour flesh, with the blood of the slain and of the captives, from the hairy head of the enemy.
Deu 32:43 Rejoice, O nations, of His people; for He shall avenge the blood of His servants, and shall render vengeance to His foes, and shall have mercy on His land and His people.
Deu 32:44 And Moses came and spoke all the words of this song in the ears of the people, he and Joshua the son of Nun.
Deu 32:45 And Moses finished speaking all these words to all Israel,
Deu 32:46 and said to them, Set your heart on all the words which I have testified against you today, that you command your sons to take heed to do all the Words of this Law.
Deu 32:47 For it is not a useless Word for you, for it is your life, and by this Word you shall prolong your days in the land where you are crossing over the Jordan, there to possess it.
Deu 32:48 And Jehovah spoke to Moses in that same day, saying,
Deu 32:49 Go up into this Mount Abarim, to Mount Nebo in the land of Moab, which is opposite Jericho; and see the land of Canaan which I am giving to the sons of Israel for a possession;
Deu 32:50 and die in the mountain where you are going, and be gathered to your people, even as your brother Aaron died on Mount Hor, and was gathered to his people;
Deu 32:51 because you transgressed toward Me among the sons of Israel at the Waters of Strife in Kadesh, in the wilderness of Zin; because you did not sanctify Me in the midst of the sons of Israel.
Deu 32:52 Yet you shall see the land across from you, but you shall not go in there to the land which I am giving to the sons of Israel.

On this day...
