Deuteronomy 32:5-18

5His people have acted corruptlyH7843 toward Him; the blemishH3971 on them is notH3808 that of His childrenH1121, but of a perverseH6141 and crookedH6618 generationH1755.16Is thisH2063 how you repayH1580 the LORDH3068, O foolishH5036 and senselessH3808 H2450 peopleH5971? Is HeH1931 notH3808 your FatherH1 and CreatorH7069? Has He notH1931 made youH6213 and established youH3559?7RememberH2142 the daysH3117 of oldH5769; considerH995 the yearsH8141 longH1755 pastH1755. AskH7592 your fatherH1, and he will tell youH5046, your eldersH2205, and they will informH559 you.8When the Most HighH5945 gave the nationsH1471 their inheritanceH5157, when He dividedH6504 the sonsH1121 of manH120, He setH5324 the boundariesH1367 of the peoplesH5971 according to the numberH4557 of the sonsH1121 of GodH3478.29ButH3588 the LORD’sH3068 portionH2506 is His peopleH5971, JacobH3290 His allottedH2256 inheritanceH5159.

10He found himH4672 in a desertH4057 landH776,in a barrenH8414, howlingH3214 wildernessH3452;He surrounded himH5437, He instructed himH995,He guarded himH5341 as the appleH380 3 of His eyeH5869.11As an eagleH5404 stirs upH5782 its nestH7064and hoversH7363 overH5921 its youngH1469,He spreadH6566 His wingsH3671 to catch themH3947and carried themH5375 onH5921 His pinionsH84.412The LORDH3068 aloneH910 led himH5148,and noH369 foreignH5236 godH410 was with himH5973.13He made him rideH7392 onH5921 the heightsH1116 of the landH776and fed himH398 the produceH8570 of the fieldH7704.He nourished himH3243 with honeyH1706 from the rockH5553and oilH8081 from the flintyH2496 cragH6697,14with curdsH2529 from the herdH1241 and milkH2461 from the flockH6629,withH5973 the fatH2459 of lambsH3733,with ramsH352 from BashanH1121 H1316, and goatsH6260,withH5973 the choicestH2459 grainsH3629 of wheatH2406.From the juiceH1818 of the finest grapesH6025you drankH8354 the wineH2561.

15But JeshurunH3484 5 grew fatH8080 and kickedH1163—becoming fatH8080, bloatedH5666, and gorgedH3780.He abandonedH5203 the GodH433 who made himH6213and scornedH5034 the RockH6697 of his salvationH3444.16They provoked His jealousyH7065 with foreign godsH2114;they enraged HimH3707 with abominationsH8441.17They sacrificedH2076 to demonsH7700, notH3808 to GodH433,to godsH430 they had notH3808 knownH3045,to newly arrivedH2319 H7138 H935 gods,which your fathersH1 did notH3808 fearH8175.18You ignoredH7876 the RockH6697 who brought you forthH3205;you forgotH7911 the GodH410 who gave you birthH2342.
