Deuteronomy 32:1-7

1Pay attention, heavens, and I will speak; listen, earth, to the words from my mouth.

2Let my teaching fall like rain and my word settle like dew, like gentle rain on new grass and showers on tender plants.

3For I will proclaim the Lord’s name. Declare the greatness of our God!

4The Rock  — his work is perfect; all his ways are just. A faithful God, without bias, he is righteous and true.

5His people have acted corruptly toward him; this is their defect  — they are not his children but a devious and crooked generation.

6Is this how you repay the Lord, you foolish and senseless people? Isn’t he your Father and Creator? Didn’t he make you and sustain you?

7Remember the days of old; consider the years of past generations. Ask your father, and he will tell you, your elders, and they will teach you.
