Deuteronomy 32:4-18

4He is the Rock, his works are perfect, and all his ways are just. A faithful God who does no wrong, upright and just is he.

5They are corrupt and not his children; to their shame they are a warped and crooked generation.

6Is this the way you repay the Lord, you foolish and unwise people? Is he not your Father, your Creator, who made you and formed you?

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

8When the Most High gave the nations their inheritance, when he divided all mankind, he set up boundaries for the peoples according to the number of the sons of Israel.

9For the Lord’s portion is his people, Jacob his allotted inheritance.

10In a desert land he found him, in a barren and howling waste. He shielded him and cared for him; he guarded him as the apple of his eye,

11like an eagle that stirs up its nest and hovers over its young, that spreads its wings to catch them and carries them aloft.

12The Lord alone led him; no foreign god was with him.

13He made him ride on the heights of the land and fed him with the fruit of the fields. He nourished him with honey from the rock, and with oil from the flinty crag,

14with curds and milk from herd and flock and with fattened lambs and goats, with choice rams of Bashan and the finest kernels of wheat. You drank the foaming blood of the grape.

15Jeshurun grew fat and kicked; filled with food, they became heavy and sleek. They abandoned the God who made them and rejected the Rock their Savior.

16They made him jealous with their foreign gods and angered him with their detestable idols.

17They sacrificed to false gods, which are not God— gods they had not known, gods that recently appeared, gods your ancestors did not fear.

18You deserted the Rock, who fathered you; you forgot the God who gave you birth.
