Deuteronomy 32:7-18

7RememberH2142 the daysH3117 of oldH5769, considerH995 the yearsH8141 of manyH1755 generationsH1755: askH7592 thy fatherH1, and he will shewH5046 thee; thy eldersH2205, and they will tellH559 thee.1 8When the most HighH5945 dividedH5157 to the nationsH1471 their inheritanceH5157, when he separatedH6504 the sonsH1121 of AdamH120, he setH5324 the boundsH1367 of the peopleH5971 according to the numberH4557 of the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478. 9For Yhwh'sH3068 portionH2506 is his peopleH5971; JacobH3290 is the lotH2256 of his inheritanceH5159.2 10He foundH4672 him in a desertH4057 landH776, and in the wasteH8414 howlingH3214 wildernessH3452; he led him aboutH5437, he instructedH995 him, he keptH5341 him as the appleH380 of his eyeH5869.3 11As an eagleH5404 stirreth upH5782 her nestH7064, flutterethH7363 over her youngH1469, spreadeth abroadH6566 her wingsH3671, takethH3947 them, bearethH5375 them on her wingsH84: 12So YhwhH3068 aloneH910 did leadH5148 him, and there was no strangeH5236 godH410 with him. 13He made him rideH7392 on the high placesH1116 of the earthH776, that he might eatH398 the increaseH8570 of the fieldsH7704; and he made him to suckH3243 honeyH1706 out of the rockH5553, and oilH8081 out of the flintyH2496 rockH6697; 14ButterH2529 of kineH1241, and milkH2461 of sheepH6629, with fatH2459 of lambsH3733, and ramsH352 of the breedH1121 of BashanH1316, and goatsH6260, with the fatH2459 of kidneysH3629 of wheatH2406; and thou didst drinkH8354 the pureH2561 bloodH1818 of the grapeH6025.

15But JeshurunH3484 waxed fatH8080, and kickedH1163: thou art waxen fatH8080, thou art grown thickH5666, thou art coveredH3780 with fatness; then he forsookH5203 GodH433 which madeH6213 him, and lightly esteemedH5034 the RockH6697 of his salvationH3444. 16They provoked him to jealousyH7065 with strangeH2114 gods, with abominationsH8441 provoked they him to angerH3707. 17They sacrificedH2076 unto devilsH7700, not to GodH433; to godsH430 whom they knewH3045 not, to newH2319 gods that cameH935 newlyH7138 upH935, whom your fathersH1 fearedH8175 not.4 18Of the RockH6697 that begatH3205 thee thou art unmindfulH7876, and hast forgottenH7911 GodH410 that formedH2342 thee.
