Deuteronomy 32:1-3

Invocation of Witnesses

32:1 Listen, O heavens, and I will speak;

hear, O earth, the words of my mouth.

32:2 My teaching will drop like the rain,

my sayings will drip like the dew,

as rain drops upon the grass,

and showers upon new growth.

32:3 For I will proclaim the name of the Lord;

you must acknowledge the greatness of our God.


tn Or “mist,” “light drizzle.” In some contexts the term appears to refer to light rain, rather than dew.

tc Smr and Tg read “in the name.”
