Deuteronomy 32:1-31

32:1

Give ear
<0238> (8685)_,

O ye heavens
<08064>_,

and I will speak
<01696> (8762)_;

and hear
<08085> (8799)_,

O earth
<0776>_,

the words
<0561>

of my mouth
<06310>_.

32:2

My doctrine
<03948>

shall drop
<06201> (8799)

as the rain
<04306>_,

my speech
<0565>

shall distil
<05140> (8799)

as the dew
<02919>_,

as the small rain
<08164>

upon the tender herb
<01877>_,

and as the showers
<07241>

upon the grass
<06212>_:

32:3

Because I will publish
<07121> (8799)

the name
<08034>

of the LORD
<03068>_:

ascribe
<03051> (8798)

ye greatness
<01433>

unto our God
<0430>_.

32:4

[He is] the Rock
<06697>_,

his work
<06467>

[is] perfect
<08549>_:

for all his ways
<01870>

[are] judgment
<04941>_:

a God
<0410>

of truth
<0530>

and without iniquity
<05766>_,

just
<06662>

and right
<03477>

[is] he.

32:5

They have corrupted
<07843> (8765)

themselves, their spot
<03971>

[is] not [the spot] of his children
<01121>_:

[they are] a perverse
<06141>

and crooked
<06618>

generation
<01755>_.

{They have...: Heb. He hath corrupted to himself} {their...: or, that they are not his children, that is their blot}

32:6

Do ye thus requite
<01580> (8799)

the LORD
<03068>_,

O foolish
<05036>

people
<05971>

and unwise
<02450>_?

[is] not he thy father
<01>

[that] hath bought
<07069> (8804)

thee? hath he not made
<06213> (8804)

thee, and established
<03559> (8787)

thee?

32:7

Remember
<02142> (8798)

the days
<03117>

of old
<05769>_,

consider
<0995> (8798)

the years
<08141>

of many
<01755>

generations
<01755>_:

ask
<07592> (8798)

thy father
<01>_,

and he will shew
<05046> (8686)

thee; thy elders
<02205>_,

and they will tell
<0559> (8799)

thee. {many...: Heb. generation and generation}

32:8

When the most High
<05945>

divided
<05157> (0)

to the nations
<01471>

their inheritance
<05157> (8687)_,

when he separated
<06504> (8687)

the sons
<01121>

of Adam
<0120>_,

he set
<05324> (8686)

the bounds
<01367>

of the people
<05971>

according to the number
<04557>

of the children
<01121>

of Israel
<03478>_.

32:9

For the LORD'S
<03068>

portion
<02506>

[is] his people
<05971>_;

Jacob
<03290>

[is] the lot
<02256>

of his inheritance
<05159>_.

{lot: Heb. cord}

32:10

He found
<04672> (8799)

him in a desert
<04057>

land
<0776>_,

and in the waste
<08414>

howling
<03214>

wilderness
<03452>_;

he led him about
<05437> (8779)_,

he instructed
<0995> (8787)

him, he kept
<05341> (8799)

him as the apple
<0380>

of his eye
<05869>_.

{led: or, compassed}

32:11

As an eagle
<05404>

stirreth up
<05782> (8686)

her nest
<07064>_,

fluttereth
<07363> (8762)

over her young
<01469>_,

spreadeth abroad
<06566> (8799)

her wings
<03671>_,

taketh
<03947> (8799)

them, beareth
<05375> (8799)

them on her wings
<084>_:

32:12

[So] the LORD
<03068>

alone
<0910>

did lead
<05148> (8686)

him, and [there was] no strange
<05236>

god
<0410>

with him.

32:13

He made him ride
<07392> (8686)

on the high places
<01116>

of the earth
<0776>_,

that he might eat
<0398> (8799)

the increase
<08570>

of the fields
<07704>_;

and he made him to suck
<03243> (8686)

honey
<01706>

out of the rock
<05553>_,

and oil
<08081>

out of the flinty
<02496>

rock
<06697>_;

32:14

Butter
<02529>

of kine
<01241>_,

and milk
<02461>

of sheep
<06629>_,

with fat
<02459>

of lambs
<03733>_,

and rams
<0352>

of the breed
<01121>

of Bashan
<01316>_,

and goats
<06260>_,

with the fat
<02459>

of kidneys
<03629>

of wheat
<02406>_;

and thou didst drink
<08354> (8799)

the pure
<02561>

blood
<01818>

of the grape
<06025>_.

32:15

But Jeshurun
<03484>

waxed fat
<08080> (8799)_,

and kicked
<01163> (8799)_:

thou art waxen fat
<08080> (8804)_,

thou art grown thick
<05666> (8804)_,

thou art covered
<03780> (8804)

[with fatness]; then he forsook
<05203> (8799)

God
<0433>

[which] made
<06213> (8804)

him, and lightly esteemed
<05034> (8762)

the Rock
<06697>

of his salvation
<03444>_.

32:16

They provoked him to jealousy
<07065> (8686)

with strange
<02114> (8801)

[gods], with abominations
<08441>

provoked they him to anger
<03707> (8686)_.

32:17

They sacrificed
<02076> (8799)

unto devils
<07700>_,

not to God
<0433>_;

to gods
<0430>

whom they knew
<03045> (8804)

not, to new
<02319>

[gods that] came
<0935> (0)

newly
<07138>

up
<0935> (8804)_,

whom your fathers
<01>

feared
<08175> (8804)

not. {not to...: or, which were not God}

32:18

Of the Rock
<06697>

[that] begat
<03205> (8804)

thee thou art unmindful
<07876> (8799)_,

and hast forgotten
<07911> (8799)

God
<0410>

that formed
<02342> (8789)

thee.

32:19

And when the LORD
<03068>

saw
<07200> (8799)

[it], he abhorred
<05006> (8799)

[them], because of the provoking
<03708>

of his sons
<01121>_,

and of his daughters
<01323>_.

{abhorred: or, despised}

32:20

And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

I will hide
<05641> (8686)

my face
<06440>

from them, I will see
<07200> (8799)

what their end
<0319>

[shall be]: for they [are] a very froward
<08419>

generation
<01755>_,

children
<01121>

in whom [is] no faith
<0529>_.

32:21

They have moved me to jealousy
<07065> (8765)

with [that which is] not
<03808>

God
<0410>_;

they have provoked me to anger
<03707> (8765)

with their vanities
<01892>_:

and I will move them to jealousy
<07065> (8686)

with [those which are] not a people
<05971>_;

I will provoke them to anger
<03707> (8686)

with a foolish
<05036>

nation
<01471>_.

32:22

For a fire
<0784>

is kindled
<06919> (8804)

in mine anger
<0639>_,

and shall burn
<03344> (8799)

unto the lowest
<08482>

hell
<07585>_,

and shall consume
<0398> (8799)

the earth
<0776>

with her increase
<02981>_,

and set on fire
<03857> (8762)

the foundations
<04144>

of the mountains
<02022>_.

{shall burn: or, hath burned} {shall consume: or, hath consumed}

32:23

I will heap
<05595> (8686)

mischiefs
<07451>

upon them; I will spend
<03615> (8762)

mine arrows
<02671>

upon them.

32:24

[They shall be] burnt
<04198>

with hunger
<07458>_,

and devoured
<03898> (8803)

with burning heat
<07565>_,

and with bitter
<04815>

destruction
<06986>_:

I will also send
<07971> (8762)

the teeth
<08127>

of beasts
<0929>

upon them, with the poison
<02534>

of serpents
<02119> (8801)

of the dust
<06083>_.

{heat: Heb. coals}

32:25

The sword
<02719>

without
<02351>_,

and terror
<0367>

within
<02315>_,

shall destroy
<07921> (8762)

both the young man
<0970>

and the virgin
<01330>_,

the suckling
<03243> (8802)

[also] with the man
<0376>

of gray hairs
<07872>_.

{within: Heb. from the chambers} {destroy: Heb. bereave}

32:26

I said
<0559> (8804)_,

I would scatter them into corners
<06284> (8686)_,

I would make the remembrance
<02143>

of them to cease
<07673> (8686)

from among men
<0582>_:

32:27

Were it not
<03884>

that I feared
<01481> (8799)

the wrath
<03708>

of the enemy
<0341> (8802)_,

lest their adversaries
<06862>

should behave themselves strangely
<05234> (8762)_,

[and] lest they should say
<0559> (8799)_,

Our hand
<03027>

[is] high
<07311> (8804)_,

and the LORD
<03068>

hath not done
<06466> (8804)

all this. {Our...: or, Our high hand, and not the LORD hath done}

32:28

For they [are] a nation
<01471>

void
<06> (8802)

of counsel
<06098>_,

neither [is there any] understanding
<08394>

in them.

32:29

O that
<03863>

they were wise
<02449> (8804)_,

[that] they understood
<07919> (8686)

this, [that] they would consider
<0995> (8799)

their latter end
<0319>_!

32:30

How should one
<0259>

chase
<07291> (8799)

a thousand
<0505>_,

and two
<08147>

put ten
<07233>

thousand
<0505>

to flight
<05127> (8686)_,

except
<03808>

their Rock
<06697>

had sold
<04376> (8804)

them
<03588>_,

and the LORD
<03068>

had shut them up
<05462> (8689)_?

32:31

For their rock
<06697>

[is] not as our Rock
<06697>_,

even our enemies
<0341> (8802)

themselves [being] judges
<06414>_.
