05_DEU_32_01 Give ear, O ye heavens, and I will speak; and hear, O earth, the words of my mouth.
05_DEU_32_02 My doctrine shall drop as the rain, my speech shall distil as the dew, as the small rain upon the tender herb, and as the showers upon the grass:
05_DEU_32_03 Because I will publish the name of the LORD: ascribe ye greatness unto our God.
05_DEU_32_04 [He is] the Rock, his work [is] perfect: for all his ways [are] judgment: a God of truth and without iniquity, just and right [is] he.
05_DEU_32_05 They have corrupted themselves, their spot [is] not [the spot] of his children: [they are] a perverse and crooked generation.
05_DEU_32_06 Do ye thus requite the LORD, O foolish people and unwise? [is] not he thy father [that] hath bought thee? hath he not made thee, and established thee?
05_DEU_32_07 Remember the days of old, consider the years of many generations: ask thy father, and he will show thee; thy elders, and they will tell thee.
05_DEU_32_08 When the Most High divided to the nations their inheritance, when he separated the sons of Adam, he set the bounds of the people according to the number of the children of Israel.
05_DEU_32_09 For the LORD'S portion [is] his people; Jacob [is] the lot of his inheritance.
05_DEU_32_10 He found him in a desert land, and in the waste howling wilderness; he led him about, he instructed him, he kept him as the apple of his eye.
05_DEU_32_11 As an eagle stirreth up her nest, fluttereth over her young, spreadeth abroad her wings, taketh them, beareth them on her wings:
05_DEU_32_12 [So] the LORD alone did lead him, and [there was] no strange god with him.
05_DEU_32_13 He made him ride on the high places of the earth, that he might eat the increase of the fields; and he made him to suck honey out of the rock, and oil out of the flinty rock;
05_DEU_32_14 Butter of kine, and milk of sheep, with fat of lambs, and rams of the breed of Bashan, and goats, with the fat of kidneys of wheat; and thou didst drink the pure blood of the grape.
05_DEU_32_15 But Jeshurun waxed fat, and kicked: thou art waxen fat, thou art grown thick, thou art covered [with fatness]; then he forsook God [which] made him, and lightly esteemed the Rock of his salvation.
05_DEU_32_16 They provoked him to jealousy with strange [gods], with abominations provoked they him to anger.
05_DEU_32_17 They sacrificed unto devils, not to God; to gods whom they knew not, to new [gods that] came newly up, whom your fathers feared not.
05_DEU_32_18 Of the Rock [that] begat thee thou art unmindful, and hast forgotten God that formed thee.
05_DEU_32_19 And when the LORD saw [it], he abhorred [them], because of the provoking of his sons, and of his daughters.
05_DEU_32_20 And he said, I will hide my face from them, I will see what their end [shall be]: for they [are] a very froward generation, children in whom [is] no faith.
05_DEU_32_21 They have moved me to jealousy with [that which is] not God; they have provoked me to anger with their vanities: and I will move them to jealousy with [those which are] not a people; I will provoke them to anger with a foolish nation.
05_DEU_32_22 For a fire is kindled in mine anger, and shall burn unto the lowest hell, and shall consume the earth with her increase, and set on fire the foundations of the mountains.
05_DEU_32_23 I will heap mischiefs upon them; I will spend mine arrows upon them.
05_DEU_32_24 [They shall be] burnt with hunger, and devoured with burning heat, and with bitter destruction: I will also send the teeth of beasts upon them, with the poison of serpents of the dust.
05_DEU_32_25 The sword without, and terror within, shall destroy both the young man and the virgin, the suckling [also] with the man of gray hairs.
05_DEU_32_26 I said, I would scatter them into corners, I would make the remembrance of them to cease from among men:
05_DEU_32_27 Were it not that I feared the wrath of the enemy, lest their adversaries should behave themselves strangely, [and] lest they should say, Our hand [is] high, and the LORD hath not done all this.
05_DEU_32_28 For they [are] a nation void of counsel, neither [is there any] understanding in them.
05_DEU_32_29 O that they were wise, [that] they understood this, [that] they would consider their latter end!
05_DEU_32_30 How should one chase a thousand, and two put ten thousand to flight, except their Rock had sold them, and the LORD had shut them up?
05_DEU_32_31 For their rock [is] not as our Rock, even our enemies themselves [being] judges.
05_DEU_32_32 For their vine [is] of the vine of Sodom, and of the fields of Gomorrah: their grapes [are] grapes of gall, their clusters [are] bitter:
05_DEU_32_33 Their wine [is] the poison of dragons, and the cruel venom of asps.
05_DEU_32_34 [Is] not this laid up in store with me, [and] sealed up among my treasures?
05_DEU_32_35 To me [belongeth] vengeance, and recompense; their foot shall slide in [due] time: for the day of their calamity [is] at hand, and the things that shall come upon them make haste.
05_DEU_32_36 For the LORD shall judge his people, and repent himself for his servants, when he seeth that [their] power is gone, and [there is] none shut up, or left.
05_DEU_32_37 And he shall say, Where [are] their gods, [their] rock in whom they trusted,
05_DEU_32_38 Which did eat the fat of their sacrifices, [and] drank the wine of their drink offerings? let them rise up and help you, [and] be your protection.
05_DEU_32_39 See now that I, [even] I, [am] he, and [there is] no god with me: I kill, and I make alive; I wound, and I heal: neither [is there any] that can deliver out of my hand.
05_DEU_32_40 For I lift up my hand to heaven, and say, I live for ever.
05_DEU_32_41 If I whet my glittering sword, and mine hand take hold on judgment; I will render vengeance to mine enemies, and will reward them that hate me.
05_DEU_32_42 I will make mine arrows drunk with blood, and my sword shall devour flesh; [and that] with the blood of the slain and of the captives, from the beginning of revengers upon the enemy.
05_DEU_32_43 Rejoice, O ye nations, [with] his people: for he will avenge the blood of his servants, and will render vengeance to his adversaries, and will be merciful unto his land, [and] to his people.
05_DEU_32_44 And Moses came and spake all the words of this song in the ears of the people, he, and Hoshea the son of Nun.
05_DEU_32_45 And Moses made an end of speaking all these words to all Israel:
05_DEU_32_46 And he said unto them, Set your hearts unto all the words which I testify among you this day, which ye shall command your children to observe to do, all the words of this law.
05_DEU_32_47 For it [is] not a vain thing for you; because it [is] your life: and through this thing ye shall prolong [your] days in the land, whither ye go over Jordan to possess it.
05_DEU_32_48 And the LORD spake unto Moses that selfsame day, saying,
05_DEU_32_49 Get thee up into this mountain Abarim, [unto] mount Nebo, which [is] in the land of Moab, that [is] over against Jericho; and behold the land of Canaan, which I give unto the children of Israel for a possession:
05_DEU_32_50 And die in the mount whither thou goest up, and be gathered unto thy people; as Aaron thy brother died in mount Hor, and was gathered unto his people:
05_DEU_32_51 Because ye trespassed against me among the children of Israel at the waters of Meribah Kadesh, in the wilderness of Zin; because ye sanctified me not in the midst of the children of Israel.
05_DEU_32_52 Yet thou shalt see the land before [thee]; but thou shalt not go thither unto the land which I give the children of Israel.
