Is not He your Father who has bought you? He has made you and established you. <a href="/deuteronomy/32-7.htm">7</a>Remember the ancient days, Consider the years from generation to generation. Ask your father, and he will declare to you, Your elders, and they will speak to you. <a href="/deuteronomy/32-8.htm">8</a>When the Most High gave the nations their inheritance, When He separated the sons of <a href="#fn">[†]</a>man, He set the boundaries of the peoples According to the number of the <a href="#fn">[†]</a>sons of Israel. <a href="/deuteronomy/32-9.htm">9</a>For Yahweh’s portion is His people; Jacob is the allotment of His inheritance. <a href="/deuteronomy/32-10.htm">10</a>He found him in a desert land, And in the howling waste of a wilderness; He encircled him; He cared for him; He guarded him as the pupil of His eye. <a href="/deuteronomy/32-11.htm">11</a>Like an eagle that stirs up its nest, That hovers over its young, He spread His wings and caught them; He carried them on His pinions. <a href="/deuteronomy/32-12.htm">12</a>Yahweh alone guided him, And there was no foreign god with him. <a href="/deuteronomy/32-13.htm">13</a>He made him ride on the high places of the earth, And he ate the produce of the field; And He made him suck honey from the rock, And oil from the flinty rock, <a href="/deuteronomy/32-14.htm">14</a>Curds of cows, and milk of the flock, With fat of lambs, And rams, the breed of Bashan, and goats, With the finest of the wheat— And of the blood of grapes you drank wine. <a href="/deuteronomy/32-15.htm">15</a>“But <a href="#fn">[†]</a>Jeshurun grew fat and kicked— You grew fat, thick, and sleek— Then he abandoned God who made him, And treated the Rock of his salvation with wicked foolishness. <a href="/deuteronomy/32-16.htm">16</a>They made Him jealous with strange gods; With abominations they provoked Him to anger. <a href="/deuteronomy/32-17.htm">17</a>They sacrificed to demons who were not God, To gods whom they have not known, New gods who came lately, Whom your fathers did not dread. <a href="/deuteronomy/32-18.htm">18</a>You neglected the Rock who begot you, And forgot the God who brought you forth. <a href="/deuteronomy/32-19.htm">19</a>“And Yahweh saw this and spurned them Because of the provocation of His sons and daughters. <a href="/deuteronomy/32-20.htm">20</a>Then He said, ‘I will hide My face from them; I will see what their end shall be; For they are a perverse generation, Sons in whom is no faithfulness. <a href="/deuteronomy/32-21.htm">21</a>They have made Me jealous with what is not God; They have provoked Me to anger with their <a href="#fn">[†]</a>idols.

Let them rise up and help you, Let them be your hiding place! <a href="/deuteronomy/32-39.htm">39</a>See now that I, I am He, And there is no god besides Me; It is I who put to death and give life. I have wounded, and it is I who heal, And there is no one who can deliver from My hand. <a href="/deuteronomy/32-40.htm">40</a>Indeed, I lift up My hand to heaven, And say, as I live forever, <a href="/deuteronomy/32-41.htm">41</a>If I sharpen My <a href="#fn">[†]</a>flashing sword, And My hand takes hold on judgment, I will render vengeance on My adversaries, And I will repay those who hate Me. <a href="/deuteronomy/32-42.htm">42</a>I will make My arrows drunk with blood, And My sword will devour flesh, With the blood of the slain and the captives, From the long-haired <a href="#fn">[†]</a>leaders of the enemy.’ <a href="/deuteronomy/32-43.htm">43</a>O nations, cause His people to shout for joy; For He will avenge the blood of His slaves, And He will render vengeance on His adversaries, And He will atone for His land and His people.” <a href="/deuteronomy/32-44.htm">44</a>Then Moses came and spoke all the words of this song in the hearing of the people, he and <a href="#fn">[†]</a>Joshua the son of Nun. <a href="/deuteronomy/32-45.htm">45</a>Then Moses finished speaking all these words to all Israel, <a href="/deuteronomy/32-46.htm">46</a>and he said to them, “Place in your heart all the words with which I am warning you today, which you shall command your sons to be careful to do, even all the words of this law. <a href="/deuteronomy/32-47.htm">47</a>For it is not an idle word for you; indeed it is your life.
