Deuteronomy 32
1Give 2 Let the earth hear the words of my mouth. 1
2My 2 My speech will condense as the dew, 2 as the misty rain on the tender grass, 2 as the showers on the herb. 1
3For 2 Ascribe greatness to our God! 1
4The 2 for all his ways are just. 2 A God of faithfulness who does no wrong, 2 just and right is he. 1
5They 2 They are not his children, because of their defect. 2 They are a perverse and crooked generation. 1
6Is 2 foolish and unwise people? 1 Isn’t he your father who has bought you? 2 He has made you and established you. 1
7Remember 2 Consider the years of many generations. 1 Ask your father, and he will show you; 2 your elders, and they will tell you. 1
8When 2 when he separated the children of men, 1 he set the bounds of the peoples 2 according to the number of the children of Israel. 1
9For 2 Jacob is the lot of his inheritance. 1
10He 2 in the waste howling wilderness. 1 He surrounded him. 2 He cared for him. 2 He kept him as the apple of his eye. 1
11As 2 that flutters over her young, 1 he spread abroad his wings, 2 he took them, 2 he bore them on his feathers. 1
12The 2 There was no foreign god with him. 1
13He 2 He ate the increase of the field. 1 He caused him to suck honey out of the rock, 2 oil out of the flinty rock; 1
14butter 2 with fat of lambs, 2 rams of the breed of Bashan, and goats, 2 with the finest of the wheat. 2 From the blood of the grape, you drank wine. 1
15But Jeshurun 2 You have grown fat. 2 You have grown thick. 2 You have become sleek. 1 Then he abandoned God who made him, 2 and rejected the Rock of his salvation. 1
16They 2 They provoked him to anger with abominations. 1
17They 2 to gods that they didn’t know, 2 to new gods that came up recently, 2 which your fathers didn’t dread. 1
18Of 2 and have forgotten God who gave you birth. 1
19The 2 because of the provocation of his sons and his daughters. 1
20He 2 I will see what their end will be; 1 for they are a very perverse generation, 2 children in whom is no faithfulness. 1
21They 2 They have provoked me to anger with their vanities. 1 I will move them to jealousy with those who are not a people. 2 I will provoke them to anger with a foolish nation. 1
22For 2 that burns to the lowest Sheol, + 32:22 Sheol is the place of the dead. 2 devours the earth with its increase, 2 and sets the foundations of the mountains on fire. 1
23“ I 2 I will spend my arrows on them. 1
24They shall 2 and devoured with burning heat 2 and bitter destruction. 1 I will send the teeth of animals on them, 2 with the venom of vipers that glide in the dust. 1
25Outside 2 and in the rooms, 2 terror on both young man and virgin, 2 the nursing infant with the gray-haired man. 1
26I said that I would scatter them afar. 2 I would make their memory to cease from among men; 1
27were 2 lest their adversaries should judge wrongly, 2 lest they should say, ‘ Our hand is exalted; 2 the LORD has not done all this.’” 1
28For 2 There is no understanding in them. 1
29Oh 2 that they would consider their latter end! 1
30How 2 and two put ten thousand to flight, 1 unless their Rock had sold them, 2 and the LORD had delivered them up? 1
31For 2 even our enemies themselves concede. 1
32For 2 of the fields of Gomorrah. 1 Their grapes are poison grapes. 2 Their clusters are bitter. 1
33Their wine 2 the cruel venom of asps. 1
34“Isn’t this 2 sealed up among my treasures? 1
35Vengeance 2 at the time when their foot slides, 1 for the day of their calamity is at hand. 2 Their doom rushes at them.” 1
36For 2 and have compassion on his servants, 1 when he sees that their power is gone, 2 that there is no one remaining, shut up or left at large. 1
37He will say, “Where are 2 the rock in which they took refuge, 1
38which 2 and drank the wine of their drink offering? 1 Let them rise up and help you! 2 Let them be your protection. 1
39“ See 2 There is no god with me. 1 I kill and I make alive. 2 I wound and I heal. 2 There is no one who can deliver out of my hand. 1
40For 2 as I live forever, 1
41if I 2 my hand grasps it in judgment; 1 I will take vengeance on my adversaries, 2 and will repay those who hate me. 1
42I 2 My sword shall devour flesh with the blood of the slain and the captives, 2 from the head of the leaders of the enemy.” 1
43Rejoice 2 for he will avenge the blood of his servants. 2 He will take vengeance on his adversaries, 2 and will make atonement for his land and for his people. + 32:43 For this verse, LXX reads: Rejoice, you heavens, with him, and let all the angels of God worship him; rejoice you Gentiles, with his people, and let all the sons of God strengthen themselves in him; for he will avenge the blood of his sons, and he will give vengeance, and recompense justice to his enemies, and will reward them that hate him; and the Lord shall purge the land of his people.
