Deuteronomy 32:12-23
-
12 So the LORD alone did lead him, and there was no strange god with him.
-
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;
-
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.
-
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.
-
16 They provoked him to jealousy with strange gods, with abominations provoked they him to anger.
-
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.
-
18 Of the Rock that begat thee thou art unmindful, and hast forgotten God that formed thee.
-
19 And when the LORD saw it, he abhorred them, because of the provoking of his sons, and of his daughters.
-
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.
-
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.
-
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.
-
23 I will heap mischiefs upon them; I will spend mine arrows upon them.
