Deuteronomy 32 :: Hebrew Names Version (HNV)

The Song of Moses

Deu 32:1Give ear, you heavens, and I will speak; Let the eretz hear the words of my mouth.

Deu 32:2My doctrine shall drop as the rain; My speech shall condense as the dew, As the small rain on the tender grass, As the showers on the herb.

Deu 32:3

Deu 32:3For I will proclaim the name of the LORD: Ascribe greatness to our God.

Deu 32:4

Deu 32:4The Rock, his work is perfect; For all his ways are justice: A God of faithfulness and without iniquity, Just and right is he.

Deu 32:5

Deu 32:5They have dealt corruptly with him, they are not his children, it is their blemish; They are a perverse and crooked generation.

Deu 32:6

Deu 32:6Do you thus requite the LORD, Foolish people and unwise? Isn't he your father who has bought you? He has made you, and established you.

Deu 32:7

Deu 32:7Remember the days of old, Consider the years of many generations: Ask your father, and he will show you; Your Zakenim, and they will tell you.

Deu 32:8

Deu 32:8When Ha`Elyon gave to the nations their inheritance, When he separated the children of men, He set the bounds of the peoples According to the number of the children of Yisra'el.

Deu 32:9

Deu 32:9For the LORD's portion is his people; Ya`akov is the lot of his inheritance.

Deu 32:10

Deu 32:10He found him in a desert land, In the waste howling wilderness; He compassed him about, he cared for him, He kept him as the apple of his eye.

Deu 32:11

Deu 32:11As an eagle that stirs up her nest, That flutters over her young, He spread abroad his wings, he took them, He bore them on his feathers.

Deu 32:12

Deu 32:12The LORD alone did lead him, There was no foreign god with him.

Deu 32:13

Deu 32:13He made him ride on the high places of the eretz, He ate the increase of the field; He made him to suck honey out of the rock, Oil out of the flinty rock;

Deu 32:14

Deu 32:14Butter of the herd, and milk of the flock, With fat of lambs, Rams of the breed of Bashan, and goats, With the finest of the wheat; Of the blood of the grape you drank wine.

Deu 32:15

Deu 32:15But Yeshurun grew fat, and kicked: You have grown fat, you are grown thick, you are become sleek; Then he forsook God who made him, Lightly esteemed the Rock of his salvation.

Deu 32:16

Deu 32:16They moved him to jealousy with strange gods; With abominations provoked they him to anger.

Deu 32:17

Deu 32:17They sacrificed to demons, which were no God, To gods that they didn't know, To new gods that came up of late, Which your fathers didn't dread.

Deu 32:18

Deu 32:18Of the Rock that became your father, you are unmindful, Have forgotten God who gave you birth.

Deu 32:19

Deu 32:19The LORD saw it, and abhorred them, Because of the provocation of his sons and his daughters.

Deu 32:20

Deu 32:20He said, I will hide my face from them, I will see what their end shall be: For they are a very perverse generation, Children in whom is no faithfulness.

Deu 32:21

Deu 32:21They have moved me to jealousy with that which is not God; They have provoked me to anger with their vanities: I will move them to jealousy with those who are not a people; I will provoke them to anger with a foolish nation.

Deu 32:22

Deu 32:22For a fire is kindled in my anger, Burns to the lowest She'ol, Devours the eretz with its increase, Sets on fire the foundations of the mountains.

Deu 32:23

Deu 32:23I will heap evils on them; I will spend my arrows on them:

Deu 32:24

Deu 32:24They shall be wasted with hunger, and devoured with burning heat Bitter destruction; The teeth of animals will I send on them, With the poison of crawling things of the dust.

Deu 32:25

Deu 32:25Outside shall the sword bereave, In the chambers terror; It shall destroy both young man and virgin, The suckling with the man of gray hairs.

Deu 32:26

Deu 32:26I said, I would scatter them afar, I would make the memory of them to cease from among men;

Deu 32:27

Deu 32:27Were it not that I feared the provocation of the enemy, Lest their adversaries should judge amiss, Lest they should say, Our hand is exalted, The LORD has not done all this.

Deu 32:28

Deu 32:28For they are a nation void of counsel, There is no understanding in them.

Deu 32:29

Deu 32:29Oh that they were wise, that they understood this, That they would consider their latter end!

Deu 32:30

Deu 32:30How should one chase a thousand, Two put ten thousand to flight, Except their Rock had sold them, The LORD had delivered them up?

Deu 32:31

Deu 32:31For their rock is not as our Rock, Even our enemies themselves being judges.

Deu 32:32

Deu 32:32For their vine is of the vine of Sedom, Of the fields of `Amorah: Their grapes are grapes of gall, Their clusters are bitter:

Deu 32:33

Deu 32:33Their wine is the poison of serpents, The cruel venom of asps.

Deu 32:34

Deu 32:34Isn't this laid up in store with me, Sealed up among my treasures?

Deu 32:35

Deu 32:35Vengeance is mine, and recompense, At the time when their foot shall slide: For the day of their calamity is at hand, The things that are to come on them shall make haste.

Deu 32:36

Deu 32:36For the LORD will judge his people, Repent himself for his servants; When he sees that their power is gone, There is none remaining, shut up or left at large.

Deu 32:37

Deu 32:37He will say, Where are their gods, The rock in which they took refuge;

Deu 32:38

Deu 32:38Which ate the fat of their sacrifices, And drank the wine of their drink-offering? Let them rise up and help you, Let them be your protection.

Deu 32:39

Deu 32:39See now that I, even I, am he, There is no god with me: I kill, and I make alive; I wound, and I heal; There is none who can deliver out of my hand.

Deu 32:40

Deu 32:40For I lift up my hand to heaven, And say, As I live forever,

Deu 32:41

Deu 32:41If I whet my glittering sword, My hand take hold on judgment; I will render vengeance to my adversaries, Will recompense those who hate me.

Deu 32:42

Deu 32:42I will make my arrows drunk with blood, My sword shall devour flesh; With the blood of the slain and the captives, From the head of the leaders of the enemy.

Deu 32:43

Deu 32:43Rejoice, you nations, with his people: For he will avenge the blood of his servants, Will render vengeance to his adversaries, Will make expiation for his land, for his people.

Deu 32:44

Deu 32:44Moshe came and spoke all the words of this song in the ears of the people, he and Yehoshua the son of Nun.

Deu 32:45

Deu 32:45Moshe made an end of speaking all these words to all Yisra'el;

Deu 32:46

Deu 32:46He said to them, Set your heart to all the words which I testify to you this day, which you shall command your children to observe to do, even all the words of this law.

Deu 32:47

Deu 32:47For it is no vain thing for you; because it is your life, and through this thing you shall prolong your days in the land, where you go over the Yarden to possess it.

Deu 32:48

Deu 32:48The LORD spoke to Moshe that same day, saying,

Deu 32:49

Deu 32:49Go up into this mountain of `Avarimen, to Mount Nevo, which is in the land of Mo'av, that is over against Yericho; and see the land of Kana`an, which I give to the children of Yisra'el for a possession;

Deu 32:50

Deu 32:50and die on the mountain where you go up, and be gathered to your people, as Aharon your brother died on Mount Hor, and was gathered to his people:

Deu 32:51

Deu 32:51because you trespassed against me in the midst of the children of Yisra'el at the waters of Merivah of Kadesh, in the wilderness of Tzin; because you didn't sanctify me in the midst of the children of Yisra'el.

Deu 32:52

Deu 32:52For you shall see the land before you; but you shall not go there into the land which I give the children of Yisra'el.
