WEBVTT 00:00.000 --> 00:06.980 Chapter 32 Give ear, O ye heavens, and I will speak. 00:07.580 --> 00:11.020 And hear, O earth, the words of my mouth. 00:11.980 --> 00:17.960 My doctrine shall drop as the rain, my speech shall distill as the dew, 00:18.760 --> 00:24.700 as the small rain upon the tender herb, and as the showers upon the grass. 00:25.480 --> 00:31.020 Because I will publish the name of the Lord, ascribe ye greatness unto our God. 00:31.880 --> 00:37.180 He is the Rock, His work is perfect, for all His ways are judgment. 00:38.100 --> 00:43.460 A God of truth and without iniquity, just and right is He. 00:44.320 --> 00:45.940 They have corrupted themselves. 00:46.780 --> 00:49.580 Their spot is not the spot of His children. 00:50.200 --> 00:52.860 They are a perverse and crooked generation. 00:54.020 --> 00:58.600 Do ye thus requite the Lord, O foolish people, and unwise? 00:59.320 --> 01:02.060 Is not He thy Father that hath brought thee? 01:02.600 --> 01:05.480 Hath He not made thee and established thee? 01:06.560 --> 01:08.340 Remember the days of old. 01:08.960 --> 01:11.160 Consider the years of many generations. 01:11.700 --> 01:14.140 Ask thy father, and he will show thee. 01:14.600 --> 01:16.620 Thy elders, and they will tell thee. 01:17.180 --> 01:22.340 When the Most High divided to the nations their inheritance, when He separated the 01:22.340 --> 01:27.000 sons of Adam, He set the bounds of the people according to the number of the 01:27.000 --> 01:27.920 children of Israel. 01:28.880 --> 01:31.120 For the Lord's portion is His people. 01:31.980 --> 01:33.880 Jacob is the lot of His inheritance. 01:34.740 --> 01:39.540 He found Him in a desert land, and in the waste, howling wilderness. 01:39.920 --> 01:41.200 He led Him about. 01:41.540 --> 01:42.580 He instructed Him. 01:42.880 --> 01:45.400 He kept Him as the apple of His eye. 01:46.060 --> 01:51.240 As an eagle stirreth up her nest, fluttereth over her young, spreadeth 01:51.240 --> 01:55.540 abroad her wings, taketh them, beareth them on her wings. 01:56.360 --> 02:02.060 So the Lord alone did lead Him, and there was no strange God with Him. 02:02.800 --> 02:08.240 He made Him ride on the high places of the earth, that He might eat the increase of 02:08.240 --> 02:08.780 the fields. 02:09.340 --> 02:14.760 And He made Him to suck honey out of the rock, and oil out of the flinty rock, 02:15.860 --> 02:21.560 butter of kind, and milk of sheep, with fat of lambs and rams of the breed of 02:21.560 --> 02:28.220 Bashan, and goats, with the fat of kidneys of wheat, and now didst drink the pure 02:28.220 --> 02:29.160 blood of the grape. 02:30.380 --> 02:33.300 But Jeshurun waxed fat, and kicked. 02:34.040 --> 02:38.720 Thou art waxen fat, thou art grown thick, thou art covered with fatness. 02:39.440 --> 02:44.180 Then He forsook God which made Him, and lightly esteemed the rock of His 02:44.180 --> 02:44.700 salvation. 02:45.860 --> 02:51.280 They provoked Him to jealousy with strange gods, with abominations provoked they Him 02:51.280 --> 02:51.880 to anger. 02:53.140 --> 02:59.560 They sacrificed unto devils, not to God, to gods whom they knew not, to new gods 02:59.560 --> 03:03.220 that came newly up, whom your fathers feared not. 03:04.040 --> 03:09.760 Of the rock that begat thee, thou art unmindful, and hast forgotten God that 03:09.760 --> 03:10.340 formed thee. 03:11.140 --> 03:15.820 And when the Lord saw it, He abhorred them, because of the provoking of His sons 03:15.820 --> 03:16.640 and of His daughters. 03:16.640 --> 03:20.360 And He said, I will hide My face from them. 03:20.760 --> 03:23.220 I will see what their end shall be. 03:23.860 --> 03:28.900 For they are a very froward generation, children in whom is no faith. 03:29.820 --> 03:33.760 They have moved Me to jealousy with that which is not God. 03:34.180 --> 03:37.300 They have provoked Me to anger with their vanities. 03:38.100 --> 03:42.160 And I will move them to jealousy with those which are not a people. 03:42.920 --> 03:45.920 I will provoke them to anger with a foolish nation. 03:45.920 --> 03:51.560 For a fire is kindled in Mine anger, and shall burn unto the lowest hell, 03:52.040 --> 03:56.940 and shall consume the earth with her increase, and set on fire the foundations 03:56.940 --> 03:57.700 of the mountains. 03:58.500 --> 04:00.880 I will heap mischiefs upon them. 04:01.300 --> 04:03.360 I will spend Mine arrows upon them. 04:04.000 --> 04:08.620 They shall be burnt with hunger, and devoured with burning heat, 04:09.140 --> 04:10.480 and with bitter destruction. 04:11.280 --> 04:16.840 I will also send the teeth of beasts upon them, with the poison of serpents, 04:17.200 --> 04:17.880 of the dust. 04:18.860 --> 04:24.140 The sword without, and terror within, shall destroy both the young man and the 04:24.140 --> 04:27.620 virgin, the suckling also with the man of gray hairs. 04:28.240 --> 04:31.560 I said, I would scatter them into corners. 04:32.200 --> 04:35.700 I would make the remembrance of them to cease from among men. 04:37.080 --> 04:42.040 Were it not that I feared the wrath of the enemy, lest their adversaries should 04:42.040 --> 04:48.840 behave themselves strangely, and lest they should say, Our hand is high, and the Lord 04:48.840 --> 04:50.320 hath not done all this. 04:51.200 --> 04:53.780 For they are a nation void of counsel. 04:55.180 --> 04:57.340 Neither is there any understanding in them. 04:58.240 --> 05:03.240 Oh, that they were wise, that they understood this, that they would consider 05:03.240 --> 05:04.400 their latter end. 05:05.320 --> 05:09.760 How should one chase a thousand, and two put ten thousand to flight, 05:10.080 --> 05:14.780 except their rock had sold them, and the Lord had shut them up. 05:15.760 --> 05:20.420 For their rock is not as our rock, even our enemies themselves being judges. 05:21.260 --> 05:26.000 For their vine is of the vine of Sodom, and of the fields of Gomorrah. 05:26.540 --> 05:28.680 Their grapes are grapes of Gaul. 05:29.140 --> 05:30.600 Their clusters are bitter. 05:31.540 --> 05:36.480 Their wine is the poison of dragons, and the cruel venom of asps. 05:37.340 --> 05:41.780 Is not this laid up in store with me, and sealed up among my treasures? 05:42.380 --> 05:46.340 To me belongeth vengeance and recompense. 05:47.000 --> 05:52.320 Their foot shall slide in due time, for the day of their calamity is at hand, 05:52.560 --> 05:55.640 and the things that shall come upon them make haste. 05:55.760 --> 06:00.380 For the Lord shall judge his people, and repent himself for his servants, 06:00.860 --> 06:06.140 when he seeth that their power is gone, and there is none shut up or left. 06:06.780 --> 06:12.440 And he shall say, Where are their gods, their rock in whom they trusted, 06:13.200 --> 06:17.860 which did eat the fat of their sacrifices, and drank the wine of their drink 06:17.860 --> 06:18.300 offerings? 06:19.620 --> 06:23.360 Let them rise up and help you, and be your protection. 06:24.380 --> 06:30.400 See now, that I, even I, am he, and there is no god with me. 06:30.900 --> 06:33.200 I kill, and I make alive. 06:33.620 --> 06:35.500 I wound, and I heal. 06:36.000 --> 06:39.840 Neither is there any that can deliver out of my hand. 06:40.800 --> 06:45.940 For I lift up my hand to heaven, and say, I live for ever. 06:47.200 --> 06:53.580 If I wet my glittering sword, and mine hand take hold on judgment, I will render 06:53.580 --> 06:57.320 vengeance to mine enemies, and will reward them that hate me. 06:57.900 --> 07:02.980 I will make mine arrows drunk with blood, and my sword shall devour flesh, 07:02.980 --> 07:08.260 and that with the blood of the slain and of the captives, from the beginning of 07:08.260 --> 07:09.640 revenge is upon the enemy. 07:11.040 --> 07:17.060 Rejoice, O ye nations, with his people, for he will avenge the blood of his 07:17.060 --> 07:23.640 servants, and will render vengeance to his adversaries, and will be merciful unto his 07:23.640 --> 07:25.680 land, and to his people. 07:26.080 --> 07:30.260 And Moses came and spake all the words of this song in the ears of the people, 07:30.540 --> 07:32.240 he and Hosea the son of Nun. 07:32.900 --> 07:37.400 And Moses made an end of speaking all these words to all Israel, and he said 07:37.400 --> 07:42.680 unto them, Set your hearts unto all the words which I testify among you this day, 07:43.640 --> 07:49.040 which ye shall command your children to observe to do, all the words of this law. 07:50.260 --> 07:56.480 For it is not a vain thing for you, because it is your life, and through this 07:56.480 --> 08:01.880 thing ye shall prolong your days in the land, whither ye go over Jordan to possess 08:01.880 --> 08:02.160 it. 08:02.160 --> 08:06.860 And the Lord spake unto Moses that selfsame day, saying, Get thee up into 08:06.860 --> 08:12.920 this mountain, Abiram, unto Mount Nebo, which is in the land of Moab, that is over 08:12.920 --> 08:17.900 against Jericho, and behold the land of Canaan, which I give unto the children of 08:17.900 --> 08:19.020 Israel for a possession. 08:19.840 --> 08:24.180 And die in the mount whither thou goest up, and be gathered unto thy people, 08:24.500 --> 08:28.700 as Aaron thy brother died in Mount Hor, and was gathered unto his people. 08:29.520 --> 08:33.980 Because ye trespassed against me among the children of Israel at the waters of 08:33.980 --> 08:39.620 Meribachadish in the wilderness of Zin, because ye sanctified me not in the midst 08:39.620 --> 08:45.300 of the children of Israel, yet thou shalt see the land before thee, but thou shalt 08:45.300 --> 08:48.940 not go thither unto the land which I give the children of Israel.
