Deuteronomy 32:1-9 ▼

1 Heare O ye heauens, and I shal speake, and let the earth heare the wordes of my mouth.

2 My doctrine shal drop as doth the rayne: and my speache shall flowe as doth the deawe, as the shoure vpon the hearbes, and as the droppes vpon the grasse.

3 For I wyll publishe the name of the Lord: Ascribe ye honour vnto our God.

4 Perfect is the worke of the most mightie God, for all his wayes are iudgement: He is a God of trueth, without wickednesse, righteous and iust is he.

5 Frowardly haue they done agaynst hym by their vices, not beyng his owne children, but a wicked and frowarde generation.

6 Do ye so rewarde the Lord, O foolishe nation and vnwise? Is not he thy father that hath bought thee? Hath he nat made thee, and ordeyned thee?

7 Remember the dayes of the worlde that is past, consider the yeres of so many generations: Aske thy father, and he wyll shewe thee, thy elders, and they wyll tell thee.

8 When the most hyest deuided to the nations their inheritaunce, and when he seperated the sonnes of Adam, he put the borders of the nations accordyng to the number of the children of Israel:

9 For the Lordes part is his people, and Iacob is the portion of his inheritauce.
