Deuteronomy 32:5 in context

Deuteronomy 32:2–8

2

My doctrine will drop as the rain.

My speech will condense as the dew,

as the misty rain on the tender grass,

as the showers on the herb.

3

For I will proclaim the LORD’s name.

Ascribe greatness to our God!

4

The Rock: his work is perfect,

for all his ways are just.

A God of faithfulness who does no wrong,

just and right is he.

5
Selected verse

They have dealt corruptly with him.

They are not his children, because of their defect.

They are a perverse and crooked generation.

6

Is this the way you repay the LORD,

foolish and unwise people?

Isn’t he your father who has bought you?

He has made you and established you.

7

Remember the days of old.

Consider the years of many generations.

Ask your father, and he will show you;

your elders, and they will tell you.

8

When the Most High 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 Israel.
