That he might eat the produce of the fields;
He made him draw honey from the rock,
And oil from the flinty rock;
aWith fat of lambs;
And rams of the breed of Bashan, and goats,
With the choicest wheat;
And you drank wine, the bblood of the grapes.
aYou grew fat, you grew thick,
You are obese!
Then he bforsook God who cmade him,
And scornfully esteemed the dRock of his salvation.
To gods they did not know,
To new gods, new arrivals
That your fathers did not fear.
Because of the provocation of His sons and His daughters.
I will see what their end will be,
For they are a perverse generation,
aChildren in whom is no faith.
They have moved Me to anger bby their foolish idols.
But cI will provoke them to jealousy by those who are not a nation;
I will move them to anger by a foolish nation.
And shall burn to the1 lowest hell;
It shall consume the earth with her increase,
And set on fire the foundations of the mountains.
Devoured by pestilence and bitter destruction;
I will also send against them the ateeth of beasts,
With the poison of serpents of the dust.
There shall be terror within
For the young man and virgin,
The nursing child with the man of gray hairs.
I will make the memory of them to cease from among men,”
Lest their adversaries should misunderstand,
Lest they should say, a“Our hand is high;
And it is not the Lord who has done all this.” ’
And two put ten thousand to flight,
Unless their Rock ahad sold them,
And the Lord had surrendered them?
And of the fields of Gomorrah;
Their grapes are grapes of gall,
Their clusters are bitter.
Their foot shall slip in due time;
bFor the day of their calamity is at hand,
And the things to come hasten upon them.’
bAnd have compassion on His servants,
When He sees that their power is gone,
And cthere is no one remaining, bond or free.
And drank the wine of their drink offering?
Let them rise and help you,
And be your refuge.
And bthere is no God besides Me;
cI kill and I make alive;
I wound and I heal;
Nor is there any who can deliver from My hand.
And My hand takes hold on judgment,
I will render vengeance to My enemies,
And repay those who hate Me.
And My sword shall devour flesh,
With the blood of the slain and the captives,
From the heads of the leaders of the enemy.” ’
For He will bavenge the blood of His servants,
And render vengeance to His adversaries;
He cwill provide atonement for His land and His people.”
