My speech distill as the dew,
bAs raindrops on the tender herb,
And as showers on the grass.
For all His ways are justice,
cA God of truth and dwithout injustice;
Righteous and upright is He.
They are not His children,
Because of their blemish:
A bperverse and crooked generation.
O foolish and unwise people?
Is He not byour Father, who cbought you?
Has He not dmade you and established you?
Consider the years of many generations.
bAsk your father, and he will show you;
Your elders, and they will tell you:
When He bseparated the sons of Adam,
He set the boundaries of the peoples
According to the number of the1 children of Israel.
And in the wasteland, a howling wilderness;
He encircled him, He instructed him,
He bkept him as the apple of His eye.
Hovers over its young,
Spreading out its wings, taking them up,
Carrying them on its wings,
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.
