Deuteronomy 32:13-15

The Song of Moses

13 i He made him ride on the high places of the land,
and he ate the produce of the field,
and he suckled him with j honey out of the rock,
and k oil out of l the flinty rock.
14 Curds from the herd, and milk from the flock,
with fat 1 of lambs,
rams of Bashan and goats,
with the very finest 2 of the wheat -
and you drank foaming wine made from m the blood of the grape.

15 "But n Jeshurun grew fat, and o kicked;
p you grew fat, stout, and sleek;
q then he forsook God r who made him
and scoffed at s the Rock of his salvation.
