Literal Standard Version :: World English Bible Catholic

- Kapitel 32 -

(Revelation 15:1–4)
1
Give ear, O heavens, and I speak; And you hear, O earth, sayings of my mouth!
2
My doctrine drops as rain; My sayings flow as dew; As storms on the tender grass, || And as showers on the herb,
3
For I proclaim the Name of YHWH; Ascribe greatness to our God!
4
The RockHis work [is] perfect, || For all His ways [are] just; God of steadfastness, and without iniquity; Righteous and upright [is] He.
5
It has done corruptly to Him; Their blemish is not of His sons, || A generation perverse and crooked!
6
Do you act thus to YHWH, || O people foolish and not wise? Is He not your Father—He who bought you? He made you, and establishes you.
7
Remember days of old—Understand the years of many generationsAsk your father, and he tells you; Your elderly, and they say to you:
8
In the Most High causing nations to inherit, || In His separating sons of Adam—He sets up the borders of the peoples || By the number of the sons of God [[ or sons of Israel ]].
9
For YHWH’s portion [is] His people, || Jacob [is] the line of His inheritance.
10
He finds him in a land—a desert, || And in a void—a howling wilderness, || He turns him aroundHe causes him to understand—He keeps him as the apple of His eye.
11
As an eagle wakes up its nest, || Flutters over its young ones, || Spreads its wings [and] takes them, || Carries them on its pinions—
12
YHWH alone leads him, || And there is no strange god with him.
13
He makes him ride on high places of earth, || And he eats increase of the fields, || And He makes him suck honey from a rock, || And oil out of the flint of a rock;
14
Butter of the herd, and milk of the flock, || With fat of lambs, and rams of sons of Bashan, || And male goats, with fat of kidneys of wheat; And of the blood of the grape you drink wine!
15
And Yeshurun waxes fat, and kicks: You have been fat, you have been thick, || You have been covered. And he leaves God who made him, || And dishonors the Rock of his salvation.
16
They make Him zealous with strangers, || They make Him angry with abominations.
17
They sacrifice to the demons, not God, || To gods they have not known, || New onesthey came from the vicinity; Your fathers have not feared them!
18
You forget the Rock that begot you, || And neglect God who forms you.
19
And YHWH sees and despises—For the provocation of His sons and His daughters.
20
And He says: I hide My face from them, || I see what their latter end [is]; For they [are] a contrary generation, || Sons in whom is no steadfastness.
21
They have made Me jealous by [what is] not God, || They made Me angry by their vanities; And I make them jealous by [what is] not a people, || I make them angry by a foolish nation.
22
For a fire has been kindled in My anger, || And it burns to the lowest [part] of Sheol, || And consumes earth and its increase, || And sets on fire [the] foundations of mountains.
23
I heap calamities on them, || I consume My arrows on them.
24
Exhausted by famine, || And consumed by heat and bitter destructionI also send the teeth of beasts on them, || With poison of fearful things of the dust.
25
The sword destroys from outside, || And out of the inner-chambers—terror, || Both youth and virgin, || Suckling with man of grey hair.
26
I have said: I blow them away, || I cause their remembrance to cease from man;
27
If I do not fear the anger of an enemy, || Lest their adversaries knowLest they say, Our hand is high, || And YHWH has not worked all this.
28
For they [are] a nation lost to counsels, || And there is no understanding in them.
29
If only they were wise, || They would deal wisely [with] this, || They would attend to their latter end!
30
How does one pursue a thousand, || And two cause a myriad to flee, || If not that their Rock has sold them, || And YHWH has shut them up?
31
For their rock [is] not as our Rock || (And our enemies [are] judges!)
32
For their vine [is] of the vine of Sodom, || And of the fields of Gomorrah; Their grapes [are] grapes of gallThey have bitter clusters;
33
The poison of dragons [is] their wine || And the fierce venom of cobras.
34
Is it not laid up with Me? Sealed among My treasures?
35
Vengeance and retribution [are] Mine, || At the due timetheir foot slides; For near is a day of their calamity, || And things prepared for them have hastened.
36
For YHWH judges His people, || And gives comfort over His servants. For He sees the going away of power, || And none is restrained and left.
37
And He has said, Where [are] their gods—The rock in which they trusted?
38
Who eat the fat of their sacrifices, || [And] drink the wine of their drink-offering? Let them arise and help you, || Let it be a hiding place for you!
39
See, now, that I [am] He, || And there is no god besides Me; I put to death and I keep alive; I have struck and I heal; And there is not a deliverer from My hand,
40
For I lift up My hand to the heavens, || And have said, I live for all time!
41
If I have sharpened the brightness of My sword, || And My hand lays hold on judgment, || I return vengeance to My adversaries, || And to those hating MeI repay!
42
I make My arrows drunk with blood, || And My sword devours flesh, || From the blood of the pierced and captive, || From the head of the leaders of the enemy.
43
Sing, O nations, [with] His people, || For He avenges the blood of His servants, || And He turns back vengeance on His adversaries, || And has pardoned His land [and] His people.”
44
And Moses comes and speaks all the words of this song in the ears of the people, he and Hoshea son of Nun;
45
and Moses finishes to speak all these words to all Israel,
46
and says to them, “Set your heart to all the words which I am testifying against you today, that you command your sons to observe to do all the words of this law,
47
for it [is] not a vain thing for you, for it [is] your life, and by this thing you prolong days on the ground to where you are passing over the Jordan to possess it.”

Moses’ Death Foretold

48
And YHWH speaks to Moses on this very same day, saying,
49
Go up to this Mount Abarim, Mount Nebo, which [is] in the land of Moab, which [is] on the front of Jericho, and see the land of Canaan which I am giving to the sons of Israel for a possession;
50
and die on the mountain to where you are going up, and be gathered to your people, as your brother Aaron has died on Mount Hor and is gathered to his people;
51
because you trespassed against Me in the midst of the sons of Israel at the waters of Meribath-Kadesh, the wilderness of Zin, because you did not sanctify Me in the midst of the sons of Israel.
52
Indeed, you see the land before [you], but you do not go in there to the land which I am giving to the sons of Israel.”
(Revelation 15:1–4)
1
Give ear, you heavens, and I will speak. Let the earth hear the words of my mouth.
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
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.
9
For the LORD’s portion is his people. Jacob is the lot of his inheritance.
10
He found him in a desert land, in the waste howling wilderness. He surrounded him. He cared for him. He kept him as the apple of his eye.
11
As an eagle that stirs up her nest, that flutters over her young, he spread abroad his wings, he took them, he bore them on his feathers.
12
The LORD alone led him. There was no foreign god with him.
13
He made him ride on the high places of the earth. He ate the increase of the field. He caused him to suck honey out of the rock, oil out of the flinty rock;
14
butter from the herd, and milk from the flock, with fat of lambs, rams of the breed of Bashan, and goats, with the finest of the wheat. From the blood of the grape, you drank wine.
15
But Jeshurun grew fat, and kicked. You have grown fat. You have grown thick. You have become sleek. Then he abandoned God who made him, and rejected the Rock of his salvation.
16
They moved him to jealousy with strange gods. They provoked him to anger with abominations.
17
They sacrificed to demons, not God, to gods that they didn’t know, to new gods that came up recently, which your fathers didn’t dread.
18
Of the Rock who became your father, you are unmindful, and have forgotten God who gave you birth.
19
The LORD saw and abhorred, because of the provocation of his sons and his daughters.
20
He said, “I will hide my face from them. I will see what their end will be; for they are a very perverse generation, children in whom is no faithfulness.
21
They have moved me to jealousy with that which is not God. They have provoked me to anger with their vanities. I will move them to jealousy with those who are not a people. I will provoke them to anger with a foolish nation.
22
For a fire is kindled in my anger, that burns to the lowest Sheol,(a) devours the earth with its increase, and sets the foundations of the mountains on fire.
23
I will heap evils on them. I will spend my arrows on them.
24
They shall be wasted with hunger, and devoured with burning heat and bitter destruction. I will send the teeth of animals on them, with the venom of vipers that glide in the dust.
25
Outside the sword will bereave, and in the rooms, terror on both young man and virgin, the nursing infant with the gray-haired man.
26
I said that I would scatter them afar. I would make their memory to cease from among men;
27
were it not that I feared the provocation of the enemy, lest their adversaries should judge wrongly, lest they should say, ‘Our hand is exalted; the LORD has not done all this.’”
28
For they are a nation void of counsel. There is no understanding in them.
29
Oh that they were wise, that they understood this, that they would consider their latter end!
30
How could one chase a thousand, and two put ten thousand to flight, unless their Rock had sold them, and the LORD had delivered them up?
31
For their rock is not as our Rock, even our enemies themselves concede.
32
For their vine is of the vine of Sodom, of the fields of Gomorrah. Their grapes are poison grapes. Their clusters are bitter.
33
Their wine is the poison of serpents, the cruel venom of asps.
34
“Isn’t this laid up in store with me, sealed up among my treasures?
35
Vengeance is mine, and recompense, at the time when their foot slides, for the day of their calamity is at hand. Their doom rushes at them.”
36
For the LORD will judge his people, and have compassion on his servants, when he sees that their power is gone, that there is no one remaining, shut up or left at large.
37
He will say, “Where are their gods, the rock in which they took refuge,
38
which ate the fat of their sacrifices, and drank the wine of their drink offering? Let them rise up and help you! Let them be your protection.
39
See now that I myself am he. There is no god with me. I kill and I make alive. I wound and I heal. There is no one who can deliver out of my hand.
40
For I lift up my hand to heaven and declare, as I live forever,
41
if I sharpen my glittering sword, my hand grasps it in judgment; I will take vengeance on my adversaries, and will repay those who hate me.
42
I will make my arrows drunk with blood. My sword shall devour flesh with the blood of the slain and the captives, from the head of the leaders of the enemy.”
43
Rejoice, you nations, with his people, for he will avenge the blood of his servants. He will take vengeance on his adversaries, and will make atonement for his land and for his people.(b)
44
Moses came and spoke all the words of this song in the ears of the people, he and Joshua the son of Nun.
45
Moses finished reciting all these words to all Israel.
46
He said to them, “Set your heart to all the words which I testify to you today, which you shall command your children to observe to do, all the words of this law.
47
For it is no vain thing for you, because it is your life, and through this thing you shall prolong your days in the land, where you go over the Jordan to possess it.”

Moses’ Death Foretold

48
The LORD spoke to Moses that same day, saying,
49
Go up into this mountain of Abarim, to Mount Nebo, which is in the land of Moab, that is across from Jericho; and see the land of Canaan, which I give to the children of Israel for a possession.
50
Die on the mountain where you go up, and be gathered to your people, as Aaron your brother died on Mount Hor, and was gathered to his people;
51
because you trespassed against me among the children of Israel at the waters of Meribah of Kadesh, in the wilderness of Zin; because you didn’t uphold my holiness among the children of Israel.
52
For you shall see the land from a distance; but you shall not go there into the land which I give the children of Israel.”
