* "
But Jeshurun grew fat and kicked ;
You grew fat ,
you grew thick ,
You are obese !
Then he forsook God who made him ,
And scornfully esteemed the Rock of his salvation .
*
They provoked Him to jealousy with foreign gods ;
With abominations they provoked Him to anger .
*
They sacrificed to demons ,
not to God ,
To gods they did not know ,
To new gods ,
new arrivals That your fathers did not fear .
*
Of the Rock who begot you ,
you are unmindful ,
And have forgotten the God who fathered you .
* "
And when the LORD saw it ,
He spurned them ,
Because of the provocation of His sons and His daughters .
*
And He said : "
I will hide My face from them ,
I will see what their end will be ,
For they are a perverse generation ,
Children in whom is no faith .
*
They have provoked Me to jealousy by what is not God ;
They have moved Me to anger by their foolish idols .
But I will provoke them to jealousy by those who are not a nation ;
I will move them to anger by a foolish nation .
*
For a fire is kindled in My anger ,
And shall burn to the lowest hell ;
It shall consume the earth with her increase ,
And set on fire the foundations of the mountains .
* "
I will heap disasters on them ;
I will spend My arrows on them .
*
They shall be wasted with hunger ,
Devoured by pestilence and bitter destruction ;
I will also send against them the teeth of beasts ,
With the poison of serpents of the dust .
*
The sword shall destroy outside ;
There shall be terror within For the young man and virgin ,
The nursing child with the man of gray hairs .
*
I would have said , "
I will dash them in pieces ,
I will make the memory of them to cease from among men ,"
*
Had I not feared the wrath of the enemy ,
Lest their adversaries should misunderstand ,
Lest they should say , "
Our hand is high ;
And it is not the LORD who has done all this ."'
