Deuteronomy 32:11-19 International Children’s Bible (ICB)

11. He was like an eagle building its nest.It flutters over its young.It spreads its wings to catch them.It carries them on its feathers.

12. The Lord alone led them.There were no foreign gods among them.

13. The Lord brought them to the heights of the land.He fed them the fruit of the fields.He gave them honey from the rocks.He brought oil from the solid rock.

14. There were milk curds from the cows and milk from the sheep.There were fat sheep and goats.There were sheep and goats from Bashan.There was the best of the wheat.You drank the juice of grapes.

15. Israel grew fat and kicked.They were fat and full and firm.They left the God who made them.They rejected the Rock who saved them.

16. They made God jealous with foreign gods.They made him angry with hated idols.

17. They made sacrifices to demons, not God.They were gods they had never known.They were new gods from nearby.Your ancestors did not fear them.

18. You left God who is the Rock, your Father.You forgot the God who gave you birth.

19. The Lord saw this and rejected them.His sons and daughters had made him angry.
