Deuteronomy 32:15-17
New International Reader's Version
15 When Israel grew fat, they became stubborn.
When they were filled with food, they became fat and heavy.
They left the God who made them.
They turned away from the Rock who saved them.
16 They made him jealous by serving false gods.
They made him angry by worshiping statues of gods.
He hated those gods.
17 The people sacrificed to those false gods, not to God.
They hadn’t known anything about those false gods.
Those gods were new to them.
Their people of long ago didn’t worship them.

15 Jeshurun[a](A) grew fat(B) and kicked;
filled with food, they became heavy and sleek.
They abandoned(C) the God who made them
and rejected the Rock(D) their Savior.
16 They made him jealous(E) with their foreign gods
and angered(F) him with their detestable idols.
17 They sacrificed(G) to false gods,(H) which are not God—
gods they had not known,(I)
gods that recently appeared,(J)
gods your ancestors did not fear.
