Deuteronomy 32:15-44

15 “But aJeshurun grew fat, and bkicked;
cyou grew fat, stout, and sleek;
dthen he forsook God ewho made him
and scoffed at fthe Rock of his salvation.
16 gThey stirred him to jealousy with strange gods;
with abominations they provoked him to anger.
17 hThey sacrificed to demons that were no gods,
to gods they had never known,
to inew gods that had come recently,
whom your fathers had never dreaded.
18You were unmindful of jthe Rock that bore
Or fathered
you,
and you lforgot the God who gave you birth.
19 m“The Lord saw it and spurned them,
because of the provocation of nhis sons and his daughters.
20And he said, o‘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 faithfulness.
21 pThey have made me jealous with what is no god;
they have provoked me to anger qwith their idols.
So rI will make them jealous with those who are no people;
I will provoke them to anger with sa foolish nation.
22For ta fire is kindled by my anger,
and it burns to uthe depths of Sheol,
devours the earth and its increase,
and sets on fire the foundations of the mountains.
23 “‘And I will heap disasters upon them;
vI will spend my arrows on them;
24they shall be wasted with hunger,
and devoured by plague
and poisonous pestilence;
I will send wthe teeth of beasts against them,
with the venom of xthings that crawl in the dust.
25 yOutdoors the sword shall bereave,
and indoors terror,
for young man and woman alike,
the nursing child with the man of gray hairs.
26 zI would have said, “I will cut them to pieces;
aaI will wipe them from human memory,”
27had I not feared provocation by the enemy,
lest their adversaries should misunderstand,
lest they should say, ab“Our hand is triumphant,
it was not the Lord who did all this.”’
28 For they are a nation void of counsel,
and there is acno understanding in them.
29 adIf they were wise, they would understand this;
they would aediscern their latter end!
30How could afone have chased a thousand,
and two have put ten thousand to flight,
unless their Rock aghad sold them,
and the Lord had given them up?
31For ahtheir rock is not as our Rock;
aiour enemies are by themselves.
32For their vine ajcomes from the vine of Sodom
and from the fields of Gomorrah;
their grapes are grapes of akpoison;
their clusters are bitter;
33their wine is the poison of alserpents
and the cruel venom of asps.
34 “‘Is not this laid up in store with me,
amsealed up in my treasuries?
35 anVengeance is mine, and recompense,
Septuagint  and I will repay

apfor the time when their foot shall slip;
for aqthe day of their calamity is at hand,
and their doom comes swiftly.’
36For arthe Lord will vindicate
Septuagint judge
his people
atand have compassion on his servants,
when he sees that their power is gone
and there is none remaining, aubond or free.
37Then he will say, avWhere are their gods,
awthe rock in which they took refuge,
38who 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 axI, even I, am he,
and there is no god beside me;
ayI kill and I make alive;
azI wound and I heal;
and there is none that can deliver out of my hand.
40For baI lift up my hand to heaven
and swear, As I live forever,
41if I bbsharpen my flashing sword
Hebrew the lightning of my sword

and my hand takes hold on judgment,
I will take vengeance on my adversaries
and will repay those who hate me.
42I will make my arrows drunk with blood,
and bdmy sword shall devour flesh
with the blood of the slain and the captives,
from the belong-haired heads of the enemy.’
43 bfRejoice with him, O heavens;
Dead Sea Scroll, Septuagint; Masoretic Text  Rejoice his people, O nations

bow down to him, all gods,
Masoretic Text lacks bow down to him, all gods

for he biavenges the blood of his children
Dead Sea Scroll, Septuagint; Masoretic Text servants

and takes vengeance on his adversaries.
He repays those who hate him
Dead Sea Scroll, Septuagint; Masoretic Text lacks  He repays those who hate him

and cleanses
Or atones for
his people’s land.”
Septuagint, Vulgate; Hebrew  his land his people

44Moses came and recited all the words of this song in the hearing of the people, he and bnJoshua
Septuagint, Syriac, Vulgate; Hebrew Hoshea
the son of Nun.

Psalms 69:22

22 bpLet their own bqtable before them become a snare;
brand when they are at peace, let it become a trap.
Hebrew; a slight revocalization yields (compare Septuagint, Syriac, Jerome)  a snare, and retribution and a trap

Psalms 92:6-7

6The stupid man cannot know;
the fool cannot understand this:
7that though btthe wicked sprout like grass
and all buevildoers flourish,
they are doomed to destruction forever;

Luke 12:16-21

16And he told them a parable, saying, bv“The land of a rich man produced plentifully, 17and he thought to himself, bwWhat shall I do, for I have nowhere to store my crops?’ 18And he said, ‘I will do this: I will tear down my bxbarns and build larger ones, and there I will store all my grain and my goods. 19And I will say to my soul, “Soul, you have ample goods laid up byfor many years; relax, bzeat, drink, be merry.”’ 20But God said to him, caFool! cbThis night ccyour soul is required of you, and the things you have prepared, cdwhose will they be?’ 21So is the one cewho lays up treasure for himself and is not rich toward God.”

Luke 16:19-25

The Rich Man and Lazarus

19There was a rich man who was clothed in cfpurple and fine linen and cgwho feasted sumptuously every day. 20And at his gate chwas laid a poor man named Lazarus, covered with sores, 21who desired to be fed with ciwhat fell from the rich man’s table. Moreover, even the dogs came and licked his sores. 22The poor man died and was carried by cjthe angels ckto Abraham’s side.
Greek bosom; also verse 23
The rich man also died and was buried,
23and in cmHades, being in torment, he lifted up his eyes and cnsaw Abraham far off and Lazarus coat his side. 24And he called out, cpFather Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus to dip the end of his finger in water and cqcool my tongue, for crI am in anguish in this flame.’ 25But Abraham said, ‘Child, remember that csyou in your lifetime received your good things, and Lazarus in like manner bad things; but now he is comforted here, and you are in anguish.

Hebrews 12:8
