Deuteronomy 32:4

God's faithfulnessJusticeGod's power and sovereigntyProtection and safety

2 Let my teaching fall like rain and my speech settle like dew, like gentle rain on new grass, like showers on tender plants.

3 For I will proclaim the name of the LORD. Ascribe greatness to our God!

He is the Rock, His work is perfect; all His ways are just. A God of faithfulness without injustice, righteous and upright is He.

5 His people have acted corruptly toward Him; the spot on them is not that of His children, but of a perverse and crooked generation.

6 Is this how you repay the LORD, O foolish and senseless people? Is He not your Father and Creator? Has He not made you and established you?
