Deuteronomy 32:6

---

← Deuteronomy 32:5	Deuteronomy 32:6 (KJV)	Deuteronomy 32:7 →
They have corrupted themselves, their spot [is] not [the spot] of his children: [they are] a perverse and crooked generation.	Do ye thus requite the LORD, O foolish people and unwise? [is] not he thy father [that] hath bought thee? hath he not made thee, and established thee?	Remember the days of old, consider the years of many generations: ask thy father, and he will shew thee; thy elders, and they will tell thee.
