Deuteronomy 32:3-4

Context

32:3 For I will proclaim the name 1  of the Lord;

you must acknowledge the greatness of our God.

32:4 As for the Rock, 2  his work is perfect,

for all his ways are just.

He is a reliable God who is never unjust,

he is fair 3  and upright.

1 tc Smr and Tg read “in the name.”

2 tc The LXX reads Θεός (qeos, “God”) for the MT’s “Rock.”

sn The Hebrew term depicts God as a rocky summit where one may find safety and protection. Within a covenantal context it serves as a reminder to the people that their God has committed himself to their protection in return for their allegiance.

3 tn Or “just” (KJV, NAB, NRSV, NLT) or “righteous” (NASB).
