Deuteronomy 32:15-18New American Standard Bible (NASB)
15 “But [a]Jeshurun grew fat and kicked—
You are grown fat, thick, and sleek—
Then he forsook God who made him,
And scorned the Rock of his salvation.
16 “They made Him jealous with strange gods;
With abominations they provoked Him to anger.
17 “They sacrificed to demons who were not God,
To gods whom they have not known,
New gods who came lately,
Whom your fathers did not dread.
18 “You neglected the Rock who begot you,
And forgot the God who gave you birth.
This is an unexpected song about Israel's impending disobedience. This song of Moses is recorded at the end of his long discourse to the people of Israel, after he had appointed Joshua (Yeshua) to succeed him as the chosen one of Israel.
