Deuteronomy

“We came to a land full of milk and honey.”

Moses said, “I brought the people into this country,
To give to their fathers, as God commanded me.
We came to a land full of milk and honey,
But after they filled themselves to overfull,
They turned to other gods, becoming fat and dull.
serving them; provoking me with Apis, a golden bull.

“We came to a land full of milk and honey.”

When many evils and troubles have made them less,
this song shall testify against them as a witness.
I shall not be forgotten by them nonetheless!
I know the thoughts hidden in their heart and mind,
I brought them into the land where they now find
The promised milk and honey and foods of all kind.


“We came to a land full of milk and honey.”
