Verse 1 is found in chapter 32 of Deuteronomy. The Song of Moses begins by calling heaven and earth as witnesses. God is presented as a perfect rock, righteous and faithful, while Israel appears as a people who respond to received goodness with corruption. The poem reviews God’s election, protection, and provision to show that future apostasy cannot be attributed to any failure of divine faithfulness.

Merkt auf, ihr Himmel, ich will reden, und die Erde höre die Rede meines Mundes.
Escuchad, cielos, y hablaré; Y oiga la tierra los dichos de mi boca.
Cieux! prêtez l'oreille, et je parlerai; Terre! écoute les paroles de ma bouche.
CIELI, porgete gli orecchi, ed io parlerò; Ed ascolti la terra le parole della mia bocca.
INCLINAI os ouvidos, ó céus, e falarei; e ouça a terra as palavras da minha boca.
「諸天哪,要側耳聽我說話; 願地聆聽我口中的言語。
