15 Jacob ate until he was stuffed;[a]
    Jeshurun[b] got fat, then rebellious.[c]
It was you who got fat, thick, stubborn![d]
Jeshurun[e] gave up on the God who made him,
    thought the rock of his salvation was worthless.
16 They made God[f] jealous with strange gods,
    aggravated him with detestable things.
17 They sacrificed to demons, not to God,
    to deities of which they had no knowledge—
        new gods only recently on the scene,
        ones about which your ancestors had never heard.[g]
