Psalms 106:24-33

24Then they despised the pleasant land [of Canaan]; They did not believe in His word nor rely on it,

25But they sulked and complained in their tents; They did not listen to the voice of the Lord.

26Therefore He lifted up His hand [swearing] to them, That He would cause them to fall in the wilderness,

27And that He would cast out their descendants among the nations And scatter them in the lands [of the earth].

28They joined themselves also to [the idol] Baal of Peor, And ate sacrifices offered to the dead.

29Thus they provoked Him to anger with their practices, And a plague broke out among them.

30Then Phinehas [the priest] stood up and interceded, And so the plague was halted.

31And that was credited to him for righteousness, To all generations forever.

32They provoked Him to anger at the waters of Meribah, So that it went hard with Moses on their account;

33Because they were rebellious against His Spirit, Moses spoke recklessly with his lips.
