Psalms 106:24-33

24Then they despised the pleasant land, having no faith in his promise.

25They murmured in their tents, and did not obey the voice of the Lord.

26Therefore he raised his hand and swore to them that he would make them fall in the wilderness,

27and would make their offspring fall among the nations, scattering them among the lands.

28Then they yoked themselves to the Baal of Peor, and ate sacrifices offered to the dead;

29they provoked the Lord to anger with their deeds, and a plague broke out among them.

30Then Phinehas stood up and intervened, and the plague was stayed.

31And that was counted to him as righteousness from generation to generation forever.

32They angered him at the waters of Meribah, and it went ill with Moses on their account,

33for they made his spirit bitter, and he spoke rashly with his lips.
