Psalms 78:32-55
32In spite of allH3605 thisH2088 they 1stillH5750 sinnedH2398 And 2did not believeH539 in His wonderfulH6381 worksH6381.33So He broughtH3615 3their daysH3117 to an endH3615 in 4futilityH1892 And their yearsH8141 in suddenH928 terrorH928.
34WhenH518 He killedH2026 them, then they 5soughtH1875 Him, And returnedH7725 and searchedH7836 6diligentlyH7836 for GodH410;35And they rememberedH2142 that GodH430 was their 7rockH6697, And the MostH5945 HighH5945 GodH410 their 8RedeemerH1350.36But they 9deceivedH6601 Him with their mouthH6310 And 10liedH3576 to Him with their tongueH3956.37For their heartH3820 was not 11steadfastH3559 towardH5973 Him, NorH3808 were they faithfulH539 in His covenantH1285.38But He, being 12compassionateH7349, 1314forgaveH3722 their iniquityH5771 and did not destroyH7843 them; And oftenH7235 He 1516restrainedH7725 His angerH639 And did not arouseH5782 allH3605 His wrathH2534.39Thus 17He rememberedH2142 that they were but 18fleshH1320, A 1920windH7307 that passesH1980 and does not returnH7725.
40HowH4100 oftenH4100 they 21rebelledH4784 against Him in the wildernessH4057 And 22grievedH6087 Him in the 23desertH3452!41AgainH7725 and again they 2425temptedH5254 GodH410, And painedH8428 the 26HolyH6918 OneH6918 of IsraelH3478.42They 27did not rememberH2142 28His 29powerH3027, The dayH3117 whenH834 He 30redeemedH6299 them from the adversaryH6862,43WhenH834 He performedH7760 His 31signsH226 in EgyptH4714 And His 32marvelsH4159 in the fieldH7704 of ZoanH6814,44And 33turnedH2015 their riversH2975 to bloodH1818, And their streamsH5140, they could not drinkH8354.45He sentH7971 among them swarmsH6157 of 34fliesH6157 which devouredH398 them, And 35frogsH6854 which destroyedH7843 them.46He gaveH5414 also their cropsH2981 to the 36grasshopperH2625 And the productH3018 of their laborH3018 to the 37locustH697.47He 38destroyedH2026 their vinesH1612 with 39hailstonesH1259 And their sycamoreH8256 treesH8256 with frostH2602.48He gaveH5462 overH5462 their 40cattleH1165 also to the hailstonesH1259 And their herdsH4735 to boltsH7565 of lightningH7565.49He 41sentH7971 upon them His burningH2740 angerH639, FuryH5678 and indignationH2195 and troubleH6869, 42A bandH4917 of destroyingH7451 angelsH4397.50He leveledH6424 a pathH5410 for His angerH639; He did not spareH2820 their soulH5315 from deathH4194, But 43gaveH5462 overH5462 their lifeH2421 to the plagueH1698,51And 44smoteH5221 allH3605 the firstbornH1060 in EgyptH4714, The 45firstH7225 issue of their virilityH202 in the tentsH168 of 46HamH2526.52But He 47ledH5265 forthH5265 His own peopleH5971 like sheepH6629 And guidedH5090 them in the wildernessH4057 48like a flockH5739;53He ledH5148 them 49safelyH983, so that they did not fearH6342; But 50the seaH3220 engulfedH3680 their enemiesH340.
54So 51He broughtH935 them to His holyH6944 52landH1366, To thisH2088 5354hillH2022 countryH2022 55which His rightH3225 handH3225 had gainedH7069.55He also 56droveH1644 out the nationsH1471 beforeH4480H6440 them And 57apportionedH5307 them for an inheritanceH5159 by measurementH2256, And made the tribesH7626 of IsraelH3478 dwellH7931 in their tentsH168.
