Psalms 106:34-46

34They 1did not destroy the peoples, As 2the Lord had commanded them,35But 3they got involved with the nations And learned their 4practices,36And 5served their idols, 6Which became a snare to them.37They even 7sacrificed their sons and their daughters to the 8demons,38And shed 9innocent blood, The blood of their 10sons and their daughters Whom they sacrificed to the idols of Canaan; And the land was 11defiled with the blood.39So they became 12unclean in their 13practices, And 1415were unfaithful in their deeds.

40Therefore the 16anger of the Lord was kindled against His people, And He 17loathed His 1819inheritance.41So 20He handed them over to the 21nations, And those who hated them ruled over them.42Their enemies also 22oppressed them, And they were subdued under their 23power.43Many times He would 24rescue them; They, however, were rebellious in their 25plan, And they 26sank down into their guilt.

44Nevertheless He looked at their distress When He 27heard their cry;45And He 28remembered His covenant for their sake, And 2930relented 31according to the greatness of His mercy.46He also made them 32objects of compassion In the presence of all their captors.
