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 toH3615 anH3615 endH3615 in futilityH1892, And their yearsH8141 to an end in suddenH928 terrorH928.

34WhenH518 He killedH2026 them, then they 4soughtH1875 Him, And they returnedH7725 and searchedH7836 5diligentlyH7836 for GodH410;35And they rememberedH2142 that GodH430 was their 6rockH6697, And the MostH5945 HighH5945 GodH410 their 7RedeemerH1350.36But they 8flatteredH6601 Him with their mouthH6310 And 9liedH3576 to Him with their tongueH3956.37For their heartH3820 was not 10steadfastH3559 towardH5973 Him, NorH3808 were they faithfulH539 with His covenantH1285.38But He, being 11compassionateH7349, 1213forgaveH3722 their wrongdoingH5771 and did not destroyH7843 them; And oftenH7235 He 1415restrainedH7725 His angerH639 And did not stirH5782 upH5782 allH3605 His wrathH2534.39So 16He rememberedH2142 that they were only 17fleshH1320, A 1819windH7307 that passesH1980 and does not returnH7725.

40HowH4100 oftenH4100 they 20rebelledH4784 against Him in the wildernessH4057 And 21grievedH6087 Him in the 22desertH3452!41AgainH7725 and again they 2324temptedH5254 GodH410, And painedH8428 the 25HolyH6918 OneH6918 of IsraelH3478.42They 26did not rememberH2142 27His 28powerH3027, The dayH3117 whenH834 He 29redeemedH6299 them from the enemyH6862,43WhenH834 He performedH7760 His 30signsH226 in EgyptH4714 And His 31marvelsH4159 in the fieldH7704 of ZoanH6814,44And 32turnedH2015 their riversH2975 to bloodH1818, And their streamsH5140, so that they could not drinkH8354.45He sentH7971 swarmsH6157 ofH6157 33fliesH6157 among them that devouredH398 them, And 34frogsH6854 that destroyedH7843 them.46He also gaveH5414 their cropsH2981 to the 35grasshopperH2625 And the productH3018 ofH3018 their laborH3018 to the 36locustH697.47He 37destroyedH2026 their vinesH1612 with 38hailstonesH1259 And their sycamoreH8256 treesH8256 with frostH2602.48He also turnedH5462 their 39cattleH1165 overH5462 to the hailstonesH1259, And their herdsH4735 to boltsH7565 ofH7565 lightningH7565.49He 40sentH7971 His burningH2740 angerH639 upon them, FuryH5678 and indignationH2195 and troubleH6869, A bandH4917 of 41destroyingH7451 angelsH4397.50He leveledH6424 a pathH5410 for His angerH639; He did not spareH2820 their soulsH5315 from deathH4194, But 42turnedH5462 their livesH2421 overH5462 to the plagueH1698,51And 43struckH5221 allH3605 the firstbornH1060 in EgyptH4714, The 44firstH7225 andH7225 bestH7225 of their vigorH202 in the tentsH168 of 45HamH2526.52But He 46ledH5265 His own peopleH5971 outH5265 like sheepH6629, And guidedH5090 them in the wildernessH4057 47like a flockH5739;53He ledH5148 them 48safelyH983, so that they did not fearH6342; But 49the seaH3220 engulfedH3680 their enemiesH340.

54So 50He broughtH935 them to His holyH6944 51landH1366, To thisH2088 5253hillH2022 countryH2022 54which His rightH3225 handH3225 had gainedH7069.55He also 55droveH1644 outH1644 the nationsH1471 from them And 56apportionedH5307 them as an inheritanceH5159 by measurementH2256, And had the tribesH7626 of IsraelH3478 dwellH7931 in their tentsH168.
