Context of Psalms 106:43
41And He gave them into the hand of the Gentiles, And those who hated them ruled over them. 42Their enemies also oppressed them, And they were brought into subjection under their hand. Many times He delivered them; But they rebelled in their counsel, And were brought low for their iniquity. 44Nevertheless He regarded their affliction, When He heard their cry; 45And for their sake He remembered His covenant, And relented according to the multitude of His mercies.

- Matthew Henry Concise Commentary · v. 34-48Verses 34-48 The conduct of the Israelites in Canaan, and God's dealings with them, show that the way of sin is down-hill; omissions make way for commissions: when they neglected to destroy the heathen, they learned their works.
