Psalms 78:25-72

25ManH376 ateH398 angelsH47’ foodH3899: he sentH7971 them foodH6720 to the fullH7648.1 26He caused an east windH6921 to blowH5265 in the heavenH8064: and by his powerH5797 he brought inH5090 the south windH8486.2 27He rainedH4305 fleshH7607 also upon them as dustH6083, and featheredH3671 fowlsH5775 like as the sandH2344 of the seaH3220:3 28And he let it fallH5307 in the midstH7130 of their campH4264, aroundH5439 their habitationsH4908. 29So they ateH398, and were wellH3966 filledH7646: for he gaveH935 them their own desireH8378; 30They were not estrangedH2114 from their lustH8378. But while their meatH400 was yet in their mouthsH6310, 31The wrathH639 of GodH430 cameH5927 upon them, and slewH2026 the fattestH4924 of them, and smote downH3766 the chosenH970 men of IsraelH3478.45 32For all this they sinnedH2398 still, and believedH539 not for his wondrous worksH6381. 33Therefore their daysH3117 did he consumeH3615 in vanityH1892, and their yearsH8141 in troubleH928. 34When he slewH2026 them, then they soughtH1875 him: and they returnedH7725 and enquired earlyH7836 after GodH410. 35And they rememberedH2142 that GodH430 was their rockH6697, and the highH5945 GodH410 their redeemerH1350. 36Nevertheless they would flatterH6601 him with their mouthH6310, and they liedH3576 to him with their tonguesH3956. 37For their heartH3820 was not rightH3559 with him, neither were they steadfastH539 in his covenantH1285. 38But he, being full of compassionH7349, forgaveH3722 their iniquityH5771, and destroyedH7843 them not: yea, many a timeH7235 he turnedH7725 his angerH639 awayH7725, and did not stir upH5782 all his wrathH2534. 39For he rememberedH2142 that they were but fleshH1320; a windH7307 that passeth awayH1980, and cometh not againH7725.

40HowH4100 oft did they provokeH4784 him in the wildernessH4057, and grieveH6087 him in the desertH3452!6 41Yea, they turned backH7725 and temptedH5254 GodH410, and limitedH8428 the Holy OneH6918 of IsraelH3478. 42They rememberedH2142 not his handH3027, nor the dayH3117 when he deliveredH6299 them from the enemyH6862.7 43How he had wroughtH7760 his signsH226 in EgyptH4714, and his wondersH4159 in the fieldH7704 of ZoanH6814:8 44And had turnedH2015 their riversH2975 into bloodH1818; and their streamsH5140, that they could not drinkH8354. 45He sentH7971 swarms of fliesH6157 among them, which devouredH398 them; and frogsH6854, which destroyedH7843 them. 46He gaveH5414 also their increaseH2981 to the caterpillerH2625, and their labourH3018 to the locustH697. 47He destroyedH2026 their vinesH1612 with hailH1259, and their sycamore treesH8256 with frostH2602.910 48He gave upH5462 their cattleH1165 also to the hailH1259, and their flocksH4735 to hot thunderboltsH7565.1112 49He castH7971 upon them the fiercenessH2740 of his angerH639, wrathH5678, and indignationH2195, and troubleH6869, by sendingH4917 evilH7451 angelsH4397 among them . 50He madeH6424 a wayH5410 to his angerH639; he sparedH2820 not their soulH5315 from deathH4194, but gaveH5462 their lifeH2416 overH5462 to the pestilenceH1698;1314 51And smoteH5221 all the firstbornH1060 in EgyptH4714; the chiefH7225 of their strengthH202 in the tabernaclesH168 of HamH2526: 52But made his own peopleH5971 to go forthH5265 like sheepH6629, and guidedH5090 them in the wildernessH4057 like a flockH5739. 53And he ledH5148 them on safelyH983, so that they fearedH6342 not: but the seaH3220 overwhelmedH3680 their enemiesH341.15 54And he broughtH935 them to the borderH1366 of his sanctuaryH6944, even to this mountainH2022, which his right handH3225 had purchasedH7069. 55He cast outH1644 the heathenH1471 also beforeH6440 them, and dividedH5307 them an inheritanceH5159 by lineH2256, and made the tribesH7626 of IsraelH3478 to dwellH7931 in their tentsH168. 56Yet they temptedH5254 and provokedH4784 the most highH5945 GodH430, and keptH8104 not his testimoniesH5713: 57But turned backH5472, and dealt unfaithfullyH898 like their fathersH1: they were turned asideH2015 like a deceitfulH7423 bowH7198. 58For they provoked him to angerH3707 with their high placesH1116, and moved him to jealousyH7065 with their graven imagesH6456. 59When GodH430 heardH8085 this, he was filled with wrathH5674, and greatlyH3966 abhorredH3988 IsraelH3478: 60So that he forsookH5203 the tabernacleH4908 of ShilohH7887, the tentH168 which he placedH7931 among menH120; 61And deliveredH5414 his strengthH5797 into captivityH7628, and his gloryH8597 into the enemy’sH6862 handH3027. 62He gaveH5462 overH5462 his peopleH5971 also to the swordH2719; and was filled with wrathH5674 with his inheritanceH5159. 63The fireH784 consumedH398 their young menH970; and their maidensH1330 were not given to marriageH1984.16 64Their priestsH3548 fellH5307 by the swordH2719; and their widowsH490 made no lamentationH1058. 65Then the LordH136 awokeH3364 as if from sleepH3463, and like a mighty manH1368 that shoutethH7442 by reason of wineH3196. 66And he smoteH5221 his enemiesH6862 in the hinder partH268: he putH5414 them to a perpetualH5769 reproachH2781. 67Moreover he refusedH3988 the tabernacleH168 of JosephH3130, and choseH977 not the tribeH7626 of EphraimH669: 68But choseH977 the tribeH7626 of JudahH3063, the mountH2022 ZionH6726 which he lovedH157. 69And he builtH1129 his sanctuaryH4720 like highH7311 palaces, like the earthH776 which he hath establishedH3245 for everH5769.17 70He choseH977 DavidH1732 also his servantH5650, and tookH3947 him from the sheep foldsH4356H6629: 71From followingH310 the ewes great with youngH5763 he broughtH935 him to feedH7462 JacobH3290 his peopleH5971, and IsraelH3478 his inheritanceH5159.18 72So he fedH7462 them according to the integrityH8537 of his heartH3824; and guidedH5148 them by the skilfulnessH8394 of his handsH3709.
