Psalm 106:23–24

23 So he said he would destroy them—

had not Moses, his chosen one,

stood in the breach before him

to keep his wrath from destroying them.

24 Then they despised the pleasant land;

they did not believe his promise.

23 Therefore he said he would destroy them—

had not Moses, his chosen one,

stood in the breach before him,

to turn away his wrath from destroying them.

24 Then they despised the pleasant land,

having no faith in his promise.

23 So he declared he would destroy them.

But Moses, his chosen one, stepped between the Lord and the people.

He begged him to turn from his anger and not destroy them.

24 The people refused to enter the pleasant land,

for they wouldn’t believe his promise to care for them.

23 Therefore He said that He would destroy them,

Had not Moses His chosen one stood before Him in the breach,

To turn away His wrath, lest He destroy them.

24 Then they despised the pleasant land;

They did not believe His word,

23 So God said he would destroy them.

But Moses, his chosen one, stood before him

and stopped God’s anger from destroying them.

24 Then they refused to go into the beautiful land of Canaan;

they did not believe what God promised.

23 Therefore he said that he would destroy them,

Had not Moses his chosen stood before him in the breach,

To turn away his wrath, lest he should destroy them.

24 Yea, they despised the pleasant land,

They believed not his word,

23 And he said that he would destroy them, had not Moses, his chosen, stood before him in the breach, to turn away his fury, lest he should destroy them. 24 And they despised the pleasant land; they believed not his word,

23 God said he was going to destroy them, 

but Moses, his chosen one, stood in his way 

to prevent him from exterminating them. 

24 They refused ⸤to enter⸥ the pleasant land. 

They did not believe what he said. 

23 So He said He would have destroyed them—

if Moses His chosen one

had not stood before Him in the breach

to turn His wrath away from destroying them.

24 They despised the pleasant land

and did not believe His promise.

23 Therefore he said he would destroy them—

had not Moses, his chosen one,

stood in the breach before him,

to turn away his wrath from destroying them.

24 Then they despised the pleasant land,

having no faith in his promise.

23 So he said he would exterminate them,

had not Moses, his chosen one,

stood in the breach before him,

to reverse his wrath from destroying them.

24 Then they refused the desirable land;

they did not believe his word,

23 So he said he would destroy them.

But Moses, his chosen one,

stood up for them.

He kept God’s anger from destroying them.

24 Later on, they refused to enter the pleasant land of Canaan.

They didn’t believe God’s promise.

23 Therefore He said that He would destroy them,

Had not Moses His chosen one stood in the breach before Him,

To turn away His wrath from destroying them.

24 Then they despised the pleasant land;

They did not believe in His word,
