Psalm 78:32–37 — The New International Version (NIV)

32 In spite of all this, they kept on sinning;

in spite of his wonders, they did not believe.

33 So he ended their days in futility

and their years in terror.

34 Whenever God slew them, they would seek him;

they eagerly turned to him again.

35 They remembered that God was their Rock,

that God Most High was their Redeemer.

36 But then they would flatter him with their mouths,

lying to him with their tongues;

37 their hearts were not loyal to him,

they were not faithful to his covenant.

Psalm 78:32–37 — King James Version (KJV 1900)

32 For all this they sinned still,

And believed not for his wondrous works.

33 Therefore their days did he consume in vanity,

And their years in trouble.

34 When he slew them, then they sought him:

And they returned and inquired early after God.

35 And they remembered that God was their rock,

And the high God their redeemer.

36 Nevertheless they did flatter him with their mouth,

And they lied unto him with their tongues.

37 For their heart was not right with him,

Neither were they stedfast in his covenant.

Psalm 78:32–37 — New Living Translation (NLT)

32 But in spite of this, the people kept sinning.

Despite his wonders, they refused to trust him.

33 So he ended their lives in failure,

their years in terror.

34 When God began killing them,

they finally sought him.

They repented and took God seriously.

35 Then they remembered that God was their rock,

that God Most High was their redeemer.

36 But all they gave him was lip service;

they lied to him with their tongues.

37 Their hearts were not loyal to him.

They did not keep his covenant.

Psalm 78:32–37 — The New King James Version (NKJV)

32 In spite of this they still sinned,

And did not believe in His wondrous works.

33 Therefore their days He consumed in futility,

And their years in fear.

34 When He slew them, then they sought Him;

And they returned and sought earnestly for God.

35 Then they remembered that God was their rock,

And the Most High God their Redeemer.

36 Nevertheless they flattered Him with their mouth,

And they lied to Him with their tongue;

37 For their heart was not steadfast with Him,

Nor were they faithful in His covenant.

Psalm 78:32–37 — New Century Version (NCV)

32 But they kept on sinning;

they did not believe even with the miracles.

33 So he ended their days without meaning

and their years in terror.

34 Anytime he killed them, they would look to him for help;

they would come back to God and follow him.

35 They would remember that God was their Rock,

that God Most High had saved them.

36 But their words were false,

and their tongues lied to him.

37 Their hearts were not really loyal to God;

they did not keep his agreement.

Psalm 78:32–37 — American Standard Version (ASV)

32 For all this they sinned still,

And believed not in his wondrous works.

33 Therefore their days did he consume in vanity,

And their years in terror.

34 When he slew them, then they inquired after him;

And they returned and sought God earnestly.

35 And they remembered that God was their rock,

And the Most High God their redeemer.

36 But they flattered him with their mouth,

And lied unto him with their tongue.

37 For their heart was not right with him,

Neither were they faithful in his covenant.

Psalm 78:32–37 — 1890 Darby Bible (DARBY)

32 For all this, they sinned still, and believed not in his marvellous works; 33 And he consumed their days in vanity, and their years in terror. 34 When he slew them, then they sought him, and returned and sought early after •God; 35 And they remembered that God was their rock, and •God, the Most High, their redeemer. 36 But they flattered him with their mouth, and lied unto him with their tongue; 37 For their heart was not firm toward him, neither were they stedfast in his covenant.

Psalm 78:32–37 — GOD’S WORD Translation (GW)

32 In spite of all this, they continued to sin, 

and they no longer believed in his miracles. 

33 He brought their days to an end like a whisper in the wind. 

He brought their years to an end in terror. 

34 When he killed ⸤some of⸥ them, ⸤the rest⸥ searched for him. 

They turned from their sins and eagerly looked for God. 

35 They remembered that God was their rock, 

that the Most High was their defender. 

36 They flattered him with their mouths 

and lied to him with their tongues.

They were not faithful to his promise.

their years in sudden disaster.

the rest began to seek Him;

they repented and searched for God.

35 They remembered that God was their rock,

the Most High God, their Redeemer.

they lied to Him with their tongues,

37 their hearts were insincere toward Him,

and they were unfaithful to His covenant.

their years with terror.

Even after they had seen the miracles he did, they still didn’t believe.

They gladly turned back to him again.

35 They remembered that God was their Rock.

They remembered that God Most High had set them free.

They lied to him when they spoke.

They weren’t faithful to the covenant he had made with them.

And did not believe in His wonderful works.

And returned and searched diligently for God;

35 And they remembered that God was their rock,

And the Most High God their Redeemer.

36 But they deceived Him with their mouth

And lied to Him with their tongue.

37 For their heart was not steadfast toward Him,

Nor were they faithful in His covenant.
