Psalm 78:55–64

55  fHe cast out the heathen also before them,

And gdivided them an inheritance by hline,

And made the tribes of Israel to dwell in their tents.

56  iYet they ktempted and lprovoked the most high God,

And kept not his testimonies:

57  But mturned back, and dealt unfaithfully like their fathers:

They were turned aside nlike a deceitful bow.

58  For they oprovoked him to anger with their phigh places,

And qmoved him to jealousy with their rgraven images.

59  When God heard this, he swas wroth,

And greatly tabhorred Israel:

60  uSo that he forsook the vtabernacle of wShiloh,

xThe tent which he uplaced among men;

61  And delivered yhis strength into zcaptivity,

And his glory into the enemy’s hand.

62  He agave his people over also bunto the sword;

And cwas wroth with his inheritance.

63  The fire consumed their young men;

And their maidens were not †given to marriage.

64  dTheir priests fell by the sword;

eAnd their widows fmade no lamentation.
