32 In spite of all this they sinned further

and did not believe his wonders.

33 And he consumed their days with futility n

their years with terror.o

34 When he killed some of them, then they sought him,

and repented and earnestly sought God.

35 And they remembered that God was their rock,

and God Most High their redeemer.

36 But they enticed him with their mouth

and lied to him with their tongue.

37 For their heart was not steadfast with him,

nor were they faithful to his covenant.

38 But he was compassionate; he pardonedp their guilt

and did not destroy them.

And many times he turned back his anger

and did not stir up all his wrath,

39 for he remembered that they were flesh,

a passing wind that does not return.

40 How often they rebelled against him in the wilderness

and vexed him in the wasteland!

41 So they again tested God

and distressedq the Holy One of Israel.

42 And they did not remember his ⌊power⌋r

⌊when⌋s he redeemed them from the enemy,

43 how he performedt his signs in Egypt

and his wonders in the region of Zoan,

44 when he turned their riversu to blood

so they could not drink from their streams.

45 He sent among them flies that devoured them

and frogs that destroyed them.

46 And he gave their crop to the locusts

and their labor to the locust.v

47 He destroyed their vines with hail

and their sycamore trees with sleet.w

48 He also handed their cattle over to the hail

and their livestock to the lightning bolts.

49 He sent against them his fierce anger,

rage and indignation and trouble,

a band of ⌊destroying⌋x angels.

50 He cleared a path for his anger.

He did not spare themy from death

but handed their life over to the plague.

51 And he struck down all the firstborn in Egypt,

the first of their virility in the tents of Ham.

52 Then he led out his people like sheep

and guided them like a herd in the wilderness.

53 And he led them safely and they were not afraid,

but the sea covered their enemies.

54 So he brought them to his holy territory,z

this mountain his right hand acquired.a

55 And he drove out nations before them

and allocated them for an inheritance by boundary line,

and settled the tribes of Israel in their tents.
