Psalm 106:36–43

They served their idols,

which became a snare to them.

They sacrificed their sons

and their daughters to the demons;

they poured out innocent blood,

the blood of their sons and daughters,

whom they sacrificed to the idols of Canaan,

and the land was polluted with blood.

Thus they became unclean by their acts,

and played the whore in their deeds.

Then the anger of the Lord was kindled against his people,

and he abhorred his heritage;

he gave them into the hand of the nations,

so that those who hated them ruled over them.

Their enemies oppressed them,

and they were brought into subjection under their power.

Many times he delivered them,

but they were rebellious in their purposes

and were brought low through their iniquity.

They worshiped their idols,

which became a snare to them.

They sacrificed their sons

and their daughters to false gods.

They shed innocent blood,

the blood of their sons and daughters,

whom they sacrificed to the idols of Canaan,

and the land was desecrated by their blood.

They defiled themselves by what they did;

by their deeds they prostituted themselves.

Therefore the Lord was angry with his people

and abhorred his inheritance.

He gave them into the hands of the nations,

and their foes ruled over them.

Their enemies oppressed them

and subjected them to their power.

Many times he delivered them,

but they were bent on rebellion

and they wasted away in their sin.

They served their idols,

which became a snare to them.

They sacrificed their sons and daughters to demons.

They shed innocent blood—

the blood of their sons and daughters

whom they sacrificed to the idols of Canaan;

so the land became polluted with blood.

They defiled themselves by their actions

and prostituted themselves by their deeds.

Therefore the Lord’s anger burned against his people,

and he abhorred his own inheritance.

He handed them over to the nations;

those who hated them ruled over them.

Their enemies oppressed them,

and they were subdued under their power.

He rescued them many times,

but they continued to rebel deliberately

and were beaten down by their iniquity.

They worshiped their idols,

which led to their downfall.

They even sacrificed their sons

and their daughters to the demons.

They shed innocent blood,

the blood of their sons and daughters.

By sacrificing them to the idols of Canaan,

they polluted the land with murder.

They defiled themselves by their evil deeds,

and their love of idols was adultery in the Lord’s sight.

That is why the Lord’s anger burned against his people,

and he abhorred his own special possession.

He handed them over to pagan nations,

and they were ruled by those who hated them.

Their enemies crushed them

and brought them under their cruel power.

Again and again he rescued them,

but they chose to rebel against him,

and they were finally destroyed by their sin.

and served their idols,

which became a snare to them.

They even sacrificed their sons and daughters

to the demons,

and they poured out innocent blood,

the blood of their sons and daughters,

whom they sacrificed to the idols of Canaan,

and so the land was defiled with the blood.

And they became unclean by their works,

and were unfaithful in their deeds.

So Yahweh’s anger burned against his people,

and he abhorred his inheritance.

Then he gave them into the hand of the nations,

and those who hated them ruled over them.

And their enemies oppressed them,

and they were subdued under their hand.

Many times he delivered them,

but they rebelled in their counsel,

and were brought low by their iniquity.

And they served their idols:

Which were a snare unto them.

Yea, they sacrificed their sons

And their daughters unto devils,

And shed innocent blood,

Even the blood of their sons and of their daughters,

Whom they sacrificed unto the idols of Canaan:

And the land was polluted with blood.

Thus were they defiled with their own works,

And went a whoring with their own inventions.

Therefore was the wrath of the Lord kindled against his people,

Insomuch that he abhorred his own inheritance.

And he gave them into the hand of the heathen;

And they that hated them ruled over them.

Their enemies also oppressed them,

And they were brought into subjection under their hand.

Many times did he deliver them;

But they provoked him with their counsel,

And were brought low for their iniquity.
