Psalms 78:30-34

³⁰They were not estranged from their longing, yet was their food in their mouth:

³¹When the wrath of God ascended against them, and he slew some of the fattest of them, and the young men of Israel did he strike down.

³²With all this they sinned again, and believed not in his wonders.

³³Therefore he caused their days to come to an end in nought, and their years in dread.

³⁴When he slew them, then did they seek him, and they returned and inquired earnestly after God.
