Psalms 78:39-44

³⁹He remembered/considered that they were only humans who die; they disappear quickly SIM, like a wind that blows by and then is gone.

⁴⁰Many times our ancestors rebelled against God in the desert and caused him to become very sad.

⁴¹Many times they did evil things, to find out if they could do those things without God punishing them. They frequently caused the holy God of Israel to become disgusted/sad.

⁴²They forgot about his great power, and they ◄forgot/did not think► about the time when he rescued them from their enemies.

⁴³They forgot about when he performed many miracles in the area near Zoan city in Egypt.

⁴⁴He caused the Nile River (OR, their sources of water) to become red like blood, with the result that the people of Egypt had no water to drink.
