50He did not lessen his being angry with them, and he did not ◄spare their lives/prevent them from dying►; he sent a ◄plague/serious illness► that killed many of them.
51He also caused all the firstborn sons of the people of Egypt to die.
52Then he led his people out of Egypt like a shepherd leads his sheep SIM, and he guided them while they walked through the desert.
53He led them safely, and they were not afraid, but their enemies were drowned in the sea.
54Later he brought them to Canaan, his sacred land, to Zion Hill (OR, the hilly area) and by his power MTY he enabled them to conquer the people who were living there.
55He expelled the people-groups while his people were advancing; he allotted part of the land for each tribe to possess, and he gave to the Israeli people the houses of those people who had been expelled.
56However, the Israeli people rebelled against God, who is greater than any other god, and they did many evil things to see if they could do those things without God punishing them, and they did not obey his commandments.
57Instead, like their ancestors did, they rebelled against God and ◄were not loyal to/did not faithfully obey► him; they were as unreliable as a crooked arrow that does not go straight SIM.
58Because they worshiped carved images of their gods on the tops of hills, they caused God to become angry DOU.
59He saw what they were doing and became very angry, so he rejected the Israeli people.
