54He brought them to his own sacred border, Even to this mountain which his right hand had gained.
55He cast out the nations before them, And divided their land by a measuring-line, as an inheritance, And caused the tribes of Israel to dwell in their tents.
56Yet they tempted and provoked God, the Most High, And kept not his statutes;
57Like their fathers they were faithless, and turned back; They turned aside, like a deceitful bow.
58They provoked his anger by their high places, And stirred up his jealousy by their graven images.
