59God heard this and was wroth, and greatly abhorred Israel,
60So that hee forsooke the habitation of Shilo, euen the Tabernacle where hee dwelt among men,
61And deliuered his power into captiuitie, and his beautie into the enemies hand.
62And hee gaue vp his people to the sworde, and was angrie with his inheritance.
63The fire deuoured their chosen men, and their maides were not praised.
64Their Priestes fell by the sworde, and their widowes lamented not.
65But the Lord awaked as one out of sleepe, and as a strong man that after his wine crieth out,
66And smote his enemies in the hinder parts, and put them to a perpetuall shame.
67Yet he refused the tabernacle of Ioseph, and chose not the tribe of Ephraim:
68But chose the tribe of Iudah, and mount Zion which he loued.
69And he built his Sanctuarie as an high palace, like the earth, which he stablished for euer.
70He chose Dauid also his seruant, and tooke him from the shepefolds.
