21Therefore Adonai sh'ma ·heard obeyed·, and was angry. A fire was kindled against Jacob Supplanter, anger also went up against Israel God prevails,
22because they didn’t believe in God, and didn’t trust in his yishu'ah ·salvation·.
23Yet he enjoined the skies above, and opened the doors of heaven.
24He rained down manna ·what is it· on them to eat, and gave them food from the sky.
25Man ate the bread of angels. He sent them food to the full.
26He caused the east wind to blow in the sky. By his power he guided the south wind.
27He rained also meat on them as the dust; winged birds as the sand of the seas.
28He let them fall in the middle of their camp, around their habitations.
29So they ate, and were well filled. He gave them their own desire.
30They didn’t turn from their cravings. Their food was yet in their mouths,
31when the anger of God went up against them, killed some of their fattest, and struck down the young men of Israel God prevails.
32For all this they still sinned, and didn’t believe in his wondrous works.
33Therefore he consumed their days in vanity, and their years in terror.
34When he killed them, then they inquired after him. They made teshuvah ·complete return· and sought God earnestly.
35They remembered that God was their rock, haElyon the Most High God, their redeemer.
36But they flattered him with their mouth, and lied to him with their tongue.
37For their heart was not right with him, neither were they faithful in his covenant.
38But he, being merciful, forgave iniquity, and didn’t destroy them. Yes, many times he turned his anger away, and didn’t stir up all his wrath.
39He remembered that they were but flesh, a wind that passes away, and does not come again.
40How often they rebelled against him in the wilderness, and grieved him in the desert!
41They turned again and tempted God, and provoked the haKadosh Isra'el the Holy One of God prevails.
42They didn’t remember his hand, nor the day when he redeemed them from the adversary;
43how he set his signs in Egypt Abode of slavery, his wonders in the field of Zoan,
44he turned their rivers into blood, and their streams, so that they could not drink.
45He sent among them swarms of flies, which devoured them; and frogs, which destroyed them.
46He gave also their increase to the caterpillar, and their labor to the locust.
47He destroyed their vines with hail, their sycamore fig trees with frost.
48He gave over their livestock also to the hail, and their flocks to hot thunderbolts.
49He threw on them the fierceness of his anger, wrath, indignation, and trouble, and a band of angels of evil.
50He made a path for his anger. He didn’t spare their soul from death, but gave their life over to the pestilence,
51and struck all the firstborn in Egypt Abode of slavery, the chief of their strength in the tents of Ham Hot, Intensity, Passion.
52But he led out his own people like sheep, and guided them in the wilderness like a flock.
53He led them safely, so that they were not afraid, but the sea overwhelmed their enemies.
54He brought them to the border of his sanctuary, to this mountain, which his right hand had taken.
55He also divorced and drove out the nations before them, allotted them for an inheritance by line, and made the tribes of Israel God prevails to dwell in their tents.
56Yet they tempted and rebelled against haElyon the Most High God, and didn’t keep his testimonies;
57but turned back, and dealt treacherously like their fathers. They were turned aside like a deceitful bow.
58For they provoked him to anger with their high places, and moved him to jealousy with their engraved images.
59When God sh'ma ·heard obeyed· this, he was angry, and greatly abhorred Israel God prevails;
60So that he abandoned the tent of Shiloh, the tent which he placed among men;
61and delivered his strength into captivity, his glory into the adversary’s hand.
62He also gave his people over to the sword, and was angry with his inheritance.
63Fire devoured their young men. Their virgins had no wedding song.
64Their priests fell by the sword, and their widows couldn’t weep.
65Then the Lord awakened as one out of sleep, like a mighty man who shouts by reason of wine.
66He struck his adversaries backward. He put them to a perpetual reproach.
67Moreover he rejected the tent of Joseph May he add, and didn’t choose the tribe of Ephraim Fruit,
68But chose the tribe of Judah Praised, Mount Zion Mountain ridge, Marking which he 'ahav ·affectionately loved·.
69He built his sanctuary like the heights, like the earth which he has established forever.
70He also chose David Beloved his servant, and took him from the sheepfolds;
71from following the ewes that have their young, he brought him to be the shepherd of Jacob Supplanter, his people, and Israel God prevails, his inheritance.
72So he was their shepherd according to the integrity of his heart, and guided them by the skillfulness of his hands.
