Psalms [Praises] 78:48-69

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.
