Psalms 78:53-61 English Revised Version (ERV)

53. And he led them safely, so that they feared not: but the sea overwhelmed their enemies.

54. And he brought them to the border of his sanctuary, to this mountain, which his right hand had purchased.

55. He drove out the nations also before them, and allotted them for an inheritance by line, and made the tribes of Israel to dwell in their tents.

56. Yet they tempted and rebelled against the Most High God, and kept not his testimonies;

57. But turned back, and dealt treacherously like their fathers: they were turned aside like a deceitful bow.

58. For they provoked him to anger with their high places, and moved him to jealousy with their graven images.

59. When God heard this, he was wroth, and greatly abhorred Israel:

60. So that he forsook the tabernacle of Shiloh, the tent which he placed among men;

61. And delivered his strength into captivity, and his glory into the adversary's hand.
