6. In my anger I trampled whole nations and shattered them. I poured out their lifeblood on the ground.”
7. I will tell of the Lord's unfailing love;I praise him for all he has done for us.He has richly blessed the people of Israelbecause of his mercy and constant love.
8. The Lord said, “They are my people; they will not deceive me.” And so he saved them

10. but they rebelled against him and made his Holy Spirit sad. So the Lord became their enemy and fought against them.
