Psalms 106:24-31 Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB)

24. They despised the pleasant landand did not believe His promise.

25. They grumbled in their tentsand did not listen to the Lord’s voice.

26. So He raised His hand against them with an oaththat He would make them fall in the desert

27. and would disperse their descendants among the nations,scattering them throughout the lands.

28. They aligned themselves with Baal of Peorand ate sacrifices offered to lifeless gods.

29. They provoked the Lord with their deeds,and a plague broke out against them.

30. But Phinehas stood up and intervened,and the plague was stopped.

31. It was credited to him as righteousnessthroughout all generations to come.
