New Testament

Psalms 78:58-66 Modern English Version (MEV)

58. For they provoked Him to anger with their high placesand moved Him to jealousy with their graven images.

59. When God heard this, He was full of wrathand greatly rejected Israel

60. so that He left the tabernacle at Shiloh,the tent where He lived among people,

61. and delivered His strength to captivityand His glory into the enemy’s hand.

62. He gave His people over also to the sword;He was enraged with His inheritance.

63. The fire consumed their young men,and their maidens were not given to marriage in song.

64. Their priests fell by the sword,and their widows made no lamentation.

65. Then the Lord awoke as one out of sleep,and like a mighty man who shouts because of wine.

66. He routed His enemies back,and He made them a perpetual reproach.
