- And he led them on safely, so that they feared not: but the sea overwhelmed their enemies.
- And he brought them to the border of his sanctuary, even to this mountain, which his right hand had purchased.
- He cast out the heathen also before them, and divided them an inheritance by line, and made the tribes of Israel to dwell in their tents.
- Yet they tempted and provoked the most high God, and kept not his testimonies:
- But turned back, and dealt unfaithfully like their fathers: they were turned aside like a deceitful bow.
|
- He guided them safely, so they were unafraid; but the sea engulfed their enemies.
- Thus he brought them to the border of his holy land, to the hill country his right hand had taken.
- He drove out nations before them and allotted their lands to them as an inheritance; he settled the tribes of Israel in their homes.
- But they put God to the test and rebelled against the Most High; they did not keep his statutes.
- Like their fathers they were disloyal and faithless, as unreliable as a faulty bow.

- So that he forsook the tabernacle of Shiloh, the tent which he placed among men;
- And delivered his strength into captivity, and his glory into the enemy's hand.

|
- They angered him with their high places; they aroused his jealousy with their idols.
- When God heard them, he was very angry; he rejected Israel completely.
- He abandoned the tabernacle of Shiloh, the tent he had set up among men.
- He sent the ark of his might into captivity, his splendor into the hands of the enemy.
- He gave his people over to the sword; he was very angry with his inheritance.
|
- The fire consumed their young men; and their maidens were not given to marriage.
- Their priests fell by the sword; and their widows made no lamentation.
|
- Fire consumed their young men, and their maidens had no wedding songs;
- their priests were put to the sword, and their widows could not weep.
