13
They quickly forgot His works;
They did not wait for His plan,
14
But became lustfully greedy in the wilderness,
And put God to the test in the desert.
15
So He gave them their request,
But sent a wasting disease among them.
16
When they became envious of Moses in the camp,
And of Aaron, the holy one of the Lord,
17
The earth opened and swallowed up Dathan,
And engulfed the company of Abiram.
18
And a fire blazed up in their company;
The flame consumed the wicked.
19
They made a calf in Horeb,
And worshiped a cast metal image.
20
So they exchanged their glory
For the image of an ox that eats grass.
21
They forgot God their Savior,
Who had done great things in Egypt,
22
Wonders in the land of Ham,
And awesome things by the Red Sea.
23
Therefore He said that He would destroy them,
If Moses, His chosen one, had not stood in the gap before Him,
To turn away His wrath from destroying them.
24
Then they rejected the pleasant land;
They did not believe His word,
25
But grumbled in their tents;
They did not listen to the voice of the Lord.
26
Therefore He swore to them
That He would have them fall in the wilderness,
27
And that He would bring down their descendants among the nations,
And scatter them in the lands.
28
They also followed Baal-peor,
And ate sacrifices offered to the dead.
29
So they provoked Him to anger with their deeds,
And a plague broke out among them.
30
Then Phinehas stood up and intervened,
And so the plague was brought to a halt.
31
And it was credited to him as righteousness,
To all generations forever.
32
They also provoked Him to wrath at the waters of Meribah,
So that it went badly for Moses on their account.
33
Because they were rebellious against His Spirit,
He spoke rashly with his lips.
