Psalm 78:55-57

The Voice

⁵⁵He forced out the other nations which were living there before them,
and He redistributed the lands as an inheritance to His people;
He settled the tribes and families of Israel peaceably in their tents.

⁵⁶Even after all this, they disobeyed the Most High God
    and tested His patience
    and did not live by His commands.
⁵⁷Rather, they regressed to their fathers’ ways and lived faithlessly—disloyal traitors!
    They were as undependable and untrustworthy as a defective bow,
