Psalm 78:56-58

Expanded Bible

⁵⁶ But they tested God
    and ·turned [rebelled] against God Most High;
    they did not ·keep [observe; guard] his ·rules [decrees; testimonies].
⁵⁷ They ·turned away [recoiled] and were disloyal just like their ·ancestors [fathers].
They ·were like [turned into] a ·crooked bow that does not shoot straight [slack bow; ^Cunreliable and ineffective].
⁵⁸ They made God angry ·by building places to worship gods [^Lwith their high places; ^Cworship sites associated with pagan worship or inappropriate worship of God; Deut. 12:2–3];
    they made him jealous with their idols.
