Psalm 78:56-58
Contemporary English Version

56 (A) But the people tested
    God Most High,
and they refused
    to obey his laws.
57 They were as unfaithful
    as their ancestors,
and they were as crooked
    as a twisted arrow.
58 God demanded all their love,
but they made him angry
    by worshiping idols.

57 But turned back, and dealt unfaithfully like their fathers: they were turned aside like a deceitful bow.

58 For they provoked him to anger with their high places, and moved him to jealousy with their graven images.
