Verse 16
O Lord{H136}, according to all thy righteousness{H6666}, I beseech thee, let thine anger{H639} and thy fury{H2534} be turned away{H7725}{(H8799)} from thy city{H5892} Jerusalem{H3389}, thy holy{H6944} mountain{H2022}: because for our sins{H2399}, and for the iniquities{H5771} of our fathers{H1}, Jerusalem{H3389} and thy people{H5971} are become a reproach{H2781} to all that are about{H5439} us.

they remembered{H2142}{(H8804)} not the multitude{H7230} of thy mercies{H2617}; but provoked{H4784}{(H8686)} him at the sea{H3220}, even at the Red{H5488} sea{H3220}. 8 Nevertheless he saved{H3467}{(H8686)} them for his name's{H8034} sake, that he might make his mighty power{H1369} to be known{H3045}{(H8687)}. 9 He rebuked{H1605}{(H8799)} the Red{H5488} sea{H3220} also, and it was dried up{H2717}{(H8799)}: so he led{H3212}{(H8686)} them through the depths{H8415}, as through the wilderness{H4057}. 10 And he saved{H3467}{(H8686)} them from the hand{H3027} of him that hated{H8130}{(H8802)} them, and redeemed{H1350}{(H8799)} them from the hand{H3027} of the enemy{H341}{(H8802)}. 11 And the waters{H4325} covered{H3680}{(H8762)} their enemies{H6862}: there was not one{H259} of them left{H3498}{(H8738)}. 12 Then believed{H539}{(H8686)} they his words{H1697}; they sang{H7891}{(H8799)} his praise{H8416}. 13 They soon{H4116}{(H8765)} forgat{H7911}{(H8804)} his works{H4639}; they waited{H2442}{(H8765)} not for his counsel{H6098}: 14 But lusted{H183}{(H8691)} exceedingly{H8378} in the wilderness{H4057}, and tempted{H5254}{(H8762)} God{H410} in the desert{H3452}. 15 And he gave{H5414}{(H8799)} them their request{H7596}; but sent{H7971}{(H8762)} leanness{H7332} into their soul{H5315}. 16 They envied{H7065}{(H8762)} Moses{H4872} also in the camp{H4264}, and Aaron{H175} the saint{H6918} of the LORD{H3068}. 17 The earth{H776} opened{H6605}{(H8799)} and swallowed up{H1104}{(H8799)} Dathan{H1885}, and covered{H3680}{(H8762)} the company{H5712} of Abiram{H48}. 18 And a fire{H784} was kindled{H1197}{(H8799)} in their company{H5712}; the flame{H3852} burned up{H3857}{(H8762)} the wicked{H7563}. 19 They made{H6213}{(H8799)} a calf{H5695} in Horeb{H2722}, and worshipped{H7812}{(H8691)} the molten image{H4541}. 20 Thus they changed{H4171}{(H8686)} their glory{H3519} into the similitude{H8403} of an ox{H7794} that eateth{H398}{(H8802)} grass{H6212}. 21 They forgat{H7911}{(H8804)} God{H410} their saviour{H3467}{(H8688)}, which had done{H6213}{(H8802)} great things{H1419} in Egypt{H4714}; 22 Wondrous works{H6381}{(H8737)} in the land{H776} of Ham{H2526}, and terrible things{H3372}{(H8737)} by the Red{H5488} sea{H3220}. 23 Therefore he said{H559}{(H8799)} that he would destroy{H8045}{(H8687)} them, had not{H3884} Moses{H4872} his chosen{H972} stood{H5975}{(H8804)} before{H6440} him in the breach{H6556}, to turn away{H7725}{(H8687)} his wrath{H2534}, lest he should destroy{H7843}{(H8687)} them. 24 Yea, they despised{H3988}{(H8799)} the pleasant{H2532} land{H776}, they believed{H539}{(H8689)} not his word{H1697}: 25 But murmured{H7279}{(H8735)} in their tents{H168}, and hearkened{H8085}{(H8804)} not unto the voice{H6963} of the LORD{H3068}. 26 Therefore he lifted up{H5375}{(H8799)} his hand{H3027} against them, to overthrow{H5307}{(H8687)} them in the wilderness{H4057}: 27 To overthrow{H5307}{(H8687)} their seed{H2233} also among the nations{H1471}, and to scatter{H2219}{(H8763)} them in the lands{H776}. 28 They joined{H6775}{(H8735)} themselves also unto Baalpeor{H1187}, and ate{H398}{(H8799)} the sacrifices{H2077} of the dead{H4191}{(H8801)}. 29 Thus they provoked him to anger{H3707}{(H8686)} with their inventions{H4611}: and the plague{H4046} brake in{H6555}{(H8799)} upon them. 30 Then stood up{H5975}{(H8799)} Phinehas{H6372}, and executed judgment{H6419}{(H8762)}: and so the plague{H4046} was stayed{H6113}{(H8735)}. 31 And that was counted{H2803}{(H8735)} unto him for righteousness{H6666} unto all{H1755} generations{H1755} for{H5704} evermore{H5769}. 32 They angered{H7107}{(H8686)} him also at the waters{H4325} of strife{H4808}{(H8677)}{H4809}, so that it went ill{H3415}{(H8799)} with Moses{H4872} for their sakes: 33 Because they provoked{H4784}{(H8689)} his spirit{H7307}, so that he spake unadvisedly{H981}{(H8762)} with his lips{H8193}. 34 They did not destroy{H8045}{(H8689)} the nations{H5971}, concerning whom the LORD{H3068} commanded{H559}{(H8804)} them: 35 But were mingled{H6148}{(H8691)} among the heathen{H1471}, and learned{H3925}{(H8799)} their works{H4639}. 36 And they served{H5647}{(H8799)} their idols{H6091}: which were a snare{H4170} unto them. 37 Yea, they sacrificed{H2076}{(H8799)} their sons{H1121} and their daughters{H1323} unto devils{H7700}, 38 And shed{H8210}{(H8799)} innocent{H5355} blood{H1818}, even the blood{H1818} of their sons{H1121} and of their daughters{H1323}, whom they sacrificed{H2076}{(H8765)} unto the idols{H6091} of Canaan{H3667}: and the land{H776} was polluted{H2610}{(H8799)} with blood{H1818}. 39 Thus were they defiled{H2930}{(H8799)} with their own works{H4639}, and went a whoring{H2181}{(H8799)} with their own inventions{H4611}. 40 Therefore was the wrath{H639} of the LORD{H3068} kindled{H2734}{(H8799)} against his people{H5971}, insomuch that he abhorred{H8581}{(H8762)} his own inheritance{H5159}. 41 And he gave{H5414}{(H8799)} them into the hand{H3027} of the heathen{H1471}; and they that hated{H8130}{(H8802)} them ruled{H4910}{(H8799)} over them. 42 Their enemies{H341}{(H8802)} also oppressed{H3905}{(H8799)} them, and they were brought into subjection{H3665}{(H8735)} under their hand{H3027}. 43 Many{H7227} times{H6471} did he deliver{H5337}{(H8686)} them; but they provoked{H4784}{(H8686)} him with their counsel{H6098}, and were brought low{H4355}{(H8799)} for their iniquity{H5771}. 44 Nevertheless he regarded{H7200}{(H8799)} their affliction{H6862}, when he heard{H8085}{(H8800)} their cry{H7440}: 45 And he remembered{H2142}{(H8799)} for them his covenant{H1285}, and repented{H5162}{(H8735)} according to the multitude{H7230} of his mercies{H2617}. 46 He made{H5414}{(H8799)} them also to be pitied{H7356} of{H6440} all those that carried them captives{H7617}{(H8802)}. 47 Save{H3467}{(H8685)} us, O LORD{H3068} our God{H430}, and gather{H6908}{(H8761)} us from among the heathen{H1471}, to give thanks{H3034}{(H8687)} unto thy holy{H6944} name{H8034}, and to triumph{H7623}{(H8692)} in thy praise{H8416}. 48 Blessed{H1288}{(H8803)} be the LORD{H3068} God{H430} of Israel{H3478} from everlasting{H5769} to everlasting{H5769}: and let all the people{H5971} say{H559}{(H8804)}, Amen{H543}.
