52. And he took away his own people as sheep: and guided them in the wilderness like a flock.
53. And he brought them out in hope, and they feared not: and the sea overwhelmed their enemies.
54. And he brought them into the mountain of his sanctuary: the mountain which his right hand had purchased. And he cast out the Gentiles before them: and by lot divided to them their land by a line of distribution.
55. And he made the tribes of Israel to dwell in their tabernacles.
56. Yet they tempted, and provoked the most high God: and they kept not his testimonies.
57. And they turned away, and kept not the covenant: even like their fathers they were turned aside as a crooked bow.
58. They provoked him to anger on their hills: and moved him to jealousy with their graven things.
59. God heard, and despised them, and he reduced Israel exceedingly as it were to nothing.
60. And he put away the tabernacle of Silo, his tabernacle where he dwelt among men.
