53. And He led them on safely, so that they did not fear;But the sea overwhelmed their enemies.
54. And He brought them to His holy border,This mountain which His right hand had acquired.
55. He also drove out the nations before them,Allotted them an inheritance by survey,And made the tribes of Israel dwell in their tents.
56. Yet they tested and provoked the Most High God,And did not keep His testimonies,
57. But turned back and acted 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 carved images.
59. When God heard this, He was furious,And greatly abhorred Israel,
60. So that He forsook the tabernacle of Shiloh,The tent He had placed among men,
61. And delivered His strength into captivity,And His glory into the enemy’s hand.
