Psalm 78:40

Psalms of David in Metre 1650 (Scottish Psalter)

How often did they him provoke within the wilderness! And in the desert did him grieve with their rebelliousness!

See the chapter Copy

Because against the words of God they wrought rebelliously, And they the counsel did contemn of him that is most High:

Yet sinning more, in desert they provok'd the Highest One.

And might not, like their fathers, be a stiff rebellious race; A race not right in heart; with God whose sp'rit not stedfast was.
