1 Your imperishable spirit is present in all things.
2 Therefore, Lord, little by little you correct those who have gone astray. You warn them by reminding them of how they have sinned, so that they can be set free from their wickedness and believe in you.
3 You hated the people who once lived in your holy land because of the evil deeds they were doing.
4 They were casting spells and using drugs, and performed unholy rites.
5 They murdered their own children without pity! Those who were initiated into their secret rituals feasted on human flesh and blood.
6 You were determined to use our ancestors to destroy parents who kill helpless beings.
