5 But most of them did not please God. So they died, and their bodies were scattered all over the desert.
6 What happened to them is a warning to keep us from wanting to do the same evil things.
7 They worshipped idols, just as the Scriptures say, “The people sat down to eat and drink. Then they got up to dance around.” So don't worship idols.

9 And don't try to test Christ, as some of them did and were later bitten by poisonous snakes.
10 Don't even grumble, as some of them did and were killed by the destroying angel.
