29 They did such terrible thingsthat you punished themwith a deadly disease.
30 But Phinehas helped them,and the sickness stopped.
31 Now he will alwaysbe highly honoured.

33 Then Moses got into troublefor speaking in anger.
34 Our Lord, they disobeyed youby refusing to destroythe nations.
35 Instead they were friendlywith those foreignersand followed their customs.
