25 But in their tents they murmured,not heark'ning to the Lord.
26 Therefore in desert them to slayhe lifted up his hand:
27 'Mong nations to o'erthrow their seed,and scatter in each land.
28 They unto Baal-peor didthemselves associate;The sacrifices of the deadthey did profanely eat.
29 Thus, by their lewd inventions,they did provoke his ire;And then upon them suddenlythe plague brake in as fire.
30 Then Phin'has rose, and justice did,and so the plague did cease;
31 That to all ages counted wasto him for righteousness.
