20 Thus they changed their gloryInto the image of an ox that eats grass.
21 They forgot God their Savior,Who had done great things in Egypt,
22 Wondrous works in the land of Ham,Awesome things by the Red Sea.
23 Therefore He said that He would destroy them,Had not Moses His chosen one stood before Him in the breach,To turn away His wrath, lest He destroy them.
24 Then they despised the pleasant land;They did not believe His word,
25 But complained in their tents,And did not heed the voice of the Lord.
26 Therefore He raised His hand in an oath against them,To overthrow them in the wilderness,
