Psalm 106:16

Verse 16 of 48. The 106th of 150 chapters in Psalms, in Poetry and Wisdom.

12Then they believed his words. They sang his praise.

13They soon forgot his works. They didn’t wait for his counsel,

14but gave in to craving in the desert, and tested God in the wasteland.

15He gave them their request, but sent leanness into their soul.

16They envied Moses also in the camp, and Aaron, the LORD’s saint.

17The earth opened and swallowed up Dathan, and covered the company of Abiram.

18A fire was kindled in their company. The flame burned up the wicked.

19They made a calf in Horeb, and worshiped a molten image.

20Thus they exchanged their glory for an image of a bull that eats grass.
