3 Blessed are those who observe what is right ♦︎
and always do what is just.
35 They mingled with the nations ♦︎
and learned to follow their ways,
36 So that they worshipped their idols, ♦︎
which became to them a snare.
37 Their own sons and daughters ♦︎
they sacrificed to evil spirits.
38 They shed innocent blood, ♦︎
the blood of their sons and daughters,
39 Which they offered to the idols of Canaan, ♦︎
and the land was defiled with blood.
40 Thus were they polluted by their actions, ♦︎
and in their wanton deeds went whoring after other gods.
41 Therefore was the wrath of the Lord
kindled against his people, ♦︎
and he abhorred his inheritance.
