And he gave them their request, but sent leanness into their soul.
| ויקנאו למשה במחנה לאהרן קדוש יהוה | 16 |

| לא-השמידו את-העמים-- אשר אמר יהוה להם | 34 |
They did not destroy the peoples, as Jehovah commanded them,
| ויתערבו בגוים וילמדו מעשיהם | 35 |

and served their idols, which became a snare to them.
| ויזבחו את-בניהם ואת-בנותיהם-- לשדים | 37 |
Yea, they sacrificed their sons and their daughters to demons,
