    and they rebelled by the sea,^(C) the Red Sea.^[a]

⁸ Yet he saved them^(A) for his name’s sake,^(B)
    to make his mighty power^(C) known.

    and did not wait for his plan to unfold.^(B)

²⁸ They yoked themselves to the Baal of Peor^(A)
    and ate sacrifices offered to lifeless gods;

³⁴ They did not destroy^(A) the peoples
    as the Lord had commanded^(B) them,
³⁵ but they mingled^(C) with the nations
    and adopted their customs.
³⁶ They worshiped their idols,^(D)
    which became a snare^(E) to them.
³⁷ They sacrificed their sons^(F)
    and their daughters to false gods.^(G)
38 They shed innocent blood,
    the blood of their sons^(H) and daughters,
whom they sacrificed to the idols of Canaan,
    and the land was desecrated by their blood.
