36 They served their idols,
    which became (A)a snare to them.
37 They (B)sacrificed their sons
    and their daughters to (C)the demons;
38 they poured out innocent blood,
    the blood of their sons and daughters,
whom they sacrificed to the idols of Canaan,
    and the land was (D)polluted with blood.
39 Thus they (E)became unclean by their acts,
    and (F)played the whore in their deeds.

40 Then (G)the anger of the Lord was kindled against (H)his people,
    and he abhorred his (I)heritage;
41 he (J)gave them into the hand of the nations,
    so that those who hated them ruled over them.
42 Their enemies (K)oppressed them,
    and they were brought into subjection under their power.
