Psalm 78:56-58
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
B
56 But they tested and rebelled against God Most High,
    his decrees they did not observe.
57 They turned disloyal, faithless like their ancestors;
    they proved false like a slack bow.
58 They enraged him with their high places,
    and with their idols provoked him[a] to jealous anger.(A)
