14 A lust came vpo them in the wildernesse, so that they tempted God in the deserte.
15 Yet he gaue them their desyre, and sent the ynough at their willes.
16 They angred Moses in the tetes, and Aaron the saynte of the LORDE.
17 So the earth opened & swalowed vp Dathan, and couered the congregacio of Abiram.
18 The fyre was kyndled in their company, the flame brent vp the vngodly.
19 They made a calfe in Horeb, and worshipped the molte ymage.
20 Thus they turned his glory into the similitude of a calfe, yt eateth haye.
21 They forgat God their Sauior, which had done so greate thinges in Egipte.
22 Wonderous workes in the londe of Ham, and fearfull thinges in the reed see.
23 So he sayde he wolde haue destroyed them, had not Moses his chosen stonde before him in yt gappe: to turne awaie his wrothfull indignacion, lest he shulde destroye the.
24 Yee they thought scorne of yt pleasaunt londe, and gaue no credence vnto his worde.
25 But murmured in their tentes, and herkened not vnto the voyce of the LORDE.
26 Then lift he vp his honde agaynst them, to ouerthrowe them in the wildernes.
27 To cast out their sede amonge the nacions, and to scater them in the londes.
28 They ioyned them selues vnto Baal Peor, and ate the offeringes of the deed.
29 Thus they prouoked him vnto anger with their owne invecions, and the plage was greate amonge them.
30 Then stode vp Phineas and excuted iustice, & so the plage ceased.
31 And that was counted vnto him for rightuousnesse, amonge all posterites for euermore.
32 They angerd him also at the waters of strife, so that Moses was punyshed for their sakes.
33 Because they prouoked his sprete, and he tolde the planely with his lippes.
