Psalms 106:23 in Context — Psalms 106

21 Esqueceram-se de Deus, o salvador deles, que tinha feito coisas grandiosas no Egito,

22 Maravilhas na terra de Cam, coisas temíveis no mar Vermelho.

23 Por isso ele disse que teria os destruído, se Moisés, seu escolhido, não tivesse se posto na fenda diante dele, para desviar sua ira, para não os destruir.

24 Eles também desprezaram a terra desejável, [e] não creram na palavra dele.

25 E ao invés disso murmuraram em suas tendas, [e] não deram ouvidos à voz do SENHOR.
