Psalms 106:33
31 It was credited to him as righteousness for endless generations to come.
32 At the waters of Meribah they angered the LORD, and trouble came to Moses because of them.
For they rebelled against His Spirit, and Moses spoke rashly with his lips.
34 They did not destroy the peoples as the LORD had commanded them,
35 but they mingled with the nations and adopted their customs.
Here the Bible tells a story about someone else. Ask yourself what it can say to us today. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
