Psalms 78:32

30 Yet before they had filled their desire, with the food still in their mouths,

31 God’s anger flared against them, and He put to death their strongest and subdued the young men of Israel.

In spite of all this, they kept on sinning; despite His wonderful works, they did not believe.

33 So He ended their days in futility, and their years in sudden terror.

34 When He slew them, they would seek Him; they repented and searched for God.

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.
