Psalms 78:60
58 They enraged Him with their high places and provoked His jealousy with their idols.
59 On hearing it, God was furious and rejected Israel completely.
He abandoned the tabernacle of Shiloh, the tent He had pitched among men.
61 He delivered His strength to captivity, and His splendor to the hand of the adversary.
62 He surrendered His people to the sword because He was enraged by His heritage.
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.
