16 Jehovah now said to Moses: “Look! You are about to die,* and this people will begin to commit spiritual prostitution with the foreign gods that are around them in the land to which they are going.+ They will forsake me+ and break my covenant that I have made with them.+

15 When Jeshʹu·run* grew fat, he kicked out rebelliously.

You have grown fat, you have become stout, you have become bloated.+

11 So the Israelites did what was bad in the eyes of Jehovah and served* the Baʹals.+

20 Now there was a troublemaker named Sheʹba+ the son of Bichʹri, a Benʹja·min·ite. He blew the horn+ and said: “We have no share in David, and we have no inheritance in the son of Jesʹse.+ Everyone to his gods,* O Israel!”+

26 “However, they became disobedient and rebelled against you+ and turned their back on your Law.* They killed your prophets who warned them so as to bring them back to you, and they committed acts of great disrespect.+
