Psalm 106:37

Praise To Yahweh For His Faithfulness In Israel's History

³⁶
And served their idols,
Which became a [dreadful] snare to them.
³⁷ 
They even sacrificed their sons and their daughters to demons
³⁸
And shed innocent blood,
Even the blood of their sons and of their daughters,
Whom they sacrificed to the idols of Canaan;
And the land was polluted with their blood.
