“But they flattered him with their mouth,and lied to him with their tongue.”
Psalm 78:36 (WEB)
Context Reading
34When he killed them, then they inquired after him.They returned and sought God earnestly. 35They remembered that God was their rock,the Most High God, their redeemer. 36But they flattered him with their mouth,and lied to him with their tongue. 37For their heart was not right with him,neither were they faithful in his covenant. 38But he, being merciful, forgave iniquity, and didn’t destroy them.Yes, many times he turned his anger away,and didn’t stir up all his wrath.
