6th and 7th Bible
Memory Work
Psalm 106:14-18 and 28-29
 
14             In the desert they gave in to their craving; in the wasteland they put God to the test.
15             So He gave them what they asked for, but sent a wasting disease upon them.
16             In the camp they grew envious of Moses and of Aaron, who was consecrated to the Lord.
17             The earth opened up and swallowed Dathan; it buried the company of Abiram.
18             Fire blazed among their followers; a flame consumed the wicked.
 
 
28             They yoked themselves to Baal of Peor and ate sacrifices offered to lifeless gods;
29             They provoked the Lord to anger by their wicked deeds, and a plague broke out among them.
