Psalm 106:39
βThus were they defiled with their own works, and went a whoring with their own inventions.β
KJV
Read in Psalm 106Meaning
The language is covenantal and moral: the community's own actions corrupt its worship and identity.

The verse condemns the community's own chosen deeds; victimization is not moral guilt.
Reflection
Measure faithfulness by actual practices, especially treatment of vulnerable people.
