Psalms 106:37-38

Context

106:37 They sacrificed their sons and daughters to demons. 1 

106:38 They shed innocent blood –

the blood of their sons and daughters,

whom they sacrificed to the idols of Canaan.

The land was polluted by bloodshed. 2 

1 tn The Hebrew term שֵׁדִים (shedim, “demons”) occurs only here and in Deut 32:17. Some type of lesser deity is probably in view.

2 sn Num 35:33-34 explains that bloodshed defiles a land.
