Psalm 106
1¶ Halelu-JAH. O give thanks unto the Lord, for he is good, for his mercy endures for ever.
2Who can utter the mighty acts of the Lord? Who can show forth all his praise?
3Happy are those that keep judgment and he that does righteousness at all times.
4Remember me, O Lord, with the favour that thou dost bear unto thy people; O visit me with thy saving health,
5that I may see the good of thy chosen, that I may rejoice in the gladness of thy nation, that I may glory with thine inheritance.
6¶ We have sinned with our fathers, we have committed iniquity; we have done wickedly.
7Our fathers did not understand thy wonders in Egypt; they did not remember the multitude of thy mercies but rebelled by the sea, even at the Red Sea.
8Nevertheless he saved them for his name’s sake, that he might make his mighty power to be known.
9He reprehended the Red Sea also, and it was dried up, so he led them through the depths, as through the wilderness.
10And he saved them from the hand of him that hated them and redeemed them from the hand of the enemy.
11And the waters covered their enemies: there was not one of them left.
12Then they believed his words; they sang his praise.
13¶ They became rash. They soon forgot his works; they waited not for his counsel:
14They gave themselves over to lust in the wilderness and tempted God in the desert.
15And he gave them their request, but sent leanness into their soul.
16Then they envied Moses in the camp and Aaron the saint of the Lord.
17The earth opened and swallowed up Dathan and covered the company of Abiram.
18And a fire was kindled in their company; the flame burned up the wicked.
19They made a calf in Horeb and worshipped the molten image.
20Thus they changed their glory into the similitude of an ox that eats grass.
21They forgot the God of their saving health, who had done great things in Egypt,
22wondrous works in the land of Ham, and terrible things upon the Red Sea.
23Therefore he said that he would destroy them, had not Moses his chosen stood before him in the breach, to turn away his wrath lest he should destroy them.
24And they despised the pleasant land; they did not believe his word:
25But murmured in their tents and did not hearken unto the voice of the Lord.
26Therefore he lifted up his hand against them, to overthrow them in the wilderness,
27to overthrow their seed also among the Gentiles, and to scatter them in the lands.
28They also joined themselves unto Baalpeor and ate the sacrifices for the dead.
29Thus they provoked him to anger with their inventions; and the plague broke in upon them.
30Then Phinehas stood up and executed judgment, and so the plague was stayed.
31And that was counted unto him for righteousness from generation to generation for evermore.
32They angered him also at the waters of strife, so that it went ill with Moses for their sakes:
33Because they provoked his spirit to rebel, and he spoke it with his lips.
34¶ They did not destroy the nations, concerning whom the Lord commanded them:
35But were mingled among the Gentiles and learned their works.
36And they served their idols, which were a snare unto them.
37 Yea, they sacrificed their sons and their daughters unto devils
38and shed innocent blood, even the blood of their sons and of their daughters, whom they sacrificed unto the idols of Canaan; and the land was polluted with blood.
39Thus they were defiled with their own works and went a whoring with their own inventions.
40Therefore was the wrath of the Lord kindled against his people, insomuch that he abhorred his own inheritance.
41And he gave them into the hand of the Gentiles, and those that hated them ruled over them.
42Their enemies oppressed them, and they were brought into subjection under their hand.
43He delivered them many times, but they rebelled at his counsel and were brought low for their iniquity.
44Nevertheless he would look upon their affliction and hear their cry
45and remember his covenant with them and repent according to the multitude of his mercies.
46He also caused those that carried them captives to have mercy upon them.
47Save us, O Lord our God, and gather us from among the Gentiles, that we might lift up thy holy name, that we might glory in thy praise.
48Blessed be the Lord God of Israel from everlasting to everlasting; and let all the people say, Amen. Halelu-JAH.

PSALM 106
1Hallelujah! Give ye thanks unto Jehovah; for he is good; for his loving-kindness endureth for ever. 2Who can utter the mighty acts of Jehovah? who can shew forth all his praise? 3Blessed are they that keep justice, and he that doeth righteousness at all times. 4Remember me, O Jehovah, with thy favour toward thy people; visit me with thy salvation: 5That I may see the prosperity of thy chosen ones, that I may rejoice in the joy of thy nation, that I may glory with thine inheritance.
6We have sinned with our fathers, we have committed iniquity, we have done wickedly. 7Our fathers in Egypt considered not thy wondrous works; they remembered not the multitude of thy loving-kindnesses; but they rebelled at the sea, at the Red Sea. 8Yet he saved them for his name's sake, that he might make known his might. 9And he rebuked the Red Sea, and it dried up; and he led them through the deeps as through a wilderness. 10And he saved them from the hand of him that hated them, and redeemed them from the hand of the enemy. 11And the waters covered their oppressors: there was not one of them left. 12Then believed they his words; they sang his praise.
13They soon forgot his works; they waited not for his counsel: 14And they lusted exceedingly in the wilderness, and tempted ·God#GodHebrew: El in the desert. 15Then he gave them their request, but sent leanness into their soul. 16And they envied Moses in the camp, and Aaron, the saint of Jehovah. 17The earth opened and swallowed up Dathan, and covered the company of Abiram; 18And fire was kindled in their company; a flame burned up the wicked. 19They made a calf in Horeb, and did homage to a molten image; 20And they changed their glory into the similitude of an ox that eateth grass. 21They forgot ·God#GodHebrew: El their Saviour, who had done great things in Egypt, 22Wondrous works in the land of Ham, terrible things by the Red Sea. 23And he said that he would destroy them, had not Moses, his chosen, stood before him in the breach, to turn away his fury, lest he should destroy them. 24And they despised the pleasant land; they believed not his word, 25But murmured in their tents: they hearkened not unto the voice of Jehovah. 26And he lifted up his hand to them, that he would make them fall in the wilderness; 27And that he would make their seed fall among the nations, and disperse them through the countries. 28And they joined themselves unto Baal-Peor, and ate the sacrifices of the dead; 29And they provoked him to anger with their doings; and a plague broke out among them. 30Then stood up Phinehas and executed judgment, and the plague was stayed; 31And that was reckoned unto him for righteousness, from generation to generation, for evermore. 32And they moved him to wrath at the waters of Meribah, and it went ill with Moses on their account; 33For they provoked his spirit, so that he spoke unadvisedly with his lips.
34They did not destroy the peoples, as Jehovah commanded them; 35But they mingled with the nations, and learned their works; 36And they served their idols; and they were a snare unto them: 37And they sacrificed their sons and their daughters unto demons, 38And shed innocent blood, the blood of their sons and of their daughters, whom they sacrificed unto the idols of Canaan; and the land was polluted with blood. 39And they were defiled with their works, and went a-whoring in their doings. 40Then was the anger of Jehovah kindled against his people, and he abhorred his inheritance; 41And he gave them into the hand of the nations; and they that hated them ruled over them: 42And their enemies oppressed them, and they were brought into subjection under their hand. 43Often did he deliver them; but as for them they provoked him by their counsel, and they were brought low by their iniquity. 44But he regarded their distress, when he heard their cry; 45And he remembered for them his covenant, and repented according to the multitude of his loving-kindnesses; 46And he caused them to find compassion of all those that had carried them captives. 47Save us, Jehovah our God#GodHebrew: Elohim and gather us from among the nations, to give thanks unto thy holy name, and to triumph in thy praise. 48Blessed be Jehovah the God#GodHebrew: Elohim of Israel, from eternity and to eternity! And let all the people say, Amen! Hallelujah!
