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.

Psalms 106
106
1Praise ye Jah, give thanks to Jehovah, For good, for to the age, [is] His kindness.
2Who doth utter the mighty acts of Jehovah? Soundeth all His praise?
3O the happiness of those keeping judgment, Doing righteousness at all times.
4Remember me, O Jehovah, With the favour of Thy people, Look after me in Thy salvation.
5To look on the good of Thy chosen ones, To rejoice in the joy of Thy nation, To boast myself with Thine inheritance.
6We have sinned with our fathers, We have done perversely, we have done wickedly.
7Our fathers in Egypt, Have not considered wisely Thy wonders, They have not remembered The abundance of Thy kind acts, And provoke by the sea, at the sea of Suph.
8And He saveth them for His name's sake, To make known His might,
9And rebuketh the sea of Suph, and it is dried up, And causeth them to go Through depths as a wilderness.
10And He saveth them from the hand Of him who is hating, And redeemeth them from the hand of the enemy.
11And waters cover their adversaries, One of them hath not been left.
12And they believe in His words, they sing His praise,
13They have hasted — forgotten His works, They have not waited for His counsel.
14And they lust greatly in a wilderness, And try God in a desert.
15And He giveth to them their request, And sendeth leanness into their soul.
16And they are envious of Moses in the camp, Of Aaron, Jehovah's holy one.
17Earth openeth, and swalloweth up Dathan, And covereth over the company of Abiram.
18And fire burneth among their company, A flame setteth on fire the wicked.
19They make a calf in Horeb, And bow themselves to a molten image,
20And change their Honour Into the form of an ox eating herbs.
21They have forgotten God their saviour, The doer of great things in Egypt,
22Of wonderful things in the land of Ham, Of fearful things by the sea of Suph.
23And He saith to destroy them, Unless Moses, His chosen one, Had stood in the breach before Him, To turn back His wrath from destroying.
24And they kick against the desirable land, They have not given credence to His word.
25And they murmur in their tents, They have not hearkened to the voice of Jehovah.
26And He lifteth up His hand to them, To cause them to fall in a wilderness,
27And to cause their seed to fall among nations, And to scatter them through lands.
28And they are coupled to Baal-Peor, And eat the sacrifices of the dead,
29And they provoke to anger by their actions, And a plague breaketh forth upon them,
30And Phinehas standeth, and executeth judgment, And the plague is restrained,
31And it is reckoned to him to righteousness, To all generations — unto the age.
32And they cause wrath by the waters of Meribah, And it is evil to Moses for their sakes,
33For they have provoked his spirit, And he speaketh wrongfully with his lips.
34They have not destroyed the peoples, As Jehovah had said to them,
35And mix themselves among nations, and learn their works,
36And serve their idols, And they are to them for a snare.
37And they sacrifice their sons And their daughters to destroyers,
38And they shed innocent blood — Blood of their sons and of their daughters, Whom they have sacrificed to idols of Canaan, And the land is profaned with blood.
39And they are defiled with their works, And commit whoredom in their habitual doings.
40And the anger of Jehovah Is kindled against His people, And He doth abominate His inheritance.
41And giveth them into the hand of nations, And those hating them rule over them,
42And their enemies oppress them, And they are humbled under their hand.
43Many times He doth deliver them, And they rebel in their counsel, And they are brought low in their iniquity.
44And He looketh on their distress When He heareth their cry,
45And remembereth for them His covenant, And is comforted, According to the abundance of His kindness.
46And He appointeth them for mercies Before all their captors.
47Save us, O Jehovah our God, and gather us from the nations, To give thanks to Thy holy name, To glory in Thy praise.
48Blessed [is] Jehovah, God of Israel, From the age even unto the age. And all the people said, ‘Amen, praise Jah!’
