Tehillim 106
106
1Praise Hashem! O give thanks unto Hashem; for He is tov; for His chesed endureth l'olam.
2Who can speak of the gevurot (mighty acts) of Hashem? Who can show forth all His tehillah (praise)?
3Ashrei (happy, blessed) are they who are shomrei mishpat, and he that doeth tzedakah at all times.
4Remember me, Hashem, with the favor that Thou bearest unto Thy people; O visit me with Thy Yeshu'ah (salvation);
5That I may see the good of Bechireicha (Thy chosen ones), that I may rejoice in the simchah of Thy nation, that I may glory with Thine nachalah (the people of Thy inheritance).
6We have sinned with Avoteinu, we have committed iniquity, we have done wickedly.
7Avoteinu had no seichal concerning Thy nifla'ot (wonders) in Mitzrayim; they remembered not the multitude of Thy mercies but provoked Him at the yam, even at the Yam Suf.
8Nevertheless He saved them for the sake of Shmo, that He might make His gevu'rot (mighty power) to be known.
9He rebuked the Yam Suf also, and it dried up; so He led them through the tehomot, as through the midbar.
10And He saved them from the yad of him that hated them, and He acted to make the go'el redemption from the yad of the oyev (enemy).
11And the mayim covered their enemies; there was not echad (one) of them left surviving.
12Then believed they in His Devarim; they sang His tehillah.
13Then they hurried, they forgot His ma'asim; they waited not for His etzah (counsel, advice, wisdom);
14But lusted exceedingly in the midbar, and tempted G-d in the desert.
15And He gave them their she'elah (request); but sent leanness into their nefesh.
16They envied Moshe also in the machaneh, and Aharon the kadosh Hashem (Aharon the holy one of Hashem).
17Eretz opened and swallowed up Datan and covered over the Adat Aviram (the company of Aviram).
18And an eish was kindled in their edah (assembly); the flame burned up the resha'im.
19They made an egel (a calf) in Chorev, and worshiped a massekhah (molden image).
20Thus they exchanged their kavod for a tavnit shor (likeness of an ox) that eateth esev (grass).
21They forgot G-d their Moshi'a, Who had done gedolot in Mitzrayim;
22Nifla'ot (wondrous works) in Eretz Cham, and nora'ot (awesome things) by the Yam Suf.
23Therefore He said that He would destroy them, had not Moshe His bechir (chosen one) stood before Him in the peretz (breach), to turn away His wrath, lest He should destroy them.
24Then they despised the eretz chemdah (desirable land); they believed not His Devar;
25But murmured in their ohalim, and paid heed not unto the kol (voice) of Hashem.
26Therefore#106:26 in oath He lifted up His yad against them, that He would overthrow them in the midbar;
27To make their zera fall also among the Goyim, and to scatter them among the aratzot (lands).
28They joined themselves also unto Ba'al-Pe'or, and ate the zivkhei mesim (sacrifices offered to the dead).
29Thus they provoked Him to anger with their inventions; and the magefah (plague) broke out among them.
30Then stood up Pinchas, and interposed; and so the magefah (plague) was halted.
31And that was counted unto him for tzedakah l'dor vador ad olam.
32They angered Him also at the waters of Merivah, so that it went ill with Moshe on their account;
33Because they provoked His Ruach#106:33 Hakodesh and he#106:33 Moshe spoke unadvisedly with his sfatayim (lips).
34They did not destroy the amim (peoples), as Hashem commanded them;
35But they mingled with the Goyim, and learned their ma'asim (works, customs).
36And they served their atzabim (idols); which were a mokesh (snare) unto them.
37And, they sacrificed their banim and their banot unto shedim (demons),
38And they shed dahm naki (innocent blood), even the dahm of their banim and of their banot, whom they sacrificed unto the atzabei Kena'an (idols of Canaan); and HaAretz was polluted with blood-guilt.
39Thus they made themselves tameh with their own ma'asim, and went a-whoring with their own inventions.
40Therefore was the wrath of Hashem kindled against His people, insomuch that He abhorred His own nachalah.
41And He gave them into the yad Goyim; and they that hated them ruled over them.
42Their oyevim also oppressed them, and they were brought into subjection under their yad.
43Many times did He deliver them; but they provoked Him with their etzah (counsel), and so perished in their avon (iniquity).
44Nevertheless He regarded their affliction, when He heard their rinnah (cry of grief);
45And He remembered for their sake His Brit, and relented according to the multitude of His chasadim (lovingkindnesses).
46He made them also to be pitied with rachamim by all those that carried them away as captives.
47Hoshieini (save us), Hashem Eloheinu, and gather us from among the Goyim, to give thanks unto Thy Shem Kadosh, and to glory in Thy tehillah (praise).
48Baruch Hashem Elohei Yisroel min haOlam v'ad haOlam; and let kol HaAm say, Omein. Praise Hashem!

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!’
