Psalms 106
106
Adonai Still Faithful to Israel
1Halleluyah! Praise Adonai, for He is good, for His lovingkindness endures forever.
2Who can speak of Adonai’s mighty acts or declare His praise?
3Blessed are those who maintain justice, who do what is right at all times.
4Remember me, Adonai, when You show favor to Your people. Visit me with Your salvation,
5so I may behold the prosperity of Your chosen ones, exult in the joy of Your nation, and give praise with Your inheritance.
6We have sinned with our fathers, we have committed iniquity, we have acted wickedly.
7Our fathers in Egypt did not ponder Your wonders. Nor did they remember Your abundant lovingkindness, but rebelled by the sea— at the Sea of Reeds.
8Yet He saved them for His Name’s sake, to make His mighty power known.
9He rebuked the Sea of Reeds and it dried up, and He led them through the depths as through a wilderness.
10So He saved them from the hand of those who hated them, redeemed them from the enemy’s hand.
11The waters covered their adversaries— not one of them was left.
12Then they believed His words. They were singing His praise.
13How quickly they forgot His works, and would not wait for His counsel!
14In the wilderness they craved ravenously, in the desert they tested God.
15So He gave them what they asked for, but sent a wasting disease among them.
16Then they envied Moses in the camp, and also Aaron, the holy one of Adonai.
17The earth opened up, swallowed Dathan, and covered the company of Abiram.
18Also a fire blazed in their company, a flame consumed the wicked.
19They made a calf in Horeb and worshipped a molten image.
20Thus they exchanged their glory for an image of a grass-eating ox.
21They forgot God their Savior, who had done great things in Egypt—
22miracles in the land of Ham, awesome things by the Sea of Reeds.
23So He commanded their extermination, had not Moses, His chosen one, stood in the breach before Him, to turn His wrath from destroying them.
24Then they scorned the pleasing land— they did not trust in His word.
25Instead, they grumbled in their tents. They would not listen to Adonai’s voice.
26Therefore He swore to them that He would make them fall in the desert,
27and disperse their offspring among the nations, and scatter them through the lands.
28Then they yoked themselves to Baal of Peor, and ate the sacrifices of dead things.
29So they provoked Him with their deeds, and a plague broke out among them.
30But Phinehas stood up and intervened, so the plague was stopped.
31It was credited to him as righteousness, from generation to generation forever.
32By the waters of Meribah they angered Him, and trouble came on Moses because of them.
33For they embittered his spirit and he spoke rashly with his lips.
34They did not destroy the peoples, as Adonai had commanded them.
35Instead they mingled with the nations and learned their practices.
36They worshipped their idols, which became a snare to them.
37They even sacrificed their sons and their daughters to demons.
38They shed innocent blood—the blood of their sons and their daughters, sacrificed to the idols of Canaan. So the land was desecrated with blood.
39So they defiled themselves by their deeds, and prostituted themselves by their practices.
40Therefore the anger of Adonai was kindled against His people, and He abhorred His inheritance.
41He handed them to the nations— those who hated them ruled over them.
42Their enemies oppressed them, so they were subdued under their hand.
43Many times He delivered them, but they kept rebelling deliberately, and so sank low into their iniquity.
44Yet He saw their distress, when He heard their cry,
45remembered His covenant to them, and relented in the greatness of His mercy.
46He caused them to be pitied in the presence of all their captors.
47Save us, Adonai our God, and gather us from the nations, so we may praise Your holy Name and triumph in Your praise.
48Blessed be Adonai, the God of Israel, from everlasting even to everlasting! Let all the people say, “Amen!” Halleluyah!

Psalm 106
106
1Praise ye the LORD. O give thanks unto the LORD; for he is good:
For his mercy endureth for ever.
2Who can utter the mighty acts of the LORD?
Who can shew forth all his praise?
3Blessed are they that keep judgment,
And he that doeth righteousness at all times.
4Remember me, O LORD, with the favour that thou bearest unto thy people:
O visit me with thy salvation;
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.
6We have sinned with our fathers,
We have committed iniquity, we have done wickedly.
7Our fathers understood not thy wonders in Egypt; They remembered not the multitude of thy mercies;
But provoked him at 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 rebuked 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 believed they his words;
They sang his praise.
13They soon forgat his works;
They waited not for his counsel:
14But lusted exceedingly in the wilderness,
And tempted God in the desert.
15And he gave them their request;
But sent leanness into their soul.
16They envied Moses also 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 eateth grass.
21They forgat God their saviour,
Which had done great things in Egypt;
22Wondrous works in the land of Ham,
And terrible things by 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.
24Yea, they despised the pleasant land,
They believed not his word:
25But murmured in their tents,
And hearkened not 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 nations,
And to scatter them in the lands.
28They joined themselves also unto Baalpeor,
And ate the sacrifices of the dead.
29Thus they provoked him to anger with their inventions:
And the plague brake in upon them.
30Then stood up Phinehas, and executed judgment:
And so the plague was stayed.
31And that was counted unto him for righteousness
Unto all generations 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,
So that he spake unadvisedly with his lips.
34They did not destroy the nations,
Concerning whom the LORD commanded them:
35But were mingled among
the heathen, and learned their works.
36And they served their idols: Which were a snare unto them.
37Yea, 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 were they 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 heathen;
And they that hated them ruled over them.
42Their enemies also oppressed them,
And they were brought into subjection under their hand.
43Many times did he deliver them;
But they provoked him with their counsel, and were brought low for their iniquity.
44Nevertheless he regarded their affliction,
When he heard their cry:
45And he remembered for them his covenant, and repented according to the multitude of his mercies.
46He made them also to be pitied of all those that carried them captives.
47Save us, O LORD our God, and gather us from among the heathen,
To give thanks unto thy holy name, and to triumph in thy praise.
48Blessed be the LORD God of Israel from everlasting to everlasting:
And let all the people say, Amen.
Praise ye the LORD.
