Tehillim (Psalms) 106
106
1Praise Yah! Oh, give thanks to יהוה, For He is good! For His loving-commitment is everlasting.
2Who does relate the mighty acts of יהוה? Or declare all His praise?
3Blessed are those who guard right-ruling, Who do righteousness at all times!
4Remember me, O יהוה, in the acceptance of Your people; Visit me with Your deliverance,
5To see the good of Your chosen ones, To rejoice in the gladness of Your nation, To make my boast with Your inheritance.
6We have sinned with our fathers, We have acted perversely, We have done wrong.
7Our fathers in Mitsrayim did not understand Your wonders; They did not remember Your many loving-commitments, But rebelled by the sea, the Sea of Reeds.
8But He saved them for His Name’s sake, To make known His might.
9And He rebuked the Sea of Reeds, and it dried up; And He led them through the depths, Through a wilderness.
10And He saved them from the hand of the hater, And redeemed them from the hand of the enemy.
11And waters covered their adversaries; Not one of them was left.
12Then they believed His words; They sang His praise.
13They soon forgot His works; They did not wait for His counsel,
14But greedily lusted in the wilderness, And tried Ěl in the desert.
15And He gave them their request, But sent leanness within their being.
16And they were jealous of Mosheh in the camp, Of Aharon, the set-apart one of יהוה,
17Then the earth opened up and swallowed Dathan, And covered the company of Aḇiram.
18And a fire burned in their company; A flame consumed the wrong.
19They made a calf in Ḥorĕḇ, And bowed down to a moulded image.
20Thus they changed My esteem Into the form of an ox that eats grass.
21They forgot Ěl their Saviour, The Doer of great deeds in Mitsrayim,
22Of wonders in the land of Ḥam, Of awesome deeds by the Sea of Reeds.
23Then He said that He would destroy them, Had not Mosheh His chosen one stood before Him in the breach, To turn away His wrath from destroying them.
24They then despised the pleasant land; They did not believe His word,
25And they grumbled in their tents, They did not listen to the voice of יהוה.
26So He lifted up His hand in an oath against them, To make them fall in the wilderness,
27And to make their seed fall among the nations, And to scatter them in the lands.
28And they joined themselves to Ba‛al Pe‛or, And ate slaughterings made to the dead.
29Thus they provoked Him with their deeds, And the plague broke out among them.
30Then Pineḥas stood up and intervened, And the plague was stopped.
31And that was reckoned to him for righteousness To all generations forever.
32And they provoked wrath at the waters of Meriḇah, And Mosheh suffered on account of them;
33Because they embittered his spirit, And he spoke rashly with his lips.
34They did not destroy the peoples, As יהוה had commanded them,
35But mixed with the nations And learned their works,
36And served their idols, And they became a snare to them.
37And they slaughtered their sons And their daughters to demons,
38And they shed innocent blood, The blood of their sons and daughters, Whom they slaughtered to the idols of Kena‛an; And the land was defiled with blood.
39So they became unclean by their own works, And went whoring by their own deeds.
40And the wrath of יהוה burned against His people, And He loathed His own inheritance.
41Then He gave them into the hand of the nations, And those who hated them ruled over them.
42And their enemies oppressed them, And they were humbled under their hand.
43Many times He delivered them; But they rebelled in their plans, So they were brought low for their crookedness.
44But He would look on their distress, When He heard their cry,
45And remember His covenant for their sake, And relent according to the greatness of His loving-commitment.
46And He would let them find compassion, Before all those holding them captive.
47Save us, O יהוה our Elohim, And gather us from among the nations, To give thanks to Your set-apart Name, To exult in Your praise.
48Blessed be יהוה Elohim of Yisra’ĕl From everlasting to everlasting! And all the people shall say, “Amĕn!” Praise Yah!

Praise to Yahweh for His Faithfulness in Israel’s History
1Praise Yah.#Hebrew hallelujah Give thanks to Yahweh, for he is good,
for his loyal love is forever.
2Who can utter the mighty deeds of Yahweh,
or proclaim all his praise?
3Blessed are those who observe justice,
he who does righteousness at all times.
4Remember me, O Yahweh, when you show favor to your people.
Look after me when you deliver,
5that I may see the good done your chosen ones,
to be glad in the joy of your nation,
to glory together with your inheritance.
6We have sinned along with our ancestors.#Or “fathers”
We have committed iniquity; we have incurred guilt.
7Our ancestors#Or “fathers” in Egypt did not understand your wonderful works.
They did not remember your many acts of loyal love,
and so they rebelled by the sea at the Red Sea.#Literally “sea of reed”
8Yet he saved them for the sake of his name,
to make known his might.
9So he rebuked the Red Sea,#Literally “sea of reed” and it dried up,
and he led them through the deep as through a desert.
10Thus he saved them from the hand of the hater
and redeemed them from the hand of the enemy.
11But waters covered their adversaries;
not one of them survived.
12Then they believed his words;
they sang his praise.
13They quickly forgot his works;
they did not wait for his counsel.
14And they craved intensely#Literally “craved a craving” in the wilderness,
and tested God in the desert.
15So he gave to them their request,
but he sent leanness into their souls.#Hebrew “soul” or “inner self”
16And they were jealous of Moses in the camp,
and of Aaron, the holy one of Yahweh.
17The earth opened and swallowed up Dathan,
and it covered over the gang of Abiram.
18Also fire burned in their assembly;
the flame devoured the wicked.
19They made a calf at Horeb
and bowed down to a cast image.
20And so they exchanged their glory
for an image of an ox that eats grass.
21They forgot God their Savior,
who had done great things in Egypt,
22wonders in the land of Ham,
awesome deeds by the Red Sea.#Literally “sea of reed”
23So he said he would exterminate them,
had not Moses, his chosen one,
stood in the breach before him,
to reverse his wrath from destroying them.
24Then they refused the desirable land;
they did not believe his word,
25but grumbled in their tents.
They did not obey the voice of Yahweh.
26So he made an oath#Literally “he lifted his hand,” an act accompanying an oath against them,
to make them drop in the wilderness,
27and to disperse#Or “let drop” their descendants#Literally “seed” among the nations
and to scatter them among the lands.
28They also attached themselves to Baal of Peor,
and they ate sacrifices offered to the dead.#Hebrew “sacrifices of dead”
29Thus they provoked to anger by their deeds,
and a plague broke out among them.
30Then Phinehas stood up and intervened,
and so the plague was stopped,
31and it was reckoned to him as righteousness
throughout all generations.#Literally “for a generation and a generation”
32They also angered God at the waters of Meribah,
and it went badly for Moses on account of them,
33because they rebelled against his Spirit,#A slightly different verbal form yields “they embittered his spirit”
and he spoke thoughtlessly with his lips.
34They did not exterminate the peoples,
as Yahweh had commanded them, #Hebrew “said to them”
35but they mingled with the nations
and learned their works,
36and served their idols,
which became#Hebrew “and they became” a snare to them.
37They even sacrificed their sons and daughters
to the demons,
38and they poured out innocent blood,
the blood of their sons and daughters,
whom they sacrificed to the idols of Canaan,
and so the land was defiled with the blood.#Hebrew “bloods,” that is, bloodshed
39And they became unclean by their works,
and were unfaithful in their deeds.
40So Yahweh’s anger burned against his people,
and he abhorred his inheritance.
41Then he gave them into the hand of the nations,
and those who hated them ruled over them.
42And their enemies oppressed them,
and they were subdued under their hand.
43Many times he delivered them,
but they rebelled in their counsel,
and were brought low by their iniquity.
44Yet he looked upon their distress
when he heard their cry.
45And he remembered his covenant with them,
and relented based on the abundance of his loyal love.
46And he let them find compassion#Literally “gave them to have mercies”
before all their captors.
47Save us, O Yahweh our God,
and gather us from the nations,
so that we may give thanks to your holy name
and boast in your praise.
48Blessed is Yahweh, the God of Israel,
from everlasting and to everlasting.
And let all the people say, “Amen!”
Praise Yah.#Hebrew hallelujah
