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!

106
Joy in Forgiveness of Israel’s Sins
1Praise the Lord!
#1 Chr. 16:34, 41Oh, give thanks to the Lord, for He is good!
For His mercy endures forever.
2Who can utter the mighty acts of the Lord?
Who can declare all His praise?
3Blessed are those who keep justice,
And he who #Ps. 15:2does righteousness at #(Gal. 6:9)all times!
4#Ps. 119:132Remember me, O Lord, with the favor You have toward Your people.
Oh, visit me with Your salvation,
5That I may see the benefit of Your chosen ones,
That I may rejoice in the gladness of Your nation,
That I may glory with Your inheritance.
6#1 Kin. 8:47; (Ezra 9:7; Neh. 1:7; Jer. 3:25; Dan. 9:5)We have sinned with our fathers,
We have committed iniquity,
We have done wickedly.
7Our fathers in Egypt did not understand Your wonders;
They did not remember the multitude of Your mercies,
#Ex. 14:11, 12But rebelled by the sea—the Red Sea.
8Nevertheless He saved them for His name’s sake,
#Ex. 9:16That He might make His mighty power known.
9#Ex. 14:21; Ps. 18:15; Is. 51:10; Nah. 1:4He rebuked the Red Sea also, and it dried up;
So #Is. 63:11–13He led them through the depths,
As through the wilderness.
10He #Ex. 14:30saved them from the hand of him who hated them,
And redeemed them from the hand of the enemy.
11#Ex. 14:27, 28; 15:5The waters covered their enemies;
There was not one of them left.
12#Ex. 15:1–21Then they believed His words;
They sang His praise.
13#Ex. 15:24; 16:2; 17:2They soon forgot His works;
They did not wait for His counsel,
14#Num. 11:4; 1 Cor. 10:6But lusted exceedingly in the wilderness,
And tested God in the desert.
15#Num. 11:31And He gave them their request,
But #Is. 10:16sent leanness into their soul.
16When #Num. 16:1–3they envied Moses in the camp,
And Aaron the saint of the Lord,
17#Num. 16:31, 32; Deut. 11:6The earth opened up and swallowed Dathan,
And covered the faction of Abiram.
18#Num. 16:35, 46A fire was kindled in their company;
The flame burned up the wicked.
19#Ex. 32:1–4; Deut. 9:8; Acts 7:41They made a calf in Horeb,
And worshiped the molded image.
20Thus #Jer. 2:11; Rom. 1:23they changed their glory
Into the image of an ox that eats grass.
21They forgot God their Savior,
Who had done great things in Egypt,
22Wondrous works in the land of Ham,
Awesome things by the Red Sea.
23#Ex. 32:10; Deut. 9:19Therefore He said that He would destroy them,
Had not Moses His chosen one #Ezek. 22:30stood before Him in the breach,
To turn away His wrath, lest He destroy them.
24Then they despised #Deut. 8:7; Jer. 3:19; Ezek. 20:6the pleasant land;
They #Deut. 1:32; 9:23; (Heb. 3:18, 19)did not believe His word,
25#Num. 14:2, 27; Deut. 1:27But complained in their tents,
And did not heed the voice of the Lord.
26#Ezek. 20:15, 16; (Heb. 3:11, 18)Therefore He raised His hand in an oath against them,
#Num. 14:28–30To overthrow them in the wilderness,
27#Lev. 26:33; Ezek. 20:23To overthrow their descendants among the nations,
And to scatter them in the lands.
28#Num. 25:3; Deut. 4:3; Hos. 9:10They joined themselves also to Baal of Peor,
And ate sacrifices made to the dead.
29Thus they provoked Him to anger with their deeds,
And the plague broke out among them.
30#Num. 25:7, 8Then Phinehas stood up and intervened,
And the plague was stopped.
31And that was accounted to him #Gen. 15:6; Num. 25:11–13for righteousness
To all generations forevermore.
32#Num. 20:3–13; Ps. 81:7They angered Him also at the waters of strife,
#Deut. 1:37; 3:26So that it went ill with Moses on account of them;
33#Num. 20:3, 10Because they rebelled against His Spirit,
So that he spoke rashly with his lips.
34#Judg. 1:21They did not destroy the peoples,
#(Deut. 7:2, 16); Judg. 2:2Concerning whom the Lord had commanded them,
35#Judg. 3:5, 6But they mingled with the Gentiles
And learned their works;
36#Judg. 2:12They served their idols,
#Deut. 7:16Which became a snare to them.
37#(Deut. 12:31; 32:17, 18); 2 Kin. 16:3; 17:17; Ezek. 16:20, 21; (1 Cor. 10:20)They even sacrificed their sons
And their daughters to #(Lev. 17:7)demons,
38And shed innocent blood,
The blood of their sons and daughters,
Whom they sacrificed to the idols of Canaan;
And #(Num. 35:33; Is. 24:5; Jer. 3:1, 2)the land was polluted with blood.
39Thus they were #(Lev. 18:24); Ezek. 20:18defiled by their own works,
And #(Lev. 17:7; Num. 15:39); Judg. 2:17; Hos. 4:12played the harlot by their own deeds.
40Therefore #Judg. 2:14; Ps. 78:59the wrath of the Lord was kindled against His people,
So that He abhorred #(Deut. 9:29; 32:9)His own inheritance.
41And #Judg. 2:14; (Neh. 9:27)He gave them into the hand of the Gentiles,
And those who hated them ruled over them.
42Their enemies also oppressed them,
And they were brought into subjection under their hand.
43#Judg. 2:16; (Neh. 9:27)Many times He delivered them;
But they rebelled in their counsel,
And were brought low for their iniquity.
44Nevertheless He regarded their affliction,
When #Judg. 3:9; 6:7; 10:10He heard their cry;
45#(Lev. 26:41, 42)And for their sake He remembered His covenant,
And #Judg. 2:18relented #Ps. 69:16according to the multitude of His mercies.
46#1 Kin. 8:50; (2 Chr. 30:9); Ezra 9:9; Neh. 1:11; Jer. 42:12He also made them to be pitied
By all those who carried them away captive.
47#1 Chr. 16:35, 36Save us, O Lord our God,
And gather us from among the Gentiles,
To give thanks to Your holy name,
To triumph in Your praise.
48#Ps. 41:13Blessed be the Lord God of Israel
From everlasting to everlasting!
And let all the people say, “Amen!”
Praise the Lord!
