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!

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!
