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!

Psalms 106
106
PSALM 106
1Hallelujah! Give ye thanks unto Jehovah; for he is good; for his loving-kindness endureth for ever. 2Who can utter the mighty acts of Jehovah? who can shew forth all his praise? 3Blessed are they that keep justice, and he that doeth righteousness at all times. 4Remember me, O Jehovah, with thy favour toward thy people; visit me with thy salvation: 5That I may see the prosperity of thy chosen ones, that I may rejoice in the joy 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 in Egypt considered not thy wondrous works; they remembered not the multitude of thy loving-kindnesses; but they rebelled at the sea, at the Red Sea. 8Yet he saved them for his name's sake, that he might make known his might. 9And he rebuked the Red Sea, and it dried up; and he led them through the deeps as through a 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 oppressors: there was not one of them left. 12Then believed they his words; they sang his praise.
13They soon forgot his works; they waited not for his counsel: 14And they lusted exceedingly in the wilderness, and tempted ·God#GodHebrew: El in the desert. 15Then he gave them their request, but sent leanness into their soul. 16And they envied Moses in the camp, and Aaron, the saint of Jehovah. 17The earth opened and swallowed up Dathan, and covered the company of Abiram; 18And fire was kindled in their company; a flame burned up the wicked. 19They made a calf in Horeb, and did homage to a molten image; 20And they changed their glory into the similitude of an ox that eateth grass. 21They forgot ·God#GodHebrew: El their Saviour, who had done great things in Egypt, 22Wondrous works in the land of Ham, terrible things by the Red Sea. 23And he said that he would destroy them, had not Moses, his chosen, stood before him in the breach, to turn away his fury, lest he should destroy them. 24And they despised the pleasant land; they believed not his word, 25But murmured in their tents: they hearkened not unto the voice of Jehovah. 26And he lifted up his hand to them, that he would make them fall in the wilderness; 27And that he would make their seed fall among the nations, and disperse them through the countries. 28And they joined themselves unto Baal-Peor, and ate the sacrifices of the dead; 29And they provoked him to anger with their doings; and a plague broke out among them. 30Then stood up Phinehas and executed judgment, and the plague was stayed; 31And that was reckoned unto him for righteousness, from generation to generation, for evermore. 32And they moved him to wrath at the waters of Meribah, and it went ill with Moses on their account; 33For they provoked his spirit, so that he spoke unadvisedly with his lips.
34They did not destroy the peoples, as Jehovah commanded them; 35But they mingled with the nations, and learned their works; 36And they served their idols; and they were a snare unto them: 37And they sacrificed their sons and their daughters unto demons, 38And shed innocent blood, the blood of their sons and of their daughters, whom they sacrificed unto the idols of Canaan; and the land was polluted with blood. 39And they were defiled with their works, and went a-whoring in their doings. 40Then was the anger of Jehovah kindled against his people, and he abhorred his inheritance; 41And he gave them into the hand of the nations; and they that hated them ruled over them: 42And their enemies oppressed them, and they were brought into subjection under their hand. 43Often did he deliver them; but as for them they provoked him by their counsel, and they were brought low by their iniquity. 44But he regarded their distress, when he heard their cry; 45And he remembered for them his covenant, and repented according to the multitude of his loving-kindnesses; 46And he caused them to find compassion of all those that had carried them captives. 47Save us, Jehovah our God#GodHebrew: Elohim and gather us from among the nations, to give thanks unto thy holy name, and to triumph in thy praise. 48Blessed be Jehovah the God#GodHebrew: Elohim of Israel, from eternity and to eternity! And let all the people say, Amen! Hallelujah!
