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
1 Praise the LORD!
Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good,
for his loving kindness endures forever.
2 Who can utter the mighty acts of the LORD,
or fully declare all his praise?
3Blessed are those who keep justice.
Blessed is one who does what is right at all times.
4 Remember me, LORD, with the favor that you show to your people.
Visit me with your salvation,
5 that I may see the prosperity of your chosen,
that I may rejoice in the gladness of your nation,
that I may glory with your inheritance.
6We have sinned with our fathers.
We have committed iniquity.
We have done wickedly.
7 Our fathers didn’t understand your wonders in Egypt.
They didn’t remember the multitude of your loving kindnesses,
but were rebellious at the sea, even at the Sea of Suf.
8Nevertheless he saved them for his name’s sake,
that he might make his mighty power known.
9 He rebuked the Sea of Suf also, and it was dried up;
so he led them through the depths, as through a desert.
10 He saved them from the hand of him who hated them,
and redeemed them from the hand of the enemy.
11 The waters covered their adversaries.
There was not one of them left.
12Then they believed his words.
They sang his praise.
13 They soon forgot his works.
They didn’t wait for his counsel,
14but gave in to craving in the desert,
and tested God in the wasteland.
15 He gave them their request,
but sent leanness into their soul.
16 They envied Moses also in the camp,
and Aaron, the LORD’s holy one.
17 The earth opened and swallowed up Dathan,
and covered the company of Abiram.
18 A fire was kindled in their company.
The flame burned up the wicked.
19 They made a calf in Horeb,
and worshiped a molten image.
20Thus they exchanged their glory
for an image of a bull that eats grass.
21 They forgot God, their Savior,
who had done great things in Egypt,
22 wondrous works in the land of Ham,
and awesome things by the Sea of Suf.
23 Therefore he said that he would destroy them,
had Moses, his chosen, not stood before him in the breach,
to turn away his wrath, so that he wouldn’t destroy them.
24Yes, they despised the pleasant land.
They didn’t believe his word,
25 but murmured in their tents,
and didn’t listen to the LORD’s voice.
26Therefore he swore to them
that he would overthrow them in the wilderness,
27 that he would overthrow their offspring among the nations,
and scatter them in the lands.
28They joined themselves also to Baal Peor,
and ate the sacrifices of the dead.
29Thus they provoked him to anger with their deeds.
The plague broke in on them.
30 Then Phinehas stood up and executed judgment,
so the plague was stopped.
31 That was credited to him for righteousness,
for all generations to come.
32 They angered him also at the waters of Meribah,
so that Moses was troubled for their sakes;
33 because they were rebellious against his spirit,
he spoke rashly with his lips.
34 They didn’t destroy the peoples,
as the LORD commanded them,
35but mixed themselves with the nations,
and learned their works.
36 They served their idols,
which became a snare to them.
37Yes, they sacrificed their sons and their daughters to demons.
38 They shed innocent blood,
even the blood of their sons and of their daughters,
whom they sacrificed to the idols of Canaan.
The land was polluted with blood.
39Thus they were defiled with their works,
and prostituted themselves in their deeds.
40 Therefore the LORD burned with anger against his people.
He abhorred his inheritance.
41 He gave them into the hand of the nations.
Those who hated them ruled over them.
42 Their enemies also oppressed them.
They were brought into subjection under their hand.
43He rescued them many times,
but they were rebellious in their counsel,
and were brought low in their iniquity.
44Nevertheless he regarded their distress,
when he heard their cry.
45 He remembered for them his covenant,
and repented according to the multitude of his loving kindnesses.
46 He made them also to be pitied
by all those who carried them captive.
47 Save us, LORD, our God,
gather us from among the nations,
to give thanks to your holy name,
to triumph in your praise!
48 Blessed be the LORD, the God of Israel,
from everlasting even to everlasting!
Let all the people say, “Amen.”
Praise the LORD!
