Psalms 106
- 1Praise the Lord. O give thanks to the Lord. For he is good. For his mercy lasts forever.
- 2Who can tell the mighty acts of the Lord? Who can tell of all his praise?
- 3Blessed are those who keep judgment, and he who does righteousness at all times.
- 4Remember me, O Lord, with the favor that you bear to your people: O visit me with your salvation.
- 5That I may see the good of your chosen, that I may rejoice in the happiness of your nation, that I may glory with your inheritance.
- 6We have sinned with our fathers, we have done wrong, we have done wickedly.
- 7Our fathers did not understand your wonders in Egypt, they did not remember your many mercies, but provoked him at the sea, even at the Red sea.
- 8But he saved them for his name's sake, that he might make his mighty power to be known.
- 9He rebuked the Red sea also, and it was dried up: so he led them through the depths, as through the wilderness.
- 10And he saved them from the hand of him who hated them, and redeemed them from the hand of the enemy.
- 11And the waters covered their enemies: there was not one of them left.
- 12Then believed they his words, they sang his praise.
- 13They soon forgot his works, they did not wait for his counsel:
- 14But lusted greatly in the wilderness, and tempted God in the desert.
- 15And he gave them their request. But he sent wasting disease into their soul.
- 16They envied Moses also in the camp, and Aaron the saint of the Lord.
- 17The earth opened and swallowed up Dathan and covered the company of Abiram.
- 18And a fire burned in their company, the flame burned up the wicked.
- 19They made a calf in Horeb, and worshiped the metal idol.
- 20So they changed their glory into the likeness of an ox that eats grass.
- 21They forgot God their savior, which had done great things in Egypt.
- 22Wonderful works in the land of Ham, and awesome things by the Red sea.
- 23He said he would destroy them, had Moses, his chosen one, not stood in the gap before him to turn away his anger, so that he would not destroy them.
- 24Yes, they despised the pleasant land, they did not believe his word:
- 25But complained in their tents, and did not listen to the voice of the Lord.
- 26Therefore he lifted up his hand against them, to overthrow them in the wilderness:
- 27To overthrow their descendants also among the nations, and to scatter them in the lands.
- 28They joined themselves also to Baalpeor, and ate the sacrifices of the dead.
- 29So they provoked him to anger with their deeds: and the plague broke in on them.
- 30Then stood up Phinehas, and executed judgment: and so the plague was stopped.
- 31And that was counted to him for righteousness to all generations forever.
- 32They angered him also at the waters of Meribah, so that it went ill with Moses for their sakes:
- 33Because they provoked his spirit, so that he spoke unadvisedly with his lips.
- 34They did not destroy the nations, the ones the Lord had commanded them about:
- 35But were mixed among the nations, and learned their works.
- 36And they served their idols: which were a snare to them.
- 37Yes, they sacrificed their sons and their daughters to demons,
- 38And shed innocent blood, even the blood of their sons and of their daughters, who they sacrificed to the idols of Canaan: and the land was polluted with blood.
- 39So they were defiled with their own works, and were unfaithful through their own deeds.
- 40Therefore the anger of the Lord burned against his people, so much that he hated his own inheritance.
- 41And he gave them into the hand of the nations, and those who hated them ruled over them.
- 42Their enemies also oppressed them, and they were brought low under their power.
- 43Many times did he deliver them. But they provoked him with their counsel, and were brought low for their wrongdoing.
- 44But he regarded their suffering, when he heard their cry:
- 45And he remembered for them his covenant, and repented according to his many mercies.
- 46He made them also to be pitied of all those that carried them captives.
- 47Save us, O Lord our God, and gather us from among the nations, to give thanks to your holy name, and to triumph in your praise.
- 48Blessed be the Lord God of Israel from everlasting to everlasting: and let all the people say, Amen. Praise the Lord.
