Psalms 106
1 Praise ye the Lord. Praise ye the Lord because he is good, for his mercie endureth for euer.
| הללויה הודו ליהוה כי טוב כי לעולם חסדו׃ |
2 Who can expresse the noble actes of the Lord, or shewe forth all his prayse?
| מי ימלל גבורות יהוה ישמיע כל תהלתו׃ |
3 Blessed are they that keepe iudgement, and doe righteousnesse at all times.
| אשרי שמרי משפט עשה צדקה בכל עת׃ |
4 Remember me, O Lord, with the fauour of thy people: visite me with thy saluation,
| זכרני יהוה ברצון עמך פקדני בישועתך׃ |
5 That I may see the felicitie of thy chosen, and reioyce in the ioy of thy people, and glorie with thine inheritance.
| לראות בטובת בחיריך לשמח בשמחת גויך להתהלל עם נחלתך׃ |
6 We haue sinned with our fathers: we haue committed iniquitie, and done wickedly.
| חטאנו עם אבותינו העוינו הרשענו׃ |
7 Our fathers vnderstoode not thy wonders in Egypt, neither remembred they the multitude of thy mercies, but rebelled at the Sea, euen at the red sea.
| אבותינו במצרים לא השכילו נפלאותיך לא זכרו את רב חסדיך וימרו על ים בים סוף׃ |
8 Neuerthelesse he saued them for his Names sake, that he might make his power to be knowen.
| ויושיעם למען שמו להודיע את גבורתו׃ |
9 And he rebuked the red Sea, and it was dryed vp, and he led them in the deepe, as in the wildernesse.
| ויגער בים סוף ויחרב ויוליכם בתהמות כמדבר׃ |
10 And he saued them from ye aduersaries hand, and deliuered them from ye hand of the enemie.
| ויושיעם מיד שונא ויגאלם מיד אויב׃ |
11 And the waters couered their oppressours: not one of them was left.
| ויכסו מים צריהם אחד מהם לא נותר׃ |
12 Then beleeued they his wordes, and sang prayse vnto him.
| ויאמינו בדבריו ישירו תהלתו׃ |
13 But incontinently they forgate his workes: they wayted not for his counsell,
| מהרו שכחו מעשיו לא חכו לעצתו׃ |
14 But lusted with concupiscence in the wildernes, and tempted God in the desert.
| ויתאוו תאוה במדבר וינסו אל בישימון׃ |
15 Then he gaue them their desire: but he sent leannesse into their soule.
| ויתן להם שאלתם וישלח רזון בנפשם׃ |
16 They enuied Moses also in the tentes, and Aaron the holy one of the Lord.
| ויקנאו למשה במחנה לאהרן קדוש יהוה׃ |
17 Therefore the earth opened and swallowed vp Dathan, and couered the companie of Abiram.
| תפתח ארץ ותבלע דתן ותכס על עדת אבירם׃ |
18 And the fire was kindled in their assembly: the flame burnt vp the wicked.
| ותבער אש בעדתם להבה תלהט רשעים׃ |
19 They made a calfe in Horeb, and worshipped the molten image.
| יעשו עגל בחרב וישתחוו למסכה׃ |
20 Thus they turned their glory into the similitude of a bullocke, that eateth grasse.
| וימירו את כבודם בתבנית שור אכל עשב׃ |
21 They forgate God their Sauiour, which had done great things in Egypt,
| שכחו אל מושיעם עשה גדלות במצרים׃ |
22 Wonderous woorkes in the lande of Ham, and fearefull things by the red Sea.
| נפלאות בארץ חם נוראות על ים סוף׃ |
23 Therefore he minded to destroy them, had not Moses his chosen stand in the breach before him to turne away his wrath, least he shoulde destroy them.
| ויאמר להשמידם לולי משה בחירו עמד בפרץ לפניו להשיב חמתו מהשחית׃ |
24 Also they contemned that pleasant land, and beleeued not his worde,
| וימאסו בארץ חמדה לא האמינו לדברו׃ |
25 But murmured in their tentes, and hearkened not vnto the voice of the Lord.
| וירגנו באהליהם לא שמעו בקול יהוה׃ |
26 Therefore hee lifted vp his hande against them, to destroy them in the wildernesse,
| וישא ידו להם להפיל אותם במדבר׃ |
27 And to destroy their seede among the nations, and to scatter them throughout the countries.
| ולהפיל זרעם בגוים ולזרותם בארצות׃ |
28 They ioyned themselues also vnto Baalpeor, and did eate the offrings of the dead.
| ויצמדו לבעל פעור ויאכלו זבחי מתים׃ |
29 Thus they prouoked him vnto anger with their owne inuentions, and the plague brake in vpon them.
| ויכעיסו במעלליהם ותפרץ בם מגפה׃ |
30 But Phinehas stoode vp, and executed iudgement, and the plague was staied.
| ויעמד פינחס ויפלל ותעצר המגפה׃ |
31 And it was imputed vnto him for righteousnes from generation to generation for euer.
| ותחשב לו לצדקה לדר ודר עד עולם׃ |
32 They angred him also at the waters of Meribah, so that Moses was punished for their sakes,
| ויקציפו על מי מריבה וירע למשה בעבורם׃ |
33 Because they vexed his spirite, so that hee spake vnaduisedly with his lippes.
| כי המרו את רוחו ויבטא בשפתיו׃ |
34 Neither destroied they the people, as the Lord had commanded them,
| לא השמידו את העמים אשר אמר יהוה להם׃ |
35 But were mingled among the heathen, and learned their workes,
| ויתערבו בגוים וילמדו מעשיהם׃ |
36 And serued their idoles, which were their ruine.
| ויעבדו את עצביהם ויהיו להם למוקש׃ |
37 Yea, they offered their sonnes, and their daughters vnto deuils,
| ויזבחו את בניהם ואת בנותיהם לשדים׃ |
38 And shed innocent blood, euen the blood of their sonnes, and of their daughters, whome they offred vnto the idoles of Canaan, and the lande was defiled with blood.
| וישפכו דם נקי דם בניהם ובנותיהם אשר זבחו לעצבי כנען ותחנף הארץ בדמים׃ |
39 Thus were they steined with their owne woorkes, and went a whoring with their owne inuentions.
| ויטמאו במעשיהם ויזנו במעלליהם׃ |
40 Therefore was the wrath of the Lord kindled against his people, and he abhorred his owne inheritance.
| ויחר אף יהוה בעמו ויתעב את נחלתו׃ |
41 And hee gaue them into the hande of the heathen: and they that hated them, were lordes ouer them.
| ויתנם ביד גוים וימשלו בהם שנאיהם׃ |
42 Their enemies also oppressed them, and they were humbled vnder their hand.
| וילחצום אויביהם ויכנעו תחת ידם׃ |
43 Many a time did hee deliuer them, but they prouoked him by their counsels: therefore they were brought downe by their iniquitie.
| פעמים רבות יצילם והמה ימרו בעצתם וימכו בעונם׃ |
44 Yet hee sawe when they were in affliction, and he heard their crie.
| וירא בצר להם בשמעו את רנתם׃ |
45 And he remembred his couenant towarde them and repented according to the multitude of his mercies,
| ויזכר להם בריתו וינחם כרב חסדו׃ |
46 And gaue them fauour in the sight of all them that lead them captiues.
| ויתן אותם לרחמים לפני כל שוביהם׃ |
47 Saue vs, O Lord our God, and gather vs from among the heathen, that we may praise thine holy Name, and glorie in thy praise.
| הושיענו יהוה אלהינו וקבצנו מן הגוים להדות לשם קדשך להשתבח בתהלתך׃ |
48 Blessed be the Lord God of Israel for euer and euer, and let all the people say, So be it. Praise yee the Lord.
| ברוך יהוה אלהי ישראל מן העולם ועד העולם ואמר כל העם אמן הללו יה׃ |
