Psalms 106
1 Praise ye the LORD. O give thanks unto the LORD; for [he is] good: for his mercy [endureth] for ever.
| הללויה הודו ליהוה כי טוב כי לעולם חסדו׃ |
2 Who can utter the mighty acts of the LORD? [who] can shew forth all his praise?
| מי ימלל גבורות יהוה ישמיע כל תהלתו׃ |
3 Blessed [are] they that keep judgment, [and] he that doeth righteousness at all times.
| אשרי שמרי משפט עשה צדקה בכל עת׃ |
4 Remember me, O LORD, with the favour [that thou bearest unto] thy people: O visit me with thy salvation;
| זכרני יהוה ברצון עמך פקדני בישועתך׃ |
5 That I may see the good of thy chosen, that I may rejoice in the gladness of thy nation, that I may glory with thine inheritance.
| לראות בטובת בחיריך לשמח בשמחת גויך להתהלל עם נחלתך׃ |
6 We have sinned with our fathers, we have committed iniquity, we have done wickedly.
| חטאנו עם אבותינו העוינו הרשענו׃ |
7 Our fathers understood not thy wonders in Egypt; they remembered not the multitude of thy mercies; but provoked [him] at the sea, [even] at the Red sea.
| אבותינו במצרים לא השכילו נפלאותיך לא זכרו את רב חסדיך וימרו על ים בים סוף׃ |
8 Nevertheless he saved them for his name’s sake, that he might make his mighty power to be known.
| ויושיעם למען שמו להודיע את גבורתו׃ |
9 He rebuked the Red sea also, and it was dried up: so he led them through the depths, as through the wilderness.
| ויגער בים סוף ויחרב ויוליכם בתהמות כמדבר׃ |
10 And he saved them from the hand of him that hated [them], and redeemed them from the hand of the enemy.
| ויושיעם מיד שונא ויגאלם מיד אויב׃ |
11 And the waters covered their enemies: there was not one of them left.
| ויכסו מים צריהם אחד מהם לא נותר׃ |
12 Then believed they his words; they sang his praise.
| ויאמינו בדבריו ישירו תהלתו׃ |
13 They soon forgat his works; they waited not for his counsel:
| מהרו שכחו מעשיו לא חכו לעצתו׃ |
14 But lusted exceedingly in the wilderness, and tempted God in the desert.
| ויתאוו תאוה במדבר וינסו אל בישימון׃ |
15 And he gave them their request; but sent leanness into their soul.
| ויתן להם שאלתם וישלח רזון בנפשם׃ |
16 They envied Moses also in the camp, [and] Aaron the saint of the LORD.
| ויקנאו למשה במחנה לאהרן קדוש יהוה׃ |
17 The earth opened and swallowed up Dathan, and covered the company of Abiram.
| תפתח ארץ ותבלע דתן ותכס על עדת אבירם׃ |
18 And a fire was kindled in their company; the flame burned up the wicked.
| ותבער אש בעדתם להבה תלהט רשעים׃ |
19 They made a calf in Horeb, and worshipped the molten image.
| יעשו עגל בחרב וישתחוו למסכה׃ |
20 Thus they changed their glory into the similitude of an ox that eateth grass.
| וימירו את כבודם בתבנית שור אכל עשב׃ |
21 They forgat God their saviour, which had done great things in Egypt;
| שכחו אל מושיעם עשה גדלות במצרים׃ |
22 Wondrous works in the land of Ham, [and] terrible things by the Red sea.
| נפלאות בארץ חם נוראות על ים סוף׃ |
23 Therefore he said that he would destroy them, had not Moses his chosen stood before him in the breach, to turn away his wrath, lest he should destroy [them].
| ויאמר להשמידם לולי משה בחירו עמד בפרץ לפניו להשיב חמתו מהשחית׃ |
24 Yea, they despised the pleasant land, they believed not his word:
| וימאסו בארץ חמדה לא האמינו לדברו׃ |
25 But murmured in their tents, [and] hearkened not unto the voice of the LORD.
| וירגנו באהליהם לא שמעו בקול יהוה׃ |
26 Therefore he lifted up his hand against them, to overthrow them in the wilderness:
| וישא ידו להם להפיל אותם במדבר׃ |
27 To overthrow their seed also among the nations, and to scatter them in the lands.
| ולהפיל זרעם בגוים ולזרותם בארצות׃ |
28 They joined themselves also unto Baal-peor, and ate the sacrifices of the dead.
| ויצמדו לבעל פעור ויאכלו זבחי מתים׃ |
29 Thus they provoked [him] to anger with their inventions: and the plague brake in upon them.
| ויכעיסו במעלליהם ותפרץ בם מגפה׃ |
30 Then stood up Phinehas, and executed judgment: and [so] the plague was stayed.
| ויעמד פינחס ויפלל ותעצר המגפה׃ |
31 And that was counted unto him for righteousness unto all generations for evermore.
| ותחשב לו לצדקה לדר ודר עד עולם׃ |
32 They angered [him] also at the waters of strife, so that it went ill with Moses for their sakes:
| ויקציפו על מי מריבה וירע למשה בעבורם׃ |
33 Because they provoked his spirit, so that he spake unadvisedly with his lips.
| כי המרו את רוחו ויבטא בשפתיו׃ |
34 They did not destroy the nations, concerning whom the LORD commanded them:
| לא השמידו את העמים אשר אמר יהוה להם׃ |
35 But were mingled among the heathen, and learned their works.
| ויתערבו בגוים וילמדו מעשיהם׃ |
36 And they served their idols: which were a snare unto them.
| ויעבדו את עצביהם ויהיו להם למוקש׃ |
37 Yea, they sacrificed their sons and their daughters unto devils,
| ויזבחו את בניהם ואת בנותיהם לשדים׃ |
38 And shed innocent blood, [even] the blood of their sons and of their daughters, whom they sacrificed unto the idols of Canaan: and the land was polluted with blood.
| וישפכו דם נקי דם בניהם ובנותיהם אשר זבחו לעצבי כנען ותחנף הארץ בדמים׃ |
39 Thus were they defiled with their own works, and went a whoring with their own inventions.
| ויטמאו במעשיהם ויזנו במעלליהם׃ |
40 Therefore was the wrath of the LORD kindled against his people, insomuch that he abhorred his own inheritance.
| ויחר אף יהוה בעמו ויתעב את נחלתו׃ |
41 And he gave them into the hand of the heathen; and they that hated them ruled over them.
| ויתנם ביד גוים וימשלו בהם שנאיהם׃ |
42 Their enemies also oppressed them, and they were brought into subjection under their hand.
| וילחצום אויביהם ויכנעו תחת ידם׃ |
43 Many times did he deliver them; but they provoked [him] with their counsel, and were brought low for their iniquity.
| פעמים רבות יצילם והמה ימרו בעצתם וימכו בעונם׃ |
44 Nevertheless he regarded their affliction, when he heard their cry:
| וירא בצר להם בשמעו את רנתם׃ |
45 And he remembered for them his covenant, and repented according to the multitude of his mercies.
| ויזכר להם בריתו וינחם כרב חסדו׃ |
46 He made them also to be pitied of all those that carried them captives.
| ויתן אותם לרחמים לפני כל שוביהם׃ |
47 Save us, O LORD our God, and gather us from among the heathen, to give thanks unto thy holy name, [and] to triumph in thy praise.
| הושיענו יהוה אלהינו וקבצנו מן הגוים להדות לשם קדשך להשתבח בתהלתך׃ |
48 Blessed [be] the LORD God of Israel from everlasting to everlasting: and let all the people say, Amen. Praise ye the LORD.
| ברוך יהוה אלהי ישראל מן העולם ועד העולם ואמר כל העם אמן הללו יה׃ |
