Psalms 106

1 Praise JAH. Give thanks to Jehovah, for he is good, for his loving kindness endures forever.

Praise Yah. O give thanks unto Yhwh; for he is good: for his mercy endureth for ever.

2 Who can utter the mighty acts of Jehovah, or fully declare all his praise?

Who can utter the mighty acts of Yhwh? who can shew forth all his praise?

3 Blessed are those who uphold justice, who practice righteousness at all times.

Blessed are they that keep judgment, and he that doeth righteousness at all times.

4 Remember me, Jehovah, with the favor that you show to your people. Visit me with your salvation,

Remember me, O Yhwh, with the favour that thou bearest unto thy people: O visit me with thy 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.

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.

6 We have sinned with our fathers. We have committed iniquity. We have done wickedly.

We have sinned with our fathers, we have committed iniquity, we have done wickedly.

7 Our fathers did not understand your wonders in Egypt. They did not remember the multitude of your loving kindnesses, but were rebellious at the sea, even at the Red Sea.

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.

8 Nevertheless he saved them for his name's sake, that he might make his mighty power known.

Nevertheless he saved them for his name’s sake, that he might make his mighty power to be known.

9 He rebuked the Red Sea also, and it was dried up; so he led them through the depths, as through a desert.

He rebuked the Red sea also, and it was dried up: so he led them through the depths, as through the wilderness.

10 He saved them from the hand of him who hated them, and redeemed them from the hand of the enemy.

And he saved them from the hand of him that hated them, and redeemed them from the hand of the enemy.

11 The waters covered their adversaries. There was not one of them left.

And the waters covered their enemies: there was not one of them left.

12 Then they believed his words. They sang his praise.

Then believed they his words; they sang his praise.

13 They soon forgot his works. They did not wait for his counsel,

They soon forgat his works; they waited not for his counsel:

14 but gave in to craving in the desert, and tested God in the wasteland.

But lusted exceedingly in the wilderness, and tempted God in the desert.

15 He gave them their request, but sent leanness into their soul.

And he gave them their request; but sent leanness into their soul.

16 They envied Moses also in the camp, and Aaron, Jehovah's holy one.

They envied Moses also in the camp, and Aaron the saint of Yhwh.

17 The earth opened and swallowed up Dathan, and covered the company of Abiram.

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.

And 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.

They made a calf in Horeb, and worshipped the molten image.

20 Thus they exchanged their glory for an image of a bull that eats grass.

Thus they changed their glory into the similitude of an ox that eateth grass.

21 They forgot God, their Savior, who had done great things in Egypt,

They forgat God their saviour, which had done great things in Egypt;

22 Wondrous works in the land of Ham, and awesome things by the Red Sea.

Wondrous works in the land of Ham, and terrible things by the Red sea.

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.

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.

24 Yes, they despised the pleasant land. They did not believe his word,

Yea, they despised the pleasant land, they believed not his word:

25 but murmured in their tents, and did not listen to Jehovah's voice.

But murmured in their tents, and hearkened not unto the voice of Yhwh.

26 Therefore he swore to them that he would overthrow them in the wilderness,

Therefore he lifted up his hand against them, to overthrow them in the wilderness:

27 and that he would make their offspring fall among the nations, and scatter them in the lands.

To overthrow their seed also among the nations, and to scatter them in the lands.

28 They joined themselves also to Baal Peor, and ate the sacrifices of the dead.

29 Thus they provoked him to anger with their deeds. The plague broke in on them.

Thus they provoked him to anger with their inventions: and the plague brake in upon them.

30 Then Phinehas stood up, and executed judgment, so the plague was stopped.

Then stood up Phinehas, and executed judgment: and so the plague was stayed.

31 That was credited to him for righteousness, for all generations to come.

And that was counted unto him for righteousness unto all generations for evermore.

32 They angered him also at the waters of Meribah, so that Moses was troubled for their sakes;

They angered him also at the waters of strife, so that it went ill with Moses for their sakes:

33 because they were rebellious against his spirit, he spoke rashly with his lips.

Because they provoked his spirit, so that he spake unadvisedly with his lips.

34 They did not destroy the peoples, as Jehovah commanded them,

They did not destroy the nations, concerning whom Yhwh commanded them:

35 but mixed themselves with the nations, and learned their works.

But were mingled among the heathen, and learned their works.

36 They served their idols, which became a snare to them.

And they served their idols: which were a snare unto them.

37 Yes, they sacrificed their sons and their daughters to demons.

Yea, they sacrificed their sons and their daughters unto devils,

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.

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.

39 Thus were they defiled with their works, and prostituted themselves in their deeds.

Thus were they defiled with their own works, and went a whoring with their own inventions.

40 Therefore Jehovah burned with anger against his people. He abhorred his inheritance.

Therefore was the wrath of Yhwh kindled against his people, insomuch that he abhorred his own inheritance.

41 He gave them into the hand of the nations. Those who hated them ruled over them.

And he gave them into the hand of the heathen; and they that hated them ruled over them.

42 Their enemies also oppressed them. They were brought into subjection under their hand.

Their enemies also oppressed them, and they were brought into subjection under their hand.

43 Many times he delivered them, but they were rebellious in their counsel, and were brought low in their iniquity.

Many times did he deliver them; but they provoked him with their counsel, and were brought low for their iniquity.

44 Nevertheless he regarded their distress, when he heard their cry.

Nevertheless he regarded their affliction, when he heard their cry:

45 He remembered for them his covenant, and repented according to the multitude of his loving kindnesses.

And he remembered for them his covenant, and repented according to the multitude of his mercies.

46 He made them also to be pitied by all those who carried them captive.

He made them also to be pitied of all those that carried them captives.

47 Save us, Jehovah, our God, gather us from among the nations, to give thanks to your holy name, to triumph in your praise.

Save us, O Yhwh our God, and gather us from among the heathen, to give thanks unto thy holy name, and to triumph in thy praise.

48 Blessed be Jehovah, the God of Israel, from everlasting to everlasting. And let all the people say, "Amen." Praise JAH.

Blessed be Yhwh God of Israel from everlasting to everlasting: and let all the people say, Amen. Hallelu jah.
