Psalms 106
1 Praise the LORD. Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good, for his loving kindness endures forever.
| הַֽלְלוּיָ֨הּ ׀ הֹוד֣וּ לַיהוָ֣ה כִּי־טֹ֑וב כִּ֖י לְעֹולָ֣ם חַסְדֹּֽו׃ |
2 Who can utter the mighty acts of the LORD, or fully declare all his praise?
| מִ֗י יְ֭מַלֵּל גְּבוּרֹ֣ות יְהוָ֑ה יַ֝שְׁמִ֗יעַ כָּל־תְּהִלָּתֹֽו׃ |
3 Blessed are those who uphold justice, who practice righteousness at all times.
| אַ֭שְׁרֵי שֹׁמְרֵ֣י מִשְׁפָּ֑ט עֹשֵׂ֖ה צְדָקָ֣ה בְכָל־עֵֽת׃ |
4 Remember me, LORD, with the favor that you show to your people. Visit me with your salvation,
| זָכְרֵ֣נִי יְ֭הוָה בִּרְצֹ֣ון עַמֶּ֑ךָ פָּ֝קְדֵ֗נִי בִּישׁוּעָתֶֽךָ׃ |
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.
| לִרְאֹ֤ות ׀ בְּטֹ֘ובַ֤ת בְּחִירֶ֗יךָ לִ֭שְׂמֹחַ בְּשִׂמְחַ֣ת גֹּויֶ֑ךָ לְ֝הִתְהַלֵּ֗ל עִם־נַחֲלָתֶֽךָ׃ |
6 We have sinned with our fathers. We have committed iniquity. We have done wickedly.
| חָטָ֥אנוּ עִם־אֲבֹותֵ֗ינוּ הֶעֱוִ֥ינוּ הִרְשָֽׁעְנוּ׃ |
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.
| אֲבֹ֘ותֵ֤ינוּ בְמִצְרַ֨יִם ׀ לֹא־הִשְׂכִּ֬ילוּ נִפְלְאֹותֶ֗יךָ לֹ֣א זָ֭כְרוּ אֶת־רֹ֣ב חֲסָדֶ֑יךָ וַיַּמְר֖וּ עַל־יָ֣ם בְּיַם־סֽוּף׃ |
8 Nevertheless he saved them for his name's sake, that he might make his mighty power known.
| וַֽ֭יֹּושִׁיעֵם לְמַ֣עַן שְׁמֹ֑ו לְ֝הֹודִ֗יעַ אֶת־גְּבוּרָתֹֽו׃ |
9 He rebuked the Red Sea also, and it was dried up; so he led them through the depths, as through a desert.
| וַיִּגְעַ֣ר בְּיַם־ס֭וּף וֽ͏ַיֶּחֱרָ֑ב וַיֹּולִיכֵ֥ם בַּ֝תְּהֹמֹ֗ות כַּמִּדְבָּֽר׃ |
10 He saved them from the hand of him who hated them, and redeemed them from the hand of the enemy.
| וַֽ֭יֹּושִׁיעֵם מִיַּ֣ד שֹׂונֵ֑א וַ֝יִּגְאָלֵ֗ם מִיַּ֥ד אֹויֵֽב׃ |
11 The waters covered their adversaries. There was not one of them left.
| וַיְכַסּוּ־מַ֥יִם צָרֵיהֶ֑ם אֶחָ֥ד מֵ֝הֶ֗ם לֹ֣א נֹותָֽר׃ |
12 Then they believed his words. They sang his praise.
| וַיַּאֲמִ֥ינוּ בִדְבָרָ֑יו יָ֝שִׁ֗ירוּ תְּהִלָּתֹֽו׃ |
13 They soon forgot his works. They did not wait for his counsel,
| מִֽ֭הֲרוּ שָׁכְח֣וּ מַעֲשָׂ֑יו לֹֽא־חִ֝כּ֗וּ לַעֲצָתֹֽו׃ |
14 but gave in to craving in the desert, and tested God in the wasteland.
| וַיִּתְאַוּ֣וּ תַ֭אֲוָה בַּמִּדְבָּ֑ר וַיְנַסּוּ־אֵ֝֗ל בִּֽישִׁימֹֽון׃ |
15 He gave them their request, but sent leanness into their soul.
| וַיִּתֵּ֣ן לָ֭הֶם שֶׁאֱלָתָ֑ם וַיְשַׁלַּ֖ח רָזֹ֣ון בְּנַפְשָֽׁם׃ |
16 They envied Moses also in the camp, and Aaron, the LORD's holy one.
| וַיְקַנְא֣וּ לְ֭מֹשֶׁה בַּֽמַּחֲנֶ֑ה לְ֝אַהֲרֹ֗ן קְדֹ֣ושׁ יְהוָֽה׃ |
17 The earth opened and swallowed up Dathan, and covered the company of Abiram.
| תִּפְתַּח־אֶ֭רֶץ וַתִּבְלַ֣ע דָּתָ֑ן וַ֝תְּכַ֗ס עַל־עֲדַ֥ת אֲבִירָֽם׃ |
18 A fire was kindled in their company. The flame burned up the wicked.
| וַתִּבְעַר־אֵ֥שׁ בַּעֲדָתָ֑ם לֶ֝הָבָ֗ה תְּלַהֵ֥ט רְשָׁעִֽים׃ |
19 They made a calf in Horeb, and worshiped a molten image.
| יַעֲשׂוּ־עֵ֥גֶל בְּחֹרֵ֑ב וַ֝יִּשְׁתַּחֲו֗וּ לְמַסֵּכָֽה׃ |
20 Thus they exchanged their glory for an image of a bull that eats grass.
| וַיָּמִ֥ירוּ אֶת־כְּבֹודָ֑ם בְּתַבְנִ֥ית שֹׁ֝֗ור אֹכֵ֥ל עֵֽשֶׂב׃ |
21 They forgot God, their Savior, who had done great things in Egypt,
| שָׁ֭כְחוּ אֵ֣ל מֹושִׁיעָ֑ם עֹשֶׂ֖ה גְדֹלֹ֣ות בְּמִצְרָֽיִם׃ |
22 Wondrous works in the land of Ham, and awesome things by the Red Sea.
| נִ֭פְלָאֹות בְּאֶ֣רֶץ חָ֑ם נֹ֝ורָאֹ֗ות עַל־יַם־סֽוּף׃ |
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.
| וַיֹּ֗אמֶר לְֽהַשְׁמִ֫ידָ֥ם לוּלֵ֡י מֹ֘שֶׁ֤ה בְחִירֹ֗ו עָמַ֣ד בַּפֶּ֣רֶץ לְפָנָ֑יו לְהָשִׁ֥יב חֲ֝מָתֹ֗ו מֵֽהַשְׁחִֽית׃ |
24 Yes, they despised the pleasant land. They did not believe his word,
| וַֽ֭יִּמְאֲסוּ בְּאֶ֣רֶץ חֶמְדָּ֑ה לֹֽא־הֶ֝אֱמִ֗ינוּ לִדְבָרֹֽו׃ |
25 but murmured in their tents, and did not listen to the LORD's voice.
| וַיֵּרָגְנ֥וּ בְאָהֳלֵיהֶ֑ם לֹ֥א שָׁ֝מְע֗וּ בְּקֹ֣ול יְהוָֽה׃ |
26 Therefore he swore to them that he would overthrow them in the wilderness,
| וַיִּשָּׂ֣א יָדֹ֣ו לָהֶ֑ם לְהַפִּ֥יל אֹ֝ותָ֗ם בַּמִּדְבָּֽר׃ |
27 and that he would make their offspring fall among the nations, and scatter them in the lands.
| וּלְהַפִּ֣יל זַ֭רְעָם בַּגֹּויִ֑ם וּ֝לְזָרֹותָ֗ם בָּאֲרָצֹֽות׃ |
28 They joined themselves also to Baal Peor, and ate the sacrifices of the dead.
| וַ֭יִּצָּ֣מְדוּ לְבַ֣עַל פְּעֹ֑ור וַ֝יֹּאכְל֗וּ זִבְחֵ֥י מֵתִֽים׃ |
29 Thus they provoked him to anger with their deeds. The plague broke in on them.
| וַ֭יַּכְעִיסוּ בְּמַֽעַלְלֵיהֶ֑ם וַתִּפְרָץ־בָּ֝֗ם מַגֵּפָֽה׃ |
30 Then Phinehas stood up, and executed judgment, so the plague was stopped.
| וַיַּעֲמֹ֣ד פִּֽ֭ינְחָס וַיְפַלֵּ֑ל וַ֝תֵּעָצַ֗ר הַמַּגֵּפָֽה׃ |
31 That was credited to him for righteousness, for all generations to come.
| וַתֵּחָ֣שֶׁב לֹ֭ו לִצְדָקָ֑ה לְדֹ֥ר וָ֝דֹ֗ר עַד־עֹולָֽם׃ |
32 They angered him also at the waters of Meribah, so that Moses was troubled for their sakes;
| וַ֭יַּקְצִיפוּ עַל־מֵ֥י מְרִיבָ֑ה וַיֵּ֥רַע לְ֝מֹשֶׁ֗ה בַּעֲבוּרָֽם׃ |
33 because they were rebellious against his spirit, he spoke rashly with his lips.
| כִּֽי־הִמְר֥וּ אֶת־רוּחֹ֑ו וַ֝יְבַטֵּ֗א בִּשְׂפָתָֽיו׃ |
34 They did not destroy the peoples, as the LORD commanded them,
| לֹֽא־הִ֭שְׁמִידוּ אֶת־הָֽעַמִּ֑ים אֲשֶׁ֤ר אָמַ֖ר יְהוָ֣ה לָהֶֽם׃ |
35 but mixed themselves with the nations, and learned their works.
| וַיִּתְעָרְב֥וּ בַגֹּויִ֑ם וַֽ֝יִּלְמְד֗וּ מַֽעֲשֵׂיהֶֽם׃ |
36 They served their idols, which became a snare to them.
| וַיַּעַבְד֥וּ אֶת־עֲצַבֵּיהֶ֑ם וַיִּהְי֖וּ לָהֶ֣ם לְמֹוקֵֽשׁ׃ |
37 Yes, they sacrificed their sons and their daughters to demons.
| וַיִּזְבְּח֣וּ אֶת־בְּ֭נֵיהֶם וְאֶת־בְּנֹֽותֵיהֶ֗ם לַשֵּֽׁדִים׃ |
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.
| וַיִּֽשְׁפְּכ֨וּ דָ֪ם נָקִ֡י דַּם־בְּנֵ֘יהֶ֤ם וּֽבְנֹותֵיהֶ֗ם אֲשֶׁ֣ר זִ֭בְּחוּ לַעֲצַבֵּ֣י כְנָ֑עַן וַתֶּחֱנַ֥ף הָ֝אָ֗רֶץ בַּדָּמִֽים׃ |
39 Thus were they defiled with their works, and prostituted themselves in their deeds.
| וַיִּטְמְא֥וּ בְמַעֲשֵׂיהֶ֑ם וַ֝יִּזְ֗נוּ בְּמַֽעַלְלֵיהֶֽם׃ |
40 Therefore the LORD burned with anger against his people. He abhorred his inheritance.
| וַיִּֽחַר־אַ֣ף יְהוָ֣ה בְּעַמֹּ֑ו וַ֝יְתָעֵ֗ב אֶת־נַחֲלָתֹֽו׃ |
41 He gave them into the hand of the nations. Those who hated them ruled over them.
| וַיִּתְּנֵ֥ם בְּיַד־גֹּויִ֑ם וַֽיִּמְשְׁל֥וּ בָ֝הֶ֗ם שֹׂנְאֵיהֶֽם׃ |
42 Their enemies also oppressed them. They were brought into subjection under their hand.
| וַיִּלְחָצ֥וּם אֹויְבֵיהֶ֑ם וַ֝יִּכָּנְע֗וּ תַּ֣חַת יָדָֽם׃ |
43 Many times he delivered them, but they were rebellious in their counsel, and were brought low in their iniquity.
| פְּעָמִ֥ים רַבֹּ֗ות יַצִּ֫ילֵ֥ם וְ֭הֵמָּה יַמְר֣וּ בַעֲצָתָ֑ם וַ֝יָּמֹ֗כּוּ בַּעֲוֹנָֽם׃ |
44 Nevertheless he regarded their distress, when he heard their cry.
| וַ֭יַּרְא בַּצַּ֣ר לָהֶ֑ם בְּ֝שָׁמְעֹ֗ו אֶת־רִנָּתָֽם׃ |
45 He remembered for them his covenant, and repented according to the multitude of his loving kindnesses.
| וַיִּזְכֹּ֣ר לָהֶ֣ם בְּרִיתֹ֑ו וַ֝יִּנָּחֵ֗ם כְּרֹ֣ב חַסְדֹּו (חֲסָדָֽיו)׃ |
46 He made them also to be pitied by all those who carried them captive.
| וַיִּתֵּ֣ן אֹותָ֣ם לְרַחֲמִ֑ים לִ֝פְנֵ֛י כָּל־שֹׁובֵיהֶֽם׃ |
47 Save us, LORD, our God, gather us from among the nations, to give thanks to your holy name, to triumph in your praise.
| הֹושִׁיעֵ֨נוּ ׀ יְה֘וָ֤ה אֱלֹהֵ֗ינוּ וְקַבְּצֵנוּ֮ מִֽן־הַגֹּ֫ויִ֥ם לְ֭הֹדֹות לְשֵׁ֣ם קָדְשֶׁ֑ךָ לְ֝הִשְׁתַּבֵּ֗חַ בִּתְהִלָּתֶֽךָ׃ |
48 Blessed be the LORD, the God of Israel, from everlasting to everlasting. And let all the people say, "Amen." Praise the LORD.
| בָּר֤וּךְ־יְהוָ֨ה אֱלֹהֵ֪י יִשְׂרָאֵ֡ל מִן־הָ֤עֹולָ֨ם ׀ וְעַ֬ד הָעֹולָ֗ם וְאָמַ֖ר כָּל־הָעָ֥ם אָמֵ֗ן הַֽלְלוּ־יָֽהּ׃ |
