Praise the Lord! Thank the Lord, for he is good! His trustworthy love lasts forever.
2 Who? will he tell [the] mighty deeds of Yahweh will he proclaim? all praise his.
Who can give an account of all the wonderful things the Lord has done? Who can give him all the praise he is due?
3 How blessed! [are those who] observe justice [one who] does righteousness at every time.
Happy are those who treat people fairly, who always do what is right.
4 Remember me O Yahweh with [the] favor of people your visit me with salvation your.
Please remember me when you are generous to your people; think of me when you come to save.

Let me see your chosen people prosperous; let me be happy together with your nation; let me share in being proud of you with those who belong to you.
6 We have sinned with ancestors our we have done wrong we have acted wickedly.
We have sinned just like our forefathers. We have done wrong. We are guilty.
7 Ancestors our in Egypt - not they considered wonders your not they remembered [the] greatness of covenant loyalti your and they rebelled at [the] sea at [the] sea of reed[s].
They didn't pay attention to the wonderful things you did. They didn't keep in mind how much you loved them, but chose to rebel at the sea, the Red Sea.
8 And he saved them for [the] sake of name his to make known might his.
Even so he saved them because of the kind of person he is, and to show his power
9 And he rebuked [the] sea of reed[s] and it dried up and he led them in the deeps like the wilderness.
He gave his order to the Red Sea, and it dried up. He led his people across the seabed as if it were a desert.
10 And he saved them from [the] hand of [one who] hated and he redeemed them from [the] hand of an enemy.
He rescued them from those who hated them; he saved them from their enemies' power.
11 And they covered [the] waters opponents their one from them not he was left.
The water drowned their enemies—none of them survived,
12 And they believed words his they sang praise his.
Then his people trusted in what he promised, and sang his praises.
13 They made haste they forgot works his not they waited for counsel his.
But they quickly forgot what he had done for them, and they didn't listen to his advice.
14 And they craved a craving in the wilderness and they put to [the] test God in a desolate place.
They were filled with desperate cravings in the wilderness; they provoked God in the desert.
15 And he gave to them petition their and he sent a wasting disease on self their.
He gave them what they wanted, but sent them a plague as well.
16 And they were envious of Moses in the camp of Aaron [the] holy [one] of Yahweh.
In the camp the people became jealous of Moses, and of Aaron, the Lord's holy priest.
17 It opened [the] earth and it swallowed up Dathan and it covered over [the] company of Abiram.
The earth split open and swallowed up Dathan; it buried Abiram and his followers.
18 And it burned fire among company their flame it burned up [the] wicked [people].
Fire broke out among them—a flame that burned them up.
19 They made a calf at Horeb and they bowed down to a molten image.
At Mount Sinai they made a calf, they bowed down before a metal idol.
20 And they exchanged glory their for an image of an ox [which] eats vegetation.
They replaced their God of glory with a bull that eats grass!
21 They forgot God deliverer their [who] did great [things] in Egypt.
They forgot God, their Savior, who had done marvelous things in Egypt;
22 Wonders in [the] land of Ham awesome [deeds] at [the] sea of reed[s].
performing miracles in the land of Ham, doing amazing things at the Red Sea.
23 And he said to destroy them if not Moses chosen one his he had stood in the breach before him to turn back anger his from destroying.
So he said he was going to destroy them But Moses, his chosen leader, placed himself between the Lord and the people to persuade the Lord not to destroy them in his anger.
24 And they rejected [the] land of desire not they believed word his.
Later the people refused to enter the Promised Land; they didn't trust him to do as he'd promised.
25 And they murmured in tents their not they listened to [the] voice of Yahweh.
They complained in their tents about the Lord, and refused to obey what he told them.
26 And he raised hand his to them to make fall them in the wilderness.
So he raised his hand to give them a serious warning that he would bring them down in the wilderness,
27 And to make fall offspring their among the nations and to scatter them among the lands.
that he would disperse their descendants among the heathen nations, scattering them among countries far away.
28 And they joined themselves to Baal Peor and they ate sacrifices of dead [ones].
They gave their allegiance to Baal Peor, and ate food sacrificed to the dead.
29 And they provoked to anger by deeds their and it broke out among them a plague.
They provoked the Lord by what they did, making him angry, so a plague broke out among them.
30 And he stood up Phinehas and he mediated and it was restrained the plague.
But Phinehas took a stand for the Lord and intervened, and the plague was stopped in its tracks.
31 And it was reckoned to him to righteousness to a generation and a generation until perpetuity.
He has been considered as a man who lived right from that time on and for all generations.
32 And they provoked to anger at [the] waters of Meribah and it was bad for Moses because of them.
They also angered him at the waters of Meribah where things went badly for Moses because of them.
33 For they rebelled toward spirit his and he spoke rashly with lips his.
They upset him so much that he spoke without thinking in the heat of the moment.
34 Not they destroyed the peoples which he had said Yahweh to them.
They did not destroy the heathen peoples as the Lord had told them to do,
35 And they mixed themselves with the nations and they learned deeds their.
but instead they joined in with them and adopted their way of life.
36 And they served idols their and they became for them a snare.
They worshiped their pagan idols which became a trap for them.
37 And they sacrificed sons their and daughters their to demons.
The even sacrificed their sons and daughters to these demons.
38 And they shed blood innocent [the] blood of sons their and daughters their whom they sacrificed to [the] idols of Canaan and it was polluted the land by the blood.
They shed the blood of innocent children, their sons and daughters, sacrificing them to the idols of Canaan. By doing so they defiled the land with blood.
39 And they became unclean by works their and they played [the] prostitute by deeds their.
The also defiled themselves by what they did: their actions were spiritual adultery.
40 And it burned [the] anger of Yahweh on people his and he abhorred inheritance his.
So the Lord was angry with his people—he loathed those who belonged to him.
41 And he gave them in [the] hand of nations and they ruled over them [those who] hated them.
He handed them over to the heathen nations. These people who hated them now became their rulers.
42 And they oppressed them enemies their and they were humbled under hand their.
Their enemies dominated and subdued them with their power.
43 Times many he delivered them and they they rebelled by plan[s] their and they sank by iniquity their.
The Lord repeatedly rescued them, but they continued with their rebellious ideas, until they were finally destroyed by their own sins.
44 And he saw when it was distress to them when heard he cry of entreaty their.
Despite all this, the Lord was moved by their suffering; he heard their sad cries.
45 And he remembered to them covenant his and he relented according to [the] greatness of (covenant loyalti his. *Q(K)*)
He remembered the agreement he had made with them, and he held back because of his great kindness and love.
46 And he made them into compassion before all captors their.
He made the people who captured them treat them with mercy.
47 Save us - O Yahweh God our and gather us from the nations to give thanks to [the] name of holiness your to boast in praise your.
Save us, Lord, our God! Bring us back together from among the nations, so we can thank you and declare how magnificent and holy you are.
48 [be] blessed Yahweh [the] God of Israel from antiquity - and until perpetuity and it will say all the people amen praise Yahweh.
How wonderful is the Lord, the God of Israel, who lives forever and ever! Let all the people say “Amen”! Praise the Lord!
