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