תהילים 106
| הללויה הודו ליהוה כי טוב כי לעולם חסדו׃ | 1 |
Hallelujah. Oh give thanks unto the Lord; for he is good: for to eternity endureth his kindness.
| מי ימלל גבורות יהוה ישמיע כל תהלתו׃ | 2 |
Who can utter the mighty acts of the Lord? who can publish all his praise?
| אשרי שמרי משפט עשה צדקה בכל עת׃ | 3 |
Happy are those that observe justice, that execute righteousness at all times.
| זכרני יהוה ברצון עמך פקדני בישועתך׃ | 4 |
Remember me, O Lord, when thou favorest thy people: oh visit me with thy salvation;
| לראות בטובת בחיריך לשמח בשמחת גויך להתהלל עם נחלתך׃ | 5 |
That I may look on the happiness of thy elect, that I may rejoice in the joy of thy nation, that I may glorify myself with thy inheritance.
| חטאנו עם אבותינו העוינו הרשענו׃ | 6 |
We have sinned together 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 did not reflect on thy wonders in Egypt: they remembered not the multitude of thy kindnesses; but rebelled at the sea, even at the Red Sea.
| ויושיעם למען שמו להודיע את גבורתו׃ | 8 |
Nevertheless he saved them for the sake of his name, to make known his might.
| ויגער בים סוף ויחרב ויוליכם בתהמות כמדבר׃ | 9 |
He rebuked the Red Sea also, and it was dried up; and 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 adversaries: not one of them was left.
| ויאמינו בדבריו ישירו תהלתו׃ | 12 |
Then believed they in his words, they sang his praise.
| מהרו שכחו מעשיו לא חכו לעצתו׃ | 13 |
Speedily they forgot his works, they waited not for his counsel;
| ויתאוו תאוה במדבר וינסו אל בישימון׃ | 14 |
And they felt a lustful longing in the wilderness, and tempted God in the desert.
| ויתן להם שאלתם וישלח רזון בנפשם׃ | 15 |
And he gave them what they had asked; but sent dryness into their soul.
| ויקנאו למשה במחנה לאהרן קדוש יהוה׃ | 16 |
Moreover they envied Moses in the camp, and Aaron the holy one of the Lord.
| תפתח ארץ ותבלע דתן ותכס על עדת אבירם׃ | 17 |
The earth opened and swallowed up Dathan, and covered over the company of Abiram.
| ותבער אש בעדתם להבה תלהט רשעים׃ | 18 |
And a fire was kindled in their company: the flame burnt up the wicked.
| יעשו עגל בחרב וישתחוו למסכה׃ | 19 |
They made a calf in Horeb, and bowed themselves down to a molten image.
| וימירו את כבודם בתבנית שור אכל עשב׃ | 20 |
And they exchanged their glory for the similitude of an ox that eateth herbs.
| שכחו אל מושיעם עשה גדלות במצרים׃ | 21 |
They forgot God their saviour, who had done great things in Egypt,
| נפלאות בארץ חם נוראות על ים סוף׃ | 22 |
Wonders in the land of Ham, terrible things by the Red Sea.
| ויאמר להשמידם לולי משה בחירו עמד בפרץ לפניו להשיב חמתו מהשחית׃ | 23 |
He therefore spoke of destroying them: had not Moses his elect stood in the breach before him, to turn away his fury, that he might not destroy.
| וימאסו בארץ חמדה לא האמינו לדברו׃ | 24 |
And they despised the pleasant land, they believed not in his word;
| וירגנו באהליהם לא שמעו בקול יהוה׃ | 25 |
But they murmured in their tents, they hearkened not unto the voice of the Lord.
| וישא ידו להם להפיל אותם במדבר׃ | 26 |
He therefore lifted up his hand against them, to cause them to fall in the wilderness;
| ולהפיל זרעם בגוים ולזרותם בארצות׃ | 27 |
And to let their seed fall among the nations, and to scatter them in the lands.
| ויצמדו לבעל פעור ויאכלו זבחי מתים׃ | 28 |
And they joined themselves unto Ba'al-pe'or, and ate the sacrifices of the dead.
| ויכעיסו במעלליהם ותפרץ בם מגפה׃ | 29 |
And they provoked him to anger with their deeds: and there broke in among them the plague.
| ויעמד פינחס ויפלל ותעצר המגפה׃ | 30 |
Then stood up Phinehas, and executed judgment: and the plague was stayed.
| ותחשב לו לצדקה לדר ודר עד עולם׃ | 31 |
And it was accounted 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 Meribah, and evil happened to Moses for their sake;
| כי המרו את רוחו ויבטא בשפתיו׃ | 33 |
Because they had embittered his spirit, and so he spoke thoughtlessly with his lips.
| לא השמידו את העמים אשר אמר יהוה להם׃ | 34 |
They did not exterminate the nations, that the Lord had indicated to them;
| ויתערבו בגוים וילמדו מעשיהם׃ | 35 |
But they mingled themselves among the nations, and learned their doings.
| ויעבדו את עצביהם ויהיו להם למוקש׃ | 36 |
And they served their idols, and these became unto them a snare.
| ויזבחו את בניהם ואת בנותיהם לשדים׃ | 37 |
Yea, they sacrificed their sons and their daughters unto the evil spirits;
| וישפכו דם נקי דם בניהם ובנותיהם אשר זבחו לעצבי כנען ותחנף הארץ בדמים׃ | 38 |
And they shed innocent blood, the blood of their sons and of their daughters, whom they sacrificed unto the idols of Canaan: and the land was polluted with blood-guiltiness.
| ויטמאו במעשיהם ויזנו במעלליהם׃ | 39 |
Thus were they made unclean through their own doings, and went astray with their own deeds.
| ויחר אף יהוה בעמו ויתעב את נחלתו׃ | 40 |
therefore was the wrath of the Lord kindled against his people, and be felt disgust for his own inheritance.
| ויתנם ביד גוים וימשלו בהם שנאיהם׃ | 41 |
And he gave them up into the hand of the nations: and there ruled over them those that hated them.
| וילחצום אויביהם ויכנעו תחת ידם׃ | 42 |
And their enemies also oppressed them: and they were subdued under their hand.
| פעמים רבות יצילם והמה ימרו בעצתם וימכו בעונם׃ | 43 |
Many times did he deliver them; but they rebelled with their counsel, and they were brought low through their iniquity.
| וירא בצר להם בשמעו את רנתם׃ | 44 |
Nevertheless he looked on when they were in distress, when he heard their entreaty.
| ויזכר להם בריתו וינחם כרב חסדו׃ | 45 |
And he remembered unto them his covenant, and he bethought himself according to the abundance of his kindnesses;
| ויתן אותם לרחמים לפני כל שוביהם׃ | 46 |
And be caused them to find mercy before all those that had carried them away captive.
| הושיענו יהוה אלהינו וקבצנו מן הגוים להדות לשם קדשך להשתבח בתהלתך׃ | 47 |
Save us, O Lord our God, and gather us from among the nations, to give thanks unto thy holy name, to triumph in thy praise.
| ברוך יהוה אלהי ישראל מן העולם ועד העולם ואמר כל העם אמן הללו יה׃ | 48 |
Blessed be the Lord the God of Israel from everlasting even to everlasting: and let all the people say, Amen, Hallelujah.
