Psalm 106:1-48 - Praise To Yahweh For His Faithfulness In Israel's History
1 Hallelujah!
Give thanks to the Lord, for He is good;
His faithful love endures forever.
2 Who can declare the Lord’s mighty acts
or proclaim all the praise due Him?
3 How happy are those who uphold justice,
who practice righteousness at all times.
4
when You show favor to Your people.
Come to me with Your salvation
of Your chosen ones,
rejoice in the joy of Your nation,
and boast about Your heritage.
6
we have done wrong and have acted wickedly.
the significance of Your wonderful works
or remember Your many acts of faithful love;
instead, they rebelled by the sea—the Red Sea.
to make His power known.
He led them through the depths as through a desert.
He redeemed them from the hand of the enemy.
not one of them remained.
and sang His praise.
13
and would not wait for His counsel.
and tested God in the desert.
but sent a wasting disease among them.
16
and of Aaron, the Lord’s holy one.
it covered the assembly of Abiram.
flames consumed the wicked.
19
and worshiped the cast metal image.
for the image of a grass-eating ox.
who did great things in Egypt,
awe-inspiring acts at the Red Sea.
if Moses His chosen one
had not stood before Him in the breach
to turn His wrath away from destroying them.
24
and did not believe His promise.
and did not listen to the Lord’s voice.
that He would make them fall in the desert
among the nations,
scattering them throughout the lands.
28
and ate sacrifices offered to lifeless gods.
and a plague broke out against them.
and the plague was stopped.
throughout all generations to come.
32
and Moses suffered
and he spoke rashly with his lips.
34
as the Lord had commanded them
and adopted their ways.
which became a snare to them.
the blood of their sons and daughters
whom they sacrificed to the idols of Canaan;
so the land became polluted with blood.
and prostituted themselves by their deeds.
40
and He abhorred His own inheritance.
those who hated them ruled them.
and they were subdued under their power.
but they continued to rebel deliberately
and were beaten down by their sin.
44
He took note of their distress,
and relented according to the riches
of His faithful love.
before all their captors.
47
and gather us from the nations,
so that we may give thanks to Your holy name
and rejoice in Your praise.
48
from everlasting to everlasting.
Let all the people say, “Amen!”
Hallelujah!
