Psalm 106

106Praise the LORD. Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good; his love endures forever.H1984H3050H3034H3068H2896H2617H57692Who can proclaim the mighty acts of the LORD or fully declare his praise?H4448H1369H3068H8085H84163Blessed are they who maintain justice, who constantly do what is right.H835H8104H4941H6213H6666H62564Remember me, O LORD, when you show favor to your people, come to my aid when you save them,H2142H3068H7522H5971H6485H34445that I may enjoy the prosperity of your chosen ones, that I may share in the joy of your nation and join your inheritance in giving praise.H7200H2896H972H8055H8057H1471H1984H51596We have sinned, even as our fathers did; we have done wrong and acted wickedly.H2398H1H5753H75617When our fathers were in Egypt, they gave no thought to your miracles; they did not remember your many kindnesses, and they rebelled by the sea, the Red Sea.H1H7919H6381H4714H2142H7230H2617H4784H3220H5488H32208Yet he saved them for his name's sake, to make his mighty power known.H3467H8034H1369H30459He rebuked the Red Sea, and it dried up; he led them through the depths as through a desert.H1605H5488H3220H2717H3212H8415H405710He saved them from the hand of the foe; from the hand of the enemy he redeemed them.H3467H3027H8130H1350H3027H34111The waters covered their adversaries; not one of them survived.H4325H3680H6862H259H349812Then they believed his promises and sang his praise.H539H1697H7891H841613But they soon forgot what he had done and did not wait for his counsel.H4116H7911H4639H2442H609814In the desert they gave in to their craving; in the wasteland they put God to the test.H183H8378H4057H5254H410H345215So he gave them what they asked for, but sent a wasting disease upon them.H5414H7596H7971H7332H531516In the camp they grew envious of Moses and of Aaron, who was consecrated to the LORD.H7065H4872H4264H175H6918H306817The earth opened up and swallowed Dathan; it buried the company of Abiram.H776H6605H1104H1885H3680H5712H4818Fire blazed among their followers; a flame consumed the wicked.H784H1197H5712H3852H3857H756319At Horeb they made a calf and worshiped an idol cast from metal.H6213H5695H2722H7812H454120They exchanged their Glory for an image of a bull, which eats grass.H4171H3519H8403H7794H398H621221They forgot the God who saved them, who had done great things in Egypt,H7911H410H3467H6213H1419H471422miracles in the land of Ham and awesome deeds by the Red Sea.H6381H776H2526H3372H5488H322023So he said he would destroy them--had not Moses, his chosen one, stood in the breach before him to keep his wrath from destroying them.H559H8045H3884H4872H972H5975H6440H6556H7725H2534H784324Then they despised the pleasant land; they did not believe his promise.H3988H2532H776H539H169725They grumbled in their tents and did not obey the LORD.H7279H168H8085H6963H306826So he swore to them with uplifted hand that he would make them fall in the desert,H5375H3027H5307H405727make their descendants fall among the nations and scatter them throughout the lands.H5307H2233H1471H2219H77628They yoked themselves to the Baal of Peor and ate sacrifices offered to lifeless gods;H6775H1187H398H2077H419129they provoked the LORD to anger by their wicked deeds, and a plague broke out among them.H3707H4611H4046H655530But Phinehas stood up and intervened, and the plague was checked.H5975H6372H6419H4046H611331This was credited to him as righteousness for endless generations to come.H2803H6666H1755H1755H5704H576932By the waters of Meribah they angered the LORD, and trouble came to Moses because of them;H7107H4325H4808H4809H3415H487233for they rebelled against the Spirit of God, and rash words came from Moses' lips.H4784H7307H981H819334They did not destroy the peoples as the LORD had commanded them,H8045H5971H3068H55935but they mingled with the nations and adopted their customs.H6148H1471H3925H463936They worshiped their idols, which became a snare to them.H5647H6091H417037They sacrificed their sons and their daughters to demons.H2076H1121H1323H770038They shed innocent blood, the blood of their sons and daughters, whom they sacrificed to the idols of Canaan, and the land was desecrated by their blood.H8210H5355H1818H1818H1121H1323H2076H6091H3667H776H2610H181839They defiled themselves by what they did; by their deeds they prostituted themselves.H2930H4639H2181H461140Therefore the LORD was angry with his people and abhorred his inheritance.H639H3068H2734H5971H8581H515941He handed them over to the nations, and their foes ruled over them.H5414H3027H1471H8130H491042Their enemies oppressed them and subjected them to their power.H341H3905H3665H302743Many times he delivered them, but they were bent on rebellion and they wasted away in their sin.H7227H6471H5337H4784H6098H4355H577144But he took note of their distress when he heard their cry;H7200H6862H8085H744045for their sake he remembered his covenant and out of his great love he relented.H2142H1285H5162H7230H261746He caused them to be pitied by all who held them captive.H5414H7356H6440H761747Save us, O LORD our God, and gather us from the nations, that we may give thanks to your holy name and glory in your praise.H3467H3068H430H6908H1471H3034H6944H8034H7623H841648Praise be to the LORD, the God of Israel, from everlasting to everlasting. Let all the people say, "Amen!" Praise the LORD.H1288H3068H430H3478H5769H5769H5971H559H543H1984H3050
