Psalm 106:19-48

Revised Standard Version RSV

19 They made a calf in Horeb and worshiped a molten image.

20 They exchanged the glory of God for the image of an ox that eats grass.

21 They forgot God, their Savior, who had done great things in Egypt,

22 wondrous works in the land of Ham, and terrible things by the Red Sea.

23 Therefore he said he would destroy them--had not Moses, his chosen one, stood in the breach before him, to turn away his wrath from destroying them.

24 Then they despised the pleasant land, having no faith in his promise.

25 They murmured in their tents, and did not obey the voice of the LORD.

26 Therefore he raised his hand and swore to them that he would make them fall in the wilderness,

27 and would disperse their descendants among the nations, scattering them over the lands.

28 Then they attached themselves to the Ba'al of Pe'or, and ate sacrifices offered to the dead;

29 they provoked the LORD to anger with their doings, and a plague broke out among them.

30 Then Phin'ehas stood up and interposed, and the plague was stayed.

31 And that has been reckoned to him as righteousness from generation to generation for ever.

32 They angered him at the waters of Mer'ibah, and it went ill with Moses on their account;

33 for they made his spirit bitter, and he spoke words that were rash.

34 They did not destroy the peoples, as the LORD commanded them,

35 but they mingled with the nations and learned to do as they did.

36 They served their idols, which became a snare to them.

37 They sacrificed their sons and their daughters to the demons;

38 they poured out innocent blood, the blood of their sons and daughters, whom they sacrificed to the idols of Canaan; and the land was polluted with blood.

39 Thus they became unclean by their acts, and played the harlot in their doings.

40 Then the anger of the LORD was kindled against his people, and he abhorred his heritage;

41 he gave them into the hand of the nations, so that those who hated them ruled over them.

42 Their enemies oppressed them, and they were brought into subjection under their power.

43 Many times he delivered them, but they were rebellious in their purposes, and were brought low through their iniquity.

44 Nevertheless he regarded their distress, when he heard their cry.

45 He remembered for their sake his covenant, and relented according to the abundance of his steadfast love.

46 He caused them to be pitied by all those who held them captive.

47 Save us, O LORD our God, and gather us from among the nations, that we may give thanks to thy holy name and glory in thy praise.

48 Blessed be the LORD, the God of Israel, from everlasting to everlasting! And let all the people say, "Amen!" Praise the LORD!

25 They grumbled in their tents and did not obey the LORD.

26 So he swore to them with uplifted hand that he would make them fall in the wilderness,

27 make their descendants fall among the nations and scatter them throughout the lands.

28 They yoked themselves to the Baal of Peor and ate sacrifices offered to lifeless gods;

31 This was credited to him as righteousness for endless generations to come.

32 By the waters of Meribah they angered the LORD, and trouble came to Moses because of them;

33 for they rebelled against the Spirit of God, and rash words came from Moses’ lips.
