Psalm 106

The Complete Jewish Bible CJB

1 Halleluyah! Give thanks to ADONAI; for he is good, for his grace continues forever.

2 Who can express ADONAI's mighty doings or proclaim in full his praise?

3 How happy are those who act justly, who always do what is right!

4 Remember me, ADONAI, when you show favor to your people, keep me in mind when you save them;

5 so I can see how well things are going with those whom you have chosen, so that I can rejoice in your nation's joy, and glory in your heritage.

6 Together with our ancestors, we have sinned, done wrong, acted wickedly.

7 Our ancestors in Egypt failed to grasp the meaning of your wonders. They didn't keep in mind your great deeds of grace but rebelled at the sea, at the Sea of Suf.

8 Yet he saved them for his own name's sake, to make known his mighty power.

9 He rebuked the Sea of Suf, and it dried up; he led them through its depths as through a desert.

10 He saved them from hostile hands, redeemed them from the power of the foe.

11 The water closed over their adversaries; not one of them was left.

12 Then they believed his words, and they sang his praise.

13 But soon they forgot his deeds and wouldn't wait for his counsel.

14 In the desert they gave way to insatiable greed; in the wastelands they put God to the test.

15 He gave them what they wanted but sent meagerness into their souls.

16 In the camp they were jealous of Moshe and Aharon, ADONAI's holy one.

17 The earth opened up and swallowed Datan and closed over Aviram's allies.

18 A fire blazed out against that group, the flames consumed the wicked.

19 In Horev they fashioned a calf, they worshipped a cast metal image.

20 Thus they exchanged their Glory for the image of an ox that eats grass!

21 They forgot God, who had saved them, who had done great things in Egypt,

22 wonders in the land of Ham, fearsome deeds by the Sea of Suf.

23 Therefore he said that he would destroy them, [and he would have,] had not Moshe his chosen one stood before him in the breach to turn back his destroying fury.

24 Next, they rejected the beautiful land, they didn't trust his promise;

25 and they complained in their tents, they didn't obey ADONAI.

26 Therefore, raising his hand, he swore to them that he would strike them down in the desert

27 and strike down their descendants among the nations, dispersing them in foreign lands.

28 Now they joined themselves to Ba'al-P'or and ate meat sacrificed to dead things.

29 Thus they provoked him to anger with their deeds, so that a plague broke out among them.

30 Then Pinchas stood up and executed judgment; so the plague was checked.

31 That was credited to him as righteousness, through all generations forever.

32 They angered him at the M'rivah Spring, and Moshe suffered on their account;

33 for when they embittered his spirit, [Moshe] spoke up without thinking.

34 They failed to destroy the peoples, as ADONAI had ordered them to do,

35 but mingled with the nations and learned to follow their ways.

36 They went on to serve their idols, which became a snare for them.

37 They even sacrificed their sons and their daughters to demons.

38 Yes, they shed innocent blood, the blood of their own sons and daughters, whom they sacrificed to Kena'an's false gods, polluting the land with blood.

39 Thus they were defiled by their deeds; they prostituted themselves by their actions,

40 For this ADONAI's fury blazed up against his people, and he detested his heritage.

41 He handed them over to the power of the nations, and those who hated them ruled over them.

42 Their enemies oppressed them and kept them in subjection to their power.

43 Many times [God] rescued them, but they kept making plans to rebel. Thus they were brought low by their own wrongdoing.

44 Still he took pity on their distress whenever he heard their cry.

45 For their sakes he kept in mind his covenant and in his limitless grace relented,

46 causing them to be treated with compassion by all who had taken them captive.

47 Save us, ADONAI our God! Gather us from among the nations, so that we can thank your holy name and glory in praising you.

48 Blessed be ADONAI, the God of Isra'el, from eternity past to eternity future. Now let all the people say, "Amen! Halleluyah!"

New King James Version NKJV

1 Praise the Lord! Oh, give thanks to the Lord, for He is good! For His mercy endures forever.

2 Who can utter the mighty acts of the Lord? Who can declare all His praise?

3 Blessed are those who keep justice, And he who does righteousness at all times!

4 Remember me, O Lord, with the favor You have toward Your people; Oh, visit me with Your salvation,

5 That I may see the benefit of Your chosen ones, That I may rejoice in the gladness of Your nation, That I may glory with Your inheritance.

6 We have sinned with our fathers, We have committed iniquity, We have done wickedly.

7 Our fathers in Egypt did not understand Your wonders; They did not remember the multitude of Your mercies, But rebelled by the sea--the Red Sea.

8 Nevertheless He saved them for His name's sake, That He might make His mighty power known.

9 He rebuked the Red Sea also, and it dried up; So He led them through the depths, As through the wilderness.

10 He saved them from the hand of him who hated them, And redeemed them from the hand of the enemy.

11 The waters covered their enemies; There was not one of them left.

12 Then they believed His words; They sang His praise.

13 They soon forgot His works; They did not wait for His counsel,

14 But lusted exceedingly in the wilderness, And tested God in the desert.

15 And He gave them their request, But sent leanness into their soul.

16 When they envied Moses in the camp, And Aaron the saint of the Lord,

17 The earth opened up and swallowed Dathan, And covered the faction of Abiram.

18 A fire was kindled in their company; The flame burned up the wicked.

19 They made a calf in Horeb, And worshiped the molded image.

20 Thus they changed their glory Into 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, Awesome things by the Red Sea.

23 Therefore He said that He would destroy them, Had not Moses His chosen one stood before Him in the breach, To turn away His wrath, lest He destroy them.

24 Then they despised the pleasant land; They did not believe His word,

25 But complained in their tents, And did not heed the voice of the Lord.

26 Therefore He raised up His hand in an oath against them, To overthrow them in the wilderness,

27 To overthrow their descendants among the nations, And to scatter them in the lands.

28 They joined themselves also to Baal of Peor, And ate sacrifices made to the dead.

29 Thus they provoked Him to anger with their deeds, And the plague broke out among them.

30 Then Phinehas stood up and intervened, And the plague was stopped.

31 And that was accounted to him for righteousness To all generations forevermore.

32 They angered Him also at the waters of strife, So that it went ill with Moses on account of them;

33 Because they rebelled against His Spirit, So that he spoke rashly with his lips.

34 They did not destroy the peoples, Concerning whom the Lord had commanded them,

35 But they mingled with the Gentiles And learned their works;

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

37 They even sacrificed their sons And their daughters to demons,

38 And shed 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 were defiled by their own works, And played the harlot by their own deeds.

40 Therefore the wrath of the Lord was kindled against His people, So that He abhorred His own inheritance.

41 And He gave them into the hand of the Gentiles, And those who hated them ruled over them.

42 Their enemies also oppressed them, And they were brought into subjection under their hand.

43 Many times He delivered them; But they rebelled in their counsel, And were brought low for their iniquity.

44 Nevertheless He regarded their affliction, When He heard their cry;

45 And for their sake He remembered His covenant, And relented according to the multitude of His mercies.

46 He also made them to be pitied By all those who carried them away captive.

47 Save us, O Lord our God, And gather us from among the Gentiles, To give thanks to Your holy name, To triumph in Your praise.

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