Psalm 106

Hebrew Names Version HNV

1 Praise the LORD! Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good, For his lovingkindness endures forever.

2 Who can utter the mighty acts of the LORD, Or fully declare all his praise?

3 Blessed are those who keep justice, He who does righteousness at all times.

4 Remember me, LORD, with the favor that you show to your people. Visit me with your yeshu`ah,

5 That I may see the prosperity of your chosen, 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 didn't understand your wonders in Mitzrayim. They didn't remember the multitude of your lovingkindnesses, But were rebellious at the sea, even at the Sea of Suf.

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

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

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 adversaries. There was not one of them left.

12 Then they believed his words. They sang his praise.

13 They soon forgot his works. They didn't wait for his counsel,

14 But gave in to craving in the desert, And tested God in the wasteland.

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

16 They envied Moshe also in the camp, And Aharon, the LORD's holy one.

17 The eretz opened and swallowed up Datan, And covered the company of Aviram.

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

19 They made a calf in Horev, And worshiped a molten image.

20 Thus they exchanged their glory For an image of a bull that eats grass.

21 They forgot God, their Savior, Who had done great things in Mitzrayim,

22 Wondrous works in the land of Ham, And awesome things by the Sea of Suf.

23 Therefore he said that he would destroy them, Had Moshe, his chosen, not stood before him in the breach, To turn away his wrath, so that he wouldn't destroy them.

24 Yes, they despised the pleasant land. They didn't believe his word,

25 But murmured in their tents, And didn't listen to the voice of the LORD.

26 Therefore he swore to them That he would overthrow them in the wilderness,

27 That he would overthrow their seed among the nations, And scatter them in the lands.

28 They joined themselves also to Ba`al-Pe`or, And ate the sacrifices of the dead.

29 Thus they provoked him to anger with their deeds. The plague broke in on them.

30 Then Pinechas stood up, and executed judgment, So the plague was stopped.

31 That was credited to him for righteousness, To all generations forevermore.

32 They angered him also at the waters of Merivah, So that Moshe was troubled for their sakes;

33 Because they were rebellious against his spirit, He spoke rashly with his lips.

34 They didn't destroy the peoples, As the LORD commanded them,

35 But mixed themselves with the nations, Learned their works.

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

37 Yes, they sacrificed their sons and their daughters to demons.

38 They shed innocent blood, Even the blood of their sons and of their daughters, Whom they sacrificed to the idols of Kana`an. The land was polluted with blood.

39 Thus were they defiled with their works, And prostituted themselves in their deeds.

40 Therefore the wrath of the LORD was kindled against his people. He abhorred his inheritance.

41 He gave them into the hand of the nations. Those who hated them ruled over them.

42 Their enemies also oppressed them. They were brought into subjection under their hand.

43 Many times he delivered them, But they were rebellious in their counsel, And were brought low in their iniquity.

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

45 He remembered for them his covenant, And repented according to the multitude of his lovingkindnesses.

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

47 Save us, LORD, our God, Gather us from among the nations, To give thanks to your holy name, To triumph in your praise!

48 Blessed be the LORD, the God of Yisra'el, From everlasting even to everlasting! Let all the people say, "Amein." Praise the LORD!

The Message Bible MSG

1 Hallelujah! Thank God! And why? Because he's good, because his love lasts.

2 But who on earth can do it - declaim God's mighty acts, broadcast all his praises?

3 You're one happy man when you do what's right, one happy woman when you form the habit of justice.

4 Remember me, God, when you enjoy your people; include me when you save them;

5 I want to see your chosen succeed, celebrate with your celebrating nation, join the Hallelujahs of your pride and joy!

6 We've sinned a lot, both we and our parents; We've fallen short, hurt a lot of people.

7 After our parents left Egypt, they took your wonders for granted, forgot your great and wonderful love. They were barely beyond the Red Sea when they defied the High God

8 - the very place he saved them! - the place he revealed his amazing power!

9 He rebuked the Red Sea so that it dried up on the spot - he paraded them right through! - no one so much as got wet feet!

10 He saved them from a life of oppression, pried them loose from the grip of the enemy.

11 Then the waters flowed back on their oppressors; there wasn't a single survivor.

12 Then they believed his words were true and broke out in songs of praise.

13 But it wasn't long before they forgot the whole thing, wouldn't wait to be told what to do.

14 They only cared about pleasing themselves in that desert, provoked God with their insistent demands.

15 He gave them exactly what they asked for - but along with it they got an empty heart.

16 One day in camp some grew jealous of Moses, also of Aaron, holy priest of God.

17 The ground opened and swallowed Dathan, then buried Abiram's gang.

18 Fire flared against that rebel crew and torched them to a cinder.

19 They cast in metal a bull calf at Horeb and worshiped the statue they'd made.

20 They traded the Glory for a cheap piece of sculpture - a grass-chewing bull!

21 They forgot God, their very own Savior, who turned things around in Egypt,

22 Who created a world of wonders in the Land of Ham, who gave that stunning performance at the Red Sea.

23 Fed up, God decided to get rid of them - and except for Moses, his chosen, he would have. But Moses stood in the gap and deflected God's anger, prevented it from destroying them utterly.

24 They went on to reject the Blessed Land, didn't believe a word of what God promised.

25 They found fault with the life they had and turned a deaf ear to God's voice.

26 Exasperated, God swore that he'd lay them low in the desert,

27 Scattering their children hither and yon, strewing them all over the earth.

28 Then they linked up with Baal Peor, attending funeral banquets and eating idol food.

29 That made God so angry that a plague spread through their ranks;

30 Phinehas stood up and pled their case and the plague was stopped.

31 This was counted to his credit; his descendants will never forget it.

32 They angered God again at Meribah Springs; this time Moses got mixed up in their evil;

33 Because they defied God yet again, Moses exploded and lost his temper.

34 They didn't wipe out those godless cultures as ordered by God;

35 Instead they intermarried with the heathen, and in time became just like them.

36 They worshiped their idols, were caught in the trap of idols.

37 They sacrificed their sons and daughters at the altars of demon gods.

38 They slit the throats of their babies, murdered their infant girls and boys. They offered their babies to Canaan's gods; the blood of their babies stained the land.

39 Their way of life stank to high heaven; they lived like whores.

40 And God was furious - a wildfire anger; he couldn't stand even to look at his people.

41 He turned them over to the heathen so that the people who hated them ruled them.

42 Their enemies made life hard for them; they were tyrannized under that rule.

43 Over and over God rescued them, but they never learned - until finally their sins destroyed them.

44 Still, when God saw the trouble they were in and heard their cries for help,

45 He remembered his Covenant with them, and, immense with love, took them by the hand.

46 He poured out his mercy on them while their captors looked on, amazed.

47 Save us, God, our God! Gather us back out of exile So we can give thanks to your holy name and join in the glory when you are praised!

48 Blessed be God, Israel's God! Bless now, bless always! Oh! Let everyone say Amen! Hallelujah!
