Psalm 106

King James Version KJV

1 Praise ye the LORD. O give thanks unto the LORD; for he is good: for his mercy endureth for ever.

2 Who can utter the mighty acts of the LORD? who can shew forth all his praise?

3 Blessed are they that keep judgment, and he that doeth righteousness at all times.

4 Remember me, O LORD, with the favour that thou bearest unto thy people: O visit me with thy salvation;

5 That I may see the good of thy chosen, that I may rejoice in the gladness of thy nation, that I may glory with thine inheritance.

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

7 Our fathers understood not thy wonders in Egypt; they remembered not the multitude of thy mercies; but provoked him at the sea, even at the Red sea.

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

9 He rebuked the Red sea also, and it was dried up: so he led them through the depths, as through the wilderness.

10 And he saved them from the hand of him that hated them, and redeemed them from the hand of the enemy.

11 And the waters covered their enemies: there was not one of them left.

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

13 They soon forgat his works; they waited not for his counsel:

14 But lusted exceedingly in the wilderness, and tempted God in the desert.

15 And he gave them their request; but sent leanness into their soul.

16 They envied Moses also in the camp, and Aaron the saint of the LORD.

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

18 And a fire was kindled in their company; the flame burned up the wicked.

19 They made a calf in Horeb, and worshipped the molten image.

20 Thus they changed their glory into the similitude of an ox that eateth grass.

21 They forgat God their saviour, which 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 that he would destroy them, had not Moses his chosen stood before him in the breach, to turn away his wrath, lest he should destroy them.

24 Yea, they despised the pleasant land, they believed not his word:

25 But murmured in their tents, and hearkened not unto the voice of the LORD.

26 Therefore he lifted up his hand against them, to overthrow them in the wilderness:

27 To overthrow their seed also among the nations, and to scatter them in the lands.

28 They joined themselves also unto Baalpeor, and ate the sacrifices of the dead.

29 Thus they provoked him to anger with their inventions: and the plague brake in upon them.

30 Then stood up Phinehas, and executed judgment: and so the plague was stayed.

31 And that was counted unto him for righteousness unto all generations for evermore.

32 They angered him also at the waters of strife, so that it went ill with Moses for their sakes:

33 Because they provoked his spirit, so that he spake unadvisedly with his lips.

34 They did not destroy the nations, concerning whom the LORD commanded them:

35 But were mingled among the heathen, and learned their works.

36 And they served their idols: which were a snare unto them.

37 Yea, they sacrificed their sons and their daughters unto devils,

38 And shed innocent blood, even the blood of their sons and of their daughters, whom they sacrificed unto the idols of Canaan: and the land was polluted with blood.

39 Thus were they defiled with their own works, and went a whoring with their own inventions.

40 Therefore was the wrath of the LORD kindled against his people, insomuch that he abhorred his own inheritance.

41 And he gave them into the hand of the heathen; and they that hated them ruled over them.

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

43 Many times did he deliver them; but they provoked him with their counsel, and were brought low for their iniquity.

44 Nevertheless he regarded their affliction, when he heard their cry:

45 And he remembered for them his covenant, and repented according to the multitude of his mercies.

46 He made them also to be pitied of all those that carried them captives.

47 Save us, O LORD our God, and gather us from among the heathen, to give thanks unto thy holy name, and to triumph in thy praise.

48 Blessed be the LORD God of Israel from everlasting to everlasting: and let all the people say, Amen. Praise ye the LORD.

Good News Translation GNT

1 Praise the Lord! Give thanks to the Lord, because he is good; his love is eternal.

2 Who can tell all the great things he has done? Who can praise him enough?

3 Happy are those who obey his commands, who always do what is right.

4 Remember me, Lord, when you help your people; include me when you save them.

5 Let me see the prosperity of your people and share in the happiness of your nation, in the glad pride of those who belong to you.

6 We have sinned as our ancestors did; we have been wicked and evil.

7 Our ancestors in Egypt did not understand God's wonderful acts; they forgot the many times he showed them his love, and they rebelled against the Almighty at the Red Sea.

8 But he saved them, as he had promised, in order to show his great power.

9 He gave a command to the Red Sea, and it dried up; he led his people across on dry land.

10 He saved them from those who hated them; he rescued them from their enemies.

11 But the water drowned their enemies; not one of them was left.

12 Then his people believed his promises and sang praises to him.

13 But they quickly forgot what he had done and acted without waiting for his advice.

14 They were filled with craving in the desert and put God to the test;

15 so he gave them what they asked for, but also sent a terrible disease among them.

16 There in the desert they were jealous of Moses and of Aaron, the Lord's holy servant.

17 Then the earth opened up and swallowed Dathan and buried Abiram and his family;

18 fire came down on their followers and burned up those wicked people.

19 They made a gold bull-calf at Sinai and worshiped that idol;

20 they exchanged the glory of God for the image of an animal that eats grass.

21 They forgot the God who had saved them by his mighty acts in Egypt.

22 What wonderful things he did there! What amazing things at the Red Sea!

23 When God said that he would destroy his people, his chosen servant, Moses, stood up against God and kept his anger from destroying them.

24 Then they rejected the pleasant land, because they did not believe God's promise.

25 They stayed in their tents and grumbled and would not listen to the Lord.

26 So he gave them a solemn warning that he would make them die in the desert

27 and scatter their descendants among the heathen, letting them die in foreign countries.

28 Then at Peor, God's people joined in the worship of Baal and ate sacrifices offered to dead gods.

29 They stirred up the Lord's anger by their actions, and a terrible disease broke out among them.

30 But Phinehas stood up and punished the guilty, and the plague was stopped.

31 This has been remembered in his favor ever since and will be for all time to come.

32 At the springs of Meribah the people made the Lord angry, and Moses was in trouble on their account.

33 They made him so bitter that he spoke without stopping to think.

34 They did not kill the heathen, as the Lord had commanded them to do,

35 but they intermarried with them and adopted their pagan ways.

36 God's people worshiped idols, and this caused their destruction.

37 They offered their own sons and daughters as sacrifices to the idols of Canaan.

38 They killed those innocent children, and the land was defiled by those murders.

39 They made themselves impure by their actions and were unfaithful to God.

40 So the Lord was angry with his people; he was disgusted with them.

41 He abandoned them to the power of the heathen, and their enemies ruled over them.

42 They were oppressed by their enemies and were in complete subjection to them.

43 Many times the Lord rescued his people, but they chose to rebel against him and sank deeper into sin.

44 Yet the Lord heard them when they cried out, and he took notice of their distress.

45 For their sake he remembered his covenant, and because of his great love he relented.

46 He made all their oppressors feel sorry for them.

47 Save us, O Lord our God, and bring us back from among the nations, so that we may be thankful and praise your holy name.

48 Praise the Lord, the God of Israel; praise him now and forever! Let everyone say, "Amen!" Praise the Lord!
