Psalms 106

New International Version NIV

1 Praise the LORD.Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good; his love endures forever.

2 Who can proclaim the mighty acts of the LORDor fully declare his praise?

3 Blessed are those who act justly, who always do what is right.

4 Remember me, LORD, when you show favor to your people, come to my aid when you save them,

5 that 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.

6 We have sinned, even as our ancestors did; we have done wrong and acted wickedly.

7 When our ancestors 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.

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

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

10 He saved them from the hand of the foe; from the hand of the enemy he redeemed them.

11 The waters covered their adversaries; not one of them survived.

12 Then they believed his promises and sang his praise.

13 But they soon forgot what he had done and did not wait for his plan to unfold.

14 In the desert they gave in to their craving; in the wilderness they put God to the test.

15 So he gave them what they asked for, but sent a wasting disease among them.

16 In the camp they grew envious of Moses and of Aaron, who was consecrated to the LORD.

17 The earth opened up and swallowed Dathan; it buried the company of Abiram.

18 Fire blazed among their followers; a flame consumed the wicked.

19 At Horeb they made a calf and worshiped an idol cast from metal.

20 They exchanged their glorious God for an image of a bull, which eats grass.

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

22 miracles in the land of Ham and awesome deeds by the Red Sea.

23 So 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.

24 Then they despised the pleasant land; they did not believe his promise.

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;

29 they aroused the LORD’s anger by their wicked deeds, and a plague broke out among them.

30 But Phinehas stood up and intervened, and the plague was checked.

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.

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

35 but they mingled with the nations and adopted their customs.

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

37 They sacrificed their sons and their daughters to false gods.

38 They 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.

39 They defiled themselves by what they did; by their deeds they prostituted themselves.

40 Therefore the LORD was angry with his people and abhorred his inheritance.

41 He gave them into the hands of the nations, and their foes ruled over them.

42 Their enemies oppressed them and subjected them to their power.

43 Many times he delivered them, but they were bent on rebellion and they wasted away in their sin.

44 Yet he took note of their distress when he heard their cry;

45 for their sake he remembered his covenant and out of his great love he relented.

46 He caused all who held them captive to show them mercy.

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

48 Praise be to the LORD, the God of Israel, from everlasting to everlasting. Let all the people say, “Amen!” Praise the LORD.

Common English Bible CEB

1 Praise the LORD! Give thanks to the LORD because he is good, because his faithful love endures forever.

2 Who could possibly repeat all of the LORD's mighty acts or publicly recount all his praise?

3 The people who uphold justice, who always do what is right, are truly happy!

4 Remember me, LORD, with the favor you show your people. Visit me with your saving help

5 so I can experience the good things your chosen ones experience, so I can rejoice in the joy of your nation, so I can praise along with your possession.

6 We have sinned—right along with our ancestors. We've done what is wrong. We've acted wickedly.

7 Our ancestors in Egypt didn't understand your wondrous works. They didn't remember how much faithful love you have. So they rebelled by the sea—at the Reed Sea.

8 But God saved them for the sake of his good name, to make known his mighty power.

9 God scolded the Reed Sea, and it dried right up; he led them through the deeps like they were a dry desert.

10 God saved them from hostile powers; he redeemed them from the power of the enemy.

11 But the waters covered over their foes— not one of them survived!

12 So our ancestors trusted God's words; they sang God's praise.

13 But how quickly they forgot what he had done! They wouldn't wait for his advice.

14 They were overcome with craving in the desert; they tested God in the wastelands.

15 God gave them what they asked for; he sent food to satisfy their appetites.

16 But then they were jealous of Moses in the camp, jealous too of Aaron, the LORD's holy one.

17 So the earth opened up, swallowing Dathan, and covering over Abiram's crowd.

18 Fire blazed throughout that whole group; flames burned up the wicked.

19 They made a calf at Horeb, bowing down to a metal idol.

20 They traded their glorious God for an image of a bull that eats grass.

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

22 wondrous works in the land of Ham, awesome deeds at the Reed Sea.

23 So God determined that he would destroy them— except for the fact that Moses, his chosen one, stood in the way, right in front of him, and turned God's destructive anger away.

24 But then they rejected the land that was so desirable. They didn't trust God's promise.

25 They muttered in their tents and wouldn't listen to the LORD's voice.

26 So God raised his hand against them, making them fall in the desert,

27 scattering their offspring among the nations, casting them across many lands.

28 They joined themselves to Baal-peor and ate sacrifices offered to the dead.

29 They made God angry by what they did, so a plague broke out against them.

30 Then Phinehas stood up and prayed, and the plague was contained.

31 That's why Phinehas is considered righteous, generation after generation, forever.

32 But they angered God at Meribah's waters, and things went badly for Moses because of them,

33 because they made him bitter so that he spoke rashly with his lips.

34 They didn't destroy the nations as the LORD had ordered them to do.

35 Instead, they got mixed up with the nations, learning what they did

36 and serving those false gods, which became a trap for them.

37 They sacrificed their own sons and daughters to demons!

38 They shed innocent blood, the blood of their own sons and daughters— the ones they sacrificed to Canaan's false gods— so the land was defiled by the bloodshed.

39 They made themselves unclean by what they did; they prostituted themselves by their actions.

40 So the LORD's anger burned against his people; he despised his own possession.

41 God handed them over to the nations; people who hated them ruled over them.

42 Their enemies oppressed them, and they were humbled under their power.

43 God delivered them numerous times, but they were determined to rebel, and so they were brought down by their own sin.

44 But God saw their distress when he heard their loud cries.

45 God remembered his covenant for their sake, and because of how much faithful love he has, God changed his mind.

46 God allowed them to receive compassion from all their captors.

47 LORD our God, save us! Gather us back together from among all the nations so we can give thanksto your holy name and rejoice in your praise!

48 Bless the LORD, the God of Israel, from forever ago to forever from now! And let all the people say, "Amen!" Praise the LORD!
