(Psa 106:1) Praise ye the Lord. O give thanks unto the Lord; for {he is} good: for his mercy {endureth} for ever.
(Psa 106:2) Who can utter the mighty acts of the Lord? {who} can shew forth all his praise?
(Psa 106:3) Blessed {are} they that keep judgment, {and} he that doeth righteousness at all times.
(Psa 106:4) Remember me, O Lord, with the favour {that thou bearest unto} thy people: O visit me with thy salvation;
(Psa 106:5) 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.
(Psa 106:6) We have sinned with our fathers, we have committed iniquity, we have done wickedly.
(Psa 106:7) 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.
(Psa 106:8) Nevertheless he saved them for his name's sake, that he might make his mighty power to be known.
(Psa 106:9) He rebuked the Red sea also, and it was dried up: so he led them through the depths, as through the wilderness.
(Psa 106:10) And he saved them from the hand of him that hated {them}, and redeemed them from the hand of the enemy.
(Psa 106:11) And the waters covered their enemies: there was not one of them left.
(Psa 106:12) Then believed they his words; they sang his praise.
(Psa 106:13) They soon forgat his works; they waited not for his counsel:
(Psa 106:14) But lusted exceedingly in the wilderness, and tempted God in the desert.
(Psa 106:15) And he gave them their request; but sent leanness into their soul.
(Psa 106:16) They envied Moses also in the camp, {and} Aaron the saint of the Lord.
(Psa 106:17) The earth opened and swallowed up Dathan and covered the company of Abiram.
(Psa 106:18) And a fire was kindled in their company; the flame burned up the wicked.
(Psa 106:19) They made a calf in Horeb, and worshipped the molten image.
(Psa 106:20) Thus they changed their glory into the similitude of an ox that eateth grass.
(Psa 106:21) They forgat God their saviour, which had done great things in Egypt;
(Psa 106:22) Wondrous works in the land of Ham, {and} terrible things by the Red sea.
(Psa 106:23) 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}.
(Psa 106:24) Yea, they despised the pleasant land, they believed not his word:
(Psa 106:25) But murmured in their tents, {and} hearkened not unto the voice of the Lord.
(Psa 106:26) Therefore he lifted up his hand against them, to overthrow them in the wilderness:
(Psa 106:27) To overthrow their seed also among the nations, and to scatter them in the lands.
(Psa 106:28) They joined themselves also unto Baalpeor, and ate the sacrifices of the dead.
(Psa 106:29) Thus they provoked {him} to anger with their inventions: and the plague brake in upon them.
(Psa 106:30) Then stood up Phinehas, and executed judgment: and {so} the plague was stayed.
(Psa 106:31) And that was counted unto him for righteousness unto all generations for evermore.
(Psa 106:32) They angered {him} also at the waters of strife, so that it went ill with Moses for their sakes:
(Psa 106:33) Because they provoked his spirit, so that he spake unadvisedly with his lips.
(Psa 106:34) They did not destroy the nations, concerning whom the Lord commanded them:
(Psa 106:35) But were mingled among the heathen, and learned their works.
(Psa 106:36) And they served their idols: which were a snare unto them.
(Psa 106:37) Yea, they sacrificed their sons and their daughters unto devils,
(Psa 106:38) 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.
(Psa 106:39) Thus were they defiled with their own works, and went a whoring with their own inventions.
(Psa 106:40) Therefore was the wrath of the Lord kindled against his people, insomuch that he abhorred his own inheritance.
(Psa 106:41) And he gave them into the hand of the heathen; and they that hated them ruled over them.
(Psa 106:42) Their enemies also oppressed them, and they were brought into subjection under their hand.
(Psa 106:43) Many times did he deliver them; but they provoked {him} with their counsel, and were brought low for their iniquity.
(Psa 106:44) Nevertheless he regarded their affliction, when he heard their cry:
(Psa 106:45) And he remembered for them his covenant, and repented according to the multitude of his mercies.
(Psa 106:46) He made them also to be pitied of all those that carried them captives.
(Psa 106:47) 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.
(Psa 106:48) Blessed {be} the Lord God of Israel from everlasting to everlasting: and let all the people say, Amen. Praise ye the Lord.
