106Psalms 106

1Praise ye the Lord. O give thanks unto the Lord; for he is good: for his mercy endureth for ever.Select Psalms 106:1

2Who can utter the mighty acts of the Lord? who can shew forth all his praise?Select Psalms 106:2

3Blessed are they that keep judgment, and he that doeth righteousness at all times.Select Psalms 106:3

4Remember me, O Lord, with the favour that thou bearest unto thy people: O visit me with thy salvation;Select Psalms 106:4

5That 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.Select Psalms 106:5

6We have sinned with our fathers, we have committed iniquity, we have done wickedly.Select Psalms 106:6

7Our 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.Select Psalms 106:7

8Nevertheless he saved them for his name’s sake, that he might make his mighty power to be known.Select Psalms 106:8

9He rebuked the Red sea also, and it was dried up: so he led them through the depths, as through the wilderness.Select Psalms 106:9

10And he saved them from the hand of him that hated them, and redeemed them from the hand of the enemy.Select Psalms 106:10

11And the waters covered their enemies: there was not one of them left.Select Psalms 106:11

12Then believed they his words; they sang his praise.Select Psalms 106:12

13They soon forgat his works; they waited not for his counsel:Select Psalms 106:13

14But lusted exceedingly in the wilderness, and tempted God in the desert.Select Psalms 106:14

15And he gave them their request; but sent leanness into their soul.Select Psalms 106:15

16They envied Moses also in the camp, and Aaron the saint of the Lord.Select Psalms 106:16

17The earth opened and swallowed up Dathan, and covered the company of Abiram.Select Psalms 106:17

18And a fire was kindled in their company; the flame burned up the wicked.Select Psalms 106:18

19They made a calf in Horeb, and worshipped the molten image.Select Psalms 106:19

20Thus they changed their glory into the similitude of an ox that eateth grass.Select Psalms 106:20

21They forgat God their saviour, which had done great things in Egypt;Select Psalms 106:21

22Wondrous works in the land of Ham, and terrible things by the Red sea.Select Psalms 106:22

23Therefore 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.Select Psalms 106:23

24Yea, they despised the pleasant land, they believed not his word:Select Psalms 106:24

25But murmured in their tents, and hearkened not unto the voice of the Lord.Select Psalms 106:25

26Therefore he lifted up his hand against them, to overthrow them in the wilderness:Select Psalms 106:26

27To overthrow their seed also among the nations, and to scatter them in the lands.Select Psalms 106:27

28They joined themselves also unto Baal–peor, and ate the sacrifices of the dead.Select Psalms 106:28

29Thus they provoked him to anger with their inventions: and the plague brake in upon them.Select Psalms 106:29

30Then stood up Phinehas, and executed judgment: and so the plague was stayed.Select Psalms 106:30

31And that was counted unto him for righteousness unto all generations for evermore.Select Psalms 106:31

32They angered him also at the waters of strife, so that it went ill with Moses for their sakes:Select Psalms 106:32

33Because they provoked his spirit, so that he spake unadvisedly with his lips.Select Psalms 106:33

34They did not destroy the nations, concerning whom the Lord commanded them:Select Psalms 106:34

35But were mingled among the heathen, and learned their works.Select Psalms 106:35

36And they served their idols: which were a snare unto them.Select Psalms 106:36

37Yea, they sacrificed their sons and their daughters unto devils,Select Psalms 106:37

38And 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.Select Psalms 106:38

39Thus were they defiled with their own works, and went a whoring with their own inventions.Select Psalms 106:39

40Therefore was the wrath of the Lord kindled against his people, insomuch that he abhorred his own inheritance.Select Psalms 106:40

41And he gave them into the hand of the heathen; and they that hated them ruled over them.Select Psalms 106:41

42Their enemies also oppressed them, and they were brought into subjection under their hand.Select Psalms 106:42

43Many times did he deliver them; but they provoked him with their counsel, and were brought low for their iniquity.Select Psalms 106:43

44Nevertheless he regarded their affliction, when he heard their cry:Select Psalms 106:44

45And he remembered for them his covenant, and repented according to the multitude of his mercies.Select Psalms 106:45

46He made them also to be pitied of all those that carried them captives.Select Psalms 106:46

47Save 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.Select Psalms 106:47

48Blessed be the Lord God of Israel from everlasting to everlasting: and let all the people say, Amen. Praise ye the Lord.Select Psalms 106:48
