Darby - Psalms - 106

106:1  Hallelujah! Give ye thanks unto Jehovah; for he is good; for his loving-kindness [endureth] for ever.

106:2  Who can utter the mighty acts of Jehovah? [who] can shew forth all his praise?

106:3  Blessed are they that keep justice, [and] he that doeth righteousness at all times.

106:4  Remember me, O Jehovah, with [thy] favour toward thy people; visit me with thy salvation:

106:5  That I may see the prosperity of thy chosen ones, that I may rejoice in the joy of thy nation, that I may glory with thine inheritance.

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

106:7  Our fathers in Egypt considered not thy wondrous works; they remembered not the multitude of thy loving-kindnesses; but they rebelled at the sea, at the Red Sea.

106:8  Yet he saved them for his name's sake, that he might make known his might.

106:9  And he rebuked the Red Sea, and it dried up; and he led them through the deeps as through a wilderness.

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

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

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

106:13  They soon forgot his works; they waited not for his counsel:

106:14  And they lusted exceedingly in the wilderness, and temptedGod in the desert.

106:15  Then he gave them their request, but sent leanness into their soul.

106:16  And they envied Moses in the camp, [and] Aaron, the saint of Jehovah.

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

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

106:19  They made a calf in Horeb, and did homage to a molten image;

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

106:21  They forgotGod their Saviour, who had done great things in Egypt,

106:22  Wondrous works in the land of Ham, terrible things by the Red Sea.

106:23  And he said that he would destroy them, had not Moses, his chosen, stood before him in the breach, to turn away his fury, lest he should destroy [them].

106:24  And they despised the pleasant land; they believed not his word,

106:25  But murmured in their tents: they hearkened not unto the voice of Jehovah.

106:26  And he lifted up his hand to them, that he would make them fall in the wilderness;

106:27  And that he would make their seed fall among the nations, and disperse them through the countries.

106:28  And they joined themselves unto Baal-Peor, and ate the sacrifices of the dead;

106:29  And they provoked [him] to anger with their doings; and a plague broke out among them.

106:30  Then stood up Phinehas and executed judgment, and the plague was stayed;

106:31  And that was reckoned unto him for righteousness, from generation to generation, for evermore.

106:32  And they moved him to wrath at the waters of Meribah, and it went ill with Moses on their account;

106:33  For they provoked his spirit, so that he spoke unadvisedly with his lips.

106:34  They did not destroy the peoples, as Jehovah commanded them;

106:35  But they mingled with the nations, and learned their works;

106:36  And they served their idols; and they were a snare unto them:

106:37  And they sacrificed their sons and their daughters unto demons,

106:38  And shed innocent blood, the blood of their sons and of their daughters, whom they sacrificed unto the idols of Canaan; and the land was polluted with blood.

106:39  And they were defiled with their works, and went a-whoring in their doings.

106:40  Then was the anger of Jehovah kindled against his people, and he abhorred his inheritance;

106:41  And he gave them into the hand of the nations; and they that hated them ruled over them:

106:42  And their enemies oppressed them, and they were brought into subjection under their hand.

106:43  Often did he deliver them; but as for them they provoked [him] by their counsel, and they were brought low by their iniquity.

106:44  But he regarded their distress, when he heard their cry;

106:45  And he remembered for them his covenant, and repented according to the multitude of his loving-kindnesses;

106:46  And he caused them to find compassion of all those that had carried them captives.

106:47  Save us, Jehovah ourGod, and gather us from among the nations, to give thanks unto thy holy name, [and] to triumph in thy praise.

106:48  Blessed be Jehovah theGod of Israel, from eternity and to eternity! And let all the people say, Amen! Hallelujah!
