Psalm 106 :: American Standard Version (ASV)

Israel's Rebelliousness and Jehovah's Deliverances.

Psa 106:1

Praise ye Jehovah.

Oh give thanks unto Jehovah; for he is good;

For his lovingkindness endureth forever.

Psa 106:2

Who can utter the mighty acts of Jehovah,

Or show forth all his praise?

Psa 106:3

Blessed are they that keep justice,

And he that doeth righteousness at all times.

Psa 106:4

Remember me, O Jehovah, with the favor that thou bearest unto thy people;

Oh visit me with thy salvation,

Psa 106:5

That I may see the prosperity 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 lovingkindnesses,

But were rebellious 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 a 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 adversaries;

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 Jehovah.

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 a molten image.

Psa 106:20

Thus they changed their glory

For the likeness of an ox that eateth grass.

Psa 106:21

They forgat God their Saviour,

Who 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 Jehovah.

Psa 106:26

Therefore he sware unto them,

That he would overthrow them in the wilderness,

Psa 106:27

And that he would overthrow their seed among the nations,

And scatter them in the lands.

Psa 106:28

They joined themselves also unto Baal-peor,

And ate the sacrifices of the dead.

Psa 106:29

Thus they provoked him to anger with their doings;

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 reckoned unto him for righteousness,

Unto all generations for evermore.

Psa 106:32

They angered him also at the waters of Meribah,

So that it went ill with Moses for their sakes;

Psa 106:33

Because they were rebellious against his spirit,

And he spake unadvisedly with his lips.

Psa 106:34

They did not destroy the peoples,

As Jehovah commanded them,

Psa 106:35

But mingled themselves with the nations,

And learned their works,

Psa 106:36

And served their idols,

Which became a snare unto them.

Psa 106:37

Yea, they sacrificed their sons and their daughters unto demons,

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 works,

And played the harlot in their doings.

Psa 106:40

Therefore was the wrath of Jehovah kindled against his people,

And he abhorred his inheritance.

Psa 106:41

And he gave them into the hand of the nations;

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 were rebellious in their counsel,

And were brought low in their iniquity.

Psa 106:44

Nevertheless he regarded their distress,

When he heard their cry:

Psa 106:45

And he remembered for them his covenant,

And repented according to the multitude of his lovingkindnesses.

Psa 106:46

He made them also to be pitied

Of all those that carried them captive.

Psa 106:47

Save us, O Jehovah our God,

And gather us from among the nations,

To give thanks unto thy holy name,

And to triumph in thy praise.

Psa 106:48

Blessed be Jehovah, the God of Israel,

From everlasting even to everlasting.

And let all the people say, Amen.

Praise ye Jehovah.
