Psalm 106 :: Bible in Basic English (BBE)

Israel's Rebelliousness and the LORD'S Deliverances.

Psa 106:1

Psa 106:1Let the Lord be praised. O give praise to the Lord, for he is good: for his mercy is unchanging for ever.

Psa 106:2

Psa 106:2Who is able to give an account of the great acts of the Lord, or to make clear all his praise?

Psa 106:3

Psa 106:3Happy are they whose decisions are upright, and he who does righteousness at all times.

Psa 106:4

Psa 106:4Keep me in mind, O Lord, when you are good to your people; O let your salvation come to me;

Psa 106:5

Psa 106:5So that I may see the well-being of the people of your selection, and have a part in the joy of your nation, and take pride in your heritage.

Psa 106:6

Psa 106:6We are sinners like our fathers, we have done wrong, our acts are evil.

Psa 106:7

Psa 106:7Our fathers did not give thought to your wonders in Egypt; they did not keep in memory the great number of your mercies, but gave you cause for wrath at the sea, even at the Red Sea.

Psa 106:8

Psa 106:8But he was their saviour because of his name, so that men might see his great power.

Psa 106:9

Psa 106:9By his word the Red Sea was made dry: and he took them through the deep waters as through the waste land.

Psa 106:10

Psa 106:10And he took them safely out of the hands of their haters, and kept them from the attacks of those who were against them.

Psa 106:11

Psa 106:11And the waters went over their haters; all of them came to an end.

Psa 106:12

Psa 106:12Then they had faith in his words; they gave him songs of praise.

Psa 106:13

Psa 106:13But their memory of his works was short; not waiting to be guided by him,

Psa 106:14

Psa 106:14They gave way to their evil desires in the waste land, and put God to the test in the dry places.

Psa 106:15

Psa 106:15And he gave them their request, but sent a wasting disease into their souls.

Psa 106:16

Psa 106:16They were full of envy against Moses among the tents, and against Aaron, the holy one of the Lord.

Psa 106:17

Psa 106:17The earth opening put an end to Dathan, covering up Abiram and his band.

Psa 106:18

Psa 106:18And a fire was lighted among their tents; the sinners were burned up by the flames.

Psa 106:19

Psa 106:19They made a young ox in Horeb, and gave worship to an image of gold.

Psa 106:20

Psa 106:20And their glory was changed into the image of an ox, whose food is grass.

Psa 106:21

Psa 106:21They had no memory of God their saviour, who had done great things in Egypt;

Psa 106:22

Psa 106:22Works of wonder in the land of Ham, and things of fear by the Red Sea.

Psa 106:23

Psa 106:23And he was purposing to put an end to them if Moses, his special servant, had not gone up before him, between him and his people, turning back his wrath, to keep them from destruction.

Psa 106:24

Psa 106:24They were disgusted with the good land; they had no belief in his word;

Psa 106:25

Psa 106:25Talking against him secretly in their tents, they did not give ear to the voice of the Lord.

Psa 106:26

Psa 106:26So he made an oath against them, to put an end to them in the waste land:

Psa 106:27

Psa 106:27That their children might be mixed among the nations, and sent away into other lands.

Psa 106:28

Psa 106:28And they were joined to Baal-peor, and took part in the offerings to the dead.

Psa 106:29

Psa 106:29So they made him angry by their behaviour; and he sent disease on them.

Psa 106:30

Psa 106:30Then Phinehas got up, and made prayer for them; and the disease went no farther.

Psa 106:31

Psa 106:31And all the generations coming after him kept the memory of his righteousness for ever.

Psa 106:32

Psa 106:32They made God angry again at the waters of Meribah, so that Moses was troubled because of them;

Psa 106:33

Psa 106:33For they made his spirit bitter, and he said unwise things.

Psa 106:34

Psa 106:34They did not put an end to the peoples, as the Lord had said;

Psa 106:35

Psa 106:35But they were joined to the nations, learning their works.

Psa 106:36

Psa 106:36And they gave worship to images; which were a danger to them:

Psa 106:37

Psa 106:37They even made offerings of their sons and their daughters to evil spirits,

Psa 106:38

Psa 106:38And gave the blood of their sons and their daughters who had done no wrong, offering them to the images of Canaan; and the land was made unclean with blood.

Psa 106:39

Psa 106:39So they became unclean through their works, going after their evil desires.

Psa 106:40

Psa 106:40Then the wrath of the Lord was burning against his people, and he was angry with his heritage.

Psa 106:41

Psa 106:41And he gave them into the hands of the nations; and they were ruled by their haters.

Psa 106:42

Psa 106:42By them they were crushed, and made low under their hands.

Psa 106:43

Psa 106:43Again and again he made them free; but their hearts were turned against his purpose, and they were overcome by their sins.

Psa 106:44

Psa 106:44But when their cry came to his ears, he had pity on their trouble:

Psa 106:45

Psa 106:45And kept in mind his agreement with them, and in his great mercy gave them forgiveness.

Psa 106:46

Psa 106:46He put pity into the hearts of those who made them prisoners.

Psa 106:47

Psa 106:47Be our saviour, O Lord our God, and let us come back together from among the nations, so that we may give honour to your holy name, and have glory in your praise.

Psa 106:48

Psa 106:48Praise be to the Lord God of Israel for ever and for ever; and let all the people say, So be it. Give praise to the Lord.
