Ps 106,107

PSALMS 106

1Ch 16:34-36

1 Praise the Lord!
Oh, give thanks unto the Lord, for He is good,
for His mercy endures forever.
2 (Ps 63:1; 84:2) Who can recount the mighty acts of the Lord
or declare all His praise?
3 (Ps 79:10; 80:5) Blessed are those who keep justice
and who do righteousness at all times.
4 (Isa 30:29; Ps 62:8) Remember me, O Lord, when
You give favor to Your people;
visit me with Your deliverance,
5 (Ps 42:11; 43:5) that I may see the goodness over Your chosen ones,
that I may rejoice in the gladness of Your nation,
that I may glory with Your inheritance.
6 (2Sa 17:22; Dt 3:8-) We have sinned with our fathers;
we have committed iniquity; we have done wickedly.
7 (Ps 88:7; Jnh 2:3) Our fathers did not consider
Your wonders in Egypt;
they did not remember the greatness of Your mercy,
but rebelled against Him at the sea, by the Red Sea.
8 (Job 35:10; Ps 63:6) Nevertheless He saved them for His name’s sake,
that He might make His mighty power known.
9 (Ps 38:6; 18:2) He rebuked the Red Sea, and it was driedup,
so He led them through the depths as through the wilderness.
10 (Ps 42:3; Joel 2:17) He saved them from the hand of him who hated them
and redeemed them from the hand of the enemy.
11 (Ps 42:5; 43:5) The waters covered their enemies;
there was not one of them left.
12 Then they believed His words;
they sang His praise.
13 But they soon forgot His works;
they did not wait for His counsel,
14 but they lusted exceedingly in the wilderness
and tested God in the desert.
15 He gave them their request,
but He sent a wasting disease on them.
16 They envied in the camp Moses
and Aaron, the holy priest of the Lord.
17 The earth opened and swallowed up Dathan
and engulfed those led by Abiram.
18 A fire broke out among their company;
the flame burned up the wicked.
19 They made a calf at Horeb,
and worshipped the molded image.
20 Thus they changed the glory of God
for the image of an ox that eats grass.
21 They forgot God, their Deliverer,
who had done great things in Egypt,
22 wondrous works in the land of Ham,
and marvelous deeds by the Red Sea.
23 Therefore He said that He would destroy them,
had not Moses, His chosen one,
stood before Him to intercede,
to turn away His wrath from destroying them.
24 Then they despised the pleasant land;
they did not believe His promise,
25 but they grumbled in their tents,
and did not listen to the voice of the Lord.
26 Therefore He lifted up His hand against them
and swore to overthrow them in the wilderness,
27 and to overthrow their offspring among the nations,
and to scatter them in the lands.
28 They joined themselves to Baal of Peor
and ate the sacrifices given for the dead.
29 Thus they provoked Him to anger with their acts,
and a plague broke out upon them.
30 Then Phinehas stood up and interceded,
and so the plague ceased.
31 That was counted unto him for righteousness
unto all generations forever.
32 They angered Him also at the waters of Meribah,
so that Moses suffered because of them,
33 because they provoked his temper,
so that he spoke impulsively with his lips.
34 They did not destroy the nations
as the Lord commanded them,
35 but they mixed among the nations
and learned their deeds;
36 they served their idols,
which were a snare to them.
37 Yes, they sacrificed their sons
and their daughters to demons,
38 and poured out innocent blood,
even the blood of their sons and of their daughters,
whom they sacrificed to the idols of Canaan,
and the land was polluted with blood.
39 Thus were they defiled by their acts
and acted like whores with these actions.
40 Therefore the wrath of the Lord was kindled against His people,
and He abhorred His own inheritance.
41 He gave them into the hand of the nations,
and those who hated them ruled over them.
42 Their enemies also oppressed them,
and Israel was brought into subjection under their powerful hand.
43 Many times He delivered them,
but they were rebellious against Him with their counsel,
and were afflicted for their iniquity.
44 Nevertheless, He regarded their affliction,
when He heard their cry:
45 and He remembered on their behalf His covenant
and relented according to the greatness of His mercies.
46 He made them pitied
among all those who held them captive.
47 Save us, O Lord our God,
and gather us from among the nations,
to give thanks unto Your holy name
and to boast in Your praise.
48 Blessed be the Lord God of Israel,
from everlasting to everlasting,
and let all the people say, "Amen!"
Praise the Lord!

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