- Kapitel 106 -

Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good

1
Alleluia. Give glory to the Lord, for he is good: for his mercy endureth for ever.
2
Who shall declare the powers of the Lord? who shall set forth all his praises?
3
Blessed are they that keep judgment, and do justice at all times.
4
Remember us, O Lord, in the favour of thy people: visit us with thy salvation.
5
That we may see the good of thy chosen, that we may rejoice in the joy of thy nation: that thou mayst be praised with thy inheritance.
6
We have sinned with our fathers: we have acted unjustly, we have wrought iniquity.
7
Our fathers understood not thy wonders in Egypt: they remembered not the multitude of thy mercies: And they provoked to wrath going up to the sea, even the Red Sea.
8
And he saved them for his own name’s sake: that he might make his power known.
9
And he rebuked the Red Sea, and it was dried up: and he led them through the depths, as in a wilderness.
10
And he saved them from the hand of them that hated them: and he redeemed them from the hand of the enemy.
11
And the water covered them that afflicted them: there was not one of them left.
12
And they believed his words: and they sang his praises.
13
They had quickly done, they forgot his works: and they waited not for his counsels.
14
And they coveted their desire in the desert: and they tempted God in the place without water.
15
And he gave them their request: and sent fulness into their souls.
16
And they provoked Moses in the camp, Aaron the holy one of the Lord.
17
The earth opened and swallowed up Dathan: and covered the congregation of Abiron.
18
And a fire was kindled in their congregation: the flame burned the wicked.
19
They made also a calf in Horeb: and they adored the graven thing.
20
And they changed their glory into the likeness of a calf that eateth grass.
21
They forgot God, who saved them, who had done great things in Egypt,
22
Wondrous works in the land of Cham: terrible things in the Red Sea.
23
And 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
And they set at nought the desirable land. They believed not his word,
25
And they murmured in their tents: they hearkened not to the voice of the Lord.
26
And he lifted up his hand over them: to overthrow them in the desert;
27
And to cast down their seed among the nations, and to scatter them in the countries.
28
They also were initiated to Beelphegor: and ate the sacrifices of the dead.
29
And they provoked him with their inventions: and destruction was multiplied among them.
30
Then Phinees stood up, and pacified him: and the slaughter ceased.
31
And it was reputed to him unto justice, to generation and generation for evermore.
32
They provoked him also at the waters of contradiction: and Moses was afflicted for their sakes:
33
Because they exasperated his spirit. And he distinguished with his lips.
34
They did not destroy the nations of which the Lord spoke unto them.
35
And they were mingled among the heathens, and learned their works:
36
And served their idols, and it became a stumblingblock to them.
37
And they sacrificed their sons, and their daughters to devils.
38
And they shed innocent blood: the blood of their sons and of their daughters which they sacrificed to the idols of Chanaan. And the land was polluted with blood,
39
And was defiled with their works: and they went aside after their own inventions.
40
And the Lord was exceedingly angry with his people: and he abhorred his inheritance.
41
And he delivered them into the hands of the nations: and they that hated them had dominion over them.
42
And their enemies afflicted them: and they were humbled under their hands:
43
Many times did he deliver them. But they provoked him with their counsel: and they were brought low by their iniquities.
44
And he saw when they were in tribulation: and he heard their prayer.
45
And he was mindful of his covenant: and repented according to the multitude of his mercies.
46
And he gave them unto mercies, in the sight of all those that had made them captives.
47
Save us, O Lord, our God: and gather us from among nations: That we may give thanks to thy holy name, and may glory in thy praise.
48
Blessed be the Lord the God of Israel, from everlasting to everlasting: and let all the people say: So be it, so be it.

Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good

1
Praise the LORD! Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good, for his loving kindness endures forever.
2
Who can utter the mighty acts of the LORD, or fully declare all his praise?
3
Blessed are those who keep justice. Blessed is one who does what is right at all times.
4
Remember me, LORD, with the favor that you show to your people. Visit me with your salvation,
5
that I may see the prosperity of your chosen, that I may rejoice in the gladness of your nation, that I may glory with your inheritance.
6
We have sinned with our fathers. We have committed iniquity. We have done wickedly.
7
Our fathers didn’t understand your wonders in Egypt. They didn’t remember the multitude of your loving kindnesses, but were rebellious 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 known.
9
He rebuked the Red Sea also, and it was dried up; so he led them through the depths, as through a desert.
10
He saved them from the hand of him who hated them, and redeemed them from the hand of the enemy.
11
The waters covered their adversaries. There was not one of them left.
12
Then they believed his words. They sang his praise.
13
They soon forgot his works. They didn’t wait for his counsel,
14
but gave in to craving in the desert, and tested God in the wasteland.
15
He gave them their request, but sent leanness into their soul.
16
They envied Moses also in the camp, and Aaron, the LORD’s saint.
17
The earth opened and swallowed up Dathan, and covered the company of Abiram.
18
A fire was kindled in their company. The flame burned up the wicked.
19
They made a calf in Horeb, and worshiped a molten image.
20
Thus they exchanged their glory for an image of a bull that eats grass.
21
They forgot God, their Savior, who had done great things in Egypt,
22
wondrous works in the land of Ham, and awesome things by the Red Sea.
23
Therefore he said that he would destroy them, had Moses, his chosen, not stood before him in the breach, to turn away his wrath, so that he wouldn’t destroy them.
24
Yes, they despised the pleasant land. They didn’t believe his word,
25
but murmured in their tents, and didn’t listen to the LORD’s voice.
26
Therefore he swore to them that he would overthrow them in the wilderness,
27
that he would overthrow their offspring among the nations, and scatter them in the lands.
28
They joined themselves also to Baal Peor, and ate the sacrifices of the dead.
29
Thus they provoked him to anger with their deeds. The plague broke in on them.
30
Then Phinehas stood up and executed judgment, so the plague was stopped.
31
That was credited to him for righteousness, for all generations to come.
32
They angered him also at the waters of Meribah, so that Moses was troubled for their sakes;
33
because they were rebellious against his spirit, he spoke rashly with his lips.
34
They didn’t destroy the peoples, as the LORD commanded them,
35
but mixed themselves with the nations, and learned their works.
36
They served their idols, which became a snare to them.
37
Yes, they sacrificed their sons and their daughters to demons.
38
They shed innocent blood, even the blood of their sons and of their daughters, whom they sacrificed to the idols of Canaan. The land was polluted with blood.
39
Thus they were defiled with their works, and prostituted themselves in their deeds.
40
Therefore the LORD burned with anger against his people. He abhorred his inheritance.
41
He gave them into the hand of the nations. Those who hated them ruled over them.
42
Their enemies also oppressed them. They were brought into subjection under their hand.
43
He rescued them many times, but they were rebellious in their counsel, and were brought low in their iniquity.
44
Nevertheless he regarded their distress, when he heard their cry.
45
He remembered for them his covenant, and repented according to the multitude of his loving kindnesses.
46
He made them also to be pitied by all those who carried them captive.
47
Save us, LORD, our God, gather us from among the nations, to give thanks to your holy name, to triumph in your praise!
48
Blessed be the LORD, the God of Israel, from everlasting even to everlasting! Let all the people say, “Amen.” Praise the LORD!
