106:1   Praise the LORD! Give thanks to the LORD, because he is good; his love is eternal.

106:2   Who can tell all the great things he has done? Who can praise him enough?

106:3   Happy are those who obey his commands, who always do what is right.

106:4   Remember me, LORD, when you help your people; include me when you save them.

106:5   Let me see the prosperity of your people and share in the happiness of your nation, in the glad pride of those who belong to you.

106:6   We have sinned as our ancestors did; we have been wicked and evil.

106:7   Our ancestors in Egypt did not understand God's wonderful acts; they forgot the many times he showed them his love, and they rebelled against the Almighty at the Red Sea.

106:8   But he saved them, as he had promised, in order to show his great power.

106:9   He gave a command to the Red Sea, and it dried up; he led his people across on dry land.

106:10   He saved them from those who hated them; he rescued them from their enemies.

106:11   But the water drowned their enemies; not one of them was left.

106:12   Then his people believed his promises and sang praises to him.

106:13   But they quickly forgot what he had done and acted without waiting for his advice.

106:14   They were filled with craving in the desert and put God to the test;

106:15   so he gave them what they asked for, but also sent a terrible disease among them.

106:16   There in the desert they were jealous of Moses and of Aaron, the LORD's holy servant.

106:17   Then the earth opened up and swallowed Dathan and buried Abiram and his family;

106:18   fire came down on their followers and burned up those wicked people.

106:19   They made a gold bull-calf at Sinai and worshiped that idol;

106:20   they exchanged the glory of God for the image of an animal that eats grass.

106:21   They forgot the God who had saved them by his mighty acts in Egypt.

106:22   What wonderful things he did there! What amazing things at the Red Sea!

106:23   When God said that he would destroy his people, his chosen servant, Moses, stood up against God and kept his anger from destroying them.

106:24   Then they rejected the pleasant land, because they did not believe God's promise.

106:25   They stayed in their tents and grumbled and would not listen to the LORD.

106:26   So he have them a solomn warning that he would make them die in the desert

106:27   and scatter their descendants among the heathen, letting them die in foreign countries.

106:28   Then at Peor, God's people joined in the worship of Baal and ate sacrifices offered to dead gods.

106:29   They stirred up the LORD's anger by their actions, and a terrible disease broke out among them.

106:30   But Phinehas stood up and punished the guilty, and the plague was stopped.

106:31   This has been remembered in his favor ever since and will be for all time to come.

106:32   At the springs of Meribah the people made the LORD angry, and Moses was in trouble on their account.

106:33   They made him so bitter that he spoke without stopping to think.

106:34   They did not kill the heathen, as the LORD had commanded them to do,

106:35   but they intermarried with them and adopted their pagan ways.

106:36   God's people worshiped idols, and this caused their destruction.

106:37   They offered their own sons and daughters as sacrifices to the idols of Canaan.

106:38   They killed those innocent children, and the land was defiled by those murders.

106:39   They made themselves impure by their actions and were unfaithful to God.

106:40   So the LORD was angry with his people; he was disgusted with them.

106:41   He abandoned them to the power of the heathen, and their enemies ruled over them.

106:42   They were oppressed by their enemies and were in complete subjection to them.

106:43   Many times the LORD rescued his people, but they chose to rebel against him and sank deeper into sin.

106:44   Yet the LORD heard them when they cried out, and he took notice of their distress.

106:45   For their sake he remembered his covenant, and because of his great love he relented.

106:46   He made all their oppressors feel sorry for them.

106:47   Save us, O LORD our God, and bring us back from among the nations, so that we may be thankful and praise your holy name.

106:48   Praise the LORD, the God of Israel; praise him now and forever! Let everyone say, "Amen!" Praise the LORD!
