1. Hallelujah! Give thanks to the LORD, who is good, whose love endures forever.
|
1. Praise H1984 ye the LORD H3050 . O give thanks H3034 unto the LORD H3068 ; for H3588 he is good H2896 : for H3588 his mercy H2617 endureth forever H5769 .
|
|
2. Who can tell the mighty deeds of the LORD, proclaim in full God's praise?
|
2. Who H4310 can utter H4448 the mighty acts H1369 of the LORD H3068 ? who can show forth H8085 all H3605 his praise H8416 ?
|
|
3. Happy those who do what is right, whose deeds are always just.
|
3. Blessed H835 are they that keep H8104 judgment H4941 , and he that doeth H6213 righteousness H6666 at all H3605 times H6256 .
|
|
4. Remember me, LORD, as you favor your people; come to me with your saving help,
|
4. Remember H2142 me , O LORD H3068 , with the favor H7522 that thou bearest unto thy people H5971 : O visit H6485 me with thy salvation H3444 ;
|
|
5. That I may see the prosperity of your chosen, rejoice in the joy of your people, and glory with your heritage.
|
5. That I may see H7200 the good H2896 of thy chosen H972 , that I may rejoice H8055 in the gladness H8057 of thy nation H1471 , that I may glory H1984 with H5973 thine inheritance H5159 .
|
|
6. We have sinned like our ancestors; we have done wrong and are guilty.
|
6. We have sinned H2398 with H5973 our fathers H1 , we have committed iniquity H5753 , we have done wickedly H7561 .
|
|
7. Our ancestors in Egypt did not attend to your wonders. They did not remember your great love; they defied the Most High at the Red Sea.
|
7. Our fathers H1 understood H7919 not H3808 thy wonders H6381 in Egypt H4714 ; they remembered H2142 not H3808 H853 the multitude H7230 of thy mercies H2617 ; but provoked H4784 him at H5921 the sea H3220 , even at the Red H5488 sea H3220 .
|
|
8. Yet he saved them for his name's sake to make his power known.
|
8. Nevertheless he saved H3467 them for his name's sake H4616 H8034 , that he might make H853 his mighty power H1369 to be known H3045 .
|
|
9. He roared at the Red Sea and it dried up. He led them through the deep as through a desert.
|
9. He rebuked H1605 the Red H5488 sea H3220 also , and it was dried up H2717 : so he led H1980 them through the depths H8415 , as through the wilderness H4057 .
|
|
10. He rescued them from hostile hands, freed them from the power of the enemy.
|
10. And he saved H3467 them from the hand H4480 H3027 of him that hated H8130 them , and redeemed H1350 them from the hand H4480 H3027 of the enemy H341 .
|
|
11. The waters covered their oppressors; not one of them survived.
|
11. And the waters H4325 covered H3680 their enemies H6862 : there was not H3808 one H259 of H4480 them left H3498 .
|
|
12. Then they believed his words and sang songs of praise.
|
12. Then believed H539 they his words H1697 ; they sang H7891 his praise H8416 .
|
|
13. But they soon forgot all he had done; they had no patience for his plan.
|
13. They soon H4116 forgot H7911 his works H4639 ; they waited H2442 not H3808 for his counsel H6098 :
|
|
14. In the desert they gave way to their cravings, tempted God in the wasteland.
|
14. But lusted exceedingly H183 H8378 in the wilderness H4057 , and tempted H5254 God H410 in the desert H3452 .
|
|
15. So he gave them what they asked and sent among them a wasting disease.
|
15. And he gave H5414 them their request H7596 ; but sent H7971 leanness H7332 into their soul H5315 .
|
|
16. In the camp they challenged Moses and Aaron, the holy one of the LORD.
|
16. They envied H7065 Moses H4872 also in the camp H4264 , and Aaron H175 the saint H6918 of the LORD H3068 .
|
|
17. The earth opened and swallowed Dathan, it closed on the followers of Abiram.
|
17. The earth H776 opened H6605 and swallowed up H1104 Dathan H1885 , and covered H3680 H5921 the company H5712 of Abiram H48 .
|
|
18. Against that company the fire blazed; flames consumed the wicked.
|
18. And a fire H784 was kindled H1197 in their company H5712 ; the flame H3852 burned up H3857 the wicked H7563 .
|
|
19. At Horeb they fashioned a calf, worshiped a metal statue.
|
19. They made H6213 a calf H5695 in Horeb H2722 , and worshiped H7812 the molten image H4541 .
|
|
20. They exchanged their glorious God for the image of a grass-eating bull.
|
20. Thus they changed H4171 H853 their glory H3519 into the similitude H8403 of an ox H7794 that eateth H398 grass H6212 .
|
|
21. They forgot the God who saved them, who did great deeds in Egypt,
|
21. They forgot H7911 God H410 their savior H3467 , which had done H6213 great things H1419 in Egypt H4714 ;
|
|
22. Amazing deeds in the land of Ham, fearsome deeds at the Red Sea.
|
22. Wondrous works H6381 in the land H776 of Ham H2526 , and terrible things H3372 by H5921 the Red H5488 sea H3220 .
|
|
23. He would have decreed their destruction, had not Moses, the chosen leader, Withstood him in the breach to turn back his destroying anger.
|
23. Therefore he said H559 that he would destroy H8045 them , had not H3884 Moses H4872 his chosen H972 stood H5975 before H6440 him in the breach H6556 , to turn away H7725 his wrath H2534 , lest he should destroy H4480 H7843 them .
|
|
24. Next they despised the beautiful land; they did not believe the promise.
|
24. Yea , they despised H3988 the pleasant H2532 land H776 , they believed H539 not H3808 his word H1697 :
|
|
25. In their tents they complained; they did not obey the LORD.
|
25. But murmured H7279 in their tents H168 , and hearkened H8085 not H3808 unto the voice H6963 of the LORD H3068 .
|
|
26. So with raised hand he swore to destroy them in the desert,
|
26. Therefore he lifted up H5375 his hand H3027 against them , to overthrow H5307 them in the wilderness H4057 :
|
|
27. To scatter their descendants among the nations, disperse them in foreign lands.
|
27. To overthrow H5307 their seed H2233 also among the nations H1471 , and to scatter H2219 them in the lands H776 .
|
|
28. They joined in the rites of Baal of Peor, ate food sacrificed to dead gods.
|
28. They joined themselves H6775 also unto Baalpeor H1187 , and ate H398 the sacrifices H2077 of the dead H4191 .
|
|
29. They provoked him by their actions, and a plague broke out among them.
|
29. Thus they provoked him to anger H3707 with their inventions H4611 : and the plague H4046 broke in H6555 upon them.
|
|
30. Then Phinehas rose to intervene, and the plague was brought to a halt.
|
30. Then stood up H5975 Phinehas H6372 , and executed judgment H6419 : and so the plague H4046 was stayed H6113 .
|
|
31. This was counted for him as a righteous deed for all generations to come.
|
31. And that was counted H2803 unto him for righteousness H6666 unto all generations H1755 H1755 forevermore H5704 H5769 .
|
|
32. At the waters of Meribah they angered God, and Moses suffered because of them.
|
32. They angered H7107 him also at H5921 the waters H4325 of strife H4808 , so that it went ill H3415 with Moses H4872 for their sakes H5668 :
|
|
33. They so embittered his spirit that rash words crossed his lips.
|
33. Because H3588 they provoked H4784 H853 his spirit H7307 , so that he spoke unadvisedly H981 with his lips H8193 .
|
|
34. They did not destroy the peoples as the LORD had commanded them,
|
34. They did not H3808 destroy H8045 H853 the nations H5971 , concerning whom H834 the LORD H3068 commanded H559 them:
|
|
35. But mingled with the nations and imitated their ways.
|
35. But were mingled H6148 among the heathen H1471 , and learned H3925 their works H4639 .
|
|
36. They worshiped their idols and were ensnared by them.
|
36. And they served H5647 H853 their idols H6091 : which were H1961 a snare H4170 unto them.
|
|
37. They sacrificed to the gods their own sons and daughters,
|
37. Yea , they sacrificed H2076 H853 their sons H1121 and their daughters H1323 unto devils H7700 ,
|
|
38. Shedding innocent blood, the blood of their own sons and daughters, Whom they sacrificed to the idols of Canaan, desecrating the land with bloodshed.
|
38. And shed H8210 innocent H5355 blood H1818 , even the blood H1818 of their sons H1121 and of their daughters H1323 , whom H834 they sacrificed H2076 unto the idols H6091 of Canaan H3667 : and the land H776 was polluted H2610 with blood H1818 .
|
|
39. They defiled themselves by their actions, became adulterers by their conduct.
|
39. Thus were they defiled H2930 with their own works H4639 , and went a whoring H2181 with their own inventions H4611 .
|
|
40. So the LORD grew angry with his people, abhorred his own heritage.
|
40. Therefore was the wrath H639 of the LORD H3068 kindled H2734 against his people H5971 , insomuch that he abhorred H8581 H853 his own inheritance H5159 .
|
|
41. He handed them over to the nations, and their adversaries ruled them.
|
41. And he gave H5414 them into the hand H3027 of the heathen H1471 ; and they that hated H8130 them ruled H4910 over them.
|
|
42. Their enemies oppressed them, kept them under subjection.
|
42. Their enemies H341 also oppressed H3905 them , and they were brought into subjection H3665 under H8478 their hand H3027 .
|
|
43. Many times did he rescue them, but they kept rebelling and scheming and were brought low by their own guilt.
|
43. Many H7227 times H6471 did he deliver H5337 them ; but they H1992 provoked H4784 him with their counsel H6098 , and were brought low H4355 for their iniquity H5771 .
|
|
44. Still God had regard for their affliction when he heard their wailing.
|
44. Nevertheless he regarded H7200 their affliction H6862 , when he heard H8085 H853 their cry H7440 :
|
|
45. For their sake he remembered his covenant and relented in his abundant love,
|
45. And he remembered H2142 for them his covenant H1285 , and repented H5162 according to the multitude H7230 of his mercies H2617 .
|
|
46. Winning for them compassion from all who held them captive.
|
46. He made H5414 them also to be pitied H7356 of H6440 all H3605 those that carried them captives H7617 .
|
|
47. Save us, LORD, our God; gather us from among the nations That we may give thanks to your holy name and glory in praising you.
|
47. Save H3467 us , O LORD H3068 our God H430 , and gather H6908 us from among H4480 the heathen H1471 , to give thanks H3034 unto thy holy H6944 name H8034 , and to triumph H7623 in thy praise H8416 .
|
|
48. Blessed be the LORD, the God of Israel, from everlasting to everlasting! Let all the people say, Amen! Hallelujah!
|
48. Blessed H1288 be the LORD H3068 God H430 of Israel H3478 from H4480 everlasting H5769 to H5704 everlasting H5769 : and let all H3605 the people H5971 say H559 , Amen H543 . Praise H1984 ye the LORD H3050 .
