Psalm 106 (WEBP)
[1] Praise Yahweh! Give thanks to Yahweh, for he is good, for his loving kindness endures forever.
[2] Who can utter the mighty acts of Yahweh, 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, Yahweh, 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, Yahweh’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 Yahweh’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 Yahweh 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 Yahweh 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, Yahweh, our God, gather us from among the nations, to give thanks to your holy name, to triumph in your praise!
[48] Blessed be Yahweh, the God of Israel, from everlasting even to everlasting! Let all the people say, “Amen.” Praise Yah!

Psalm 106 (KJVS)
[1] Praise H1984 (8761) ye the LORD H3050. O give thanks H3034 (8685) unto the LORD H3068; for [he is] good H2896: for his mercy H2617 [endureth] for ever H5769.
[2] Who can utter H4448 (8762) the mighty acts H1369 of the LORD H3068? [who] can shew forth H8085 (8686) all his praise H8416?
[3] Blessed H835 [are] they that keep H8104 (8802) judgment H4941, [and] he that doeth H6213 (8802) righteousness H6666 at all times H6256.
[4] Remember H2142 (8798) me, O LORD H3068, with the favour H7522 [that thou bearest unto] thy people H5971: O visit H6485 (8798) me with thy salvation H3444;
[5] That I may see H7200 (8800) the good H2896 of thy chosen H972, that I may rejoice H8055 (8800) in the gladness H8057 of thy nation H1471, that I may glory H1984 (8692) with thine inheritance H5159.
[6] We have sinned H2398 (8804) with our fathers H1, we have committed iniquity H5753 (8689), we have done wickedly H7561 (8689).
[7] Our fathers H1 understood H7919 (8689) not thy wonders H6381 (8737) in Egypt H4714; they remembered H2142 (8804) not the multitude H7230 of thy mercies H2617; but provoked H4784 (8686) [him] at the sea H3220, [even] at the Red H5488 sea H3220.
[8] Nevertheless he saved H3467 (8686) them for his name’s H8034 sake, that he might make his mighty power H1369 to be known H3045 (8687).
[9] He rebuked H1605 (8799) the Red H5488 sea H3220 also, and it was dried up H2717 (8799): so he led H3212 (8686) them through the depths H8415, as through the wilderness H4057.
[10] And he saved H3467 (8686) them from the hand H3027 of him that hated H8130 (8802) [them], and redeemed H1350 (8799) them from the hand H3027 of the enemy H341 (8802).
[11] And the waters H4325 covered H3680 (8762) their enemies H6862: there was not one H259 of them left H3498 (8738).
[12] Then believed H539 (8686) they his words H1697; they sang H7891 (8799) his praise H8416.
[13] They soon H4116 (8765) forgat H7911 (8804) his works H4639; they waited H2442 (8765) not for his counsel H6098:
[14] But lusted H183 (8691) exceedingly H8378 in the wilderness H4057, and tempted H5254 (8762) God H410 in the desert H3452.
[15] And he gave H5414 (8799) them their request H7596; but sent H7971 (8762) leanness H7332 into their soul H5315.
[16] They envied H7065 (8762) Moses H4872 also in the camp H4264, [and] Aaron H175 the saint H6918 of the LORD H3068.
[17] The earth H776 opened H6605 (8799) and swallowed up H1104 (8799) Dathan H1885, and covered H3680 (8762) the company H5712 of Abiram H48.
[18] And a fire H784 was kindled H1197 (8799) in their company H5712; the flame H3852 burned up H3857 (8762) the wicked H7563.
[19] They made H6213 (8799) a calf H5695 in Horeb H2722, and worshipped H7812 (8691) the molten image H4541.
[20] Thus they changed H4171 (8686) their glory H3519 into the similitude H8403 of an ox H7794 that eateth H398 (8802) grass H6212.
[21] They forgat H7911 (8804) God H410 their saviour H3467 (8688), which had done H6213 (8802) great things H1419 in Egypt H4714;
[22] Wondrous works H6381 (8737) in the land H776 of Ham H2526, [and] terrible things H3372 (8737) by the Red H5488 sea H3220.
[23] Therefore he said H559 (8799) that he would destroy H8045 (8687) them, had not H3884 Moses H4872 his chosen H972 stood H5975 (8804) before H6440 him in the breach H6556, to turn away H7725 (8687) his wrath H2534, lest he should destroy H7843 (8687) [them].
[24] Yea, they despised H3988 (8799) the pleasant H2532 land H776, they believed H539 (8689) not his word H1697:
[25] But murmured H7279 (8735) in their tents H168, [and] hearkened H8085 (8804) not unto the voice H6963 of the LORD H3068.
[26] Therefore he lifted up H5375 (8799) his hand H3027 against them, to overthrow H5307 (8687) them in the wilderness H4057:
[27] To overthrow H5307 (8687) their seed H2233 also among the nations H1471, and to scatter H2219 (8763) them in the lands H776.
[28] They joined H6775 (8735) themselves also unto Baalpeor H1187, and ate H398 (8799) the sacrifices H2077 of the dead H4191 (8801).
[29] Thus they provoked [him] to anger H3707 (8686) with their inventions H4611: and the plague H4046 brake in H6555 (8799) upon them.
[30] Then stood up H5975 (8799) Phinehas H6372, and executed judgment H6419 (8762): and [so] the plague H4046 was stayed H6113 (8735).
[31] And that was counted H2803 (8735) unto him for righteousness H6666 unto all H1755 generations H1755 for H5704 evermore H5769.
[32] They angered H7107 (8686) [him] also at the waters H4325 of strife H4808 (8677) H4809, so that it went ill H3415 (8799) with Moses H4872 for their sakes:
[33] Because they provoked H4784 (8689) his spirit H7307, so that he spake unadvisedly H981 (8762) with his lips H8193.
[34] They did not destroy H8045 (8689) the nations H5971, concerning whom the LORD H3068 commanded H559 (8804) them:
[35] But were mingled H6148 (8691) among the heathen H1471, and learned H3925 (8799) their works H4639.
[36] And they served H5647 (8799) their idols H6091: which were a snare H4170 unto them.
[37] Yea, they sacrificed H2076 (8799) their sons H1121 and their daughters H1323 unto devils H7700,
[38] And shed H8210 (8799) innocent H5355 blood H1818, [even] the blood H1818 of their sons H1121 and of their daughters H1323, whom they sacrificed H2076 (8765) unto the idols H6091 of Canaan H3667: and the land H776 was polluted H2610 (8799) with blood H1818.
[39] Thus were they defiled H2930 (8799) with their own works H4639, and went a whoring H2181 (8799) with their own inventions H4611.
[40] Therefore was the wrath H639 of the LORD H3068 kindled H2734 (8799) against his people H5971, insomuch that he abhorred H8581 (8762) his own inheritance H5159.
[41] And he gave H5414 (8799) them into the hand H3027 of the heathen H1471; and they that hated H8130 (8802) them ruled H4910 (8799) over them.
[42] Their enemies H341 (8802) also oppressed H3905 (8799) them, and they were brought into subjection H3665 (8735) under their hand H3027.
[43] Many H7227 times H6471 did he deliver H5337 (8686) them; but they provoked H4784 (8686) [him] with their counsel H6098, and were brought low H4355 (8799) for their iniquity H5771.
[44] Nevertheless he regarded H7200 (8799) their affliction H6862, when he heard H8085 (8800) their cry H7440:
[45] And he remembered H2142 (8799) for them his covenant H1285, and repented H5162 (8735) according to the multitude H7230 of his mercies H2617.
[46] He made H5414 (8799) them also to be pitied H7356 of H6440 all those that carried them captives H7617 (8802).
[47] Save H3467 (8685) us, O LORD H3068 our God H430, and gather H6908 (8761) us from among the heathen H1471, to give thanks H3034 (8687) unto thy holy H6944 name H8034, [and] to triumph H7623 (8692) in thy praise H8416.
[48] Blessed H1288 (8803) [be] the LORD H3068 God H430 of Israel H3478 from everlasting H5769 to everlasting H5769: and let all the people H5971 say H559 (8804), Amen H543. Praise H1984 (8761) ye the LORD H3050.
Young’s Literal Translation
Psalm 106 (YLT)
[1] Praise ye Jah, give thanks to Jehovah, For good, for to the age, is His kindness.
[2] Who doth utter the mighty acts of Jehovah? Soundeth all His praise?
[3] O the happiness of those keeping judgment, Doing righteousness at all times.
[4] Remember me, O Jehovah, With the favour of Thy people, Look after me in Thy salvation.
[5] To look on the good of Thy chosen ones, To rejoice in the joy of Thy nation, To boast myself with Thine inheritance.
[6] We have sinned with our fathers, We have done perversely, we have done wickedly.
[7] Our fathers in Egypt, Have not considered wisely Thy wonders, They have not remembered The abundance of Thy kind acts, And provoke by the sea, at the sea of Suph.
[8] And He saveth them for His name’s sake, To make known His might,
[9] And rebuketh the sea of Suph, and it is dried up, And causeth them to go Through depths as a wilderness.
[10] And He saveth them from the hand Of him who is hating, And redeemeth them from the hand of the enemy.
[11] And waters cover their adversaries, One of them hath not been left.
[12] And they believe in His words, they sing His praise,
[13] They have hasted-forgotten His works, They have not waited for His counsel.
[14] And they lust greatly in a wilderness, And try God in a desert.
[15] And He giveth to them their request, And sendeth leanness into their soul.
[16] And they are envious of Moses in the camp, Of Aaron, Jehovah’s holy one.
[17] Earth openeth, and swalloweth up Dathan, And covereth over the company of Abiram.
[18] And fire burneth among their company, A flame setteth on fire the wicked.
[19] They make a calf in Horeb, And bow themselves to a molten image,
[20] And change their Honour Into the form of an ox eating herbs.
[21] They have forgotten God their saviour, The doer of great things in Egypt,
[22] Of wonderful things in the land of Ham, Of fearful things by the sea of Suph.
[23] And He saith to destroy them, Unless Moses, His chosen one, Had stood in the breach before Him, To turn back His wrath from destroying.
[24] And they kick against the desirable land, They have not given credence to His word.
[25] And they murmur in their tents, They have not hearkened to the voice of Jehovah.
[26] And He lifteth up His hand to them, To cause them to fall in a wilderness,
[27] And to cause their seed to fall among nations, And to scatter them through lands.
[28] And they are coupled to Baal-Peor, And eat the sacrifices of the dead,
[29] And they provoke to anger by their actions, And a plague breaketh forth upon them,
[30] And Phinehas standeth, and executeth judgment And the plague is restrained,
[31] And it is reckoned to him to righteousness, To all generations-unto the age.
[32] And they cause wrath by the waters of Meribah, And it is evil to Moses for their sakes,
[33] For they have provoked his spirit, And he speaketh wrongfully with his lips.
[34] They have not destroyed the peoples, As Jehovah had said to them,
[35] And mix themselves among nations, and learn their works,
[36] And serve their idols, And they are to them for a snare.
[37] And they sacrifice their sons And their daughters to destroyers,
[38] And they shed innocent blood- Blood of their sons and of their daughters, Whom they have sacrificed to idols of Canaan, And the land is profaned with blood.
[39] And they are defiled with their works, And commit whoredom in their habitual doings.
[40] And the anger of Jehovah Is kindled against His people, And He doth abominate His inheritance.
[41] And giveth them into the hand of nations, And those hating them rule over them,
[42] And their enemies oppress them, And they are humbled under their hand.
[43] Many times He doth deliver them, And they rebel in their counsel, And they are brought low in their iniquity.
[44] And He looketh on their distress When He heareth their cry,
[45] And remembereth for them His covenant, And is comforted, According to the abundance of His kindness.
[46] And He appointeth them for mercies Before all their captors.
[47] Save us, O Jehovah our God, and gather us from the nations, To give thanks to Thy holy name, To glory in Thy praise.
[48] Blessed is Jehovah, God of Israel, From the age even unto the age. And all the people said, ‘Amen, praise Jah!’
