1Give glory to the Lord, for he is good: for his mercy endureth for ever.

1Give ye thanks unto Jehovah, call upon his name; make known his acts among the peoples.

2Who shall declare the powers of the Lord? who shall set forth all his praises?

2 Sing unto him, sing psalms unto him; meditate upon all his wondrous works.

3Blessed are they that keep judgment, and do justice at all times.

3 Glory ye in his holy name: let the heart of them rejoice that seek Jehovah.

4Remember us, O Lord, in the favour of thy people: visit us with thy salvation.

4 Seek Jehovah and his strength, seek his face continually;

5That 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.

5 Remember his wondrous works which he hath done, his miracles and the judgments of his mouth:

6We have sinned with our fathers: we have acted unjustly, we have wrought iniquity.

6 Ye seed of Abraham his servant, ye sons of Jacob, his chosen ones.

7Our 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.

7 He, Jehovah, is ourGod; his judgments are in all the earth.

8And he saved them for his own name's sake: that he might make his power known.

8 He is ever mindful of his covenant, — the word which he commanded to a thousand generations, —

9And he rebuked the Red Sea and it was dried up: and he led them through the depths, as in a wilderness.

9 Which he made with Abraham, and of his oath unto Isaac;

10And he saved them from the hand of them that hated them: and he redeemed them from the hand of the enemy.

10 And he confirmed it unto Jacob for a statute, unto Israel for an everlasting covenant,

11And the water covered them that afflicted them: there was not one of them left.

11 Saying, Unto thee will I give the land of Canaan, the lot of your inheritance;

12And they believed his words: and they sang his praises.

12 When they were a few men in number, of small account, and strangers in it.

13They had quickly done, they forgot his works: and they waited not for his counsel.

13 And they went from nation to nation, from one kingdom to another people.

14And they coveted their desire in the desert: and they tempted God in the place without water.

14 He suffered no man to oppress them, and reproved kings for their sakes,

15And he gave them their request: and sent fulness into their souls.

15 [Saying,] Touch not mine anointed ones, and do my prophets no harm.

16And they provoked Moses in the camp, Aaron the holy one of the Lord.

16 And he called for a famine upon the land; he broke the whole staff of bread.

17The earth opened and swallowed up Dathan: and covered the congregation of Abiron.

17 He sent a man before them: Joseph was sold for a bondman.

18And a fire was kindled in their congregation: the flame burned the wicked.

18 They afflicted his feet with fetters; his soul came into irons;

19They made also a calf in Horeb: and they adored the graven thing.

19 Until the time when what he said came about: the word of Jehovah tried him.

20And they changed their glory into the likeness of a calf that eateth grass.

20 The king sent and loosed him — the ruler of peoples — and let him go free.

21They forgot God, who saved them, who had done great things in Egypt,

21 He made him lord of his house, and ruler over all his possessions:

22Wondrous works in the land of Cham: terrible things in the Red Sea.

22 To bind his princes at his pleasure, and teach his elders wisdom.

23And 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.

23 And Israel came into Egypt, and Jacob sojourned in the land of Ham.

24And they set at nought the desirable land. They believed not his word,

24 And he made his people exceeding fruitful, and made them mightier than their oppressors.

25And they murmured in their tents: they hearkened not to the voice of the Lord.

25 He turned their heart to hate his people, to deal subtilly with his servants.

26And he lifted up his hand over them: to overthrow them in the desert;

26 He sent Moses his servant, [and] Aaron whom he had chosen:

27And to cast down their seed among the nations, and to scatter them in the countries.

27 They set his signs among them, and miracles in the land of Ham.

28They also were initiated to Beelphegor: and ate the sacrifices of the dead.

28 He sent darkness, and made it dark; and they rebelled not against his word.

29And they provoked him with their inventions: and destruction was multiplied among them.

29 He turned their waters into blood, and caused their fish to die.

30Then Phinees stood up, and pacified him: and the slaughter ceased.

30 Their land swarmed with frogs, — in the chambers of their kings.

31And it was reputed to him unto justice, to generation and generation for evermore.

31 He spoke, and there came dog-flies, [and] gnats in all their borders.

32They provoked him also at the waters of contradiction: and Moses was afflicted for their sakes:

32 He gave them hail for rain, [and] flaming fire in their land;

33Because they exasperated his spirit. And he distinguished with his lips.

33 And he smote their vines and their fig-trees, and broke the trees of their borders.

34They did not destroy the nations of which the Lord spoke unto them.

34 He spoke, and the locust came, and the cankerworm, even without number;

35And they were mingled among the heathens, and learned their works:

35 And they devoured every herb in their land, and ate up the fruit of their ground.

36And served their idols, and it became a stumblingblock to them.

36 And he smote every firstborn in their land, the firstfruits of all their vigour.

37And they sacrificed their sons, and their daughters to devils.

37 And he brought them forth with silver and gold; and there was not one feeble among their tribes.

38And 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,

38 Egypt rejoiced at their departure; for the fear of them had fallen upon them.

39And was defiled with their works: and they went aside after their own inventions.

39 He spread a cloud for a covering, and fire to give light in the night.

40And the Lord was exceedingly angry with his people: and he abhorred his inheritance.

40 They asked, and he brought quails, and satisfied them with the bread of heaven.

41And he delivered them into the hands of the nations: and they that hated them had dominion over them.

41 He opened the rock, and waters gushed forth; they ran in the dry places [like] a river.

42And their enemies afflicted them: and they were humbled under their hands:

42 For he remembered his holy word, [and] Abraham his servant;

43Many times did he deliver them. But they provoked him with their counsel: and they were brought low by their iniquities.

43 And he brought forth his people with gladness, his chosen with rejoicing;

44And he saw when they were in tribulation: and he heard their prayer.

44 And he gave them the lands of the nations, and they took possession of the labour of the peoples:

45And he was mindful of his covenant: and repented according to the multitude of his mercies.

45 That they might keep his statutes, and observe his laws. Hallelujah!

46And he gave them unto mercies, in the sight of all those that had made them captives.

47Save us, O Lord, our God: and gather us from among the nations: That we may give thanks to thy holy name, and may glory in thy praise.

48Blessed be the Lord the God of Israel, from everlasting to everlasting: and let all the people say: So be it, so be it.
