106 katapi NEW STUDY BIBLE Passage Biblia Hebraica

106 1Praise Yahweh!
O give thanks to Yahweh, for he is good;
for his steadfast love endures for ever!
The Lord's Goodness to His People. Psalm 106(v105)הַלְלוּיָהּ הֹודוּ לַיהוָה כִּי־טֹוב כִּי לְעֹולָם חַסְדֹּו׃
2Who can utter the mighty doings of Yahweh,
or show forth all his praise?
 מִי יְמַלֵּל גְּבוּרֹות יְהוָה יַשְׁמִיעַ כָּל־תְּהִלָּתֹו׃
3Blessed are they who observe justice,
who do righteousness at all times!
 אַשְׁרֵי שֹׁמְרֵי מִשְׁפָּט עֹשֵׂה צְדָקָה בְכָל־עֵת׃
4Remember me, O Yahweh, when you show favour to your people;
help me when you deliver them;
 זָכְרֵנִי יְהוָה בִּרְצֹון עַמֶּךָ פָּקְדֵנִי בִּישׁוּעָתֶךָ׃
5that I may see the prosperity of your chosen ones,
that I may rejoice in the gladness of your nation,
that I may glory with your heritage.
 לִרְאֹות בְּטֹובַת בְּחִירֶיךָ לִשְׂמֹחַ בְּשִׂמְחַת גֹּויֶךָ לְהִתְהַלֵּל עִם־נַחֲלָתֶךָ׃
6Both we and our fathers have sinned;
we have committed iniquity,
we have done wickedly.
 חָטָאנוּ עִם־אֲבֹותֵינוּ הֶעֱוִינוּ הִרְשָׁעְנוּ׃
7Our fathers, when they were in Egypt, did not consider your wonderful works; they did not remember the abundance of your steadfast love,
but rebelled against the Most High at the Red Sea.
 אֲבֹותֵינוּ בְמִצְרַיִם לֹא־הִשְׂכִּילוּ נִפְלְאֹותֶיךָ לֹא זָכְרוּ אֶת־רֹב חֲסָדֶיךָ וַיַּמְרוּ עַל־יָם בְּיַם־סוּף׃
8Yet he saved them for his name's sake,
that he might make known his mighty power.
 וַיֹּושִׁיעֵם לְמַעַן שְׁמֹו לְהֹודִיעַ אֶת־גְּבוּרָתֹו׃
9He rebuked the Red Sea, and it became dry;
and he led them through the deep as through a desert.
 וַיִּגְעַר בְּיַם־סוּף וַיֶּחֱרָב וַיֹּולִיכֵם בַּתְּהֹמֹות כַּמִּדְבָּר׃
10So he saved them from the hand of the foe,
and delivered them from the power of the enemy.
 וַיֹּושִׁיעֵם מִיַּד שֹׂונֵא וַיִּגְאָלֵם מִיַּד אֹויֵב׃
11And the waters covered their adversaries;
not one of them was left.
 וַיְכַסּוּ־מַיִם צָרֵיהֶם אֶחָד מֵהֶם לֹא נֹותָר׃
12Then they believed his words;
they sang his praise.
 וַיַּאֲמִינוּ בִדְבָרָיו יָשִׁירוּ תְּהִלָּתֹו׃
13But they soon forgot his works;
they did not wait for his counsel.
 מִהֲרוּ שָׁכְחוּ מַעֲשָׂיו לֹא־חִכּוּ לַעֲצָתֹו׃
14But they had a wanton craving in the wilderness,
and put God to the test in the desert;
 וַיִּתְאַוּוּ תַאֲוָה בַּמִּדְבָּר וַיְנַסּוּ־אֵל בִּישִׁימֹון׃
15he gave them what they asked,
but sent a wasting disease among them.
 וַיִּתֵּן לָהֶם שֶׁאֱלָתָם וַיְשַׁלַּח רָזֹון בְּנַפְשָׁם׃
16When men in the camp were jealous of Moses and Aaron,
the holy one of Yahweh,
 וַיְקַנְאוּ לְמֹשֶׁה בַּמַּחֲנֶה לְאַהֲרֹן קְדֹושׁ יְהוָה׃
17the earth opened and swallowed up Dathan,
and covered the company of Abiram.
 תִּפְתַּח־אֶרֶץ וַתִּבְלַע דָּתָן וַתְּכַס עַל־עֲדַת אֲבִירָם׃
18Fire also broke out in their company;
the flame burned up the wicked.
 וַתִּבְעַר־אֵשׁ בַּעֲדָתָם לֶהָבָה תְּלַהֵט רְשָׁעִים׃
19They made a calf in Horeb and worshipped a molten image.
 יַעֲשׂוּ־עֵגֶל בְּחֹרֵב וַיִּשְׁתַּחֲווּ לְמַסֵּכָה׃
20They exchanged the glory of God for the image of an ox that eats grass.
 וַיָּמִירוּ אֶת־כְּבֹודָם בְּתַבְנִית שֹׁור אֹכֵל עֵשֶׂב׃
21They forgot God, their Saviour,
who had done great things in Egypt,
 שָׁכְחוּ אֵל מֹושִׁיעָם עֹשֶׂה גְדֹלֹות בְּמִצְרָיִם׃
22wondrous works in the land of Ham,
and terrible things by the Red Sea.
 נִפְלָאֹות בְּאֶרֶץ חָם נֹורָאֹות עַל־יַם־סוּף׃
23Therefore he said he would destroy them -
had not Moses, his chosen one, stood in the breach before him,
to turn away his wrath from destroying them.
 וַיֹּאמֶר לְהַשְׁמִידָם לוּלֵי מֹשֶׁה בְחִירֹו עָמַד בַּפֶּרֶץ לְפָנָיו לְהָשִׁיב חֲמָתֹו מֵהַשְׁחִית׃
24Then they despised the pleasant land,
having no faith in his promise.
 וַיִּמְאֲסוּ בְּאֶרֶץ חֶמְדָּה לֹא־הֶאֱמִינוּ לִדְבָרֹו׃
25They murmured in their tents,
and did not obey the voice of Yahweh.
 וַיֵּרָגְנוּ בְאָהֳלֵיהֶם לֹא שָׁמְעוּ בְּקֹול יְהוָה׃
26Therefore he raised his hand and swore to them
that he would make them fall in the wilderness,
 וַיִּשָּׂא יָדֹו לָהֶם לְהַפִּיל אֹותָם בַּמִּדְבָּר׃
27and would disperse their descendants among the nations,
scattering them over the lands.
 וּלְהַפִּיל זַרְעָם בַּגֹּויִם וּלְזָרֹותָם בָּאֲרָצֹות׃
28Then they attached themselves to the Baal of Peor,
and ate sacrifices offered to the dead;
 וַיִּצָּמְדוּ לְבַעַל פְּעֹור וַיֹּאכְלוּ זִבְחֵי מֵתִים׃
29they provoked Yahweh to anger with their doings,
and a plague broke out among them.
 וַיַּכְעִיסוּ בְּמַעַלְלֵיהֶם וַתִּפְרָץ־בָּם מַגֵּפָה׃
30Then Phinehas stood up and interposed,
and the plague was stayed.
 וַיַּעֲמֹד פִּינְחָס וַיְפַלֵּל וַתֵּעָצַר הַמַּגֵּפָה׃
31And that has been reckoned to him as righteousness
from generation to generation for ever.
 וַתֵּחָשֶׁב לֹו לִצְדָקָה לְדֹר וָדֹר עַד־עֹולָם׃
32They angered him at the waters of Meribah,
and it went ill with Moses on their account;
 וַיַּקְצִיפוּ עַל־מֵי מְרִיבָה וַיֵּרַע לְמֹשֶׁה בַּעֲבוּרָם׃
33for they made his spirit bitter,
and he spoke words that were rash.
 כִּי־הִמְרוּ אֶת־רוּחֹו וַיְבַטֵּא בִּשְׂפָתָיו׃
34They did not destroy the peoples,
as Yahweh commanded them,
 לֹא־הִשְׁמִידוּ אֶת־הָעַמִּים אֲשֶׁר אָמַר יְהוָה לָהֶם׃
35but they mingled with the nations
and learned to do as they did.
 וַיִּתְעָרְבוּ בַגֹּויִם וַיִּלְמְדוּ מַעֲשֵׂיהֶם׃
36They served their idols,
which became a snare to them.
 וַיַּעַבְדוּ אֶת־עֲצַבֵּיהֶם וַיִּהְיוּ לָהֶם לְמֹוקֵשׁ׃
37They sacrificed their sons
and their daughters to the demons;
 וַיִּזְבְּחוּ אֶת־בְּנֵיהֶם וְאֶת־בְּנֹותֵיהֶם לַשֵּׁדִים׃
38they poured out innocent blood,
the blood of their sons and daughters,
whom they sacrificed to the idols of Canaan;
and the land was polluted with blood.
 וַיִּשְׁפְּכוּ דָם נָקִי דַּם־בְּנֵיהֶם וּבְנֹותֵיהֶם אֲשֶׁר זִבְּחוּ לַעֲצַבֵּי כְנָעַן וַתֶּחֱנַף הָאָרֶץ בַּדָּמִים׃
39Thus they became unclean by their acts,
and played the harlot in their doings.
 וַיִּטְמְאוּ בְמַעֲשֵׂיהֶם וַיִּזְנוּ בְּמַעַלְלֵיהֶם׃
40Then the anger of Yahweh was kindled against his people,
and he abhorred his heritage;
 וַיִּחַר־אַף יְהוָה בְּעַמֹּו וַיְתָעֵב אֶת־נַחֲלָתֹו׃
41he gave them into the hand of the nations,
so that those who hated them ruled over them.
 וַיִּתְּנֵם בְּיַד־גֹּויִם וַיִּמְשְׁלוּ בָהֶם שֹׂנְאֵיהֶם׃
42Their enemies oppressed them,
and they were brought into subjection under their power.
 וַיִּלְחָצוּם אֹויְבֵיהֶם וַיִּכָּנְעוּ תַּחַת יָדָם׃
43Many times he delivered them,
but they were rebellious in their purposes,
and were brought low through their iniquity.
 פְּעָמִים רַבֹּות יַצִּילֵם וְהֵמָּה יַמְרוּ בַעֲצָתָם וַיָּמֹכּוּ בַּעֲוֹנָם׃
44Nevertheless he regarded their distress,
when he heard their cry.
 וַיַּרְא בַּצַּר לָהֶם בְּשָׁמְעֹו אֶת־רִנָּתָם׃
45He remembered for their sake his covenant,
and relented according to the abundance of his steadfast love.
 וַיִּזְכֹּר לָהֶם בְּרִיתֹו וַיִּנָּחֵם כְּרֹב כ= חַסְדֹּו ק= חֲסָדָיו׃
46He caused them to be pitied
by all those who held them captive.
 וַיִּתֵּן אֹותָם לְרַחֲמִים לִפְנֵי כָּל־שֹׁובֵיהֶם׃
47Save us, O Yahweh our God, and gather us from among the nations,
that we may give thanks to your holy name and glory in your praise.
 הֹושִׁיעֵנוּ יְהוָה אֱלֹהֵינוּ וְקַבְּצֵנוּ מִן־הַגֹּויִם לְהֹדֹות לְשֵׁם קָדְשֶׁךָ לְהִשְׁתַּבֵּחַ בִּתְהִלָּתֶךָ׃
48Blessed be Yahweh, the God of Israel,
from everlasting to everlasting!
And let all the people say, "Amen!"
Praise Yahweh!
 בָּרוּךְ־יְהוָה אֱלֹהֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל מִן־הָעֹולָם וְעַד הָעֹולָם וְאָמַר כָּל־הָעָם אָמֵן הַלְלוּ־יָהּ׃

Notes: This page displays passages from the katapi NEW STUDY BIBLE.
The katapi NEW STUDY BIBLE is a very light revision of the RSV. The changes are: (1) In places where 'the LORD', 'O LORD' occurs in the RSV, (it represents the tetragrammaton - YHWH - which is in the hebrew text), I have used the name 'Yahweh'.
(2) I have removed the quotation marks and hyphens that were used in so many names in the RSV as an aid to correct pronunciation. This now brings it in line with all other English versions, and makes any word-search more accurate.
(3) I have changed all (I hope!) of the RSV archaic language sections to modern.

The katapi New Study Bible reference section displays links to parallel passages, and to direct quotations by New Testament authors to Old Testament passages. Quotations of OT passages by NT authors can in most cases be viewed within their context of the OT passage as a whole, with the quoted text displayed, against a subdued background.
