Psalm 106:39–48

39 They defiled themselves by their actions

and prostituted themselves by their deeds. l

40 Therefore the Lord’s anger burned against His people,

and He abhorred His own inheritance. m

41 He handed them over to the nations;

those who hated them ruled them. n

42 Their enemies oppressed them,

and they were subdued under their power. o

43 He rescued them many times,

but they continued to rebel deliberately

and were beaten down by their sin. p

44 When He heard their cry,

He took note of their distress, q

45 remembered His covenant with them,

and relented according to the riches

of His faithful love. r

46 He caused them to be pitied

before all their captors. s

47 Save us, * Yahweh our God,

and gather us from the nations,

so that we may give thanks to Your holy name

and rejoice in Your praise. t

48 May Yahweh, the God of Israel, be praised

from everlasting to everlasting. u

Let all the people say, “* Amen!”

Hallelujah! v
