1Praise ye Jehovah.
2Who can utter the mighty acts of Jehovah,
3Blessed are they that keep justice,
4Remember me, O Jehovah, with the favor that thou bearest unto thy people;
5That I may see the prosperity of thy chosen,
6We have sinned with our fathers,
7Our fathers understood not thy wonders in Egypt;
8Nevertheless he saved them for his name’s sake,
9He rebuked the Red Sea also, and it was dried up:
10And he saved them from the hand of him that hated them,
11And the waters covered their adversaries;
12Then believed they his words;
13They soon forgat his works;
14But lusted exceedingly in the wilderness,
15And he gave them their request,
16They envied Moses also in the camp,
17The earth opened and swallowed up Dathan,
18And a fire was kindled in their company;
19They made a calf in Horeb,
20Thus they changed their glory
21They forgat God their Saviour,
22Wondrous works in the land of Ham,
23Therefore he said that he would destroy them,
24Yea, they despised the pleasant land,
25But murmured in their tents,
26Therefore he sware unto them,
27And that he would overthrow their seed among the nations,
28They joined themselves also unto Baal-peor,
29Thus they provoked him to anger with their doings;
30Then stood up Phinehas, and executed judgment;
31And that was reckoned unto him for righteousness,
32They angered him also at the waters of Meribah,
33Because they were rebellious against his spirit,
34They did not destroy the peoples,
35But mingled themselves with the nations,
36And served their idols,
37Yea, they sacrificed their sons and their daughters unto demons,
38And shed innocent blood,
39Thus were they defiled with their works,
40Therefore was the wrath of Jehovah kindled against his people,
41And he gave them into the hand of the nations;
42Their enemies also oppressed them,
43Many times did he deliver them;
44Nevertheless he regarded their distress,
45And he remembered for them his covenant,
46He made them also to be pitied
47Save us, O Jehovah our God,
48Blessed be Jehovah, the God of Israel,
