ASV

Praise ye Jehovah. Oh give thanks unto Jehovah; for he is good; For his lovingkindness [endureth] for ever.

ASV

Who can utter the mighty acts of Jehovah, Or show forth all his praise?

ASV

Blessed are they that keep justice, And he that doeth righteousness at all times.

ASV

Remember me, O Jehovah, with the favor that thou bearest unto thy people; Oh visit me with thy salvation,

ASV

That I may see the prosperity of thy chosen, That I may rejoice in the gladness of thy nation, That I may glory with thine inheritance.

ASV

We have sinned with our fathers, We have committed iniquity, we have done wickedly.

ASV

Our fathers understood not thy wonders in Egypt; They remembered not the multitude of thy lovingkindnesses, But were rebellious at the sea, even at the Red Sea.

ASV

Nevertheless he saved them for his name’s sake, That he might make his mighty power to be known.

ASV

He rebuked the Red Sea also, and it was dried up: So he led them through the depths, as through a wilderness.

ASV

And he saved them from the hand of him that hated them, And redeemed them from the hand of the enemy.

ASV

And the waters covered their adversaries; There was not one of them left.

ASV

Then believed they his words; They sang his praise.

ASV

They soon forgat his works; They waited not for his counsel,

ASV

But lusted exceedingly in the wilderness, And tempted God in the desert.

ASV

And he gave them their request, But sent leanness into their soul.

ASV

They envied Moses also in the camp, [And] Aaron the saint of Jehovah.

ASV

The earth opened and swallowed up Dathan, And covered the company of Abiram.

ASV

And a fire was kindled in their company; The flame burned up the wicked.

ASV

They made a calf in Horeb, And worshipped a molten image.

ASV

Thus they changed their glory For the likeness of an ox that eateth grass.

ASV

They forgat God their Saviour, Who had done great things in Egypt,

ASV

Wondrous works in the land of Ham, [And] terrible things by the Red Sea.

ASV

Therefore 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].

ASV

Yea, they despised the pleasant land, They believed not his word,

ASV

But murmured in their tents, And hearkened not unto the voice of Jehovah.

ASV

Therefore he sware unto them, That he would overthrow them in the wilderness,

ASV

And that he would overthrow their seed among the nations, And scatter them in the lands.

ASV

They joined themselves also unto Baal-peor, And ate the sacrifices of the dead.

ASV

Thus they provoked him to anger with their doings; And the plague brake in upon them.

ASV

Then stood up Phinehas, and executed judgment; And so the plague was stayed.

ASV

And that was reckoned unto him for righteousness, Unto all generations for evermore.

ASV

They angered him also at the waters of Meribah, So that it went ill with Moses for their sakes;

ASV

Because they were rebellious against his spirit, And he spake unadvisedly with his lips.

ASV

They did not destroy the peoples, As Jehovah commanded them,

ASV

But mingled themselves with the nations, And learned their works,

ASV

And served their idols, Which became a snare unto them.

ASV

Yea, they sacrificed their sons and their daughters unto demons,

ASV

And shed innocent blood, Even the blood of their sons and of their daughters, Whom they sacrificed unto the idols of Canaan; And the land was polluted with blood.

ASV

Thus were they defiled with their works, And played the harlot in their doings.

ASV

Therefore was the wrath of Jehovah kindled against his people, And he abhorred his inheritance.

ASV

And he gave them into the hand of the nations; And they that hated them ruled over them.

ASV

Their enemies also oppressed them, And they were brought into subjection under their hand.

ASV

Many times did he deliver them; But they were rebellious in their counsel, And were brought low in their iniquity.

ASV

Nevertheless he regarded their distress, When he heard their cry:

ASV

And he remembered for them his covenant, And repented according to the multitude of his lovingkindnesses.

ASV

He made them also to be pitied Of all those that carried them captive.

ASV

Save us, O Jehovah our God, And gather us from among the nations, To give thanks unto thy holy name, And to triumph in thy praise.

ASV

Blessed be Jehovah, the God of Israel, From everlasting even to everlasting. And let all the people say, Amen. Praise ye Jehovah.
