Salmos 106— comparação

1Louvem ao SENHOR!

2Quem pode proclamar os feitos poderosos do SENHOR,

3Bem-aventurados os que guardam a justiça.

4Lembra-te de mim, SENHOR, com o favor que mostras ao teu povo.

5para que eu veja a prosperidade dos teus escolhidos,

6Pecamos com os nossos pais.

7Nossos pais não entenderam as tuas maravilhas no Egito.

8Contudo, ele os salvou por amor do seu nome,

9Ele também repreendeu o Mar Vermelho, e este secou;

10Ele os salvou da mão daquele que os odiava,

11As águas cobriram os seus adversários.

12Então creram nas suas palavras.

13Cedo, porém, se esqueceram das suas obras.

14mas cederam à cobiça no deserto,

15Ele lhes deu o que pediram,

16Também tiveram inveja de Moisés no acampamento,

17A terra se abriu e engoliu Datã,

18Um fogo se acendeu em seu grupo.

19Fizeram um bezerro em Horebe,

20Assim trocaram a sua glória

21Esqueceram-se de Deus, o seu Salvador,

22obras maravilhosas na terra de Cam,

23Por isso ele disse que os destruiria,

24Sim, eles desprezaram a terra aprazível.

25mas murmuraram em suas tendas,

26Por isso ele lhes jurou

27que abateria a sua descendência entre as nações,

28Eles também se juntaram a Baal-Peor,

29Assim o provocaram à ira com as suas ações.

30Então Fineias se levantou e executou o juízo,

31Isso lhe foi creditado como justiça,

32Eles também o iraram nas águas de Meribá,

33porque foram rebeldes contra o seu espírito,

34Eles não destruíram os povos,

35mas se misturaram com as nações,

36Serviram aos seus ídolos,

37Sim, sacrificaram seus filhos e suas filhas aos demônios.

38Derramaram sangue inocente,

39Assim se contaminaram com as suas obras,

40Por isso a ira do SENHOR se acendeu contra o seu povo.

41Ele os entregou nas mãos das nações.

42Os seus inimigos também os oprimiram.

43Ele os resgatou muitas vezes,

44Contudo, ele atentou para a angústia deles,

45Ele se lembrou da sua aliança com eles,

46Fez também com que fossem alvo de misericórdia

47Salva-nos, SENHOR, nosso Deus,

48Bendito seja o SENHOR, o Deus de Israel,

1Praise Yahweh! Give thanks to Yahweh, for he is good, for his loving kindness endures forever.

2Who can utter the mighty acts of Yahweh, or fully declare all his praise?

3Blessed are those who keep justice. Blessed is one who does what is right at all times.

4Remember me, Yahweh, with the favor that you show to your people. Visit me with your salvation,

5that I may see the prosperity of your chosen, that I may rejoice in the gladness of your nation, that I may glory with your inheritance.

6We have sinned with our fathers. We have committed iniquity. We have done wickedly.

7Our fathers didn’t understand your wonders in Egypt. They didn’t remember the multitude of your loving kindnesses, but were rebellious at the sea, even at the Red Sea.

8Nevertheless he saved them for his name’s sake, that he might make his mighty power known.

9He rebuked the Red Sea also, and it was dried up; so he led them through the depths, as through a desert.

10He saved them from the hand of him who hated them, and redeemed them from the hand of the enemy.

11The waters covered their adversaries. There was not one of them left.

12Then they believed his words. They sang his praise.

13They soon forgot his works. They didn’t wait for his counsel,

14but gave in to craving in the desert, and tested God in the wasteland.

15He gave them their request, but sent leanness into their soul.

16They envied Moses also in the camp, and Aaron, Yahweh’s saint.

17The earth opened and swallowed up Dathan, and covered the company of Abiram.

18A fire was kindled in their company. The flame burned up the wicked.

19They made a calf in Horeb, and worshiped a molten image.

20Thus they exchanged their glory for an image of a bull that eats grass.

21They forgot God, their Savior, who had done great things in Egypt,

22wondrous works in the land of Ham, and awesome things by the Red Sea.

23Therefore he said that he would destroy them, had Moses, his chosen, not stood before him in the breach, to turn away his wrath, so that he wouldn’t destroy them.

24Yes, they despised the pleasant land. They didn’t believe his word,

25but murmured in their tents, and didn’t listen to Yahweh’s voice.

26Therefore he swore to them that he would overthrow them in the wilderness,

27that he would overthrow their offspring among the nations, and scatter them in the lands.

28They joined themselves also to Baal Peor, and ate the sacrifices of the dead.

29Thus they provoked him to anger with their deeds. The plague broke in on them.

30Then Phinehas stood up and executed judgment, so the plague was stopped.

31That was credited to him for righteousness, for all generations to come.

32They angered him also at the waters of Meribah, so that Moses was troubled for their sakes;

33because they were rebellious against his spirit, he spoke rashly with his lips.

34They didn’t destroy the peoples, as Yahweh commanded them,

35but mixed themselves with the nations, and learned their works.

36They served their idols, which became a snare to them.

37Yes, they sacrificed their sons and their daughters to demons.

38They shed innocent blood, even the blood of their sons and of their daughters, whom they sacrificed to the idols of Canaan. The land was polluted with blood.

39Thus they were defiled with their works, and prostituted themselves in their deeds.

40Therefore Yahweh burned with anger against his people. He abhorred his inheritance.

41He gave them into the hand of the nations. Those who hated them ruled over them.

42Their enemies also oppressed them. They were brought into subjection under their hand.

43He rescued them many times, but they were rebellious in their counsel, and were brought low in their iniquity.

44Nevertheless he regarded their distress, when he heard their cry.

45He remembered for them his covenant, and repented according to the multitude of his loving kindnesses.

46He made them also to be pitied by all those who carried them captive.

47Save us, Yahweh, our God, gather us from among the nations, to give thanks to your holy name, to triumph in your praise!

48Blessed be Yahweh, the God of Israel, from everlasting even to everlasting! Let all the people say, “Amen.” Praise Yah!
