Psalms 106:2 - Forerunner Commentary

Psalms 106:2

1 Praise¹ the Lord!
^aOh, give thanks to the Lord, for He is good!
For His mercy endures forever.

2 Who can¹ utter the mighty acts of the Lord?
Who can declare all His praise?

3 Blessed are those who keep justice,
And¹ he who ^adoes righteousness at ^ball times!

4 ^aRemember me, O Lord, with the favor You have toward Your people.
Oh, visit me with Your salvation,

5 That I may see the benefit of Your chosen ones,
That I may rejoice in the gladness of Your nation,
That I may glory with¹ Your inheritance.

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

7 Our fathers in Egypt did not understand Your wonders;
They did not remember the multitude of Your mercies,
^aBut rebelled by the sea—the Red Sea.

8 Nevertheless He saved them for His name’s sake,
^aThat He might make His mighty power known.

9 ^aHe rebuked the Red Sea also, and it dried up;
So ^bHe led them through the depths,
As through the wilderness.

10 He ^asaved them from the hand of him who hated them,
And redeemed them from the hand of the enemy.

11 ^aThe waters covered their enemies;
There was not one of them left.

12 ^aThen they believed His words;
They sang His praise.

13 ^aThey soon forgot His works;
They did not wait for His counsel,

14 ^aBut lusted exceedingly in the wilderness,
And tested God in the desert.

15 ^aAnd He gave them their request,
But ^bsent leanness into their soul.

16 When ^athey envied Moses in the camp,
And Aaron the saint of the Lord,

17 ^aThe earth opened up and swallowed Dathan,
And covered the faction of Abiram.
