Psalm 106

O give thanks unto the Lord, for he is gracious  *

and his mercy endureth for ever.

Who can express the noble acts of the Lord *

or shew forth all his praise?

Blessed are they that alway keep judgement *

and do righteousness.

Remember me, O Lord, according to the favour that thou bearest unto thy people *

O visit me with thy salvation;

That I may see the felicity of thy chosen *

and rejoice in the gladness of thy people, and give thanks with thine inheritance.

We have sinned with our fathers *

we have done amiss, and dealt wickedly.

They made a calf in Horeb *

and worshipped the molten image.

Thus they turned their glory *

into the similitude of a calf that eateth hay.

And they forgat God their Saviour *

who had done so great things in Egypt;

Wondrous works in the land of Ham *

and fearful things by the Red sea.

So he said, he would have destroyed them, had not Moses his chosen stood before him in the gap *

to turn away his wrathful indignation, lest he should destroy them.
