1 Hallelujah! Give thanks to Jehovah, for He is good, For His loving-kindness [endures] for ever. 2 Who can speak forth the mighty deeds of Jehovah? [Who] can cause all His praise to be heard? 3 Blessed are they who observe right, He who does righteousness at all times. 4 Remember me, Jehovah, with the favour which Thou bearest to Thy people, Visit me with Thy salvation; 5 That I may look on the prosperity of Thy chosen ones, That I may joy in the joy of Thy nation, That I may triumph with Thine inheritance. 6 We have sinned with our fathers, We have done perversely, have done wickedly. 7 Our fathers in Egypt considered not Thy wonders, They remembered not the multitude of Thy loving-kindnesses, And rebelled at the Sea, by the Red Sea. 8 And He saved them for His name's sake, To make known His might; 9 And He rebuked the Red Sea and it was dried up, And He led them in the depths as in a wilderness; 10 And He saved them from the hand of the hater, And redeemed them from the hand of the enemy; 11 And the waters covered their oppressors, Not one of them was left; 12 And they believed on His words, They sang His praise. 13 They hasted [and] forgot His works, They waited not for His counsel; 14 And they lusted a lust in the wilderness, And tempted God in the desert; 15 And He gave them what they asked for, And sent wasting sickness into their soul. 16 They were jealous against Moses in the camp, Against Aaron, the holy one of Jehovah. 17 The earth opened and swallowed Dathan, And covered the company of Abiram; 18 And fire blazed out on their company, Flame consumed the wicked ones. 19 They made a calf in Horeb, And bowed down to a molten image; 20 And they changed their Glory For the likeness of a grass-eating ox. 21 They forgot God their Saviour, Who did great things in Egypt, 22 Wonders in the land of Ham, Dread things by the Red Sea. 23 And He said that He would annihilate them, Had not Moses, His chosen one, stood in the breach confronting Him To turn His anger from destroying. 24 And they despised the delightsome land, They trusted not to His word; 25 And they murmured in their tents, They hearkened not to the voice of Jehovah; 26 And He lifted up His hand to them, [swearing] That He would make them fall in the wilderness, 27 And that He would make their seed fall among the nations, And scatter them in the lands.
