< Psalms 106 >

1 Let the Lord be praised. O give praise to the Lord, for he is good: for his mercy is unchanging for ever.
Alelu-JAH. Alabad al SEÑOR, porque es bueno; porque para siempre es su misericordia.
2 Who is able to give an account of the great acts of the Lord, or to make clear all his praise?
¿Quién expresará las valentías del SEÑOR? ¿Quién contará sus alabanzas?
3 Happy are they whose decisions are upright, and he who does righteousness at all times.
Dichosos los que guardan juicio, los que hacen justicia en todo tiempo.
4 Keep me in mind, O Lord, when you are good to your people; O let your salvation come to me;
Acuérdate de mí, oh SEÑOR, en la buena voluntad para con tu pueblo; visítame con tu salud;
5 So that I may see the well-being of the people of your selection, and have a part in the joy of your nation, and take pride in your heritage.
para que yo vea el bien de tus escogidos, para que me goce en la alegría de tu nación, y me gloríe con tu heredad.
6 We are sinners like our fathers, we have done wrong, our acts are evil.
Pecamos con nuestros padres, pervertimos, hicimos impiedad.
7 Our fathers did not give thought to your wonders in Egypt; they did not keep in memory the great number of your mercies, but gave you cause for wrath at the sea, even at the Red Sea.
Nuestros padres en Egipto no entendieron tus maravillas; no se acordaron de la muchedumbre de tus misericordias; sino que se rebelaron junto al mar, en el mar Bermejo.
8 But he was their saviour because of his name, so that men might see his great power.
Los salvó por su Nombre, para hacer notoria su fortaleza.
9 By his word the Red Sea was made dry: and he took them through the deep waters as through the waste land.
Y reprendió al mar Bermejo, y lo secó; y les hizo ir por el abismo, como por un desierto.
10 And he took them safely out of the hands of their haters, and kept them from the attacks of those who were against them.
Y los salvó de mano del enemigo, y los rescató de mano del adversario.
11 And the waters went over their haters; all of them came to an end.
Y cubrieron las aguas a sus enemigos; no quedó uno de ellos.
12 Then they had faith in his words; they gave him songs of praise.
Entonces creyeron a sus palabras, y cantaron su alabanza.
13 But their memory of his works was short; not waiting to be guided by him,
Se apresuraron, se olvidaron de sus obras; no esperaron en su consejo.
14 They gave way to their evil desires in the waste land, and put God to the test in the dry places.
Se entregaron a un deseo desordenado en el desierto; y tentaron a Dios en la soledad.
15 And he gave them their request, but sent a wasting disease into their souls.
Y él les dio lo que pidieron; mas envió flaqueza en sus almas.
16 They were full of envy against Moses among the tents, and against Aaron, the holy one of the Lord.
Tomaron después celo contra Moisés en el campamento, y contra Aarón el santo del SEÑOR.
17 The earth opening put an end to Dathan, covering up Abiram and his band.
Se abrió la tierra, y tragó a Datán, y cubrió la compañía de Abiram.
18 And a fire was lighted among their tents; the sinners were burned up by the flames.
Y se encendió el fuego en su compañía; la llama quemó los impíos.
19 They made a young ox in Horeb, and gave worship to an image of gold.
Hicieron el becerro en Horeb, y adoraron a un vaciadizo.
20 And their glory was changed into the image of an ox, whose food is grass.
Así trocaron su gloria por la imagen de un buey que come hierba.
21 They had no memory of God their saviour, who had done great things in Egypt;
Olvidaron al Dios de su salud, que había hecho grandezas en Egipto;
22 Works of wonder in the land of Ham, and things of fear by the Red Sea.
maravillas en la tierra de Cam, temerosas cosas sobre el mar Bermejo.
23 And he was purposing to put an end to them if Moses, his special servant, had not gone up before him, between him and his people, turning back his wrath, to keep them from destruction.
Y trató de destruirlos, a no haberse puesto Moisés su escogido al portillo delante de él, a fin de apartar su ira, para que no los destruyese.
24 They were disgusted with the good land; they had no belief in his word;
Y aborrecieron la tierra deseable; no creyeron a su palabra;
25 Talking against him secretly in their tents, they did not give ear to the voice of the Lord.
antes murmuraron en sus tiendas, y no oyeron la voz del SEÑOR.
26 So he made an oath against them, to put an end to them in the waste land:
Por lo que alzó su mano a ellos, para postrarlos en el desierto,
27 That their children might be mixed among the nations, and sent away into other lands.
y humillar su simiente entre los gentiles, y esparcirlos por las tierras.
28 And they were joined to Baal-peor, and took part in the offerings to the dead.
Se allegaron asimismo a Baal-peor, y comieron los sacrificios por los muertos.
29 So they made him angry by their behaviour; and he sent disease on them.
Y ensañaron a Dios con sus obras, y aumentó la mortandad en ellos.
30 Then Phinehas got up, and made prayer for them; and the disease went no farther.
Entonces se puso Finees, y juzgó; y se detuvo la mortandad.
31 And all the generations coming after him kept the memory of his righteousness for ever.
Y le fue contado a justicia de generación en generación para siempre.
32 They made God angry again at the waters of Meribah, so that Moses was troubled because of them;
También le irritaron en las aguas de Meriba; e hizo mal a Moisés por causa de ellos;
33 For they made his spirit bitter, and he said unwise things.
porque hicieron rebelar a su espíritu, como lo expresó con sus labios.
34 They did not put an end to the peoples, as the Lord had said;
No destruyeron los pueblos que el SEÑOR les dijo;
35 But they were joined to the nations, learning their works.
antes se mezclaron con los gentiles, y aprendieron sus obras.
36 And they gave worship to images; which were a danger to them:
Y sirvieron a sus ídolos; los cuales les fueron por ruina.
37 They even made offerings of their sons and their daughters to evil spirits,
Y sacrificaron sus hijos y sus hijas a los demonios;
38 And gave the blood of their sons and their daughters who had done no wrong, offering them to the images of Canaan; and the land was made unclean with blood.
y derramaron la sangre inocente, la sangre de sus hijos y de sus hijas, que sacrificaron a los ídolos de Canaán; y la tierra fue contaminada con sangre.
39 So they became unclean through their works, going after their evil desires.
Se contaminaron así con sus propias obras, y fornicaron con sus hechos.
40 Then the wrath of the Lord was burning against his people, and he was angry with his heritage.
Se encendió por tanto el furor del SEÑOR sobre su pueblo, y abominó su heredad:
41 And he gave them into the hands of the nations; and they were ruled by their haters.
Y los entregó en poder de los gentiles, y se enseñorearon de ellos los que los aborrecían.
42 By them they were crushed, and made low under their hands.
Y sus enemigos los oprimieron, y fueron quebrantados debajo de su mano.
43 Again and again he made them free; but their hearts were turned against his purpose, and they were overcome by their sins.
Muchas veces los libró; mas ellos se rebelaron a su consejo, y fueron humillados por su maldad.
44 But when their cry came to his ears, he had pity on their trouble:
El con todo, miraba cuando estaban en angustia, y oía su clamor;
45 And kept in mind his agreement with them, and in his great mercy gave them forgiveness.
y se acordaba de su pacto con ellos, y se arrepentía conforme a la muchedumbre de sus misericordias.
46 He put pity into the hearts of those who made them prisoners.
Hizo asimismo que tuviesen de ellos misericordia todos los que los tenían cautivos.
47 Be our saviour, O Lord our God, and let us come back together from among the nations, so that we may give honour to your holy name, and have glory in your praise.
Sálvanos, SEÑOR Dios nuestro, y júntanos de entre los gentiles, para que loemos tu santo Nombre, para que nos gloriemos de tus alabanzas.
48 Praise be to the Lord God of Israel for ever and for ever; and let all the people say, So be it. Give praise to the Lord.
Bendito el SEÑOR Dios de Israel, desde el siglo y hasta el siglo; y diga todo el pueblo, Amén. Alelu-JAH.
