| [2]Who can expresse the valiaunt actes of God: who can publishe abrode all his prayse |

| [3]Blessed are they that kepe iudgement: and do iustice at all times |

| [6]We haue sinned with our fathers: we haue done amisse and dealt wickedly |
[6]We have sinned with our fathers, we have committed iniquity, we have done wickedly. |
| [7]Our fathers did not well consider thy wonders in Egypt, neither did they remember thy manifolde great goodnes: but they rebelled at the sea, euen at the red sea |
[7]Our fathers understood not thy wonders in Egypt; they remembered not the multitude of thy mercies; but provoked him at the sea, even at the Red sea. |
| [8]Neuerthelesse, he saued them for his names sake: that he myght make his power to be knowen |
[8]Nevertheless he saved them for his name's sake, that he might make his mighty power to be known. |
| [9]And he rebuked the red sea, and it was dryed vp: so he led them through the deepe, as through a wyldernesse |
[9]He rebuked the Red sea also, and it was dried up: so he led them through the depths, as through the wilderness. |
| [10]And he saued them from the hande of suche as hated them: & redeemed them from the hande of the enemie |
[10]And he saved them from the hand of him that hated them, and redeemed them from the hand of the enemy. |
| [11]As for their aduersaries the waters ouerwhelmed them: there was not one of them left remayning |
[11]And the waters covered their enemies: there was not one of them left. |
| [12]Then beleued they his wordes: and song prayse vnto him |

| [13]But within a very short whyle they forgat his workes: they woulde not wayte for his counsell |

| [15]And he gaue them their desire: and sent leannes withal into their soule |

| [16]They enuied also at Moyses in the tentes: [and] at Aaron the saint of God |
[16]They envied Moses also in the camp, and Aaron the saint of the LORD. |
| [17]So the earth opened and swalowed vp Dathan: and couered the company of Abiram |

| [18]And the fire was kindled in their company: the flambe brent vp the vngodly |

| [19]They made a calfe in Horeb: and worshipped the moulten image |

| [20]Thus they turned their glory: into the similitude of a calfe that eateth hay |

| [21](106:21a) They forgat God their sauiour, who had done so great thynges in Egypt |

[22]Wondrous works in the land of Ham, and terrible things by the Red sea. |
| [23](106:22) Wherfore he appointed to destroy them, had not Moyses his chosen stand in the breache before hym: to turne away his wrathful indignation, lest he should destroy them |
[23]Therefore he said that he would destroy them, had not Moses his chosen stood before him in the breach, to turn away his wrath, lest he should destroy them. |
| [24](106:23) Yea they thought scorne of the lande most to be desired: they gaue no credite vnto his worde |
[24]Yea, they despised the pleasant land, they believed not his word: |
| [25](106:24) But they murmured in their tentes: they would not hearken vnto the voyce of God |
[25]But murmured in their tents, and hearkened not unto the voice of the LORD. |
| [26](106:25a) Then lift he vp his hand against them, to geue them an ouerthrowe in the wildernesse |
[26]Therefore he lifted up his hand against them, to overthrow them in the wilderness: |
| [27](106:25b) to geue their seede an ouerthrowe amongst the nations, and to scatter them in sundry landes |

| [29](106:27) And they prouoked the [Lorde] vnto anger with their owne inuentions: and a plague fell mightily amongst them |
[29]Thus they provoked him to anger with their inventions: and the plague brake in upon them. |
| [30](106:28) Then stoode vp Phinehes, he executed iustice: and so the plague ceassed |
[30]Then stood up Phinehas, and executed judgment: and so the plague was stayed. |
| [31](106:29) And that was imputed vnto hym for righteousnesse: in generation and generation for euermore |
[31]And that was counted unto him for righteousness unto all generations for evermore. |
| [32](106:30) They also prouoked [God] at the waters of strife: and all was not well with Moyses for their sakes |
[32]They angered him also at the waters of strife, so that it went ill with Moses for their sakes: |
| [33](106:31) For they had caused an alteration to be of his spirite: so that he spake vnaduisedly with his lippes |
[33]Because they provoked his spirit, so that he spake unadvisedly with his lips. |
| [34](106:32) Moreouer, they destroyed not the Heathen: as God commaunded them |
[34]They did not destroy the nations, concerning whom the LORD commanded them: |
| [35](106:33) But they were mingled amongst the Heathen: and learned their workes |

| [36](106:34) Insomuch that they dyd seruice vnto their idols: whiche were to the a snare |

| [38](106:36) And they shed innocent blood, euen the blood of their sonnes and of their daughters: whom they sacrifised vnto the idols of Chanaan, and the lande was defiled with blood |
[38]And shed innocent blood, even the blood of their sons and of their daughters, whom they sacrificed unto the idols of Canaan: and the land was polluted with blood. |

[39]Thus were they defiled with their own works, and went a whoring with their own inventions. |
| [40](106:38) Therfore was the wrath of God kindeled against his people: insomuch that he abhorred his owne inheritaunce |
[40]Therefore was the wrath of the LORD kindled against his people, insomuch that he abhorred his own inheritance. |

[43]Many times did he deliver them; but they provoked him with their counsel, and were brought low for their iniquity. |
| [44](106:42) Neuerthelesse, he did beholde them in their aduersitie: in geuing eare to their complaint |
[44]Nevertheless he regarded their affliction, when he heard their cry: |
| [45](106:43) And he remembred his couenaunt: and repented, according to the multitude of his mercies |
[45]And he remembered for them his covenant, and repented according to the multitude of his mercies. |
| [46](106:44) Yea he made all those that led them away captiue: to pitie them |
[46]He made them also to be pitied of all those that carried them captives. |

[47]Save us, O LORD our God, and gather us from among the heathen, to give thanks unto thy holy name, and to triumph in thy praise. |
