Psalm 106:12-48
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
12 Then they believed his words;
they sang his praise.(A)
13 But they soon forgot his works;
they did not wait for his counsel.(B)
14 But they had a wanton craving in the wilderness
and put God to the test in the desert;(C)
15 he gave them what they asked
but sent a wasting disease among them.(D)
16 They were jealous of Moses in the camp
and of Aaron, the holy one of the Lord.(E)
17 The earth opened and swallowed up Dathan
and covered the faction of Abiram.(F)
18 Fire also broke out in their company;
the flame burned up the wicked.(G)
19 They made a calf at Horeb
and worshiped a cast image.(H)
20 They exchanged the glory of God[a]
for the image of an ox that eats grass.(I)
21 They forgot God, their Savior,
who had done great things in Egypt,(J)
22 wondrous works in the land of Ham,
and awesome deeds by the Red Sea.[b](K)
23 Therefore he said he would destroy them—
had not Moses, his chosen one,
stood in the breach before him,
to turn away his wrath from destroying them.(L)
24 Then they despised the pleasant land,
having no faith in his promise.(M)
25 They grumbled in their tents
and did not obey the voice of the Lord.(N)
26 Therefore he raised his hand and swore to them
that he would make them fall in the wilderness(O)
27 and would disperse[c] their descendants among the nations,
scattering them over the lands.(P)
28 Then they attached themselves to the Baal of Peor
and ate sacrifices offered to the dead;(Q)
29 they provoked the Lord to anger with their deeds,
and a plague broke out among them.
30 Then Phinehas stood up and interceded,
and the plague was stopped.(R)
31 And that has been reckoned to him as righteousness
from generation to generation forever.(S)
32 They angered the Lord[d] at the waters of Meribah,
and it went ill with Moses on their account,(T)
33 for they made his spirit bitter,
and he spoke words that were rash.(U)
34 They did not destroy the peoples,
as the Lord had commanded them,(V)
35 but they mingled with the nations
and learned to do as they did.(W)
36 They served their idols,
which became a snare to them.(X)
37 They sacrificed their sons
and their daughters to the demons;(Y)
38 they poured out innocent blood,
the blood of their sons and daughters,
whom they sacrificed to the idols of Canaan,
and the land was polluted with blood.(Z)
39 Thus they became unclean by their acts
and prostituted themselves in their doings.(AA)
40 Then the anger of the Lord was kindled against his people,
and he abhorred his heritage;(AB)
41 he gave them into the hand of the nations,
so that those who hated them ruled over them.(AC)
42 Their enemies oppressed them,
and they were brought into subjection under their power.
43 Many times he delivered them,
but they were rebellious in their purposes
and were brought low through their iniquity.(AD)
44 Nevertheless, he regarded their distress
when he heard their cry.(AE)
45 For their sake he remembered his covenant
and showed compassion according to the abundance of his steadfast love.(AF)
46 He caused them to be pitied
by all who held them captive.(AG)
47 Save us, O Lord our God,
and gather us from among the nations,
that we may give thanks to your holy name
and glory in your praise.(AH)
48 Blessed be the Lord, the God of Israel,
from everlasting to everlasting.
And let all the people say, “Amen.”
Praise the Lord!(AI)
Psalm 106:12-48
New International Version
Psalm 106:12-48
New International Version
12 Then they believed his promises
and sang his praise.(A)
13 But they soon forgot(B) what he had done
and did not wait for his plan to unfold.(C)
14 In the desert(D) they gave in to their craving;
in the wilderness(E) they put God to the test.(F)
15 So he gave them(G) what they asked for,
but sent a wasting disease(H) among them.
16 In the camp they grew envious(I) of Moses
and of Aaron, who was consecrated to the Lord.
17 The earth opened(J) up and swallowed Dathan;(K)
it buried the company of Abiram.(L)
18 Fire blazed(M) among their followers;
a flame consumed the wicked.
19 At Horeb they made a calf(N)
and worshiped an idol cast from metal.
20 They exchanged their glorious God(O)
for an image of a bull, which eats grass.
21 They forgot the God(P) who saved them,
who had done great things(Q) in Egypt,
22 miracles in the land of Ham(R)
and awesome deeds(S) by the Red Sea.
23 So he said he would destroy(T) them—
had not Moses, his chosen one,
stood in the breach(U) before him
to keep his wrath from destroying them.
24 Then they despised(V) the pleasant land;(W)
they did not believe(X) his promise.
25 They grumbled(Y) in their tents
and did not obey the Lord.
26 So he swore(Z) to them with uplifted hand
that he would make them fall in the wilderness,(AA)
27 make their descendants fall among the nations
and scatter(AB) them throughout the lands.
28 They yoked themselves to the Baal of Peor(AC)
and ate sacrifices offered to lifeless gods;
29 they aroused the Lord’s anger(AD) by their wicked deeds,(AE)
and a plague(AF) broke out among them.
30 But Phinehas(AG) stood up and intervened,
and the plague was checked.(AH)
31 This was credited to him(AI) as righteousness
for endless generations(AJ) to come.
32 By the waters of Meribah(AK) they angered the Lord,
and trouble came to Moses because of them;
33 for they rebelled(AL) against the Spirit(AM) of God,
and rash words came from Moses’ lips.[a](AN)
34 They did not destroy(AO) the peoples
as the Lord had commanded(AP) them,
35 but they mingled(AQ) with the nations
and adopted their customs.
36 They worshiped their idols,(AR)
which became a snare(AS) to them.
37 They sacrificed their sons(AT)
and their daughters to false gods.(AU)
38 They shed innocent blood,
the blood of their sons(AV) and daughters,
whom they sacrificed to the idols of Canaan,
and the land was desecrated by their blood.
39 They defiled themselves(AW) by what they did;
by their deeds they prostituted(AX) themselves.
40 Therefore the Lord was angry(AY) with his people
and abhorred his inheritance.(AZ)
41 He gave them into the hands(BA) of the nations,
and their foes ruled over them.
42 Their enemies oppressed(BB) them
and subjected them to their power.
43 Many times he delivered them,(BC)
but they were bent on rebellion(BD)
and they wasted away in their sin.
44 Yet he took note of their distress
when he heard their cry;(BE)
45 for their sake he remembered his covenant(BF)
and out of his great love(BG) he relented.(BH)
46 He caused all who held them captive
to show them mercy.(BI)
47 Save us,(BJ) Lord our God,
and gather us(BK) from the nations,
that we may give thanks(BL) to your holy name(BM)
and glory in your praise.
48 Praise be to the Lord, the God of Israel,
from everlasting to everlasting.
Let all the people say, “Amen!”(BN)
Praise the Lord.

New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
39 He spread a cloud for a covering
and fire to give light by night.(A)
40 They asked, and he brought quails
and gave them food from heaven in abundance.(B)
41 He opened the rock, and water gushed out;
it flowed through the desert like a river.(C)

New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
Psalm 78:14-72
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
14 In the daytime he led them with a cloud
and all night long with a fiery light.(A)
15 He split rocks open in the wilderness
and gave them drink abundantly as from the deep.(B)
16 He made streams come out of the rock
and caused waters to flow down like rivers.
17 Yet they sinned still more against him,
rebelling against the Most High in the desert.(C)
18 They tested God in their heart
by demanding the food they craved.(D)
19 They spoke against God, saying,
“Can God spread a table in the wilderness?(E)
20 Even though he struck the rock so that water gushed out
and torrents overflowed,
can he also give bread
or provide meat for his people?”(F)
21 Therefore, when the Lord heard, he was full of rage;
a fire was kindled against Jacob,
his anger mounted against Israel,(G)
22 because they had no faith in God
and did not trust his saving power.(H)
23 Yet he commanded the skies above
and opened the doors of heaven;(I)
24 he rained down on them manna to eat
and gave them the grain of heaven.(J)
25 Mortals ate of the bread of angels;
he sent them food in abundance.
26 He caused the east wind to blow in the heavens,
and by his power he led out the south wind;(K)
27 he rained flesh upon them like dust,
winged birds like the sand of the seas;(L)
28 he let them fall within their camp,
all around their dwellings.
29 And they ate and were well filled,
for he gave them what they craved.(M)
30 But before they had satisfied their craving,
while the food was still in their mouths,
31 the anger of God rose against them,
and he killed the strongest of them
and laid low the flower of Israel.(N)
32 In spite of all this they still sinned;
they did not believe in his wonders.(O)
33 So he made their days vanish like a breath
and their years in terror.(P)
34 When he killed them, they searched for him;
they repented and sought God earnestly.(Q)
35 They remembered that God was their rock,
the Most High God their redeemer.(R)
36 But they flattered him with their mouths;
they lied to him with their tongues.(S)
37 Their heart was not steadfast toward him;
they were not true to his covenant.
38 Yet he, being compassionate,
forgave their iniquity
and did not destroy them;
often he restrained his anger
and did not stir up all his wrath.(T)
39 He remembered that they were but flesh,
a wind that passes and does not come again.(U)
40 How often they rebelled against him in the wilderness
and grieved him in the desert!(V)
41 They tested God again and again
and provoked the Holy One of Israel.(W)
42 They did not keep in mind his power
or the day when he redeemed them from the foe,
43 when he displayed his signs in Egypt
and his miracles in the fields of Zoan.
44 He turned their rivers to blood,
so that they could not drink of their streams.(X)
45 He sent among them swarms of flies that devoured them
and frogs that destroyed them.(Y)
46 He gave their crops to the caterpillar
and the fruit of their labor to the locust.
47 He destroyed their vines with hail
and their sycamores with frost.(Z)
48 He gave over their cattle to the hail
and their flocks to thunderbolts.(AA)
49 He let loose on them his fierce anger,
wrath, indignation, and distress,
a company of destroying angels.(AB)
50 He made a path for his anger;
he did not spare them from death
but gave their lives over to the plague.
51 He struck all the firstborn in Egypt,
the first issue of their strength in the tents of Ham.(AC)
52 Then he led out his people like sheep
and guided them in the wilderness like a flock.(AD)
53 He led them in safety so that they were not afraid,
but the sea overwhelmed their enemies.(AE)
54 And he brought them to his holy hill,
to the mountain that his right hand had won.(AF)
55 He drove out nations before them;
he apportioned them for a possession
and settled the tribes of Israel in their tents.(AG)
56 Yet they tested the Most High God
and rebelled against him.
They did not observe his decrees(AH)
57 but turned away and were faithless like their ancestors;
they twisted like a treacherous bow.(AI)
58 For they provoked him to anger with their high places;
they moved him to jealousy with their idols.(AJ)
59 When God heard, he was full of wrath,
and he utterly rejected Israel.
60 He abandoned his dwelling at Shiloh,
the tent where he dwelt among mortals,(AK)
61 and delivered his power to captivity,
his glory to the hand of the foe.(AL)
62 He gave his people to the sword
and vented his wrath on his heritage.(AM)
63 Fire devoured their young men,
and their young women had no marriage song.(AN)
64 Their priests fell by the sword,
and their widows made no lamentation.(AO)
65 Then the Lord awoke as from sleep,
like a warrior shouting because of wine.(AP)
66 He put his adversaries to rout;
he put them to everlasting disgrace.(AQ)
67 He rejected the tent of Joseph;
he did not choose the tribe of Ephraim,
68 but he chose the tribe of Judah,
Mount Zion, which he loves.(AR)
69 He built his sanctuary like the high heavens,
like the earth, which he has founded forever.(AS)
70 He chose his servant David
and took him from the sheepfolds;(AT)
71 from tending the nursing ewes he brought him
to be the shepherd of his people Jacob,
of Israel, his inheritance.(AU)
72 With upright heart he tended them
and guided them with skillful hand.(AV)
Psalm 78:14-72
New International Version
Psalm 78:14-72
New International Version
14 He guided them with the cloud by day
and with light from the fire all night.(A)
15 He split the rocks(B) in the wilderness
and gave them water as abundant as the seas;
16 he brought streams out of a rocky crag
and made water flow down like rivers.
17 But they continued to sin(C) against him,
rebelling in the wilderness against the Most High.
18 They willfully put God to the test(D)
by demanding the food they craved.(E)
19 They spoke against God;(F)
they said, “Can God really
spread a table in the wilderness?
20 True, he struck the rock,
and water gushed out,(G)
streams flowed abundantly,
but can he also give us bread?
Can he supply meat(H) for his people?”
21 When the Lord heard them, he was furious;
his fire broke out(I) against Jacob,
and his wrath rose against Israel,
22 for they did not believe in God
or trust(J) in his deliverance.
23 Yet he gave a command to the skies above
and opened the doors of the heavens;(K)
24 he rained down manna(L) for the people to eat,
he gave them the grain of heaven.
25 Human beings ate the bread of angels;
he sent them all the food they could eat.
26 He let loose the east wind(M) from the heavens
and by his power made the south wind blow.
27 He rained meat down on them like dust,
birds(N) like sand on the seashore.
28 He made them come down inside their camp,
all around their tents.
29 They ate till they were gorged—(O)
he had given them what they craved.
30 But before they turned from what they craved,
even while the food was still in their mouths,(P)
31 God’s anger rose against them;
he put to death the sturdiest(Q) among them,
cutting down the young men of Israel.
32 In spite of all this, they kept on sinning;(R)
in spite of his wonders,(S) they did not believe.(T)
33 So he ended their days in futility(U)
and their years in terror.
34 Whenever God slew them, they would seek(V) him;
they eagerly turned to him again.
35 They remembered that God was their Rock,(W)
that God Most High was their Redeemer.(X)
36 But then they would flatter him with their mouths,(Y)
lying to him with their tongues;
37 their hearts were not loyal(Z) to him,
they were not faithful to his covenant.
38 Yet he was merciful;(AA)
he forgave(AB) their iniquities(AC)
and did not destroy them.
Time after time he restrained his anger(AD)
and did not stir up his full wrath.
39 He remembered that they were but flesh,(AE)
a passing breeze(AF) that does not return.
40 How often they rebelled(AG) against him in the wilderness(AH)
and grieved him(AI) in the wasteland!
41 Again and again they put God to the test;(AJ)
they vexed the Holy One of Israel.(AK)
42 They did not remember(AL) his power—
the day he redeemed them from the oppressor,(AM)
43 the day he displayed his signs(AN) in Egypt,
his wonders(AO) in the region of Zoan.
44 He turned their river into blood;(AP)
they could not drink from their streams.
45 He sent swarms of flies(AQ) that devoured them,
and frogs(AR) that devastated them.
46 He gave their crops to the grasshopper,(AS)
their produce to the locust.(AT)
47 He destroyed their vines with hail(AU)
and their sycamore-figs with sleet.
48 He gave over their cattle to the hail,
their livestock(AV) to bolts of lightning.
49 He unleashed against them his hot anger,(AW)
his wrath, indignation and hostility—
a band of destroying angels.(AX)
50 He prepared a path for his anger;
he did not spare them from death
but gave them over to the plague.
51 He struck down all the firstborn of Egypt,(AY)
the firstfruits of manhood in the tents of Ham.(AZ)
52 But he brought his people out like a flock;(BA)
he led them like sheep through the wilderness.
53 He guided them safely, so they were unafraid;
but the sea engulfed(BB) their enemies.(BC)
54 And so he brought them to the border of his holy land,
to the hill country his right hand(BD) had taken.
55 He drove out nations(BE) before them
and allotted their lands to them as an inheritance;(BF)
he settled the tribes of Israel in their homes.
56 But they put God to the test
and rebelled against the Most High;
they did not keep his statutes.
57 Like their ancestors(BG) they were disloyal and faithless,
as unreliable as a faulty bow.(BH)
58 They angered him(BI) with their high places;(BJ)
they aroused his jealousy with their idols.(BK)
59 When God heard(BL) them, he was furious;(BM)
he rejected Israel(BN) completely.
60 He abandoned the tabernacle of Shiloh,(BO)
the tent he had set up among humans.(BP)
61 He sent the ark of his might(BQ) into captivity,(BR)
his splendor into the hands of the enemy.
62 He gave his people over to the sword;(BS)
he was furious with his inheritance.(BT)
63 Fire consumed(BU) their young men,
and their young women had no wedding songs;(BV)
64 their priests were put to the sword,(BW)
and their widows could not weep.
65 Then the Lord awoke as from sleep,(BX)
as a warrior wakes from the stupor of wine.
66 He beat back his enemies;
he put them to everlasting shame.(BY)
67 Then he rejected the tents of Joseph,
he did not choose the tribe of Ephraim;(BZ)
68 but he chose the tribe of Judah,(CA)
Mount Zion,(CB) which he loved.
69 He built his sanctuary(CC) like the heights,
like the earth that he established forever.
70 He chose David(CD) his servant
and took him from the sheep pens;
71 from tending the sheep(CE) he brought him
to be the shepherd(CF) of his people Jacob,
of Israel his inheritance.
72 And David shepherded them with integrity of heart;(CG)
with skillful hands he led them.
