The Book of Psalms

  Psalm 106  

106:1 Give glory to the Lord, for he is good: for his mercy endureth for ever.

106:1 Confitemini Domino quoniam bonus quoniam in saeculum misericordia eius

106:2 Let them say so that have been redeemed by the Lord, whom he hath redeemed from the hand of the enemy: and gathered out of the countries.

106:2 Dicant qui redempti sunt a Domino quos redemit de manu inimici de regionibus congregavit eos

106:3 From the rising and the setting of the sun, from the north and from the sea.

106:3 A solis ortu et occasu et ab aquilone et mari

106:4 They wandered in a wilderness, in a place without water: they found not the way of a city for their habitation.

106:4 Erraverunt in solitudine in inaquoso viam civitatis habitaculi non invenerunt

106:5 They were hungry and thirsty: their soul fainted in them.

106:5 Esurientes et sitientes anima eorum in ipsis defecit

106:6 And they cried to the Lord in their tribulation: and he delivered them out of their distresses.

106:6 Et clamaverunt ad Dominum cum tribularentur et de necessitatibus eorum eripuit eos

106:7 And he led them into the right way: that they might go to a city of habitation.

106:7 Et deduxit eos in viam rec tam ut irent in civitatem habitationis

106:8 Let the mercies of the Lord give glory to him: and his wonderful works to the children of men.

106:8 Confiteantur Domino misericordiae eius et mirabilia eius filiis hominum

106:9 For he hath satisfied the empty soul, and hath filled the hungry soul with good things.

106:9 Quia satiavit animam inanem et animam esurientem satiavit bonis

106:10 Such as sat in darkness and in the shadow of death: bound in want and in iron.

106:10 Sedentes in tenebris et umbra mortis vinctos in mendicitate et ferro

106:11 Because they had exasperated the words of God: and provoked the counsel of the most High:

106:11 Quia exacerbaverunt eloquia Dei et consilium Altis simi inritaverunt

106:12 And their heart was humbled with labours: they were weakened, and their was none to help them.

106:12 Et humiliatum est in laboribus cor eorum infirmati sunt nec fuit qui adiuvaret

106:13 Then they cried to the Lord in their affliction: and he delivered them out of their distresses.

106:13 Et clamaverunt ad Dominum cum tribularentur et de necessitatibus eorum liberavit eos

106:14 And he brought them out of darkness, and the shadow of death; and broke their bonds in sunder.

106:14 Et eduxit eos de tenebris et umbra mortis et vincula eorum disrupit

106:15 Let the mercies of the Lord give glory to him, and his wonderful works to the children of men.

106:15 Confiteantur Domino misericordiae eius et mirabilia eius filiis hominum

106:16 Because he hath broken gates of brass, and burst the iron bars.

106:16 Quia contrivit portas aereas et vectes ferreos confregit

106:17 He took them out of the way of their iniquity: for they were brought low for their injustices.

106:17 Suscepit eos de via iniquitatis eorum propter iniustitias enim suas humiliati sunt

106:18 Their soul abhorred all manner of meat: and they drew nigh even to the gates of death.

106:18 Omnem escam abominata est anima eorum et adpropinquaverunt usque ad portas mortis

106:19 And they cried to the Lord in their affliction: and he delivered them out of their distresses.

106:19 Et clamaverunt ad Dominum cum tribularentur et de necessitatibus eorum liberavit eos

106:20 He sent his word, and healed them: and delivered them from their destructions.

106:20 Misit verbum suum et sanavit eos et eripuit eos de interitionibus eorum

106:21 Let the mercies of the Lord give glory to him: and his wonderful works to the children of men.

106:21 Confiteantur Domino misericordiae eius et mirabilia eius filiis hominum

106:22 And let them sacrifice the sacrifice of praise: and declare his works with joy.

106:22 Et sacrificent sacrificium laudis et adnuntient opera eius in exultatione

106:23 They that go down to the sea in ships, doing business in the great waters:

106:23 Qui descendunt mare in navibus facientes operationem in aquis multis

106:24 These have seen the works of the Lord, and his wonders in the deep.

106:24 Ipsi viderunt opera Domini et mirabilia eius in profundo

106:25 He said the word, and there arose a storm of wind: and the waves thereof were lifted up.

106:25 Dixit et stetit spiritus procellae et exaltati sunt fluctus eius

106:26 They mount up to the heavens, and they go down to the depths: their soul pined away with evils.

106:26 Ascendunt usque ad caelos et descendunt usque ad abyssos anima eorum in malis tabescebat

106:27 They were troubled, and reeled like a drunken man; and all their wisdom was swallowed up.

106:27 Turbati sunt et moti sunt sicut ebrius et omnis sapientia eorum devorata est

106:28 And they cried to the Lord in their affliction: and he brought them out of their distresses.

106:28 Et clamaverunt ad Dominum cum tribularentur et de necessitatibus eorum eduxit eos

106:29 And he turned the storm into a breeze: and its waves were still.

106:29 Et statuit procellam eius in auram et siluerunt fluctus eius

106:30 And they rejoiced because they were still: and he brought them to the haven which they wished for.

106:30 Et laetati sunt quia siluerunt et deduxit eos in portum voluntatis eorum

106:31 Let the mercies of the Lord give glory to him, and his wonderful works to the children of men.

106:31 Confiteantur Domino misericor diae eius et mirabilia eius filiis hominum

106:32 And let them exalt him in the church of the people: and praise him in the chair of the ancients.

106:32 Exaltent eum in ecclesia plebis et in cathedra seniorum laudent eum

106:33 He hath turned rivers into a wilderness: and the sources of water into dry ground:

106:33 Posuit flumina in desertum et exitus aquarum in sitim

106:34 A fruitful land into barrenness, for the wickedness of them that dwell therein.

106:34 Terram fruc tiferam in salsuginem a malitia inhabitantium in ea

106:35 He hath turned a wilderness into pools of water, and a dry land into water springs.

106:35 Posuit desertum in stagna aquarum et terram sine aqua in exitus aquarum

106:36 And hath placed there the hungry; and they made a city for their habitation.

106:36 Et conlocavit illic esurientes et constituerunt civitatem habitationis

106:37 And they sowed fields, and planted vineyards: and they yielded fruit of birth.

106:37 Et seminaverunt agros et plantaverunt vineas et fecerunt fructum nativitatis

106:38 And he blessed them, and they were multiplied exceedingly: and their cattle he suffered not to decrease.

106:38 Et benedixit eis et multiplicati sunt nimis et iumenta eorum non minoravit

106:39 Then they were brought to be few: and they were afflicted through the trouble of evils and sorrow.

106:39 Et pauci facti sunt et vexati sunt a tribulatione malorum et dolore

106:40 Contempt was poured forth upon their princes: and he caused them to wander where there was no passing, and out of the way.

106:40 Effusa est contemptio super principes et errare fecit eos in invio et non in via

106:41 And he helped the poor out of poverty: and made him families like a flock of sheep.

106:41 Et adiuvit pauperem de inopia et posuit sicut oves familias

106:42 The just shall see, and shall rejoice, and all iniquity shall stop their mouth.

106:42 Videbunt recti et laetabuntur et omnis iniquitas oppilabit os suum

106:43 Who is wise, and will keep these things: and will understand the mercies of the Lord?

106:43 Quis sapiens et custodiet haec et intellegent misericordias Domini
