Salmos, 106

1. Aleluia. Louvai o Senhor, porque ele é bom. Porque eterna é a sua misericórdia.*

1. Praise ye the LORD. O give thanks unto the LORD; for [he is] good: for his mercy [endureth] for ever.

2. Assim o dizem aqueles que o Senhor resgatou, aqueles que ele livrou das mãos do opressor,

2. Who can utter the mighty acts of the LORD? [who] can shew forth all his praise?

3. assim como os que congregou de todos os países, do oriente e do ocidente, do norte e do sul.

3. Blessed [are] they that keep judgment, [and] he that doeth righteousness at all times.

4. Erravam na solidão do deserto, sem encontrar caminho de cidade habitável.

4. Remember me, O LORD, with the favour [that thou bearest unto] thy people: O visit me with thy salvation;

5. Consumidos de fome e de sede, sentiam desfalecer-lhes a vida.

5. That I may see the good of thy chosen, that I may rejoice in the gladness of thy nation, that I may glory with thine inheritance.

6. Em sua angústia clamaram então ao Senhor, ele os livrou de suas tribulações

6. We have sinned with our fathers, we have committed iniquity, we have done wickedly.

7. e os conduziu pelo bom caminho, para chegarem a uma cidade habitável.

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. Agradeçam ao Senhor por sua bondade, e por suas grandes obras em favor dos homens,

8. Nevertheless he saved them for his name's sake, that he might make his mighty power to be known.

9. porque dessedentou a garganta sequiosa, e cumulou de bens a que tinha fome.

9. He rebuked the Red sea also, and it was dried up: so he led them through the depths, as through the wilderness.

10. Outros estavam nas trevas e na sombra da morte, prisioneiros na miséria e em ferros,

10. And he saved them from the hand of him that hated [them], and redeemed them from the hand of the enemy.

11. por se haverem revoltado contra as ordens de Deus e terem desprezado os desígnios do Altíssimo.

11. And the waters covered their enemies: there was not one of them left.

12. Pelo sofrimento lhes humilhara o coração, sucumbiam sem que ninguém os socorresse.

12. Then believed they his words; they sang his praise.

13. Em sua angústia clamaram então para o Senhor, e ele os livrou de suas tribulações.

13. They soon forgat his works; they waited not for his counsel:

14. Tirou-os das trevas e da sombra da morte, quebrou-lhes os grilhões.

14. But lusted exceedingly in the wilderness, and tempted God in the desert.

15. Agradeçam ao Senhor por sua bondade, e por suas grandes obras em favor dos homens.

15. And he gave them their request; but sent leanness into their soul.

16. Ele arrombou as portas de bronze, e despedaçou os ferrolhos de ferro.

16. They envied Moses also in the camp, [and] Aaron the saint of the LORD.

17. Outros, enfermos por causa de seu mau proceder, eram feridos por causa de seus pecados.

17. The earth opened and swallowed up Dathan, and covered the company of Abiram.

18. Todo alimento lhes causava náuseas, chegaram às portas da morte.

18. And a fire was kindled in their company; the flame burned up the wicked.

19. Em sua angústia clamaram então ao Senhor; ele os livrou de suas tribulações.

19. They made a calf in Horeb, and worshipped the molten image.

20. Enviou a sua palavra para curá-los, para os arrancar da morte.

20. Thus they changed their glory into the similitude of an ox that eateth grass.

21. Agradeçam ao Senhor por sua bondade, e por suas grandes obras em favor dos homens.

21. They forgat God their saviour, which had done great things in Egypt;

22. Ofereçam sacrifícios de ação de graças, e proclamem alegremente as suas obras.

22. Wondrous works in the land of Ham, [and] terrible things by the Red sea.

23. Os que se fizeram ao mar, para trafegar nas muitas águas,

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. foram testemunhas das obras do Senhor e de suas maravilhas no alto-mar.

24. Yea, they despised the pleasant land, they believed not his word:

25. Sua palavra levantou tremendo vento, que impeliu para o alto as suas ondas.

25. But murmured in their tents, [and] hearkened not unto the voice of the LORD.

26. Subiam até os céus, desciam aos abismos, suas almas definhavam em angústias.

26. Therefore he lifted up his hand against them, to overthrow them in the wilderness:

27. Titubeavam e cambaleavam como ébrios, e toda a sua perícia se esvaiu.

27. To overthrow their seed also among the nations, and to scatter them in the lands.

28. Em sua agonia clamaram então ao Senhor, e ele os livrou da tribulação.

28. They joined themselves also unto Baalpeor, and ate the sacrifices of the dead.

29. Transformou a tempestade em leve brisa, e as ondas do mar silenciaram.

29. Thus they provoked [him] to anger with their inventions: and the plague brake in upon them.

30. E se alegraram porque elas amainaram, e os conduziu ao desejado porto.

30. Then stood up Phinehas, and executed judgment: and [so] the plague was stayed.

31. Agradeçam eles ao Senhor por sua bondade, e por suas grandes obras em favor dos homens.

31. And that was counted unto him for righteousness unto all generations for evermore.

32. Celebrem-no na assembleia do povo, e o louvem no conselho dos anciãos.

32. They angered [him] also at the waters of strife, so that it went ill with Moses for their sakes:

33. Transformou rios em deserto, e fontes de água em terra árida.

33. Because they provoked his spirit, so that he spake unadvisedly with his lips.

34. Converteu o solo fértil em salinas, por causa da malícia de seus habitantes.

34. They did not destroy the nations, concerning whom the LORD commanded them:

35. Mudou o deserto em lençol de água, e a terra árida em abundantes fontes.

35. But were mingled among the heathen, and learned their works.

36. Aí fez habitar os esfaimados, que fundaram uma cidade para morar.

36. And they served their idols: which were a snare unto them.

37. E semearam os campos e plantaram vinhas, colhendo deles abundantes frutos.

37. Yea, they sacrificed their sons and their daughters unto devils,

38. E os abençoou: eles se multiplicaram grandemente, e lhes concedeu rebanhos numerosos.

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. Depois seu número se reduziu e caíram na miséria, sob a opressão, a desgraça e o sofrimento.

39. Thus were they defiled with their own works, and went a whoring with their own inventions.

40. Mas aquele que lança seu desprezo sobre os grandes, e os faz errar por intransitáveis desertos,

40. Therefore was the wrath of the LORD kindled against his people, insomuch that he abhorred his own inheritance.

41. [Deus] soergueu o pobre da miséria, multiplicando famílias como rebanhos.

41. And he gave them into the hand of the heathen; and they that hated them ruled over them.

42. À vista disso os justos se alegram, e toda a maldade deve fechar a boca.

42. Their enemies also oppressed them, and they were brought into subjection under their hand.

43. Quem é sábio para julgar estas coisas e compreender as misericórdias do Senhor?

43. Many times did he deliver them; but they provoked [him] with their counsel, and were brought low for their iniquity.

44.

44. Nevertheless he regarded their affliction, when he heard their cry:

45.

45. And he remembered for them his covenant, and repented according to the multitude of his mercies.

46.

46. He made them also to be pitied of all those that carried them captives.

47.

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.

48.

48. Blessed [be] the LORD God of Israel from everlasting to everlasting: and let all the people say, Amen. Praise ye the LORD.
