Psalms
105-108
Psa
105:1 Give thanks to Yahweh! Call on his name! Make his doings known
among the peoples.
Psa
105:2 Sing to him, sing praises to him! Tell of all his marvelous
works.
Psa
105:3 Glory in his holy name. Let the heart of those who seek Yahweh
rejoice.
Psa
105:4 Seek Yahweh and his strength. Seek his face forever more.
Psa
105:5 Remember his marvelous works that he has done; his wonders,
and the judgments of his mouth,
Psa
105:6 you seed of Abraham, his servant, you children of Jacob, his
chosen ones.
Psa
105:7 He is Yahweh, our God. His judgments are in all the earth.
Psa
105:8 He has remembered his covenant forever, the word which he
commanded to a thousand generations,
Psa
105:9 the covenant which he made with Abraham, his oath to Isaac,
Psa
105:10 and confirmed the same to Jacob for a statute; to Israel for
an everlasting covenant,
Psa
105:11 saying, "To you I will give the land of Canaan, the lot
of your inheritance;"
Psa
105:12 when they were but a few men in number, yes, very few, and
foreigners in it.
Psa
105:13 They went about from nation to nation, from one kingdom to
another people.
Psa
105:14 He allowed no one to do them wrong. Yes, he reproved kings
for their sakes,
Psa
105:15 "Don't touch my anointed ones! Do my prophets no harm!"
Psa
105:16 He called for a famine on the land. He destroyed the food
supplies.
Psa
105:17 He sent a man before them. Joseph was sold for a slave.
Psa
105:18 They bruised his feet with shackles. His neck was locked in
irons,
Psa
105:19 until the time that his word happened, and Yahweh's word
proved him true.
Psa
105:20 The king sent and freed him; even the ruler of peoples, and
let him go free.
Psa
105:21 He made him lord of his house, and ruler of all of his
possessions;
Psa
105:22 to discipline his princes at his pleasure, and to teach his
elders wisdom.
Psa
105:23 Israel also came into Egypt. Jacob sojourned in the land of
Ham.
Psa
105:24 He increased his people greatly, and made them stronger than
their adversaries.
Psa
105:25 He turned their heart to hate his people, to conspire against
his servants.
Psa
105:26 He sent Moses, his servant, and Aaron, whom he had chosen.
Psa
105:27 They performed miracles among them, and wonders in the land
of Ham.
Psa
105:28 He sent darkness, and made it dark. They didn't rebel against
his words.
Psa
105:29 He turned their waters into blood, and killed their fish.
Psa
105:30 Their land swarmed with frogs, even in the chambers of their
kings.
Psa
105:31 He spoke, and swarms of flies came, and lice in all their
borders.
Psa
105:32 He gave them hail for rain, with lightning in their land.
Psa
105:33 He struck their vines and also their fig trees, and shattered
the trees of their country.
Psa
105:34 He spoke, and the locusts came, and the grasshoppers, without
number,
Psa
105:35 ate up every plant in their land; and ate up the fruit of
their ground.
Psa
105:36 He struck also all the firstborn in their land, the first
fruits of all their manhood.
Psa
105:37 He brought them forth with silver and gold. There was not one
feeble person among his tribes.
Psa
105:38 Egypt was glad when they departed, for the fear of them had
fallen on them.
Psa
105:39 He spread a cloud for a covering, fire to give light in the
night.
Psa
105:40 They asked, and he brought quails, and satisfied them with
the bread of the sky.
Psa
105:41 He opened the rock, and waters gushed out. They ran as a
river in the dry places.
Psa
105:42 For he remembered his holy word, and Abraham, his servant.
Psa
105:43 He brought forth his people with joy, his chosen with
singing.
Psa
105:44 He gave them the lands of the nations. They took the labor of
the peoples in possession,
Psa
105:45 that they might keep his statutes, and observe his laws.
Praise Yah!
Psa
106:1 Praise Yahweh! Give thanks to Yahweh, for he is good, for his
loving kindness endures forever.
Psa
106:2 Who can utter the mighty acts of Yahweh, or fully declare all
his praise?
Psa
106:3 Blessed are those who keep justice. Blessed is one who does
what is right at all times.
Psa
106:4 Remember me, Yahweh, with the favor that you show to your
people. Visit me with your salvation,
Psa
106:5 that I may see the prosperity of your chosen, that I may
rejoice in the gladness of your nation, that I may glory with your
inheritance.
Psa
106:6 We have sinned with our fathers. We have committed iniquity.
We have done wickedly.
Psa
106:7 Our fathers didn't understand your wonders in Egypt. They
didn't remember the multitude of your loving kindnesses, but were
rebellious at the sea, even at the Red Sea.
Psa
106:8 Nevertheless he saved them for his name's sake, that he might
make his mighty power known.
Psa
106:9 He rebuked the Red Sea also, and it was dried up; so he led
them through the depths, as through a desert.
Psa
106:10 He saved them from the hand of him who hated them, and
redeemed them from the hand of the enemy.
Psa
106:11 The waters covered their adversaries. There was not one of
them left.
Psa
106:12 Then they believed his words. They sang his praise.
Psa
106:13 They soon forgot his works. They didn't wait for his counsel,
Psa
106:14 but gave in to craving in the desert, and tested God in the
wasteland.
Psa
106:15 He gave them their request, but sent leanness into their
soul.
Psa
106:16 They envied Moses also in the camp, and Aaron, Yahweh's
saint.
Psa
106:17 The earth opened and swallowed up Dathan, and covered the
company of Abiram.
Psa
106:18 A fire was kindled in their company. The flame burned up the
wicked.
Psa
106:19 They made a calf in Horeb, and worshiped a molten image.
Psa
106:20 Thus they exchanged their glory for an image of a bull that
eats grass.
Psa
106:21 They forgot God, their Savior, who had done great things in
Egypt,
Psa
106:22 Wondrous works in the land of Ham, and awesome things by the
Red Sea.
Psa
106:23 Therefore he said that he would destroy them, had Moses, his
chosen, not stood before him in the breach, to turn away his wrath,
so that he wouldn't destroy them.
Psa
106:24 Yes, they despised the pleasant land. They didn't believe his
word,
Psa
106:25 but murmured in their tents, and didn't listen to Yahweh's
voice.
Psa
106:26 Therefore he swore to them that he would overthrow them in
the wilderness,
Psa
106:27 that he would overthrow their seed among the nations, and
scatter them in the lands.
Psa
106:28 They joined themselves also to Baal Peor, and ate the
sacrifices of the dead.
Psa
106:29 Thus they provoked him to anger with their deeds. The plague
broke in on them.
Psa
106:30 Then Phinehas stood up, and executed judgment, so the plague
was stopped.
Psa
106:31 That was credited to him for righteousness, for all
generations to come.
Psa
106:32 They angered him also at the waters of Meribah, so that Moses
was troubled for their sakes;
Psa
106:33 because they were rebellious against his spirit, he spoke
rashly with his lips.
Psa
106:34 They didn't destroy the peoples, as Yahweh commanded them,
Psa
106:35 but mixed themselves with the nations, and learned their
works.
Psa
106:36 They served their idols, which became a snare to them.
Psa
106:37 Yes, they sacrificed their sons and their daughters to
demons.
Psa
106:38 They shed innocent blood, even the blood of their sons and of
their daughters, whom they sacrificed to the idols of Canaan. The
land was polluted with blood.
Psa
106:39 Thus were they defiled with their works, and prostituted
themselves in their deeds.
Psa
106:40 Therefore Yahweh burned with anger against his people. He
abhorred his inheritance.
Psa
106:41 He gave them into the hand of the nations. Those who hated
them ruled over them.
Psa
106:42 Their enemies also oppressed them. They were brought into
subjection under their hand.
Psa
106:43 Many times he delivered them, but they were rebellious in
their counsel, and were brought low in their iniquity.
Psa
106:44 Nevertheless he regarded their distress, when he heard their
cry.
Psa
106:45 He remembered for them his covenant, and repented according
to the multitude of his loving kindnesses.
Psa
106:46 He made them also to be pitied by all those who carried them
captive.
Psa
106:47 Save us, Yahweh, our God, gather us from among the nations,
to give thanks to your holy name, to triumph in your praise!
Psa
106:48 Blessed be Yahweh, the God of Israel, from everlasting even
to everlasting! Let all the people say, "Amen." Praise Yah!
Psa
107:1 Give thanks to Yahweh, for he is good, for his loving kindness
endures forever.
Psa
107:2 Let the redeemed by Yahweh say so, whom he has redeemed from
the hand of the adversary,
Psa
107:3 And gathered out of the lands, from the east and from the
west, from the north and from the south.
Psa
107:4 They wandered in the wilderness in a desert way. They found no
city to live in.
Psa
107:5 Hungry and thirsty, their soul fainted in them.
Psa
107:6 Then they cried to Yahweh in their trouble, and he delivered
them out of their distresses,
Psa
107:7 he led them also by a straight way, that they might go to a
city to live in.
Psa
107:8 Let them praise Yahweh for his loving kindness, for his
wonderful works to the children of men!
Psa
107:9 For he satisfies the longing soul. He fills the hungry soul
with good.
Psa
107:10 Some sat in darkness and in the shadow of death, being bound
in affliction and iron,
Psa
107:11 because they rebelled against the words of God, and condemned
the counsel of the Most High.
Psa
107:12 Therefore he brought down their heart with labor. They fell
down, and there was none to help.
Psa
107:13 Then they cried to Yahweh in their trouble, and he saved them
out of their distresses.
Psa
107:14 He brought them out of darkness and the shadow of death, and
broke their bonds in sunder.
Psa
107:15 Let them praise Yahweh for his loving kindness, for his
wonderful works to the children of men!
Psa
107:16 For he has broken the gates of brass, and cut through bars of
iron.
Psa
107:17 Fools are afflicted because of their disobedience, and
because of their iniquities.
Psa
107:18 Their soul abhors all kinds of food. They draw near to the
gates of death.
Psa
107:19 Then they cry to Yahweh in their trouble, he saves them out
of their distresses.
Psa
107:20 He sends his word, and heals them, and delivers them from
their graves.
Psa
107:21 Let them praise Yahweh for his loving kindness, for his
wonderful works to the children of men!
Psa
107:22 Let them offer the sacrifices of thanksgiving, and declare
his works with singing.
Psa
107:23 Those who go down to the sea in ships, who do business in
great waters;
Psa
107:24 These see Yahweh's works, and his wonders in the deep.
Psa
107:25 For he commands, and raises the stormy wind, which lifts up
its waves.
Psa
107:26 They mount up to the sky; they go down again to the depths.
Their soul melts away because of trouble.
Psa
107:27 They reel back and forth, and stagger like a drunken man, and
are at their wits' end.
Psa
107:28 Then they cry to Yahweh in their trouble, and he brings them
out of their distress.
Psa
107:29 He makes the storm a calm, so that its waves are still.
Psa
107:30 Then they are glad because it is calm, so he brings them to
their desired haven.
Psa
107:31 Let them praise Yahweh for his loving kindness, for his
wonderful works for the children of men!
Psa
107:32 Let them exalt him also in the assembly of the people, and
praise him in the seat of the elders.
Psa
107:33 He turns rivers into a desert, water springs into a thirsty
ground,
Psa
107:34 and a fruitful land into a salt waste, for the wickedness of
those who dwell in it.
Psa
107:35 He turns a desert into a pool of water, and a dry land into
water springs.
Psa
107:36 There he makes the hungry live, that they may prepare a city
to live in,
Psa
107:37 sow fields, plant vineyards, and reap the fruits of increase.
Psa
107:38 He blesses them also, so that they are multiplied greatly. He
doesn't allow their livestock to decrease.
Psa
107:39 Again, they are diminished and bowed down through oppression,
trouble, and sorrow.
Psa
107:40 He pours contempt on princes, and causes them to wander in a
trackless waste.
Psa
107:41 Yet he lifts the needy out of their affliction, and increases
their families like a flock.
Psa
107:42 The upright will see it, and be glad. All the wicked will
shut their mouths.
Psa
107:43 Whoever is wise will pay attention to these things. They will
consider the loving kindnesses of Yahweh.
Psa
108:1 My heart is steadfast, God. I will sing and I will make music
with my soul.
Psa
108:2 Wake up, harp and lyre! I will wake up the dawn.
Psa
108:3 I will give thanks to you, Yahweh, among the nations. I will
sing praises to you among the peoples.
Psa
108:4 For your loving kindness is great above the heavens. Your
faithfulness reaches to the skies.
Psa
108:5 Be exalted, God, above the heavens! Let your glory be over all
the earth.
Psa
108:6 That your beloved may be delivered, save with your right hand,
and answer us.
Psa
108:7 God has spoken from his sanctuary: "In triumph, I will
divide Shechem, and measure out the valley of Succoth.
Psa
108:8 Gilead is mine. Manasseh is mine. Ephraim also is my helmet.
Judah is my scepter.
Psa
108:9 Moab is my wash pot. I will toss my sandal on Edom. I will
shout over Philistia."
Psa
108:10 Who will bring me into the fortified city? Who has led me to
Edom?
Psa
108:11 Haven't you rejected us, God? You don't go forth, God, with
our armies.
Psa
108:12 Give us help against the enemy, for the help of man is vain.
Psa
108:13 Through God, we will do valiantly. For it is he who will
tread down our enemies.

The
Composite
Bible
is
a effort to understand the Bible by considering it from different
perspectives and different levels of literalcy. First, read the
World English Bible (the least literal-black
text)
for comprehension of the text. Next, read both the World English
Bible with the Darby Translation (more literal-blue
text)to
make comparisons and lastly, read all three versions (Young's is the
most literal translation-
red text)
at one time to obtain an overview of the text. Doing this will make
you think about what
the
Scriptures are actually saying and avoid reading in a superficial
manner.

The
Composite
Bible
is
a effort to understand the Bible by considering it from different
perspectives and different levels of literalcy. First, read the
World English Bible (the least literal-black
text)
for comprehension of the text. Next, read both the World English
Bible with the Darby Translation (more literal-blue
text)to
make comparisons and lastly, read all three versions (Young's is the
most literal translation-
red text)
at one time to obtain an overview of the text. Doing this will make
you think about what
the
Scriptures are actually saying and avoid reading in a superficial
manner.
