Pero ellos, obstinados en su actitud, Se hundían en su maldad.44Con todo, Él miraba su angustia Y oía su clamor,45Se acordaba de su pacto con ellos, Y se compadecía conforme a la multitud de sus misericordias.46Hizo que tuvieran piedad Todos los que los tenían cautivos.47Oh YHVH, Dios nuestro, sálvanos Y recógenos de entre las naciones, Para que alabemos tu santo Nombre, Para que nos gloriemos en tu alabanza.48¡Bendito sea YHVH, Dios de Israel, Desde la eternidad y hasta la eternidad! Y todo el pueblo diga: ¡Amén! ¡Aleluya!
1Praise the Lord! Oh give thanks to the Lord, for he is good, for his steadfast love endures forever! (1 Cr 16:34; 1 Cr 16:41; Sal 100:5; Sal 105:1; Sal 105:45)2Who can utter the mighty deeds of the Lord, or declare all his praise?3Blessed are they who observe justice, who do righteousness at all times! (Sal 15:2)4Remember me, O Lord, when you show favor to your people; help me when you save them,[1] (Sal 119:132)5that I may look upon the prosperity of your chosen ones, that I may rejoice in the gladness of your nation, that I may glory with your inheritance. (Sal 105:6; Sal 105:43)6Both we and our fathers have sinned; we have committed iniquity; we have done wickedness. (Lv 26:40; 1 R 8:47; Esd 9:6; Neh 1:6; Neh 9:16; Sal 79:8; Jer 3:25; Jer 14:20; Dn 9:5)7Our fathers, when they were in Egypt, did not consider your wondrous works; they did not remember the abundance of your steadfast love, but rebelled by the sea, at the Red Sea. (Ex 14:11; Sal 106:13; Sal 106:21)8Yet he saved them for his name’s sake, that he might make known his mighty power. (Ex 9:16; Ez 20:9; Ez 20:14)9He rebuked the Red Sea, and it became dry, and he led them through the deep as through a desert. (Ex 14:21; Sal 18:15; Sal 104:7; Is 50:2; Is 51:10; Is 63:13)10So he saved them from the hand of the foe and redeemed them from the power of the enemy. (Ex 14:30; Sal 107:2)11And the waters covered their adversaries; not one of them was left. (Ex 14:28; Ex 15:5)12Then they believed his words; they sang his praise. (Ex 14:31; Ex 15:1)13But they soon forgot his works; they did not wait for his counsel. (Ex 15:24; Ex 16:2; Ex 17:2; Sal 78:11; Sal 107:11)14But they had a wanton craving in the wilderness, and put God to the test in the desert; (Ex 17:2; Nm 11:4; Sal 78:18; 1 Co 10:6; 1 Co 10:9)15he gave them what they asked, but sent a wasting disease among them. (Sal 78:29; Is 10:16)16When men in the camp were jealous of Moses and Aaron, the holy one of the Lord, (Nm 16:1; Dt 33:2; Zac 14:5; Jud 1:14)17the earth opened and swallowed up Dathan, and covered the company of Abiram. (Nm 16:31; Dt 11:6)18Fire also broke out in their company; the flame burned up the wicked. (Nm 16:35)19They made a calf in Horeb and worshiped a metal image. (Ex 32:4; Dt 9:8; Hch 7:41)20They exchanged the glory of God[2] for the image of an ox that eats grass. (Jer 2:11; Ro 1:23)21They forgot God, their Savior, who had done great things in Egypt, (Dt 32:18; Sal 78:11; Sal 106:7; Sal 106:13)22wondrous works in the land of Ham, and awesome deeds by the Red Sea. (Sal 78:51; Sal 105:23; Sal 105:27)23Therefore 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. (Ex 32:10; Dt 9:14; Sal 105:6; Ez 20:8; Ez 22:30)24Then they despised the pleasant land, having no faith in his promise. (Nm 14:31; Dt 1:32; Dt 9:23; Zac 7:14)25They murmured in their tents, and did not obey the voice of the Lord. (Nm 14:2; Dt 1:27)26Therefore he raised his hand and swore to them that he would make them fall in the wilderness, (Ex 6:8; Nm 14:30; Dt 32:40; Sal 95:11; Ez 20:6; Ez 20:15; Ez 20:23)27and would make their offspring fall among the nations, scattering them among the lands. (Sal 44:11)28Then they yoked themselves to the Baal of Peor, and ate sacrifices offered to the dead; (Nm 25:3; Is 8:19; Os 9:10)29they provoked the Lord to anger with their deeds, and a plague broke out among them.30Then Phinehas stood up and intervened, and the plague was stayed. (Nm 25:7)31And that was counted to him as righteousness from generation to generation forever. (Gn 15:6; Nm 25:10)32They angered him at the waters of Meribah, and it went ill with Moses on their account, (Nm 20:2; Dt 1:37)33for they made his spirit bitter,[3] and he spoke rashly with his lips. (Nm 20:10; Sal 78:40; Sal 107:11; Is 63:10)34They did not destroy the peoples, as the Lord commanded them, (Dt 7:2; Dt 7:16; Jue 1:21; Jue 1:27; Jue 2:2)35but they mixed with the nations and learned to do as they did. (Jue 3:5; Esd 9:2)36They served their idols, which became a snare to them. (Ex 23:33; Dt 7:16; Jue 2:3)37They sacrificed their sons and their daughters to the demons; (Dt 32:17; 2 R 16:3; Is 57:5; Ez 16:20; Ez 20:26; 1 Co 10:20)38they 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. (Is 24:5)39Thus they became unclean by their acts, and played the whore in their deeds. (Sal 73:27; Ez 20:18; Ez 20:30)40Then the anger of the Lord was kindled against his people, and he abhorred his heritage; (Jue 2:14; Sal 28:9; Sal 78:59; Sal 78:62)41he gave them into the hand of the nations, so that those who hated them ruled over them. (Neh 9:27)42Their enemies oppressed them, and they were brought into subjection under their power. (Jue 4:3; Jue 10:12)43Many times he delivered them, but they were rebellious in their purposes and were brought low through their iniquity. (Lv 26:39; Jue 2:16; Sal 81:12)44Nevertheless, he looked upon their distress, when he heard their cry. (Jue 3:9; Jue 4:3; Jue 6:7; Jue 10:10)45For their sake he remembered his covenant, and relented according to the abundance of his steadfast love. (Lv 26:42; Sal 51:1; Sal 69:16; Sal 90:13; Sal 105:8; Sal 106:7; Is 63:7; Lm 3:32)46He caused them to be pitied by all those who held them captive. (1 R 8:50; 2 Cr 30:9; Esd 9:9; Neh 1:11; Jer 42:12)47Save 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. (1 Cr 16:35; Sal 107:3)48Blessed be the Lord, the God of Israel, from everlasting to everlasting! And let all the people say, “Amen!” Praise the Lord! (Sal 41:13; Sal 104:35)
