Psalm 106:40-48 NIRV

Psalm 106:40-48

So the Lord became angry with his people.

He turned away from his own children.

He handed them over to the nations.

Their enemies ruled over them.

Their enemies treated them badly

and kept them under their power.

Many times the Lord saved them.

But they refused to obey him.

So he destroyed them because of their sins.

Yet he heard them when they cried out.

He paid special attention to their suffering.

Because they were his people, he remembered his covenant.

Because of his great love, he felt sorry for them.

He made all those who held them as prisoners

have mercy on them.

Lord our God, save us.

Bring us back from among the nations.

Then we will give thanks to you, because your name is holy.

We will celebrate by praising you.

Give praise to the Lord, the God of Israel,

for ever and ever.

Let all the people say, “Amen!”

Praise the Lord.
