| 2 | Who can expresse the valiaunt actes of God: who can publishe abrode all his prayse? | Who can utter the mighty deeds of the LORD, or declare all his praise? | Who can proclaim the mighty acts of the LORD or fully declare his praise? | |

| 5 | That I may see the felicitie of thy chosen, that I may reioyce at the gladnes of thy people: and that I may glorie with thyne inheritaunce. | that 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. | that I may enjoy the prosperity of your chosen ones, that I may share in the joy of your nation and join your inheritance in giving praise. | |
| 6 | We haue sinned with our fathers: we haue done amisse and dealt wickedly. | Both we and our fathers have sinned; we have committed iniquity; we have done wickedness. | We have sinned, even as our ancestors did; we have done wrong and acted wickedly. | |
| 7 | Our fathers did not well consider thy wonders in Egypt, neither did they remember thy manifolde great goodnes: but they rebelled at the sea, euen at the red sea. | Our 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. | When our ancestors were in Egypt, they gave no thought to your miracles; they did not remember your many kindnesses, and they rebelled by the sea, the Red Sea. | |
| 8 | Neuerthelesse, he saued them for his names sake: that he myght make his power to be knowen. | Yet he saved them for his name’s sake, that he might make known his mighty power. | Yet he saved them for his name’s sake, to make his mighty power known. | |
| 9 | And he rebuked the red sea, and it was dryed vp: so he led them through the deepe, as through a wyldernesse. | He rebuked the Red Sea, and it became dry, and he led them through the deep as through a desert. | He rebuked the Red Sea, and it dried up; he led them through the depths as through a desert. | |
| 10 | And he saued them from the hande of suche as hated them: & redeemed them from the hande of the enemie. | So he saved them from the hand of the foe and redeemed them from the power of the enemy. | He saved them from the hand of the foe; from the hand of the enemy he redeemed them. | |
| 11 | As for their aduersaries the waters ouerwhelmed them: there was not one of them left remayning. | And the waters covered their adversaries; not one of them was left. | The waters covered their adversaries; not one of them survived. | |
| 12 | Then beleued they his wordes: and song prayse vnto him. | Then they believed his words; they sang his praise. | Then they believed his promises and sang his praise. | |
| 13 | But within a very short whyle they forgat his workes: they woulde not wayte for his counsell. | But they soon forgot his works; they did not wait for his counsel. | But they soon forgot what he had done and did not wait for his plan to unfold. | |
| 14 | And they were taken with a great lust in the wyldernesse: and they tempted God in the desert. | But they had a wanton craving in the wilderness, and put God to the test in the desert; | In the desert they gave in to their craving; in the wilderness they put God to the test. | |
| 15 | And he gaue them their desire: and sent leannes withal into their soule. | he gave them what they asked, but sent a wasting disease among them. | So he gave them what they asked for, but sent a wasting disease among them. | |

| 17 | So the earth opened and swalowed vp Dathan: and couered the company of Abiram. | the earth opened and swallowed up Dathan, and covered the company of Abiram. | The earth opened up and swallowed Dathan; it buried the company of Abiram. | |
| 18 | And the fire was kindled in their company: the flambe brent vp the vngodly. | Fire also broke out in their company; the flame burned up the wicked. | Fire blazed among their followers; a flame consumed the wicked. | |
| 19 | They made a calfe in Horeb: and worshipped the moulten image. | They made a calf in Horeb and worshiped a metal image. | At Horeb they made a calf and worshiped an idol cast from metal. | |
| 20 | Thus they turned their glory: into the similitude of a calfe that eateth hay. | They exchanged the glory of God for the image of an ox that eats grass. | They exchanged their glorious God for an image of a bull, which eats grass. | |
| 21 | They forgat God their sauiour, who had done so great thynges in Egypt: | They forgot God, their Savior, who had done great things in Egypt, | They forgot the God who saved them, who had done great things in Egypt, | |

| 27 | (106:25) to geue their seede an ouerthrowe amongst the nations, and to scatter them in sundry landes. | and would make their offspring fall among the nations, scattering them among the lands. | make their descendants fall among the nations and scatter them throughout the lands. | |
| 28 | (106:26) They ioyned them selues vnto Baal Peor: they also did eate of the sacrifices of the dead. | Then they yoked themselves to the Baal of Peor, and ate sacrifices offered to the dead; | They yoked themselves to the Baal of Peor and ate sacrifices offered to lifeless gods; | |

| 32 | (106:30) They also prouoked God at the waters of strife: and all was not well with Moyses for their sakes. | They angered him at the waters of Meribah, and it went ill with Moses on their account, | By the waters of Meribah they angered the LORD, and trouble came to Moses because of them; | |
| 33 | (106:31) For they had caused an alteration to be of his spirite: so that he spake vnaduisedly with his lippes. | for they made his spirit bitter, and he spoke rashly with his lips. | for they rebelled against the Spirit of God, and rash words came from Moses’ lips. | |
| 34 | (106:32) Moreouer, they destroyed not the Heathen: as God commaunded them. | They did not destroy the peoples, as the LORD commanded them, | They did not destroy the peoples as the LORD had commanded them, | |

| 45 | (106:43) And he remembred his couenaunt: and repented, according to the multitude of his mercies. | For their sake he remembered his covenant, and relented according to the abundance of his steadfast love. | for their sake he remembered his covenant and out of his great love he relented. | |
| 46 | (106:44) Yea he made all those that led them away captiue: to pitie them. | He caused them to be pitied by all those who held them captive. | He caused all who held them captive to show them mercy. | |
| 47 | (106:45) Saue vs O God our Lorde, and gather vs from among the Heathen: that we may geue thankes to thy holy name, and glory of thy prayse. | Save 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. | Save us, LORD our God, and gather us from the nations, that we may give thanks to your holy name and glory in your praise. | |
