The Rebelliousness of Israel

1061 Praise the Lord ! Oh give thanks to the Lord , for He is good ; For His lovingkindness is everlasting . 2 Who can speak of the mighty deeds of the Lord , Or can show forth all His praise ? 3 How blessed are those who keep justice , Who practice righteousness at all times ! 4 Remember me, O Lord , in Your favor toward Your people ; Visit me with Your salvation , 5 That I may see the prosperity of Your chosen ones , That I may rejoice in the gladness of Your nation , That I may glory with Your inheritance .

Matthew Henry's Commentary on Psalm 106:1-5

Commentary on Psalm 106:1-5

(Read Psalm 106:1-5)

None of our sins or sufferings should prevent our ascribing glory and praise to the Lord. The more unworthy we are, the more is his kindness to be admired. And those who depend on the Redeemer's righteousness will endeavour to copy his example, and by word and deed to show forth his praise. God's people have reason to be cheerful people; and need not envy the children of men their pleasure or pride.
