Context of Psalms 106:5
3Blessed are they that keep justice, [and] he that doeth righteousness at all times. 4Remember me, O Jehovah, with [thy] favour toward thy people; visit me with thy salvation: That I may see the prosperity of thy chosen ones, that I may rejoice in the joy of thy nation, that I may glory with thine inheritance. 6We have sinned with our fathers, we have committed iniquity, we have done wickedly. 7Our fathers in Egypt considered not thy wondrous works; they remembered not the multitude of thy loving-kindnesses; but they rebelled at the sea, at the Red Sea.
