Psalm 106:48
“Blessed be the Lord God of Israel from everlasting to everlasting: and let all the people say, Amen. Praise ye the Lord. ”
KJV
Read in Psalm 106Meaning
The doxology closes both the psalm and Book IV of the Psalter by turning confession and restoration hope back into communal praise.
Covenant mercy and the final gathering prayer
God hears affliction, remembers covenant mercy, grants compassion, and the community asks to be gathered for praise.
Read carefully
The doxology follows a detailed confession; praise does not require historical amnesia.
Reflection
Let repentance lead toward gratitude, repaired worship, and renewed faithfulness rather than endless self-condemnation.
