Psalm 106:5-7
New Catholic Bible
5 Let me delight in the success of your chosen ones,
share in the joy of your nation,
and glory in your heritage.
6 [a]Like our ancestors, we[b] have sinned;
we have gone astray and done evil.
7 When our ancestors were in Egypt,
they failed to be mindful of your wonders;
they did not remember your many kindnesses
and rebelled against the Most High at the Red Sea.
