Ps-105

← Psalms 104 | Psalms | Psalms 106 →


v1

Oh give thanks to the LORD; call upon his name; make known his deeds among the peoples!

v2

Sing to him, sing praises to him; tell of all his wondrous works!

v3

Glory in his holy name; let the hearts of those who seek the LORD rejoice!

v4

Seek the LORD and his strength; seek his presence continually!

v5

Remember the wondrous works that he has done, his miracles, and the judgments he uttered,

v6

O offspring of Abraham, his servant, children of Jacob, his chosen ones!

v7

He is the LORD our God; his judgments are in all the earth.

v8

He remembers his covenant forever, the word that he commanded, for a thousand generations,

v9

the covenant that he made with Abraham, his sworn promise to Isaac,

v10

which he confirmed to Jacob as a statute, to Israel as an everlasting covenant,

v11

saying, “To you I will give the land of Canaan as your portion for an inheritance.”

v12

When they were few in number, of little account, and sojourners in it,

v13

wandering from nation to nation, from one kingdom to another people,

v14

he allowed no one to oppress them; he rebuked kings on their account,

v15

saying, “Touch not my anointed ones, do my prophets no harm!“

v16

When he summoned a famine on the land and broke all supply of bread,

v17

he had sent a man ahead of them, Joseph, who was sold as a slave.

v18

His feet were hurt with fetters; his neck was put in a collar of iron;

v19

until what he had said came to pass, the word of the LORD tested him.

v20

The king sent and released him; the ruler of the peoples set him free;

v21

he made him lord of his house and ruler of all his possessions,

v22

to bind his princes at his pleasure and to teach his elders wisdom.

v23

Then Israel came to Egypt; Jacob sojourned in the land of Ham.

v24

And the LORD made his people very fruitful and made them stronger than their foes.

v25

He turned their hearts to hate his people, to deal craftily with his servants.

v26

He sent Moses, his servant, and Aaron, whom he had chosen.

v27

They performed his signs among them and miracles in the land of Ham.

v28

He sent darkness, and made the land dark; they did not rebel against his words.

v29

He turned their waters into blood and caused their fish to die.

v30

Their land swarmed with frogs, even in the chambers of their kings.

v31

He spoke, and there came swarms of flies, and gnats throughout their country.

v32

He gave them hail for rain, and fiery lightning bolts through their land.

v33

He struck down their vines and fig trees, and shattered the trees of their country.

v34

He spoke, and the locusts came, young locusts without number,

v35

which devoured all the vegetation in their land and ate up the fruit of their ground.

v36

He struck down all the firstborn in their land, the firstfruits of all their strength.

v37

Then he brought out Israel with silver and gold, and there was none among his tribes who stumbled.

v38

Egypt was glad when they departed, for dread of them had fallen upon it.

v39

He spread a cloud for a covering, and fire to give light by night.

v40

They asked, and he brought quail, and gave them bread from heaven in abundance.

v41

He opened the rock, and water gushed out; it flowed through the desert like a river.

v42

For he remembered his holy promise, and Abraham, his servant.

v43

So he brought his people out with joy, his chosen ones with singing.

v44

And he gave them the lands of the nations, and they took possession of the fruit of the peoples’ toil,

v45

that they might keep his statutes and observe his laws. Praise the LORD!
