105:1 Oh give thanks to the LORD, call upon His name; Make known His deeds among the peoples. 105:2 Sing to Him, sing praises to Him; Speak of all His wonders. 105:3 Glory in His holy name; Let the heart of those who seek the LORD be glad. 105:4 Seek the LORD and His strength; Seek His face continually. 105:5 Remember His wonders which He has done, His marvels, and the judgments uttered by His mouth, 105:6 O seed of Abraham, His servant, O sons of Jacob, His chosen ones! 105:7 He is the LORD our God; His judgments are in all the earth. 105:8 He has remembered His covenant forever, The word which He commanded to a thousand generations, 105:9 [The] [covenant] which He made with Abraham, And His oath to Isaac. 105:10 Then He confirmed it to Jacob for a statute, To Israel as an everlasting covenant, 105:11 Saying, "To you I will give the land of Canaan As the portion of your inheritance," 105:12 When they were only a few men in number, Very few, and strangers in it. 105:13 And they wandered about from nation to nation, From [one] kingdom to another people. 105:14 He permitted no man to oppress them, And He reproved kings for their sakes: 105:15 "Do not touch My anointed ones, And do My prophets no harm." 105:16 And He called for a famine upon the land; He broke the whole staff of bread. 105:17 He sent a man before them, Joseph, [who] was sold as a slave. 105:18 They afflicted his feet with fetters, He himself was laid in irons; 105:19 Until the time that his word came to pass, The word of the LORD tested him. 105:20 The king sent and released him, The ruler of peoples, and set him free. 105:21 He made him lord of his house, And ruler over all his possessions, 105:22 To imprison his princes at will, That he might teach his elders wisdom. 105:23 Israel also came into Egypt; Thus Jacob sojourned in the land of Ham. 105:24 And He caused His people to be very fruitful, And made them stronger than their adversaries. 105:25 He turned their heart to hate His people, To deal craftily with His servants. 105:26 He sent Moses His servant, [And] Aaron whom He had chosen. 105:27 They performed His wondrous acts among them, And miracles in the land of Ham. 105:28 He sent darkness and made [it] dark; And they did not rebel against His words. 105:29 He turned their waters into blood, And caused their fish to die. 105:30 Their land swarmed with frogs [Even] in the chambers of their kings. 105:31 He spoke, and there came a swarm of flies [And] gnats in all their territory. 105:32 He gave them hail for rain, [And] flaming fire in their land. 105:33 He struck down their vines also and their fig trees, And shattered the trees of their territory. 105:34 He spoke, and locusts came, And young locusts, even without number, 105:35 And ate up all vegetation in their land, And ate up the fruit of their ground. 105:36 He also struck down all the first-born in their land, The first fruits of all their vigor. 105:37 Then He brought them out with silver and gold; And among His tribes there was not one who stumbled. 105:38 Egypt was glad when they departed; For the dread of them had fallen upon them. 105:39 He spread a cloud for a covering, And fire to illumine by night. 105:40 They asked, and He brought quail, And satisfied them with the bread of heaven. 105:41 He opened the rock, and water flowed out; It ran in the dry places [like] a river. 105:42 For He remembered His holy word [With] Abraham His servant; 105:43 And He brought forth His people with joy, His chosen ones with a joyful shout. 105:44 He gave them also the lands of the nations, That they might take possession of [the fruit of] the peoples' labor, 105:45 So that they might keep His statutes, And observe His laws, Praise the LORD!
