📖 Psalms 105
-
1
Prayse the Lord, and call vpon his Name: declare his workes among the people.
-
2
Sing vnto him, sing prayse vnto him, and talke of all his wonderous workes.
-
3
Reioyce in his holy Name: let the heart of them that seeke the Lord, reioyce.
-
4
Seeke the Lord and his strength: seeke his face continually.
-
5
Remember his marueilous woorkes, that he hath done, his wonders and the iudgements of his mouth,
-
6
Ye seede of Abraham his seruant, ye children of Iaakob, which are his elect.
-
7
He is the Lorde our God: his iudgements are through all the earth.
-
8
He hath alway remembred his couenant & promes, that he made to a thousand generations,
-
9
Euen that which he made with Abraham, and his othe vnto Izhak:
-
10
And since hath confirmed it to Iaakob for a lawe, and to Israel for an euerlasting couenant,
-
11
Saying, Vnto thee will I giue the land of Canaan, the lot of your inheritance.
-
12
Albeit they were fewe in nomber, yea, very fewe, and strangers in the land,
-
13
And walked about from nation to nation, from one kingdome to another people,
-
14
Yet suffered he no man to doe them wrong, but reprooued Kings for their sakes, saying,
-
15
Touche not mine anointed, and doe my Prophets no harme.
-
16
Moreouer, he called a famine vpon ye land, and vtterly brake the staffe of bread.
-
17
But he sent a man before them: Ioseph was solde for a slaue.
-
18
They helde his feete in the stockes, and he was laide in yrons,
-
19
Vntill his appointed time came, and the counsell of the Lord had tryed him.
-
20
The King sent and loosed him: euen the Ruler of the people deliuered him.
-
21
He made him lord of his house, and ruler of all his substance,
-
22
That he shoulde binde his princes vnto his will, and teach his Ancients wisedome.
-
23
Then Israel came to Egypt, and Iaakob was a stranger in the land of Ham.
-
24
And he increased his people exceedingly, and made them stronger then their oppressours.
-
25
He turned their heart to hate his people, and to deale craftily with his seruants.
-
26
Then sent he Moses his seruant, and Aaron whom he had chosen.
-
27
They shewed among them the message of his signes, and wonders in the land of Ham.
-
28
He sent darkenesse, and made it darke: and they were not disobedient vnto his commission.
-
29
He turned their waters into blood, and slewe their fish.
-
30
Their land brought foorth frogs, euen in their Kings chambers.
-
31
He spake, and there came swarmes of flies and lice in all their quarters.
-
32
He gaue them haile for raine, and flames of fire in their land.
-
33
He smote their vines also and their figge trees, and brake downe the trees in their coastes.
-
34
He spake, and the grashoppers came, and caterpillers innumerable,
-
35
And did eate vp all the grasse in their land, and deuoured the fruite of their ground.
-
36
He smote also all the first borne in their land, euen the beginning of all their strength.
-
37
He brought them forth also with siluer and golde, and there was none feeble among their tribes.
-
38
Egypt was glad at their departing: for the feare of them had fallen vpon them.
-
39
He spred a cloude to be a couering, and fire to giue light in the night.
-
40
They asked, and he brought quailes, and he filled them with the bread of heauen.
-
41
He opened the rocke, and the waters flowed out, and ranne in the drye places like a riuer.
-
42
For he remembred his holy promes to Abraham his seruant,
-
43
And he brought forth his people with ioy, and his chosen with gladnesse,
-
44
And gaue them the lands of the heathen, and they tooke the labours of the people in possession,
-
45
That they might keepe his statutes, and obserue his Lawes. Prayse ye the Lord.
