📖 Psalms 105
-
1
Give thanks to Yahweh! Call on his name! Make his doings known among the peoples.
-
2
Sing to him, sing praises to him! Tell of all his marvelous works.
-
3
Glory in his holy name. Let the heart of those who seek Yahweh rejoice.
-
4
Seek Yahweh and his strength. Seek his face forever more.
-
5
Remember his marvelous works that he has done; his wonders, and the judgments of his mouth,
-
6
you seed of Abraham, his servant, you children of Jacob, his chosen ones.
-
7
He is Yahweh, our God. His judgments are in all the earth.
-
8
He has remembered his covenant forever, the word which he commanded to a thousand generations,
-
9
the covenant which he made with Abraham, his oath to Isaac,
-
10
and confirmed the same to Jacob for a statute; to Israel for an everlasting covenant,
-
11
saying, "To you I will give the land of Canaan, the lot of your inheritance;"
-
12
when they were but a few men in number, yes, very few, and foreigners in it.
-
13
They went about from nation to nation, from one kingdom to another people.
-
14
He allowed no one to do them wrong. Yes, he reproved kings for their sakes,
-
15
"Don't touch my anointed ones! Do my prophets no harm!"
-
16
He called for a famine on the land. He destroyed the food supplies.
-
17
He sent a man before them. Joseph was sold for a slave.
-
18
They bruised his feet with shackles. His neck was locked in irons,
-
19
until the time that his word happened, and Yahweh's word proved him true.
-
20
The king sent and freed him; even the ruler of peoples, and let him go free.
-
21
He made him lord of his house, and ruler of all of his possessions;
-
22
to discipline his princes at his pleasure, and to teach his elders wisdom.
-
23
Israel also came into Egypt. Jacob lived in the land of Ham.
-
24
He increased his people greatly, and made them stronger than their adversaries.
-
25
He turned their heart to hate his people, to conspire against his servants.
-
26
He sent Moses, his servant, and Aaron, whom he had chosen.
-
27
They performed miracles among them, and wonders in the land of Ham.
-
28
He sent darkness, and made it dark. They didn't rebel against his words.
-
29
He turned their waters into blood, and killed their fish.
-
30
Their land swarmed with frogs, even in the rooms of their kings.
-
31
He spoke, and swarms of flies came, and lice in all their borders.
-
32
He gave them hail for rain, with lightning in their land.
-
33
He struck their vines and also their fig trees, and shattered the trees of their country.
-
34
He spoke, and the locusts came, and the grasshoppers, without number,
-
35
ate up every plant in their land; and ate up the fruit of their ground.
-
36
He struck also all the firstborn in their land, the first fruits of all their manhood.
-
37
He brought them forth with silver and gold. There was not one feeble person among his tribes.
-
38
Egypt was glad when they departed, for the fear of them had fallen on them.
-
39
He spread a cloud for a covering, fire to give light in the night.
-
40
They asked, and he brought quails, and satisfied them with the bread of the sky.
-
41
He opened the rock, and waters gushed out. They ran as a river in the dry places.
-
42
For he remembered his holy word, and Abraham, his servant.
-
43
He brought forth his people with joy, his chosen with singing.
-
44
He gave them the lands of the nations. They took the labor of the peoples in possession,
-
45
that they might keep his statutes, and observe his laws. Praise Yah!
