< Psalms 105 >

1 Give thanks to the LORD! Call on his name! Make his doings known among the peoples.
Give ye thanks to Jehovah — call ye in His name, Make known among the peoples His acts.
2 Sing to him, sing praises to him! Tell of all his marvelous works.
Sing ye to Him — sing praise to Him, Meditate ye on all His wonders.
3 Glory in his holy name. Let the heart of those who seek the LORD rejoice.
Boast yourselves in His Holy Name, The heart of those seeking Jehovah rejoiceth.
4 Seek the LORD and his strength. Seek his face forever more.
Seek ye Jehovah and His strength, Seek ye His face continually.
5 Remember his marvelous works that he has done: his wonders, and the judgments of his mouth,
Remember His wonders that He did, His signs and the judgments of His mouth.
6 you offspring of Abraham, his servant, you children of Jacob, his chosen ones.
O seed of Abraham, His servant, O sons of Jacob, His chosen ones.
7 He is the LORD, our God. His judgments are in all the earth.
He [is] Jehovah our God, In all the earth [are] His judgments.
8 He has remembered his covenant forever, the word which he commanded to a thousand generations,
He hath remembered to the age His covenant, The word He commanded to a thousand generations,
9 the covenant which he made with Abraham, his oath to Isaac,
That He hath made with Abraham, And His oath to Isaac,
10 and confirmed it to Jacob for a statute; to Israel for an everlasting covenant,
And doth establish it to Jacob for a statute, To Israel — a covenant age-during,
11 saying, “To you I will give the land of Canaan, the lot of your inheritance,”
Saying, 'To thee I give the land of Canaan, The portion of your inheritance,'
12 when they were but a few men in number, yes, very few, and foreigners in it.
In their being few in number, But a few, and sojourners in it.
13 They went about from nation to nation, from one kingdom to another people.
And they go up and down, from nation unto nation, From a kingdom unto another people.
14 He allowed no one to do them wrong. Yes, he reproved kings for their sakes,
He hath not suffered any to oppress them And He reproveth for their sakes kings.
15 “Do not touch my anointed ones! Do my prophets no harm!”
'Strike not against Mine anointed, And to My prophets do not evil.'
16 He called for a famine on the land. He destroyed the food supplies.
And He calleth a famine on the land, The whole staff of bread He hath broken.
17 He sent a man before them. Joseph was sold for a slave.
He hath sent before them a man, For a servant hath Joseph been sold.
18 They bruised his feet with shackles. His neck was locked in irons,
They have afflicted with fetters his feet, Iron hath entered his soul,
19 until the time that his word happened, and the LORD’s word proved him true.
Till the time of the coming of His word The saying of Jehovah hath tried him.
20 The king sent and freed him, even the ruler of peoples, and let him go free.
The king hath sent, and looseth him, The ruler of the peoples, and draweth him out.
21 He made him lord of his house, and ruler of all of his possessions,
He hath made him lord of his house, And ruler over all his possessions.
22 to discipline his princes at his pleasure, and to teach his elders wisdom.
To bind his chiefs at his pleasure, And his elders he maketh wise.
23 Israel also came into Egypt. Jacob lived in the land of Ham.
And Israel cometh in to Egypt, And Jacob hath sojourned in the land of Ham.
24 He increased his people greatly, and made them stronger than their adversaries.
And He maketh His people very fruitful, And maketh it mightier than its adversaries.
25 He turned their heart to hate his people, to conspire against his servants.
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.
He hath sent Moses His servant, Aaron whom He had fixed on.
27 They performed miracles among them, and wonders in the land of Ham.
They have set among them the matters of His signs, And wonders in the land of Ham.
28 He sent darkness, and made it dark. They did not rebel against his words.
He hath sent darkness, and it is dark, And they have not provoked His word.
29 He turned their waters into blood, and killed their fish.
He hath turned their waters to blood, And putteth to death their fish.
30 Their land swarmed with frogs, even in the rooms of their kings.
Teemed hath their land [with] frogs, In the inner chambers of their kings.
31 He spoke, and swarms of flies came, and lice in all their borders.
He hath said, and the beetle cometh, Lice into all their border.
32 He gave them hail for rain, with lightning in their land.
He hath made their showers hail, A flaming fire [is] in their land.
33 He struck their vines and also their fig trees, and shattered the trees of their country.
And He smiteth their vine and their fig, And shivereth the trees of their border.
34 He spoke, and the locusts came with the grasshoppers, without number.
He hath said, and the locust cometh, And the cankerworm — innumerable,
35 They ate up every plant in their land, and ate up the fruit of their ground.
And it consumeth every herb in their land, And it consumeth the fruit of their ground.
36 He struck also all the firstborn in their land, the first fruits of all their manhood.
And He smiteth every first-born in their land, The first-fruit of all their strength,
37 He brought them out with silver and gold. There was not one feeble person among his tribes.
And bringeth them out with silver and gold, And there is not in its tribes a feeble one.
38 Egypt was glad when they departed, for the fear of them had fallen on them.
Rejoiced hath Egypt in their going forth, For their fear had fallen upon them.
39 He spread a cloud for a covering, fire to give light in the night.
He hath spread a cloud for a covering, And fire to enlighten the night.
40 They asked, and he brought quails, and satisfied them with the bread of the sky.
They have asked, and He bringeth quails, And [with] bread of heaven satisfieth them.
41 He opened the rock, and waters gushed out. They ran as a river in the dry places.
He hath opened a rock, and waters issue, They have gone on in dry places — a river.
42 For he remembered his holy word, and Abraham, his servant.
For He hath remembered His holy word, With Abraham His servant,
43 He brought his people out with joy, his chosen with singing.
And He bringeth forth His people with joy, With singing His chosen ones.
44 He gave them the lands of the nations. They took the labor of the peoples in possession,
And He giveth to them the lands of nations, And the labour of peoples they possess,
45 that they might keep his statutes, and observe his laws. Praise the LORD!
That they may observe His statutes, And His laws may keep. Praise ye Jehovah!
