Psalms 105
1 Give thanks to the LORD, call upon His name; make known His deeds among the nations.
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 wonders.
Sing ye to Him — sing praise to Him, Meditate ye on all His wonders.
3 Glory in His holy name; let the hearts of those who seek the LORD rejoice.
Boast yourselves in His Holy Name, The heart of those seeking Jehovah rejoiceth.
4 Seek out the LORD and His strength; seek His face always.
Seek ye Jehovah and His strength, Seek ye His face continually.
5 Remember the wonders He has done, His marvels, and the judgments He has pronounced,
Remember His wonders that He did, His signs and the judgments of His mouth.
6 O offspring of His servant Abraham, O sons 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 carry throughout the earth.
He [is] Jehovah our God, In all the earth [are] His judgments.
8 He remembers His covenant forever, the word He ordained for a thousand generations—
He hath remembered to the age His covenant, The word He commanded to a thousand generations,
9 the covenant He made with Abraham, and the oath He swore to Isaac.
That He hath made with Abraham, And His oath to Isaac,
10 He confirmed it to Jacob as a decree, to Israel as an everlasting covenant:
And doth establish it to Jacob for a statute, To Israel — a covenant age-during,
11 “I will give you the land of Canaan as the portion of your inheritance.”
Saying, 'To thee I give the land of Canaan, The portion of your inheritance,'
12 When they were few in number, few indeed, and strangers in the land,
In their being few in number, But a few, and sojourners in it.
13 they wandered from nation to nation, from one kingdom to another.
And they go up and down, from nation unto nation, From a kingdom unto another people.
14 He let no man oppress them; He rebuked kings on their behalf:
He hath not suffered any to oppress them And He reproveth for their sakes kings.
15 “Do not touch My anointed ones! Do no harm to My prophets!”
'Strike not against Mine anointed, And to My prophets do not evil.'
16 He called down famine on the land and cut off all their supplies of food.
And He calleth a famine on the land, The whole staff of bread He hath broken.
17 He sent a man before them— Joseph, sold as a slave.
He hath sent before them a man, For a servant hath Joseph been sold.
18 They bruised his feet with shackles and placed his neck in irons,
They have afflicted with fetters his feet, Iron hath entered his soul,
19 until his prediction came true and the word of the LORD proved him right.
Till the time of the coming of His word The saying of Jehovah hath tried him.
20 The king sent and released him; the ruler of peoples set him free.
The king hath sent, and looseth him, The ruler of the peoples, and draweth him out.
21 He made him master of his household, ruler over all his substance,
He hath made him lord of his house, And ruler over all his possessions.
22 to instruct his princes as he pleased and teach his elders wisdom.
To bind his chiefs at his pleasure, And his elders he maketh wise.
23 Then Israel entered Egypt; Jacob dwelt in the land of Ham.
And Israel cometh in to Egypt, And Jacob hath sojourned in the land of Ham.
24 And the LORD made His people very fruitful, more numerous than their foes,
And He maketh His people very fruitful, And maketh it mightier than its adversaries.
25 whose hearts He turned 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 His miraculous signs 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 it became dark— yet they defied His words.
He hath sent darkness, and it is dark, And they have not provoked His word.
29 He turned their waters to blood and caused their fish to die.
He hath turned their waters to blood, And putteth to death their fish.
30 Their land teemed with frogs, even in their royal chambers.
Teemed hath their land [with] frogs, In the inner chambers of their kings.
31 He spoke, and insects swarmed— gnats throughout their country.
He hath said, and the beetle cometh, Lice into all their border.
32 He gave them hail for rain, with lightning throughout their land.
He hath made their showers hail, A flaming fire [is] in their land.
33 He struck their vines and 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— young locusts without number.
He hath said, and the locust cometh, And the cankerworm — innumerable,
35 They devoured every plant in their land and consumed the produce of their soil.
And it consumeth every herb in their land, And it consumeth the fruit of their ground.
36 Then He struck all the firstborn in their land, the firstfruits of all their vigor.
And He smiteth every first-born in their land, The first-fruit of all their strength,
37 He brought Israel out with silver and gold, and none among His tribes stumbled.
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 dread of Israel had fallen on them.
Rejoiced hath Egypt in their going forth, For their fear had fallen upon them.
39 He spread a cloud as a covering and a fire to light up the night.
He hath spread a cloud for a covering, And fire to enlighten the night.
40 They asked, and He brought quail and satisfied them with the bread of heaven.
They have asked, and He bringeth quails, And [with] bread of heaven satisfieth them.
41 He opened a rock, and water gushed out; it flowed like a river in the desert.
He hath opened a rock, and waters issue, They have gone on in dry places — a river.
42 For He remembered His holy promise to Abraham His servant.
For He hath remembered His holy word, With Abraham His servant,
43 He brought forth His people with rejoicing, His chosen with shouts of joy.
And He bringeth forth His people with joy, With singing His chosen ones.
44 He gave them the lands of the nations, that they might inherit the fruit of others’ labor,
And He giveth to them the lands of nations, And the labour of peoples they possess,
45 that they might keep His statutes and obey His laws. Hallelujah!
That they may observe His statutes, And His laws may keep. Praise ye Jehovah!
