Psalms 105
1 Give the Lord thanks, worship his wonderful nature, let people know what he's done!
αλληλουια ἐξομολογεῖσθε τῷ κυρίῳ καὶ ἐπικαλεῖσθε τὸ ὄνομα αὐτοῦ ἀπαγγείλατε ἐν τοῖς ἔθνεσιν τὰ ἔργα αὐτοῦ
2 Sing to him, sing his praises; tell everyone the great things he's done!
ᾄσατε αὐτῷ καὶ ψάλατε αὐτῷ διηγήσασθε πάντα τὰ θαυμάσια αὐτοῦ
3 Be proud of his holy character; be happy, all who come to the Lord!
ἐπαινεῖσθε ἐν τῷ ὀνόματι τῷ ἁγίῳ αὐτοῦ εὐφρανθήτω καρδία ζητούντων τὸν κύριον
4 Look for the Lord, and his strength; always look to be in his presence.
ζητήσατε τὸν κύριον καὶ κραταιώθητε ζητήσατε τὸ πρόσωπον αὐτοῦ διὰ παντός
5 Remember all the wonderful things he's done, the miracles he's performed, and the judgments he's carried out,
μνήσθητε τῶν θαυμασίων αὐτοῦ ὧν ἐποίησεν τὰ τέρατα αὐτοῦ καὶ τὰ κρίματα τοῦ στόματος αὐτοῦ
6 descendants of Abraham, children of Israel, his chosen people.
σπέρμα Αβρααμ δοῦλοι αὐτοῦ υἱοὶ Ιακωβ ἐκλεκτοὶ αὐτοῦ
7 He is the Lord, our God, his judgments cover the whole earth.
αὐτὸς κύριος ὁ θεὸς ἡμῶν ἐν πάσῃ τῇ γῇ τὰ κρίματα αὐτοῦ
8 He remembers his agreement forever, the promise he made lasts for a thousand generations;
ἐμνήσθη εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα διαθήκης αὐτοῦ λόγου οὗ ἐνετείλατο εἰς χιλίας γενεάς
9 the agreement he made with Abraham, the vow he gave to Isaac.
ὃν διέθετο τῷ Αβρααμ καὶ τοῦ ὅρκου αὐτοῦ τῷ Ισαακ
10 The Lord legally confirmed it with Jacob, he made this binding agreement with Israel:
καὶ ἔστησεν αὐτὴν τῷ Ιακωβ εἰς πρόσταγμα καὶ τῷ Ισραηλ διαθήκην αἰώνιον
11 saying to you, “I will give the land of Canaan for you to possess.”
λέγων σοὶ δώσω τὴν γῆν Χανααν σχοίνισμα κληρονομίας ὑμῶν
12 He said this when they were only a few, just a small group of foreigners in the land.
ἐν τῷ εἶναι αὐτοὺς ἀριθμῷ βραχεῖς ὀλιγοστοὺς καὶ παροίκους ἐν αὐτῇ
13 They wandered from country to country, from one kingdom to the next.
καὶ διῆλθον ἐξ ἔθνους εἰς ἔθνος ἐκ βασιλείας εἰς λαὸν ἕτερον
14 He didn't let anyone one treat them badly; warning kings to leave them alone:
οὐκ ἀφῆκεν ἄνθρωπον ἀδικῆσαι αὐτοὺς καὶ ἤλεγξεν ὑπὲρ αὐτῶν βασιλεῖς
15 “Don't touch my chosen people; don't harm my prophets!”
μὴ ἅπτεσθε τῶν χριστῶν μου καὶ ἐν τοῖς προφήταις μου μὴ πονηρεύεσθε
16 He caused a famine in the Land of Canaan so that there was no food.
καὶ ἐκάλεσεν λιμὸν ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν πᾶν στήριγμα ἄρτου συνέτριψεν
17 Before that he sent a man, Joseph, who was sold as a slave.
ἀπέστειλεν ἔμπροσθεν αὐτῶν ἄνθρωπον εἰς δοῦλον ἐπράθη Ιωσηφ
18 They hurt his feet by placing them in shackles, and they put an iron collar around his neck,
ἐταπείνωσαν ἐν πέδαις τοὺς πόδας αὐτοῦ σίδηρον διῆλθεν ἡ ψυχὴ αὐτοῦ
19 until the time predicted came when the Lord tested him.
μέχρι τοῦ ἐλθεῖν τὸν λόγον αὐτοῦ τὸ λόγιον κυρίου ἐπύρωσεν αὐτόν
20 The king sent for him and released him; the king of the people set him free.
ἀπέστειλεν βασιλεὺς καὶ ἔλυσεν αὐτόν ἄρχων λαῶν καὶ ἀφῆκεν αὐτόν
21 He put Joseph in charge of the royal household, manager of everything he had,
κατέστησεν αὐτὸν κύριον τοῦ οἴκου αὐτοῦ καὶ ἄρχοντα πάσης τῆς κτήσεως αὐτοῦ
22 to teach the king's officials whatever he wanted, to make the king's advisors wise.
τοῦ παιδεῦσαι τοὺς ἄρχοντας αὐτοῦ ὡς ἑαυτὸν καὶ τοὺς πρεσβυτέρους αὐτοῦ σοφίσαι
23 Then Israel entered Egypt—Jacob settled as a foreigner in the land of Ham.
καὶ εἰσῆλθεν Ισραηλ εἰς Αἴγυπτον καὶ Ιακωβ παρῴκησεν ἐν γῇ Χαμ
24 The Lord made his people more fertile and more powerful than their enemies.
καὶ ηὔξησεν τὸν λαὸν αὐτοῦ σφόδρα καὶ ἐκραταίωσεν αὐτὸν ὑπὲρ τοὺς ἐχθροὺς αὐτοῦ
25 He made the Egyptians change their minds and hate his people and act deceptively towards them.
μετέστρεψεν τὴν καρδίαν αὐτῶν τοῦ μισῆσαι τὸν λαὸν αὐτοῦ τοῦ δολιοῦσθαι ἐν τοῖς δούλοις αὐτοῦ
26 He sent his servant Moses, together with Aaron, whom he had chosen.
ἐξαπέστειλεν Μωυσῆν τὸν δοῦλον αὐτοῦ Ααρων ὃν ἐξελέξατο αὐτόν
27 They carried out his miraculous signs among the Egyptians, his wonders in the land of Ham.
ἔθετο ἐν αὐτοῖς τοὺς λόγους τῶν σημείων αὐτοῦ καὶ τῶν τεράτων ἐν γῇ Χαμ
28 He plunged the country into darkness—for hadn't they defied what the Lord had said?
ἐξαπέστειλεν σκότος καὶ ἐσκότασεν καὶ παρεπίκραναν τοὺς λόγους αὐτοῦ
29 He turned their water into blood, killing all the fish.
μετέστρεψεν τὰ ὕδατα αὐτῶν εἰς αἷμα καὶ ἀπέκτεινεν τοὺς ἰχθύας αὐτῶν
30 Then he sent a plague of frogs across the land that even entered the bedrooms of their rulers.
ἐξῆρψεν ἡ γῆ αὐτῶν βατράχους ἐν τοῖς ταμιείοις τῶν βασιλέων αὐτῶν
31 He gave the command, and flies spread throughout their land; mosquitoes were everywhere.
εἶπεν καὶ ἦλθεν κυνόμυια καὶ σκνῖπες ἐν πᾶσι τοῖς ὁρίοις αὐτῶν
32 He rained down hail on them, and lightning flashed across their land.
ἔθετο τὰς βροχὰς αὐτῶν χάλαζαν πῦρ καταφλέγον ἐν τῇ γῇ αὐτῶν
33 He struck down their grape vines, and tore down their trees.
καὶ ἐπάταξεν τὰς ἀμπέλους αὐτῶν καὶ τὰς συκᾶς αὐτῶν καὶ συνέτριψεν πᾶν ξύλον ὁρίου αὐτῶν
34 He gave the command, and swarms of locusts came—countless locusts:
εἶπεν καὶ ἦλθεν ἀκρὶς καὶ βροῦχος οὗ οὐκ ἦν ἀριθμός
35 they ate up all the vegetation in their land; they consumed all the growing crops.
καὶ κατέφαγεν πάντα τὸν χόρτον ἐν τῇ γῇ αὐτῶν καὶ κατέφαγεν τὸν καρπὸν τῆς γῆς αὐτῶν
36 He killed all the firstborn in Egypt, the first to be produced in their vigor and strength.
καὶ ἐπάταξεν πᾶν πρωτότοκον ἐν τῇ γῇ αὐτῶν ἀπαρχὴν παντὸς πόνου αὐτῶν
37 Then he led his people out of Egypt, carrying silver and gold—not one among the tribes was stumbling along.
καὶ ἐξήγαγεν αὐτοὺς ἐν ἀργυρίῳ καὶ χρυσίῳ καὶ οὐκ ἦν ἐν ταῖς φυλαῖς αὐτῶν ἀσθενῶν
38 The Egyptians were delighted to see them go, for they were frightened of the Israelites.
εὐφράνθη Αἴγυπτος ἐν τῇ ἐξόδῳ αὐτῶν ὅτι ἐπέπεσεν ὁ φόβος αὐτῶν ἐπ’ αὐτούς
39 He spread a cloud above them as a covering, and at night a fire to give them light.
διεπέτασεν νεφέλην εἰς σκέπην αὐτοῖς καὶ πῦρ τοῦ φωτίσαι αὐτοῖς τὴν νύκτα
40 He gave them quails to eat when they asked him; he fed them with the bread of heaven until they were full.
ᾔτησαν καὶ ἦλθεν ὀρτυγομήτρα καὶ ἄρτον οὐρανοῦ ἐνέπλησεν αὐτούς
41 He split the rock open, and water gushed out—a river flowing through the desert.
διέρρηξεν πέτραν καὶ ἐρρύησαν ὕδατα ἐπορεύθησαν ἐν ἀνύδροις ποταμοί
42 For he remembered his holy promise to his servant Abraham.
ὅτι ἐμνήσθη τοῦ λόγου τοῦ ἁγίου αὐτοῦ τοῦ πρὸς Αβρααμ τὸν δοῦλον αὐτοῦ
43 So he led his people out, his chosen ones, as they sang for joy.
καὶ ἐξήγαγεν τὸν λαὸν αὐτοῦ ἐν ἀγαλλιάσει καὶ τοὺς ἐκλεκτοὺς αὐτοῦ ἐν εὐφροσύνῃ
44 He gave them the lands of the heathen nations, and they inherited what other people had worked for.
καὶ ἔδωκεν αὐτοῖς χώρας ἐθνῶν καὶ πόνους λαῶν ἐκληρονόμησαν
45 The Lord did this so they could follow his instructions and keep his laws. Praise the Lord!
ὅπως ἂν φυλάξωσιν τὰ δικαιώματα αὐτοῦ καὶ τὸν νόμον αὐτοῦ ἐκζητήσωσιν
