2 Sing vnto him, sing prayse vnto him, and talke of all his wonderous workes.
Sing unto Him, sing praises unto Him; speak ye of all His marvellous works.
3 Reioyce in his holy Name: let the heart of them that seeke the Lord, reioyce.
Glory ye in His holy name; let the heart of them rejoice that seek the LORD.
4 Seeke the Lord and his strength: seeke his face continually.
Seek ye the LORD and His strength; seek His face continually.
5 Remember his marueilous woorkes, that he hath done, his wonders and the iudgements of his mouth,
Remember His marvellous works that He hath done, His wonders, and the judgments of His mouth;
6 Ye seede of Abraham his seruant, ye children of Iaakob, which are his elect.
O ye seed of Abraham His servant, ye children of Jacob, His chosen ones.
7 He is the Lord our God: his iudgements are through all the earth.
He is the LORD our God; His judgments are in all the earth.
8 He hath alway remembred his couenant and promise, that he made to a thousand generations,
He hath remembered His covenant for ever, the word which He commanded to a thousand generations;
9 Euen that which he made with Abraham, and his othe vnto Izhak:
The covenant which He made with Abraham, and His oath unto Isaac;
10 And since hath confirmed it to Iaakob for a lawe, and to Israel for an euerlasting couenant,
And He established it unto Jacob for a statute, to Israel for an everlasting covenant;
11 Saying, Vnto thee will I giue the land of Canaan, the lot of your inheritance.
Saying: 'Unto thee will I give the land of Canaan, the lot of your inheritance.'
12 Albeit they were fewe in nomber, yea, very fewe, and strangers in the land,
When they were but a few men in number. Yea, very few, and sojourners in it,
13 And walked about from nation to nation, from one kingdome to another people,
And when they went about from nation to nation, from one kingdom to another people,
14 Yet suffered he no man to doe them wrong, but reprooued Kings for their sakes, saying,
He suffered no man to do them wrong, yea, for their sake He reproved kings:
15 Touche not mine anointed, and doe my Prophets no harme.
'Touch not Mine anointed ones, and do My prophets no harm.'
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.
He sent a man before them; Joseph was sold for a servant;
18 They helde his feete in the stockes, and he was laide in yrons,
His feet they hurt with fetters, his person was laid in iron;
19 Vntill his appointed time came, and the counsell of the Lord had tryed him.
Until the time that his word came to pass, the word of the LORD tested him.
20 The King sent and loosed him: euen the Ruler of the people deliuered him.
The king sent and loosed him; even the ruler of the peoples, and set him free.
21 He made him lord of his house, and ruler of all his substance,
He made him lord of his house, and ruler of all his possessions;
22 That he shoulde binde his princes vnto his will, and teach his Ancients wisedome.
To bind his princes at his pleasure, and teach his elders wisdom.
23 Then Israel came to Egypt, and Iaakob was a stranger in the land of Ham.

They wrought among them His manifold signs, and wonders in the land of Ham.
28 He sent darkenesse, and made it darke: and they were not disobedient vnto his commission.

41 He opened the rocke, and the waters flowed out, and ranne in the drye places like a riuer.
He opened the rock, and waters gushed out; they ran, a river in the dry places.
42 For he remembred his holy promise to Abraham his seruant,
For He remembered His holy word unto Abraham His servant;
43 And he brought forth his people with ioy, and his chosen with gladnesse,
And He brought forth His people with joy, His chosen ones with singing.
44 And gaue them the lands of the heathen, and they tooke the labours of the people in possession,
And He gave them the lands of the nations, and they took the labour of the peoples in possession;
45 That they might keepe his statutes, and obserue his Lawes. Prayse ye the Lord.
That they might keep His statutes, and observe His laws. Hallelujah.
