< Psalms 105 >

1 Praise the Lord, and call vpon his Name: declare his workes among the people.
Give thanks to YHWH—call on His Name, Make His acts known among the peoples.
2 Sing vnto him, sing prayse vnto him, and talke of all his wonderous workes.
Sing to Him—sing praise to Him, Meditate on all His wonders.
3 Reioyce in his holy Name: let the heart of them that seeke the Lord, reioyce.
Boast yourselves in His Holy Name, The heart of those seeking YHWH rejoices.
4 Seeke the Lord and his strength: seeke his face continually.
Seek YHWH 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 wonders that He did, His signs and the judgments of His mouth.
6 Ye seede of Abraham his seruant, ye children of Iaakob, which are his elect.
O seed of Abraham, His servant, O sons of Jacob, His chosen ones.
7 He is the Lord our God: his iudgements are through all the earth.
He [is] our God YHWH, His judgments [are] in all the earth.
8 He hath alway remembred his couenant and promise, that he made to a thousand generations,
He has remembered His covenant for all time, The word He commanded to one thousand generations,
9 Euen that which he made with Abraham, and his othe vnto Izhak:
That He has made with Abraham, And His oath to Isaac,
10 And since hath confirmed it to Iaakob for a lawe, and to Israel for an euerlasting couenant,
And establishes it to Jacob for a statute, To Israel—a perpetual covenant,
11 Saying, Vnto thee will I giue the land of Canaan, the lot of your inheritance.
Saying, “I give the land of Canaan to you, The portion of your inheritance,”
12 Albeit they were fewe in nomber, yea, very fewe, and strangers in the land,
In their being few in number, But a few, and sojourners in it.
13 And walked about from nation to nation, from one kingdome to another people,
And they go up and down, from nation to nation, From a kingdom to another people.
14 Yet suffered he no man to doe them wrong, but reprooued Kings for their sakes, saying,
He has not permitted any to oppress them And He reproves kings for their sakes.
15 Touche not mine anointed, and doe my Prophets no harme.
“Do not strike against My anointed, And do no evil to My prophets.”
16 Moreouer, he called a famine vpon ye land, and vtterly brake the staffe of bread.
And He calls a famine on the land, He has broken the whole staff of bread.
17 But he sent a man before them: Ioseph was solde for a slaue.
He has sent a man before them, Joseph has been sold for a servant.
18 They helde his feete in the stockes, and he was laide in yrons,
They have afflicted his feet with chains, Iron has entered his soul,
19 Vntill his appointed time came, and the counsell of the Lord had tryed him.
Until the time of the coming of His word The saying of YHWH has tried him.
20 The King sent and loosed him: euen the Ruler of the people deliuered him.
The king has sent, and looses him, The ruler of the peoples, and draws him out.
21 He made him lord of his house, and ruler of all his substance,
He has made him lord of his house, And ruler over all his possessions.
22 That he shoulde binde his princes vnto his will, and teach his Ancients wisedome.
To bind his chiefs at his pleasure, And he makes his elderly wise.
23 Then Israel came to Egypt, and Iaakob was a stranger in the land of Ham.
And Israel comes into Egypt, And Jacob has sojourned in the land of Ham.
24 And he increased his people exceedingly, and made them stronger then their oppressours.
And He makes His people very fruitful, And makes it mightier than its adversaries.
25 He turned their heart to hate his people, and to deale craftily with his seruants.
He turned their heart to hate His people, To conspire against His servants.
26 Then sent he Moses his seruant, and Aaron whom he had chosen.
He has sent His servant Moses, Aaron whom He had fixed on.
27 They shewed among them the message of his signes, 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 darkenesse, and made it darke: and they were not disobedient vnto his commission.
He has sent darkness, and it is dark, And they have not provoked His word.
29 He turned their waters into blood, and slewe their fish.
He has turned their waters to blood, And puts their fish to death.
30 Their land brought foorth frogs, euen in their Kings chambers.
Their land has teemed [with] frogs, In the inner chambers of their kings.
31 He spake, and there came swarmes of flies and lice in all their quarters.
He has commanded, and the beetle comes, Lice into all their border.
32 He gaue them haile for raine, and flames of fire in their land.
He has made their showers hail, A flaming fire [is] in their land.
33 He smote their vines also and their figge trees, and brake downe the trees in their coastes.
And He strikes their vine and their fig, And shatters the trees of their border.
34 He spake, and the grashoppers came, and caterpillers innumerable,
He has commanded, and the locust comes, And the cankerworm—innumerable,
35 And did eate vp all the grasse in their land, and deuoured the fruite of their ground.
And it consumes every herb in their land, And it consumes the fruit of their ground.
36 He smote also all the first borne in their land, euen the beginning of all their strength.
And He strikes every firstborn in their land, The first-fruit of all their strength,
37 He brought them forth also with siluer and golde, and there was none feeble among their tribes.
And brings them out with silver and gold, And there is not a feeble one in its tribes.
38 Egypt was glad at their departing: for the feare of them had fallen vpon them.
Egypt has rejoiced in their going forth, For their fear had fallen on them.
39 He spred a cloude to be a couering, and fire to giue light in the night.
He has spread a cloud for a covering, And fire to enlighten the night.
40 They asked, and he brought quailes, and he filled them with the bread of heauen.
They have asked, and He brings quails, And satisfies them [with] bread of the heavens.
41 He opened the rocke, and the waters flowed out, and ranne in the drye places like a riuer.
He has opened a rock, and waters flow, They have gone on in dry places—a river.
42 For he remembred his holy promise to Abraham his seruant,
For He has remembered His holy word, With His servant Abraham,
43 And he brought forth his people with ioy, and his chosen with gladnesse,
And He brings 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 gives to them the lands of nations, And they possess the labor of peoples,
45 That they might keepe his statutes, and obserue his Lawes. Prayse ye the Lord.
That they may observe His statutes, And may keep His laws. Praise YAH!
