Psalms 105
1 Give ye thanks to Yahweh, Call upon his Name, Make known, among the peoples, his doings;
Praise the Lord, and call vpon his Name: declare his workes among the people.
2 Sing ye to him, Make ye music to him, Speak ye of all his wonders.
Sing vnto him, sing prayse vnto him, and talke of all his wonderous workes.
3 Make your boast in his holy Name, Joyful be the heart of them who are seeking Yahweh.
Reioyce in his holy Name: let the heart of them that seeke the Lord, reioyce.
4 Search out Yahweh and his strength, Seek diligently his face at all times.
Seeke the Lord and his strength: seeke his face continually.
5 Remember his wonders which he hath done, His portents, and the just decisions of his mouth.
Remember his marueilous woorkes, that he hath done, his wonders and the iudgements of his mouth,
6 O ye Seed of Abraham—his servants, Sons of Jacob—his chosen ones:
Ye seede of Abraham his seruant, ye children of Iaakob, which are his elect.
7 Yahweh himself, is our God, Through all the land, are his just decision.
He is the Lord our God: his iudgements are through all the earth.
8 He hath remembered, unto times age-abiding, his covenant, The word he commanded, to a thousand generations;
He hath alway remembred his couenant and promise, that he made to a thousand generations,
9 Which he solemnised with Abraham, and his oath, to Isaac;
Euen that which he made with Abraham, and his othe vnto Izhak:
10 And confirmed it unto Jacob for a statute, To Israel, as a covenant age-abiding;
And since hath confirmed it to Iaakob for a lawe, and to Israel for an euerlasting couenant,
11 Saying, To thee, will I give the land of Canaan, As your inherited portion;
Saying, Vnto thee will I giue the land of Canaan, the lot of your inheritance.
12 While as yet they were men easily counted, —A very few, and sojourners therein;
Albeit they were fewe in nomber, yea, very fewe, and strangers in the land,
13 And they wandered from nation to nation, From a kingdom, to another people.
And walked about from nation to nation, from one kingdome to another people,
14 He suffered no son of earth to oppress them, And reproved—for their sakes—[even] kings!
Yet suffered he no man to doe them wrong, but reprooued Kings for their sakes, saying,
15 Ye may not touch mine Anointed ones, And, to my Prophets, may ye do no wrong.
Touche not mine anointed, and doe my Prophets no harme.
16 Then called he a famine over the land, All the staff of bread, he brake;
Moreouer, he called a famine vpon ye land, and vtterly brake the staffe of bread.
17 He sent before them a man, For a slave, was he sold—[even] Joseph;
But he sent a man before them: Ioseph was solde for a slaue.
18 They forced, into a fetter, his foot, Into the iron, entered his soul;
They helde his feete in the stockes, and he was laide in yrons,
19 Until the time when his word came to pass, Speech of Yahweh, proved him;
Vntill his appointed time came, and the counsell of the Lord had tryed him.
20 The king sent, and set him free, One having dominion over peoples, yet loosed he his bonds;
The King sent and loosed him: euen the Ruler of the people deliuered him.
21 He appointed him lord to his household, And one having dominion over all he possessed;
He made him lord of his house, and ruler of all his substance,
22 That he might bind his rulers as he pleased, And, his elders, he might embue with wisdom.
That he shoulde binde his princes vnto his will, and teach his Ancients wisedome.
23 So Israel came into Egypt, And, Jacob, sojourned in the land of Ham;
Then Israel came to Egypt, and Iaakob was a stranger in the land of Ham.
24 And he made his people exceeding fruitful, —And caused them to become stronger than their adversaries.
And he increased his people exceedingly, and made them stronger then their oppressours.
25 He let them turn their heart—To hate his people, To deal treacherously with his servants;
He turned their heart to hate his people, and to deale craftily with his seruants.
26 He sent Moses his servant, Aaron, whom he had chosen.
Then sent he Moses his seruant, and Aaron whom he had chosen.
27 He set among them his threatening signs, And his wonders, in the land of Ham;
They shewed among them the message of his signes, and wonders in the land of Ham.
28 He sent darkness, and made it dark, But they rebelled against his words;
He sent darkenesse, and made it darke: and they were not disobedient vnto his commission.
29 He turned their waters into blood, And so caused their fish to die;
He turned their waters into blood, and slewe their fish.
30 Their land swarmed with frogs, In the chambers of their kings!
Their land brought foorth frogs, euen in their Kings chambers.
31 He spake, and there came in the gad-fly, Gnats, in all their bounds;
He spake, and there came swarmes of flies and lice in all their quarters.
32 He made their showers—hail, A fire flaming throughout their land;
He gaue them haile for raine, and flames of fire in their land.
33 And he smote their vines, and their fig-trees, And brake in pieces the trees of their bounds;
He smote their vines also and their figge trees, and brake downe the trees in their coastes.
34 He spake—then came the swarming locust, —The devouring locust, and that without number;
He spake, and the grashoppers came, and caterpillers innumerable,
35 And devoured all the herbage in their land, And devoured the fruit of their ground.
And did eate vp all the grasse in their land, and deuoured the fruite of their ground.
36 Then smote he every firstborn in their land, The beginning of all their strength;
He smote also all the first borne in their land, euen the beginning of all their strength.
37 Thus brought he them forth, with silver and gold, Nor was there, throughout his tribes, one that faltered;
He brought them forth also with siluer and golde, and there was none feeble among their tribes.
38 Egypt rejoiced when they went out, For the dread of them had fallen upon them.
Egypt was glad at their departing: for the feare of them had fallen vpon them.
39 He spread out a cloud as a covering, And fire, to give light by night,
He spred a cloude to be a couering, and fire to giue light in the night.
40 They asked, and he brought in the quail, —And, with the bread of the heavens, he satisfied them;
They asked, and he brought quailes, and he filled them with the bread of heauen.
41 He opened the rock, and there gushed forth waters, They flowed along, through parched places, as a river;
He opened the rocke, and the waters flowed out, and ranne in the drye places like a riuer.
42 For he remembered his holy word, With Abraham his servant.
For he remembred his holy promise to Abraham his seruant,
43 Thus brought he forth his people with gladness, —With shouts of triumph, his chosen ones;
And he brought forth his people with ioy, and his chosen with gladnesse,
44 And gave them, the lands of the nations, And, of the toil of the peoples, took they possession:
And gaue them the lands of the heathen, and they tooke the labours of the people in possession,
45 In order that they might observe his statutes, And, over his laws, might keep watch, Praise ye Yah.
That they might keepe his statutes, and obserue his Lawes. Prayse ye the Lord.
