Psalms 105
1 Give thanks to the LORD! Call on his name! Make his doings known among the peoples.
| הודו ליהוה קראו בשמו הודיעו בעמים עלילותיו |
2 Sing to him, sing praises to him! Tell of all his marvelous works.
| שירו-לו זמרו-לו שיחו בכל-נפלאותיו |
3 Glory in his holy name. Let the heart of those who seek the LORD rejoice.
| התהללו בשם קדשו ישמח לב מבקשי יהוה |
4 Seek the LORD and his strength. Seek his face forever more.
| דרשו יהוה ועזו בקשו פניו תמיד |
5 Remember his marvelous works that he has done: his wonders, and the judgments of his mouth,
| זכרו--נפלאותיו אשר-עשה מפתיו ומשפטי-פיו |
6 you offspring of Abraham, his servant, you children of Jacob, his chosen ones.
| זרע אברהם עבדו בני יעקב בחיריו |
7 He is the LORD, our God. His judgments are in all the earth.
| הוא יהוה אלהינו בכל-הארץ משפטיו |
8 He has remembered his covenant forever, the word which he commanded to a thousand generations,
| זכר לעולם בריתו דבר צוה לאלף דור |
9 the covenant which he made with Abraham, his oath to Isaac,
| אשר כרת את-אברהם ושבועתו לישחק |
10 and confirmed it to Jacob for a statute; to Israel for an everlasting covenant,
| ויעמידה ליעקב לחק לישראל ברית עולם |
11 saying, “To you I will give the land of Canaan, the lot of your inheritance,”
| לאמר--לך אתן את-ארץ-כנען חבל נחלתכם |
12 when they were but a few men in number, yes, very few, and foreigners in it.
| בהיותם מתי מספר כמעט וגרים בה |
13 They went about from nation to nation, from one kingdom to another people.
| ויתהלכו מגוי אל-גוי מממלכה אל-עם אחר |
14 He allowed no one to do them wrong. Yes, he reproved kings for their sakes,
| לא-הניח אדם לעשקם ויוכח עליהם מלכים |
15 “Don’t touch my anointed ones! Do my prophets no harm!”
| אל-תגעו במשיחי ולנביאי אל-תרעו |
16 He called for a famine on the land. He destroyed the food supplies.
| ויקרא רעב על-הארץ כל-מטה-לחם שבר |
17 He sent a man before them. Joseph was sold for a slave.
| שלח לפניהם איש לעבד נמכר יוסף |
18 They bruised his feet with shackles. His neck was locked in irons,
| ענו בכבל רגליו (רגלו) ברזל באה נפשו |
19 until the time that his word happened, and the LORD’s word proved him true.
| עד-עת בא-דברו-- אמרת יהוה צרפתהו |
20 The king sent and freed him, even the ruler of peoples, and let him go free.
| שלח מלך ויתירהו משל עמים ויפתחהו |
21 He made him lord of his house, and ruler of all of his possessions,
| שמו אדון לביתו ומשל בכל-קנינו |
22 to discipline his princes at his pleasure, and to teach his elders wisdom.
| לאסר שריו בנפשו וזקניו יחכם |
23 Israel also came into Egypt. Jacob lived in the land of Ham.
| ויבא ישראל מצרים ויעקב גר בארץ-חם |
24 He increased his people greatly, and made them stronger than their adversaries.
| ויפר את-עמו מאד ויעצמהו מצריו |
25 He turned their heart to hate his people, to conspire against his servants.
| הפך לבם לשנא עמו להתנכל בעבדיו |
26 He sent Moses, his servant, and Aaron, whom he had chosen.
| שלח משה עבדו אהרן אשר בחר-בו |
27 They performed miracles among them, and wonders in the land of Ham.
| שמו-בם דברי אתותיו ומפתים בארץ חם |
28 He sent darkness, and made it dark. They didn’t rebel against his words.
| שלח חשך ויחשך ולא-מרו את-דבריו (דברו) |
29 He turned their waters into blood, and killed their fish.
| הפך את-מימיהם לדם וימת את-דגתם |
30 Their land swarmed with frogs, even in the rooms of their kings.
| שרץ ארצם צפרדעים בחדרי מלכיהם |
31 He spoke, and swarms of flies came, and lice in all their borders.
| אמר ויבא ערב כנים בכל-גבולם |
32 He gave them hail for rain, with lightning in their land.
| נתן גשמיהם ברד אש להבות בארצם |
33 He struck their vines and also their fig trees, and shattered the trees of their country.
| ויך גפנם ותאנתם וישבר עץ גבולם |
34 He spoke, and the locusts came with the grasshoppers, without number.
| אמר ויבא ארבה וילק ואין מספר |
35 They ate up every plant in their land, and ate up the fruit of their ground.
| ויאכל כל-עשב בארצם ויאכל פרי אדמתם |
36 He struck also all the firstborn in their land, the first fruits of all their manhood.
| ויך כל-בכור בארצם ראשית לכל-אונם |
37 He brought them out with silver and gold. There was not one feeble person among his tribes.
| ויוציאם בכסף וזהב ואין בשבטיו כושל |
38 Egypt was glad when they departed, for the fear of them had fallen on them.
| שמח מצרים בצאתם כי-נפל פחדם עליהם |
39 He spread a cloud for a covering, fire to give light in the night.
| פרש ענן למסך ואש להאיר לילה |
40 They asked, and he brought quails, and satisfied them with the bread of the sky.
| שאל ויבא שלו ולחם שמים ישביעם |
41 He opened the rock, and waters gushed out. They ran as a river in the dry places.
| פתח צור ויזובו מים הלכו בציות נהר |
42 For he remembered his holy word, and Abraham, his servant.
| כי-זכר את-דבר קדשו את-אברהם עבדו |
43 He brought his people out with joy, his chosen with singing.
| ויוצא עמו בששון ברנה את-בחיריו |
44 He gave them the lands of the nations. They took the labor of the peoples in possession,
| ויתן להם ארצות גוים ועמל לאמים יירשו |
45 that they might keep his statutes, and observe his laws. Praise the LORD!
| בעבור ישמרו חקיו-- ותורתיו ינצרו הללו-יה |
