Psalms 105
1 Alleluya. Knouleche ye to the Lord, and inwardli clepe ye his name; telle ye hise werkis among hethen men.
Give thanks to YHWH—call on His Name, Make His acts known among the peoples.
2 Synge ye to hym, and seie ye salm to him, and telle ye alle hise merueylis;
Sing to Him—sing praise to Him, Meditate on all His wonders.
3 be ye preisid in his hooli name. The herte of men sekynge the Lord be glad;
Boast yourselves in His Holy Name, The heart of those seeking YHWH rejoices.
4 seke ye the Lord, and be ye confermed; seke ye euere his face.
Seek YHWH and His strength, Seek His face continually.
5 Haue ye mynde on hise merueilis, whiche he dide; on his grete wondris, and domes of his mouth.
Remember His wonders that He did, His signs and the judgments of His mouth.
6 The seed of Abraham, his seruaunt; the sones of Jacob, his chosun man.
O seed of Abraham, His servant, O sons of Jacob, His chosen ones.
7 He is oure Lord God; hise domes ben in al the erthe.
He [is] our God YHWH, His judgments [are] in all the earth.
8 He was myndeful of his testament in to the world; of the word which he comaundide in to a thousynde generaciouns.
He has remembered His covenant for all time, The word He commanded to one thousand generations,
9 Which he disposide to Abraham; and of his ooth to Isaac.
That He has made with Abraham, And His oath to Isaac,
10 And he ordeynede it to Jacob in to a comaundement; and to Israel in to euerlastinge testament.
And establishes it to Jacob for a statute, To Israel—a perpetual covenant,
11 And he seide, I shal yiue to thee the lond of Canaan; the cord of youre eritage.
Saying, “I give the land of Canaan to you, The portion of your inheritance,”
12 Whanne thei weren in a litil noumbre; and the comelingis of hem weren ful fewe.
In their being few in number, But a few, and sojourners in it.
13 And thei passiden fro folk in to folk; and fro a rewme in to another puple.
And they go up and down, from nation to nation, From a kingdom to another people.
14 He lefte not a man to anoye hem; and he chastiside kyngis for hem.
He has not permitted any to oppress them And He reproves kings for their sakes.
15 Nile ye touche my cristis; and nyle ye do wickidli among my prophetis.
“Do not strike against My anointed, And do no evil to My prophets.”
16 And God clepide hungir on erthe; and he wastide al the stidefastnesse of breed.
And He calls a famine on the land, He has broken the whole staff of bread.
17 He sente a man bifore hem; Joseph was seeld in to a seruaunt.
He has sent a man before them, Joseph has been sold for a servant.
18 Thei maden lowe hise feet in stockis, irun passide by his soule; til the word of him cam.
They have afflicted his feet with chains, Iron has entered his soul,
19 The speche of the Lord enflawmede him;
Until the time of the coming of His word The saying of YHWH has tried him.
20 the king sente and vnbond hym; the prince of puplis sente and delyuerede him.
The king has sent, and looses him, The ruler of the peoples, and draws him out.
21 He ordeynede him the lord of his hous; and the prince of al his possessioun.
He has made him lord of his house, And ruler over all his possessions.
22 That he schulde lerne hise princis as him silf; and that he schulde teche hise elde men prudence.
To bind his chiefs at his pleasure, And he makes his elderly wise.
23 And Israel entride in to Egipt; and Jacob was a comeling in the lond of Cham.
And Israel comes into Egypt, And Jacob has sojourned in the land of Ham.
24 And God encreesside his puple greetli; and made hym stidefast on hise enemyes.
And He makes His people very fruitful, And makes it mightier than its adversaries.
25 He turnede the herte of hem, that thei hatiden his puple; and diden gile ayens hise seruauntis.
He turned their heart to hate His people, To conspire against His servants.
26 He sent Moises, his seruaunt; thilke Aaron, whom he chees.
He has sent His servant Moses, Aaron whom He had fixed on.
27 He puttide in hem the wordis of hise myraclis; and of hise grete wondris in the lond of Cham.
They have set among them the matters of His signs, And wonders in the land of Ham.
28 He sente derknessis, and made derk; and he made not bitter hise wordis.
He has sent darkness, and it is dark, And they have not provoked His word.
29 He turnede the watris of hem in to blood; and he killide the fischis of hem.
He has turned their waters to blood, And puts their fish to death.
30 And the lond of hem yaf paddoks; in the priue places of the kyngis of hem.
Their land has teemed [with] frogs, In the inner chambers of their kings.
31 God seide, and a fleische flie cam; and gnattis in alle the coostis of hem.
He has commanded, and the beetle comes, Lice into all their border.
32 He settide her reynes hail; fier brennynge in the lond of hem.
He has made their showers hail, A flaming fire [is] in their land.
33 And he smoot the vynes of hem, and the fige trees of hem; and al to-brak the tree of the coostis of hem.
And He strikes their vine and their fig, And shatters the trees of their border.
34 He seide, and a locuste cam; and a bruk of which was noon noumbre.
He has commanded, and the locust comes, And the cankerworm—innumerable,
35 And it eet al the hey in the lond of hem; and it eet al the fruyt of the lond of hem.
And it consumes every herb in their land, And it consumes the fruit of their ground.
36 And he killide ech the firste gendrid thing in the lond of hem; the firste fruitis of alle the trauel of hem.
And He strikes every firstborn in their land, The first-fruit of all their strength,
37 And he ledde out hem with siluer and gold; and noon was sijk in the lynagis of hem.
And brings them out with silver and gold, And there is not a feeble one in its tribes.
38 Egipt was glad in the goyng forth of hem; for the drede of hem lai on Egipcians.
Egypt has rejoiced in their going forth, For their fear had fallen on them.
39 He spredde abrood a cloude, in to the hiling of hem; and fier, that it schynede to hem bi nyyt.
He has spread a cloud for a covering, And fire to enlighten the night.
40 Thei axiden, and a curlew cam; and he fillide hem with the breed of heuene.
They have asked, and He brings quails, And satisfies them [with] bread of the heavens.
41 He brak a stoon, and watris flowiden; floodis yeden forth in the drye place.
He has opened a rock, and waters flow, They have gone on in dry places—a river.
42 For he was myndeful of his hooli word; which he hadde to Abraham, his child.
For He has remembered His holy word, With His servant Abraham,
43 And he ledde out his puple in ful out ioiyng; and hise chosun men in gladnesse.
And He brings forth His people with joy, His chosen ones with singing.
44 And he yaf to hem the cuntreis of hethen men; and thei hadden in possessioun the trauels of puplis.
And He gives to them the lands of nations, And they possess the labor of peoples,
45 That thei kepe hise iustifiyngis; and seke his lawe.
That they may observe His statutes, And may keep His laws. Praise YAH!
