Psalm 105

 ^105:1Give thanks to Yahweh! Call on his name!
      Make his doings known among the peoples.

 ^105:2Sing to him, sing praises to him!
      Tell of all his marvelous works.

 ^105:3Glory in his holy name.
      Let the heart of them rejoice who seek Yahweh.

 ^105:4Seek Yahweh and his strength.
      Seek his face forever more.

 ^105:5Remember his marvelous works that he has done;
      His wonders, and the judgments of his mouth,

 ^105:6You seed of Abraham, his servant,
      You children of Jacob, his chosen ones.

 ^105:7He is Yahweh, our God.
      His judgments are in all the earth.

 ^105:8He has remembered his covenant forever,
      The word which he commanded to a thousand generations,

 ^105:9The covenant which he made with Abraham,
      His oath to Isaac,

 ^105:10And confirmed the same to Jacob for a statute;
      To Israel for an everlasting covenant,

 ^105:11Saying, "To you I will give the land of Canaan,
      The lot of your inheritance;"

 ^105:12When they were but a few men in number,
      Yes, very few, and sojourners in it.

 ^105:13They went about from nation to nation,
      From one kingdom to another people.

 ^105:14He allowed no one to do them wrong.
      Yes, he reproved kings for their sakes,

 ^105:15"Don't touch my anointed ones.
      Do my prophets no harm."

 ^105:16He called for a famine on the land.
      He destroyed the food supplies.

 ^105:17He sent a man before them.
      Joseph was sold for a slave.

 ^105:18They bruised his feet with shackles.
      His neck was locked in irons,

 ^105:19Until the time that his word happened,
      And Yahweh's word proved him true.

 ^105:20The king sent and freed him;
      Even the ruler of peoples, and let him go free.

 ^105:21He made him lord of his house,
      And ruler of all of his possessions;

 ^105:22To discipline his princes at his pleasure,
      And to teach his elders wisdom.

 ^105:23Israel also came into Egypt.
      Jacob sojourned in the land of Ham.

 ^105:24He increased his people greatly,
      And made them stronger than their adversaries.

 ^105:25He turned their heart to hate his people,
      To conspire against his servants.

 ^105:26He sent Moses, his servant,
      And Aaron, whom he had chosen.

 ^105:27They performed miracles among them,
      And wonders in the land of Ham.

 ^105:28He sent darkness, and made it dark.
      They didn't rebel against his words.

 ^105:29He turned their waters into blood,
      And killed their fish.

 ^105:30Their land swarmed with frogs,
      Even in the chambers of their kings.

 ^105:31He spoke, and swarms of flies came,
      And lice in all their borders.

 ^105:32He gave them hail for rain,
      With lightning in their land.

 ^105:33He struck their vines and also their fig trees,
      And shattered the trees of their country.

 ^105:34He spoke, and the locusts came,
      And the grasshoppers, without number,

 ^105:35Ate up every plant in their land;
      Ate up the fruit of their ground.

 ^105:36He struck also all the firstborn in their land,
      The chief of all their strength.

 ^105:37He brought them forth with silver and gold.
      There was not one feeble person among his tribes.

 ^105:38Egypt was glad when they departed,
      For the fear of them had fallen on them.

 ^105:39He spread a cloud for a covering,
      Fire to give light in the night.

 ^105:40They asked, and he brought quails,
      And satisfied them with the bread of the sky.

 ^105:41He opened the rock, and waters gushed out.
      They ran as a river in the dry places.

 ^105:42For he remembered his holy word,
      And Abraham, his servant.

 ^105:43He brought forth his people with joy,
      His chosen with singing.

 ^105:44He gave them the lands of the nations.
      They took the labor of the peoples in possession,

 ^105:45That they might keep his statutes,
      And observe his laws.
      Praise Yah!
