Psalms 105
105
1Ch 16:8–22
1Oh, give thanks unto the Lord; call upon His name;
make known His deeds among the peoples.
2#Ps 63:1; 84:2 Sing unto Him, sing praises unto Him;
proclaim all His wondrous works.
3#Ps 79:10; 80:5 Glory in His holy name;
let the heart rejoice for those who seek the Lord.
4#Isa 30:29; Ps 62:8 Seek the Lord and His strength;
seek His presence continuously.
5#Ps 42:11; 43:5 Remember His marvelous works that He has done;
His wonders and the judgments from His mouth,
6#2Sa 17:22; Dt 3:8–9 O offspring of Abraham, His servant,
O children of Jacob, His chosen ones.
7#Ps 88:7; Jnh 2:3 He is the Lord our God;
His judgments are in all the earth.
8#Job 35:10; Ps 63:6 He remembers His covenant forever,
the word that He commanded, to a thousand generations,
9#Ps 38:6; 18:2 that covenant He made with Abraham,
and His oath to Isaac,
10#Ps 42:3; Joel 2:17 and confirmed to Jacob as a decree,
and to Israel for an everlasting covenant,
11#Ps 42:5; 43:5 saying, “To you I will give the land of Canaan
as the portion of your inheritance.”
12When they were but a few people in number,
indeed, very few, and strangers in it,
13when they went from one nation to another,
from one kingdom to another people,
14He did not permit anyone to do them wrong;
indeed, He reproved kings on their behalf,
15saying, “Do not touch my anointed ones,
and do no harm to my prophets.”
16Moreover He called for a famine upon the land;
He broke the whole supply of bread.
17He sent a man before them,
Joseph, who was sold as a slave.
18They hurt his feet with fetters;
his neck was put in an iron collar.
19Until the time that his word came to pass,
the word of the Lord tested him.
20The king sent and released him;
the ruler of the people let him go free.
21He made Joseph lord of his house
and ruler of all his possessions,
22to imprison his princes at Joseph’s pleasure
and to teach his elders wisdom.
23Then Israel came into Egypt,
and Jacob sojourned in the land of Ham.
24The Lord increased His people greatly
and made them stronger than their enemies.
25He turned their hearts to hate His people,
to deal cleverly with His servants.
26He sent Moses, His servant,
and Aaron whom He had chosen.
27They showed His signs among them
and wonders in the land of Ham.
28He sent darkness and made the land dark,
and Moses and Aaron did not rebel against His word.
29He turned their waters into blood
and caused their fish to die.
30Their land brought forth frogs in abundance,
even in the chambers of their kings.
31He spoke, and there came swarms of flies
and gnats in all their country.
32He gave them hail for rain
and flaming lightning in their land.
33He struck their vines and their fig trees
and shattered the trees of their country.
34He spoke, and the locusts came,
and caterpillars without number,
35that devoured all the vegetation in their land,
and ate all the fruit of their ground.
36He struck down all the firstborn in their land,
the first fruits of all their strength.
37Then He brought them out with silver and gold,
and no one among their tribes faltered.
38Egypt was glad when they left,
for the fear of Israel fell upon them.
39He spread a cloud for a covering,
and fire to give light in the night.
40The people asked, and He brought quail,
and satisfied them with abundant bread of heaven.
41He opened the rock, and the waters gushed out;
they ran in the desert like a river.
42For he recalled His holy promise
to Abraham His servant.
43He brought forth His people with joy,
and His chosen ones with gladness,
44and gave them the lands of the nations,
and they took possession of the fruitful labor of the people,
45that they might observe His statutes
and keep His laws.
Praise the Lord!

Psalm 105
1Give thanks to the Lord.
Call on him.
Make known among the nations what he has done.
2Sing to him.
Make music to praise him.
Meditate on all the miracles he has performed.
3Brag about his holy name.
Let the hearts of those who seek the Lord rejoice.
4Search for the Lord and his strength.
Always seek his presence.
5Remember the miracles he performed,
the amazing things he did, and the judgments he pronounced,
6you descendants of his servant Abraham,
you descendants of Jacob, his chosen ones.
7He is the Lord our God.
His judgments are pronounced throughout the earth.
8He always remembers his promise,#105:8 Or “covenant.”
the word that he commanded for a thousand generations,
9the promise that he made to Abraham,
and his sworn oath to Isaac.
10He confirmed it as a law for Jacob,
as an everlasting promise to Israel,
11by saying, “I will give you the land of Canaan.
It is your share of the inheritance.”
12While the people of Israel were few in number,
a small group of foreigners living in that land,
13they wandered from nation to nation,
from one kingdom to another.
14He didn’t permit anyone to oppress them.
He warned kings about them:
15“Do not touch my anointed ones
or harm my prophets.”
16He brought famine to the land.
He took away their food supply.
17He sent a man ahead of them.
He sent Joseph, who was sold as a slave.
18They hurt his feet with shackles,
and cut into his neck with an iron collar.
19The Lord’s promise tested him through fiery trials
until his prediction came true.
20The king sent someone to release him.
The ruler of nations set him free.
21He made Joseph the master of his palace
and the ruler of all his possessions.
22Joseph trained the king’s officers the way he wanted
and taught his respected leaders wisdom.
23Then Israel came to Egypt.
Jacob lived as a foreigner in the land of Ham.
24The Lord made his people grow rapidly in number
and stronger than their enemies.
25He changed their minds so that they hated his people,
and they dealt treacherously with his servants.
26He sent his servant Moses, and he sent Aaron, whom he had chosen.
27They displayed his miraculous signs among them
and did amazing things in the land of Ham.
28He sent darkness and made ⌞their land⌟ dark.
They did not rebel against his orders.
29He turned their water into blood
and caused their fish to die.
30He made their land swarm with frogs,
even in the kings’ bedrooms.
31He spoke, and swarms of flies and gnats
infested their whole territory.
32He gave them hail and lightning
instead of rain throughout their land.
33He struck their grapevines and fig trees
and smashed the trees in their territory.
34He spoke, and countless locusts and grasshoppers came.
35They devoured all the plants in the land.
They devoured the crops in the fields.
36He killed all the firstborn sons,
the first ones born in the land when their fathers were young.
37He brought Israel out with silver and gold,
and no one among his tribes stumbled.
38The Egyptians were terrified of Israel,
so they were glad when Israel left.
39He spread out a cloud as a protective covering
and a fire to light up the night.
40The Israelites asked, and he brought them quail
and filled them with bread from heaven.
41He opened a rock, and water gushed
and flowed like a river through the dry places.
42He remembered his holy promise to his servant Abraham.
43He brought his people out with joy,
his chosen ones with a song of joy.
44He gave them the lands of ⌞other⌟ nations,
and they inherited what others had worked for
45so that they would obey his laws
and follow his teachings.
Hallelujah!
