Psalms 105
105
1Oh give thanks unto Jehovah, call upon his name;
Make known among the peoples his doings.
2Sing unto him, sing praises unto him;
Talk ye of all his marvellous works.
3Glory ye in his holy name:
Let the heart of them rejoice that seek Jehovah.
4Seek ye Jehovah and his strength;
Seek his face evermore.
5Remember his marvellous works that he hath done,
His wonders, and the judgments of his mouth,
6O ye seed of Abraham his servant,
Ye children of Jacob, his chosen ones.
7He is Jehovah our God:
His judgments are in all the earth.
8He hath remembered his covenant for ever,
The word which he commanded to a thousand generations,
9 The covenant which he made with Abraham,
And his oath unto Isaac,
10And confirmed the same unto Jacob for a statute,
To Israel for an everlasting covenant,
11Saying, Unto thee will I give the land of Canaan,
The lot of your inheritance;
12When they were but a few men in number,
Yea, very few, and sojourners in it.
13And they went about from nation to nation,
From one kingdom to another people.
14He suffered no man to do them wrong;
Yea, he reproved kings for their sakes,
15 Saying, Touch not mine anointed ones,
And do my prophets no harm.
16And he called for a famine upon the land;
He brake the whole staff of bread.
17He sent a man before them;
Joseph was sold for a servant:
18His feet they hurt with fetters:
He was laid in chains of iron,
19Until the time that his word came to pass,
The word of Jehovah tried him.
20The king sent and loosed him;
Even the ruler of peoples, and let him go free.
21He made him lord of his house,
And ruler of all his substance;
22To bind his princes at his pleasure,
And teach his elders wisdom.
23Israel also came into Egypt;
And Jacob sojourned in the land of Ham.
24And he increased his people greatly,
And made them stronger than their adversaries.
25He turned their heart to hate his people,
To deal subtly with his servants.
26He sent Moses his servant,
And Aaron whom he had chosen.
27They set among them his signs,
And wonders in the land of Ham.
28He sent darkness, and made it dark;
And they rebelled not against his words.
29He turned their waters into blood,
And slew their fish.
30Their land swarmed with frogs
In the chambers of their kings.
31He spake, and there came swarms of flies,
And lice in all their borders.
32He gave them hail for rain,
And flaming fire in their land.
33He smote their vines also and their fig-trees,
And brake the trees of their borders.
34He spake, and the locust came,
And the grasshopper, and that without number,
35And did eat up every herb in their land,
And did eat up the fruit of their ground.
36He smote also all the first-born in their land,
The chief of all their strength.
37And he brought them forth with silver and gold;
And there was not one feeble person among his tribes.
38Egypt was glad when they departed;
For the fear of them had fallen upon them.
39He spread a cloud for a covering,
And fire to give light in the night.
40They asked, and he brought quails,
And satisfied them with the bread of heaven.
41He opened the rock, and waters gushed out;
They ran in the dry places like a river.
42For he remembered his holy word,
And Abraham his servant.
43And he brought forth his people with joy,
And his chosen with singing.
44And he gave them the lands of the nations;
And they took the labor of the peoples in possession:
45That they might keep his statutes,
And observe his laws.
Praise ye Jehovah.

Psalms 105
105
Praise to Yahweh for His Work on Behalf of Israel
1Give thanks to Yahweh; proclaim his name;
make known his deeds among the peoples.
2Sing to him; sing praises concerning him;
tell of all his wonderful works.
3Boast about his holy name.
Let the heart of those who seek Yahweh rejoice.
4Make supplication to Yahweh and his might;
seek his face continually.
5Remember his wonders that he has done,
his signs and the judgments of his mouth,
6O offspring of Abraham his servant,
you descendants#Or “children,” or “sons” of Jacob, his chosen ones.
7He is Yahweh our God;
his judgments are in all the earth.
8He remembers his covenant forever,
the word that he commanded
for a thousand generations,
9that he made with Abraham,
and by his oath swore to Isaac.
10He then confirmed it to Jacob as a statute,
to Israel as an everlasting covenant,
11saying, “To you I will give the land of Canaan
as the allotment that is your#Hebrew plural inheritance.”
12When they were few in number#Literally “men of number,” that is, so few you could count them—
a trifle—and were sojourners in it,
13and they wandered about among the nations,#Literally “from people to people”
from one kingdom to another people,
14he allowed no one to oppress them,
and he rebuked kings on account of them,
15“Do not touch my anointed ones,
nor harm my prophets.”
16Then he called for a famine upon the land;
he broke every supply#Literally “staff” of bread.
17He sent a man on ahead of them;
Joseph was sold as a slave.
18They clamped#Hebrew “oppressed, hurt” his feet in fetters.#Hebrew “fetter”
His neck#Hebrew nephesh can designate the life, soul, appetite, desire, or throat/neck. went into irons.#Hebrew “iron”
19Until the time his word came about,
the word of Yahweh tested#Or “refined” him.
20The king sent and he freed him;
the ruler of the peoples sent and let him loose.
21He made him lord of his house
and ruler of all his possessions,
22to obligate#Hebrew “to bind, imprison” The LXX’s “to instruct” presupposes ysr instead of 'sr, and might be correct in light of the parallelism that is fairly tight in this psalm his officials as he saw fit#Literally “in his desire soul”
and teach his elders wisdom.
23Then Israel came to Egypt,
and Jacob was a sojourner in the land of Ham.
24And he#That is, God made his people very fruitful.
He also made them#Hebrew “him” stronger than their#Hebrew “his” enemies.
25He turned their heart to hate his people,
to deal deceitfully against his servants.
26He sent his servant Moses,
together with Aaron whom he had chosen.
27They set before them the words concerning his signs
and portents in the land of Ham.
28He sent darkness and made it dark,
and they did not rebel against his words.
29He turned their waters into blood
and it killed their fish.
30Their land swarmed with frogs,
even in the chambers of their kings.
31He spoke, and there came flies
and gnats throughout all their territory.#Hebrew “borders”
32He gave hail for their rains
and the fire of lightning in their land.
33And he struck their vines and fig trees,
and shattered the trees of their territory.
34He spoke and there came locusts
and young locusts without number.
35And they ate up all the vegetation in their land,
and they ate up the fruit of their ground.
36And he struck down all the firstborn in their land,
the first of all their virility.
37Then he brought them out with silver and gold,
and there was none among his tribes who stumbled.
38Egypt was glad when they departed,
because the fear of them#That is, Israel had fallen upon them.
39He spread out a cloud for a covering,
and fire to give light at night.
40They#Hebrew “He” asked, and he brought quail,
and satisfied them with the bread of heaven.
41He opened the rock and waters flowed;
they coursed#Or “surged” through the dry places like a river.
42For he remembered his holy promise;#Literally “word”
he remembered Abraham his servant.
43And so he brought out his people with joy,
his chosen ones with rejoicing.
44And he gave to them the lands of the nations,
and they inherited the labor of the peoples,
45so that they might observe his statutes,
and keep his laws.
Praise Yah.#Hebrew hallelujah
