Psalms 105:1-22

Give thanks to the LORD! Call on his name! Make known his accomplishments among the nations! Sing to him! Make music to him! Tell about all his miraculous deeds! Boast about his holy name! Let the hearts of those who seek the LORD rejoice! Seek the LORD and the strength he gives! Seek his presence continually! Recall the miraculous deeds he performed, his mighty acts and the judgments he decreed, O children of Abraham, God’s servant, you descendants of Jacob, God’s chosen ones! He is the LORD our God; he carries out judgment throughout the earth. He always remembers his covenantal decree, the promise he made to a thousand generations – the promise he made to Abraham, the promise he made by oath to Isaac! He gave it to Jacob as a decree, to Israel as a lasting promise, saying, “To you I will give the land of Canaan as the portion of your inheritance.” When they were few in number, just a very few, and resident aliens within it, they wandered from nation to nation, and from one kingdom to another. He let no one oppress them; he disciplined kings for their sake, saying,“Don’t touch my chosen ones! Don’t harm my prophets!” He called down a famine upon the earth; he cut off all the food supply. He sent a man ahead of them – Joseph was sold as a servant. The shackles hurt his feet; his neck was placed in an iron collar, until the time when his prediction came true. The LORD’s word proved him right. The king authorized his release; the ruler of nations set him free. He put him in charge of his palace, and made him manager of all his property, giving him authority to imprison his officials and to teach his advisers.
