105:1 | | O give thanks unto the LORD; call upon his name: make known his deeds among the people. |
105:2 | | Sing unto him, sing psalms unto him: talk ye of all his wondrous works. |
105:3 | | Glory ye in his holy name: let the heart of them rejoice that seek the LORD. |
105:4 | | Seek the LORD, and his strength: seek his face evermore. |
105:5 | | Remember his marvellous works that he hath done; his wonders, and the judgments of his mouth; |
105:6 | | O ye seed of Abraham his servant, ye children of Jacob his chosen. |
105:7 | | He is the LORD our God: his judgments are in all the earth. |
105:8 | | He hath remembered his covenant for ever, the word which he commanded to a thousand generations. |
105:9 | | Which covenant he made with Abraham, and his oath unto Isaac; |
105:10 | | And confirmed the same unto Jacob for a law, and to Israel for an everlasting covenant: |
105:11 | | Saying, Unto thee will I give the land of Canaan, the lot of your inheritance: |
105:12 | | When they were but a few men in number; yea, very few, and strangers in it. |
105:13 | | When they went from one nation to another, from one kingdom to another people; |
105:14 | | He suffered no man to do them wrong: yea, he reproved kings for their sakes; |
105:15 | | Saying, Touch not mine anointed, and do my prophets no harm. |
105:16 | | Moreover he called for a famine upon the land: he brake the whole staff of bread. |
105:17 | | He sent a man before them, even Joseph, who was sold for a servant: |
105:18 | | Whose feet they hurt with fetters: he was laid in iron: |
105:19 | | Until the time that his word came: the word of the LORD tried him. |
105:20 | | The king sent and loosed him; even the ruler of the people, and let him go free. |
105:21 | | He made him lord of his house, and ruler of all his substance: |
105:22 | | To bind his princes at his pleasure; and teach his senators wisdom. |
105:23 | | Israel also came into Egypt; and Jacob sojourned in the land of Ham. |
105:24 | | And he increased his people greatly; and made them stronger than their enemies. |
105:25 | | He turned their heart to hate his people, to deal subtilly with his servants. |
105:26 | | He sent Moses his servant; and Aaron whom he had chosen. |
105:27 | | They shewed his signs among them, and wonders in the land of Ham. |
105:28 | | He sent darkness, and made it dark; and they rebelled not against his word. |
105:29 | | He turned their waters into blood, and slew their fish. |
105:30 | | Their land brought forth frogs in abundance, in the chambers of their kings. |
105:31 | | He spake, and there came divers sorts of flies, and lice in all their coasts. |
105:32 | | He gave them hail for rain, and flaming fire in their land. |
105:33 | | He smote their vines also and their fig trees; and brake the trees of their coasts. |
105:34 | | He spake, and the locusts came, and caterpillers, and that without number, |
105:35 | | And did eat up all the herbs in their land, and devoured the fruit of their ground. |
105:36 | | He smote also all the firstborn in their land, the chief of all their strength. |
105:37 | | He brought them forth also with silver and gold: and there was not one feeble person among their tribes. |
105:38 | | Egypt was glad when they departed: for the fear of them fell upon them. |
105:39 | | He spread a cloud for a covering; and fire to give light in the night. |
105:40 | | The people asked, and he brought quails, and satisfied them with the bread of heaven. |
105:41 | | He opened the rock, and the waters gushed out; they ran in the dry places like a river. |
105:42 | | For he remembered his holy promise, and Abraham his servant. |
105:43 | | And he brought forth his people with joy, and his chosen with gladness: |
105:44 | | And gave them the lands of the heathen: and they inherited the labour of the people; |
105:45 | | That they might observe his statutes, and keep his laws. Praise ye the LORD. |
