105:1 Give thanks to the LORD, call on his name; make known among the nations what he has done.
105:2 Sing to him, sing praise to him; tell of all his wonderful acts.
105:3 Glory in his holy name; let the hearts of those who seek the LORD rejoice.
105:4 Look to the LORD and his strength; seek his face always.
105:5 Remember the wonders he has done, his miracles, and the judgments he pronounced,
105:6 O descendants of Abraham his servant, O sons of Jacob, his chosen ones.
105:7 He is the LORD our God; his judgments are in all the earth.
105:8 He remembers his covenant forever, the word he commanded, for a thousand generations,
105:9 the covenant he made with Abraham, the oath he swore to Isaac.
105:10 He confirmed it to Jacob as a decree, to Israel as an everlasting covenant:
105:11 "To you I will give the land of Canaan as the portion you will inherit."
105:12 When they were but few in number, few indeed, and strangers in it,
105:13 they wandered from nation to nation, from one kingdom to another.
105:14 He allowed no one to oppress them; for their sake he rebuked kings:
105:15 "Do not touch my anointed ones; do my prophets no harm."
105:16 He called down famine on the land and destroyed all their supplies of food;
105:17 and he sent a man before them--Joseph, sold as a slave.
105:18 They bruised his feet with shackles, his neck was put in irons,
105:19 till what he foretold came to pass, till the word of the LORD proved him true.
105:20 The king sent and released him, the ruler of peoples set him free.
105:21 He made him master of his household, ruler over all he possessed,
105:22 to instruct his princes as he pleased and teach his elders wisdom.
105:23 Then Israel entered Egypt; Jacob lived as an alien in the land of Ham.
105:24 The LORD made his people very fruitful; he made them too numerous for their foes,
105:25 whose hearts he turned to hate his people, to conspire against his servants.
105:26 He sent Moses his servant, and Aaron, whom he had chosen.
105:27 They performed his miraculous signs among them, his wonders in the land of Ham.
105:28 He sent darkness and made the land dark--for had they not rebelled against his words?
105:29 He turned their waters into blood, causing their fish to die.
105:30 Their land teemed with frogs, which went up into the bedrooms of their rulers.
105:31 He spoke, and there came swarms of flies, and gnats throughout their country.
105:32 He turned their rain into hail, with lightning throughout their land;
105:33 he struck down their vines and fig trees and shattered the trees of their country.
105:34 He spoke, and the locusts came, grasshoppers without number;
105:35 they ate up every green thing in their land, ate up the produce of their soil.
105:36 Then he struck down all the firstborn in their land, the firstfruits of all their manhood.
105:37 He brought out Israel, laden with silver and gold, and from among their tribes no one faltered.
105:38 Egypt was glad when they left, because dread of Israel had fallen on them.
105:39 He spread out a cloud as a covering, and a fire to give light at night.
105:40 They asked, and he brought them quail and satisfied them with the bread of heaven.
105:41 He opened the rock, and water gushed out; like a river it flowed in the desert.
105:42 For he remembered his holy promise given to his servant Abraham.
105:43 He brought out his people with rejoicing, his chosen ones with shouts of joy;
105:44 he gave them the lands of the nations, and they fell heir to what others had toiled for--
105:45 that they might keep his precepts and observe his laws. Praise the LORD.
105:2 Sing to him, sing praise to him; tell of all his wonderful acts.
105:3 Glory in his holy name; let the hearts of those who seek the LORD rejoice.
105:4 Look to the LORD and his strength; seek his face always.
