Psalm 105

1Praise Yahweh! Call on his name! Proclaim his deeds among the peoples!

2Sing to him, sing praises to him; declare all his marvelous works.

3Boast in his holy name; let the heart of those who seek Yahweh rejoice.

4Seek Yahweh and his strength; seek his face continually.

5Remember his wondrous works that he accomplished, his miracles, and the judgments of his mouth.

6Offspring of Abraham his servant, sons of Jacob his chosen ones.

7He is Yahweh our God; his judgments are throughout the earth.

8He remembers his covenant forever, the word he commanded to a thousand generations.

9which he made with Abraham, and his oath to Isaac

10He established it for Jacob as a statute, for Israel as an everlasting covenant.

11saying, "To you I will give the land of Canaan, the portion of your inheritance."

12When they were few men in number, very few, and sojourners in it.

13They wandered from nation to nation, from kingdom to another people.

14He did not allow anyone to oppress them, and he rebuked kings because of them.

15Do not touch my anointed ones, nor harm my prophets.

16He called a famine on the land. He broke every supply of bread.

17He sent a man ahead of them, Joseph sold as a slave.

18They afflicted his feet with a fetter; iron entered his soul.

19until the time his word came, the word of Yahweh tested him.

20The king sent and released him; the ruler of peoples set him free.

21He appointed him lord of his house and ruler over all his possessions.

22To bind his princes according to his desire, and make his elders wise.

23Israel came to Egypt, and Jacob sojourned in the land of Ham.

24He made his people exceedingly fruitful and strengthened them more than their adversaries.

25He turned their hearts to hate his people and plot against his servants.

26He sent Moses his servant and Aaron, whom he chose.

27They performed the words of his signs and wonders among them in the land of Ham.

28He sent darkness, and it grew dark; they did not disobey his words.

29He changed their waters to blood and killed their fish.

30Their land teemed with frogs in their kings' chambers.

31He spoke, and swarms and lice came throughout their borders.

32He gave hail for their rain, flames of fire in their land.

33He beat their vines and fig trees, and shattered the trees of their borders.

34He spoke, and locusts came, and caterpillars without number.

35They consumed all the grass in their land and consumed the fruit of their ground.

36He struck all the firstborn in their land, the first of all their strength.

37He led them out with silver and gold, and there was no stumbler among his tribes.

38Egypt rejoiced when they went out, because dread of them fell upon them.

39He spread a cloud for covering, and fire to shine through the night.

40They asked, and he brought quail and satisfied them with bread from heaven.

41He tore open the rock, waters burst forth, and they went through the parched places like a river.

42For he remembered his holy word to Abraham his servant.

43He brought his people out with joy, his chosen with singing.

44He gave them the lands of the nations, and they inherited the toil of the peoples.

45that they might keep his statutes and guard his laws. Praise Yah!
