Psalm 105

¹ Give thanks unto the LORD, call upon his name; make known his doings among the peoples.

² Sing unto him, sing praises unto him; talk ye of all his marvelous works.

³ Glory ye in his holy name: let the heart of them rejoice that seek the LORD.

Seek ye the LORD and his strength; seek his face evermore.

Remember his marvelous works that he hath done; his wonders, and the judgments of his mouth;

O ye seed of Abraham his servant, ye children of Jacob, his chosen ones.

He is the LORD our God: his judgments are in all the earth.

He hath remembered his covenant for ever, the word which he commanded to a thousand generations;

The covenant which he made with Abraham, and his oath unto Isaac;

¹⁰ And confirmed the same unto Jacob for a statute, to Israel for an everlasting covenant:

¹¹ Saying, Unto thee will I give the land of Canaan, the lot of your inheritance:

¹² When they were but a few men in number; yea, very few, and sojourners in it;

¹³ And they went about from nation to nation, from one kingdom to another people.

¹⁴ He 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.

¹⁶ And he called for a famine upon the land; he brake the whole staff of bread.

¹⁷ He sent a man before them; Joseph was sold for a servant:

¹⁸ His feet they hurt with fetters; he was laid in chains of iron:

¹⁹ Until the time that his word came to pass; the word of the LORD tried him.

²⁰ The king sent and loosed him; even the ruler of peoples, and let him go free.

²¹ He made him lord of his house, and ruler of all his substance:

²² To bind his princes at his pleasure, and teach his senators wisdom.

²³ Israel also came into Egypt; and Jacob sojourned in the land of Ham.

²⁴ And he increased his people greatly, and made them stronger than their adversaries.

²⁵ He turned their heart to hate his people, to deal subtilly with his servants.

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

²⁷ They set among them his signs, and wonders in the land of Ham.

²⁸ He sent darkness, and made it dark; and they rebelled not against his words.

²⁹ He turned their waters into blood, and slew their fish.

³⁰ Their land swarmed with frogs, in the chambers of their kings.

³¹ He spake, and there came swarms of flies, and lice in all their borders.

³² He gave them hail for rain, and flaming fire in their land.

³³ He smote their vines also and their fig trees; and brake the trees of their borders.

³⁴ He spake, and the locust came, and the cankerworm, and that without number,

³⁵ And did eat up every herb in their land, and did eat up the fruit of their ground.

³⁶ He smote also all the firstborn in their land, the chief of all their strength.

³⁷ And he brought them forth with silver and gold: and there was not one feeble person among his tribes.

³⁸ Egypt was glad when they departed; for the fear of them had fallen upon them.

³⁹ He spread a cloud for a covering; and fire to give light in the night.

⁴⁰ They asked, and he brought quails, and satisfied them with the bread of heaven.

⁴¹ He opened the rock, and waters gushed out; they ran in the dry places like a river.

⁴² For he remembered his holy word, and Abraham his servant.

⁴³ And he brought forth his people with joy, and his chosen with singing.

⁴⁴ And he gave them the lands of the nations; and they took the labour of the peoples in possession:

⁴⁵ That they might keep his statutes, and observe his laws. Praise ye the LORD.
