Psalm 105

¹ Give ye thanks to Jehovah — call ye in His name, Make known among the peoples His acts.

² Sing ye to Him — sing praise to Him, Meditate ye on all His wonders.

³ Boast yourselves in His Holy Name, The heart of those seeking Jehovah rejoiceth.

⁴ Seek ye Jehovah and His strength, Seek ye His face continually.

⁵ Remember His wonders that He did, His signs and the judgments of His mouth.

⁶ O seed of Abraham, His servant, O sons of Jacob, His chosen ones.

⁷ He [is] Jehovah our God, In all the earth [are] His judgments.

⁸ He hath remembered to the age His covenant, The word He commanded to a thousand generations,

⁹ That He hath made with Abraham, And His oath to Isaac,

¹⁰ And doth establish it to Jacob for a statute, To Israel — a covenant age-during,

¹¹ Saying, ‘To thee I give the land of Canaan, The portion of your inheritance,’

¹² In their being few in number, But a few, and sojourners in it.

¹³ And they go up and down, from nation unto nation, From a kingdom unto another people.

¹⁴ He hath not suffered any to oppress them And He reproveth for their sakes kings.

¹⁵ ‘Strike not against Mine anointed, And to My prophets do not evil.’

¹⁶ And He calleth a famine on the land, The whole staff of bread He hath broken.

¹⁷ He hath sent before them a man, For a servant hath Joseph been sold.

¹⁸ They have afflicted with fetters his feet, Iron hath entered his soul,

¹⁹ Till the time of the coming of His word The saying of Jehovah hath tried him.

²⁰ The king hath sent, and looseth him, The ruler of the peoples, and draweth him out.

²¹ He hath made him lord of his house, And ruler over all his possessions.

²² To bind his chiefs at his pleasure, And his elders he maketh wise.

²³ And Israel cometh in to Egypt, And Jacob hath sojourned in the land of Ham.

²⁴ And He maketh His people very fruitful, And maketh it mightier than its adversaries.

²⁵ He turned their heart to hate His people, To conspire against His servants.

²⁶ He hath sent Moses His servant, Aaron whom He had fixed on.

²⁷ They have set among them the matters of His signs, And wonders in the land of Ham.

²⁸ He hath sent darkness, and it is dark, And they have not provoked His word.

²⁹ He hath turned their waters to blood, And putteth to death their fish.

³⁰ Teemed hath their land [with] frogs, In the inner chambers of their kings.

³¹ He hath said, and the beetle cometh, Lice into all their border.

³² He hath made their showers hail, A flaming fire [is] in their land.

³³ And He smiteth their vine and their fig, And shivereth the trees of their border.

³⁴ He hath said, and the locust cometh, And the cankerworm — innumerable,

³⁵ And it consumeth every herb in their land, And it consumeth the fruit of their ground.

³⁶ And He smiteth every first-born in their land, The first-fruit of all their strength,

³⁷ And bringeth them out with silver and gold, And there is not in its tribes a feeble one.

³⁸ Rejoiced hath Egypt in their going forth, For their fear had fallen upon them.

³⁹ He hath spread a cloud for a covering, And fire to enlighten the night.

⁴⁰ They have asked, and He bringeth quails, And [with] bread of heaven satisfieth them.

⁴¹ He hath opened a rock, and waters issue, They have gone on in dry places — a river.

⁴² For He hath remembered His holy word, With Abraham His servant,

⁴³ And He bringeth forth His people with joy, With singing His chosen ones.

⁴⁴ And He giveth to them the lands of nations, And the labour of peoples they possess,

⁴⁵ That they may observe His statutes, And His laws may keep. Praise ye Jehovah!
