Psalms 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!⋮
