105:1  Give ye thanks unto Jehovah, call upon his name; make known his acts among the peoples.
105:2  Sing unto him, sing psalms unto him; meditate upon all his wondrous works.
105:3  Glory ye in his holy name: let the heart of them rejoice that seek Jehovah.
105:4  Seek Jehovah and his strength, seek his face continually;
105:5  Remember his wondrous works which he hath done, his miracles and the judgments of his mouth:
105:6  Ye seed of Abraham his servant, ye sons of Jacob, his chosen ones.
105:7  He, Jehovah, is our God; his judgments are in all the earth.
105:8  He is ever mindful of his covenant, the word which he commanded to a thousand generations, --
105:9  Which he made with Abraham, and of his oath unto Isaac;
105:10  And he confirmed it unto Jacob for a statute, unto Israel for an everlasting covenant,
105:11  Saying, Unto thee will I give the land of Canaan, the lot of your inheritance;
105:12  When they were a few men in number, of small account, and strangers in it.
105:13  And they went from nation to nation, from one kingdom to another people.
105:14  He suffered no man to oppress them, and reproved kings for their sakes,
105:15  Saying, Touch not mine anointed ones, and do my prophets no harm.
105:16  And he called for a famine upon the land; he broke the whole staff of bread.
105:17  He sent a man before them: Joseph was sold for a bondman.
105:18  They afflicted his feet with fetters; his soul came into irons;
105:19  Until the time when what he said came about: the word of Jehovah tried him.
105:20  The king sent and loosed him the ruler of peoples and let him go free.
105:21  He made him lord of his house, and ruler over all his possessions:
105:22  To bind his princes at his pleasure, and teach his elders wisdom.
105:23  And Israel came into Egypt, and Jacob sojourned in the land of Ham.
105:24  And he made his people exceeding fruitful, and made them mightier than their oppressors.
105:25  He turned their heart to hate his people, to deal subtilly with his servants.
105:26  He sent Moses his servant, and Aaron whom he had chosen:
105:27  They set his signs among them, and miracles in the land of Ham.
105:28  He sent darkness, and made it dark; and they rebelled not against his word.
105:29  He turned their waters into blood, and caused their fish to die.
105:30  Their land swarmed with frogs, in the chambers of their kings.
105:31  He spoke, and there came dog-flies, and gnats in all their borders.
105:32  He gave them hail for rain, and flaming fire in their land;
105:33  And he smote their vines and their fig-trees, and broke the trees of their borders.
105:34  He spoke, and the locust came, and the cankerworm, even without number;
105:35  And they devoured every herb in their land, and ate up the fruit of their ground.
105:36  And he smote every firstborn in their land, the firstfruits of all their vigour.
105:37  And he brought them forth with silver and gold; and there was not one feeble among their tribes.
105:38  Egypt rejoiced at their departure; for the fear of them had fallen upon them.
105:39  He spread a cloud for a covering, and fire to give light in the night.
105:40  They asked, and he brought quails, and satisfied them with the bread of heaven.
105:41  He opened the rock, and waters gushed forth; they ran in the dry places like a river.
105:42  For he remembered his holy word, and Abraham his servant;
105:43  And he brought forth his people with gladness, his chosen with rejoicing;
105:44  And he gave them the lands of the nations, and they took possession of the labour of the peoples:
105:45  That they might keep his statutes, and observe his laws. Hallelujah!
