Book of Psalms, No. 105
No. 105 of the Psalms
call on his name,
make known his deeds among the peoples!
tell of all his wonderful works!
let the hearts of those who seek the LORD rejoice!
seek his presence continually!
his miracles, and the judgments he uttered,
sons of Jacob, his chosen ones!
his judgments are in all the earth.
of the word that he commanded, for a thousand generations,
his sworn promise to Isaac,
to Israel as an everlasting covenant,
as your portion for an inheritance.”
of little account, and sojourners in it,
from one kingdom to another people,
he rebuked kings on their account,
do my prophets no harm!”
and broke every staff of bread,
Joseph, who was sold as a slave.
his neck was put in a collar of iron;
the word of the LORD tested him.
the ruler of the peoples set him free;
and ruler of all his possessions,
and to teach his elders wisdom.
Jacob sojourned in the land of Ham.
and made them stronger than their foes.
to deal craftily with his servants.
and Aaron whom he had chosen.
and miracles in the land of Ham.
they rebelled[b] against his words.
and caused their fish to die.
even in the chambers of their kings.
and gnats throughout their country.
and lightning that flashed through their land.
and shattered the trees of their country.
and young locusts without number;
and ate up the fruit of their ground.
the first issue of all their strength.
and there was none among his tribes who stumbled.
for dread of them had fallen upon it.
and fire to give light by night.
and gave them bread from heaven in abundance.
it flowed through the desert like a river.
and Abraham his servant.
his chosen ones with singing.
and they took possession of the fruit of the peoples’ toil,
and observe his laws.
Praise the LORD!FOOTNOTES
