Psalm 105

The Complete Jewish Bible CJB

1 Give thanks to ADONAI! Call on his name! Make his deeds known among the peoples.

2 Sing to him, sing praises to him, talk about all his wonders.

3 Glory in his holy name; let those seeking ADONAI have joyful hearts.

4 Seek ADONAI and his strength; always seek his presence.

5 Remember the wonders he has done, his signs and his spoken rulings.

6 You descendants of Avraham his servant, you offspring of Ya'akov, his chosen ones,

7 he is ADONAI our God! His rulings are everywhere on earth.

8 He remembers his covenant forever, the word he commanded to a thousand generations,

9 the covenant he made with Avraham, the oath he swore to Yitz'chak,

10 and established as a law for Ya'akov, for Isra'el as an everlasting covenant:

11 "To you I will give the land of Kena'an as your allotted heritage."

12 When they were but few in number, and not only few, but aliens there too,

13 wandering from nation to nation, from this kingdom to that people,

14 he allowed no one to oppress them. Yes, for their sakes he rebuked even kings:

15 "Don't touch my anointed ones or do my prophets harm!"

16 He called down famine on the land, broke off all their food supply,

17 but sent a man ahead of them -Yosef, who was sold as a slave.

18 They shackled his feet with chains, and they bound him in irons;

19 until the time when his word proved true, God's utterance kept testing him.

20 The king sent and had him released, the ruler of peoples set him free;

21 he made him lord of his household, in charge of all he owned,

22 correcting his officers as he saw fit and teaching his counselors wisdom.

23 Then Isra'el too came into Egypt, Ya'akov lived as an alien in the land of Ham.

24 There God made his people very fruitful, made them too numerous for their foes,

25 whose hearts he turned to hate his people, and treat his servants unfairly.

26 He sent his servant Moshe and Aharon, whom he had chosen.

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

28 He sent darkness, and the land grew dark; they did not defy his word.

29 He turned their water into blood and caused their fish to die.

30 Their land swarmed with frogs, even in the royal chambers.

31 He spoke, and there came swarms of insects and lice throughout their land.

32 He gave them hail instead of rain, with fiery [lightning] throughout their land.

33 He struck their vines and fig trees, shattering trees all over their country.

34 He spoke, and locusts came, also grasshoppers without number;

35 they ate up everything green in their land, devoured the fruit of their ground. 896

36 He struck down all the firstborn in their land, the firstfruits of all their strength.

37 Then he led his people out, laden with silver and gold; among his tribes not one stumbled.

38 Egypt was happy to have them leave, because fear of [Isra'el] had seized them.

39 He spread out a cloud to screen them off and fire to give them light at night.

40 When they asked, he brought them quails and satisfied them with food from heaven.

41 He split a rock, and water gushed out, flowing as a river over the dry ground,

42 for he remembered his holy promise to his servant Avraham.

43 He led out his people with joy, his chosen ones with singing.

44 Then he gave them the lands of the nations, and they possessed what peoples had toiled to produce,

45 in order to obey his laws and follow his teachings. Halleluyah!

The Bible in Basic English BBE

1 O give praise to the Lord; give honour to his name, talking of his doings among the peoples.

2 Let your voice be sounding in songs and melody; let all your thoughts be of the wonder of his works.

3 Have glory in his holy name; let the hearts of those who are searching after the Lord be glad.

4 Let your search be for the Lord and for his strength; let your hearts ever be turned to him.

5 Keep in mind the great works which he has done; his wonders, and the decisions of his mouth;

6 O you seed of Abraham, his servant, you children of Jacob, his loved ones.

7 He is the Lord our God: he is judge of all the earth.

8 He has kept his agreement in mind for ever, the word which he gave for a thousand generations;

9 The agreement which he made with Abraham, and his oath to Isaac;

10 And he gave it to Jacob for a law, and to Israel for an eternal agreement;

11 Saying, To you will I give the land of Canaan, the measured line of your heritage:

12 When they were still small in number, and strange in the land;

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

14 He would not let anyone do them wrong; he even kept back kings because of them,

15 Saying, Put not your hand on those who have been marked with my holy oil, and do my prophets no wrong.

16 And he took away all food from the land, so that the people were without bread.

17 He sent a man before them, even Joseph, who was given as a servant for a price:

18 His feet were fixed in chains; his neck was put in iron bands;

19 Till the time when his word came true; he was tested by the word of the Lord.

20 The king sent men to take off his chains; even the ruler of the people, who let him go free.

21 He made him lord of his house, and ruler over everything he had;

22 To give his chiefs teaching at his pleasure, and so that his law-givers might get wisdom from him.

23 Then Israel came into Egypt, and Jacob was living in the land of Ham.

24 And his people were greatly increased, and became stronger than those who were against them.

25 Their hearts were turned to hate against his people, so that they made secret designs against them.

26 He sent Moses, his servant, and Aaron, the man of his selection.

27 He let his signs be seen among the people, and his wonders in the land of Ham.

28 He sent black night and made it dark; and they did not go against his word.

29 At his word their waters were turned to blood, and he sent death on all their fish.

30 Their land was full of frogs, even in the rooms of the king.

31 He gave the word, and there came the dog-fly, and insects over all the land.

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

33 He gave their vines and their fig-trees to destruction, and the trees of their land were broken down.

34 At his word the locusts came, and young locusts more than might be numbered,

35 And put an end to all the plants of their land, taking all the fruit of the earth for food.

36 He put to death the first child of every family in the land, the first-fruits of their strength.

37 He took his people out with silver and gold: there was not one feeble person among them.

38 Egypt was glad when they went; for the fear of them had come down on them.

39 A cloud was stretched over them for a cover; and he sent fire to give light in the night.

40 At the people's request he sent birds, and gave them the bread of heaven for food.

41 His hand made the rock open, and the waters came streaming out; they went down through the dry places like a river.

42 For he kept in mind his holy word, and Abraham, his servant.

43 And he took his people out with joy, the men of his selection with glad cries:

44 And gave them the lands of the nations; and they took the work of the peoples for a heritage;

45 So that they might keep his orders, and be true to his laws. Give praise to the Lord.
