Psalms 105

New International Version NIV

1 Give praise to the LORD, proclaim his name; make known among the nations what he has done.

2 Sing to him, sing praise to him; tell of all his wonderful acts.

3 Glory in his holy name; let the hearts of those who seek the LORD rejoice.

4 Look to the LORD and his strength; seek his face always.

5 Remember the wonders he has done, his miracles, and the judgments he pronounced,

6 you his servants, the descendants of Abraham, his chosen ones, the children of Jacob.

7 He is the LORD our God; his judgments are in all the earth.

8 He remembers his covenant forever, the promise he made, for a thousand generations,

9 the covenant he made with Abraham, the oath he swore to Isaac.

10 He confirmed it to Jacob as a decree, to Israel as an everlasting covenant:

11 “To you I will give the land of Canaan as the portion you will inherit.”

12 When they were but few in number, few indeed, and strangers in it,

13 they wandered from nation to nation, from one kingdom to another.

14 He allowed no one to oppress them; for their sake he rebuked kings:

15 “Do not touch my anointed ones; do my prophets no harm.”

16 He called down famine on the land and destroyed all their supplies of food;

17 and he sent a man before them— Joseph, sold as a slave.

18 They bruised his feet with shackles, his neck was put in irons,

19 till what he foretold came to pass, till the word of the LORD proved him true.

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

21 He made him master of his household, ruler over all he possessed,

22 to instruct his princes as he pleased and teach his elders wisdom.

23 Then Israel entered Egypt; Jacob resided as a foreigner in the land of Ham.

24 The LORD made his people very fruitful; he made them too numerous for their foes,

25 whose hearts he turned to hate his people, to conspire against his servants.

26 He sent Moses his servant, and Aaron, whom he had chosen.

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

28 He sent darkness and made the land dark— for had they not rebelled against his words?

29 He turned their waters into blood, causing their fish to die.

30 Their land teemed with frogs, which went up into the bedrooms of their rulers.

31 He spoke, and there came swarms of flies, and gnats throughout their country.

32 He turned their rain into hail, with lightning throughout their land;

33 he struck down their vines and fig trees and shattered the trees of their country.

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

35 they ate up every green thing in their land, ate up the produce of their soil.

36 Then he struck down all the firstborn in their land, the firstfruits of all their manhood.

37 He brought out Israel, laden with silver and gold, and from among their tribes no one faltered.

38 Egypt was glad when they left, because dread of Israel had fallen on them.

39 He spread out a cloud as a covering, and a fire to give light at night.

40 They asked, and he brought them quail; he fed them well with the bread of heaven.

41 He opened the rock, and water gushed out; it flowed like a river in the desert.

42 For he remembered his holy promise given to his servant Abraham.

43 He brought out his people with rejoicing, his chosen ones with shouts of joy;

44 he gave them the lands of the nations, and they fell heir to what others had toiled for—

45 that they might keep his precepts and observe his laws. Praise the LORD.

Common English Bible CEB

1 Give thanks to the LORD; call upon his name; make his deeds known to all people!

2 Sing to God; sing praises to the Lord; dwell on all his wondrous works!

3 Give praise to God's holy name! Let the hearts rejoice of all those seeking the LORD!

4 Pursue the LORD and his strength; seek his face always!

5 Remember the wondrous works he has done, all his marvelous works, and the justice he declared—

6 you who are the offspring of Abraham, his servant, and the children of Jacob, his chosen ones.

7 The LORD—he is our God. His justice is everywhere throughout the whole world.

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

9 which he made with Abraham, the solemn pledge he swore to Isaac.

10 God set it up as binding law for Jacob, as an eternal covenant for Israel,

11 promising, "I hereby give you the land of Canaan as your allotted inheritance."

12 When they were few in number— insignificant, just immigrants—

13 wandering from nation to nation, from one kingdom to the next,

14 God didn't let anyone oppress them. God punished kings for their sake:

15 "Don't touch my anointed ones; don't harm my prophets!"

16 When God called for a famine in the land, destroying every source of food,

17 he sent a man ahead of them, who was sold as a slave: it was Joseph.

18 Joseph's feet hurt in his shackles; his neck was in an iron collar,

19 until what he predicted actually happened, until what the LORD had said proved him true.

20 The king sent for Joseph and set him free; the ruler of many people released him.

21 The king made Joseph master of his house and ruler over everything he owned,

22 to make sure his princes acted according to his will, and to teach wisdom to his advisors.

23 That's how Israel came to Egypt, how Jacob became an immigrant in the land of Ham.

24 God made his people very fruitful, more powerful than their enemies,

25 whose hearts God changed so they hated his people and dealt shrewdly with his servants.

26 God sent Moses his servant and the one he chose, Aaron.

27 They put God's signs on Egypt, his marvelous works on the land of Ham.

28 God sent darkness, and it became dark, but the Egyptians rejected his word.

29 God turned their waters into blood and killed their fish.

30 God made their land swarm with frogs— even in the bedrooms of their king!

31 God spoke, and the insects came— gnats throughout their whole country!

32 God turned their rain into hail along with lightning flashes throughout their land.

33 God destroyed their vines and their fig trees; shattered the trees of their countryside.

34 God spoke, and the locusts came— countless grasshoppers came!

35 They devoured all the plants in their land; they devoured the fruit of their soil.

36 God struck down all the oldest sons throughout their land; struck down their very pride and joy.

37 Then God brought Israel out, filled with silver and gold; not one of its tribes stumbled.

38 Egypt celebrated when they left, because the dread of Israel had come upon them.

39 God spread out clouds as a covering; gave lightning to provide light at night.

40 The people asked, and God brought quail; God filled them full with food from heaven.

41 God opened the rock and out gushed water— flowing like a river through the desert!

42 Because God remembered his holy promise to Abraham his servant,

43 God brought his people out with rejoicing, his chosen ones with songs of joy.

44 God gave them the lands of other nations; they inherited the wealth of many peoples—

45 all so that they would keep his laws and observe his instructions. Praise the LORD!
