Psalm 105

Revised Standard Version RSV

1 O give thanks to the LORD, call on his name, make known his deeds among the peoples!

2 Sing to him, sing praises to him, tell of all his wonderful works!

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

4 Seek the LORD and his strength, seek his presence continually!

5 Remember the wonderful works that he has done, his miracles, and the judgments he uttered,

6 O offspring of Abraham his servant, sons of Jacob, his chosen ones!

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

8 He is mindful of his covenant for ever, of the word that he commanded, for a thousand generations,

9 the covenant which he made with Abraham, his sworn promise to Isaac,

10 which he confirmed to Jacob as a statute, to Israel as an everlasting covenant,

11 saying, "To you I will give the land of Canaan as your portion for an inheritance."

12 When they were few in number, of little account, and sojourners in it,

13 wandering from nation to nation, from one kingdom to another people,

14 he allowed no one to oppress them; he rebuked kings on their account,

15 saying, "Touch not my anointed ones, do my prophets no harm!"

16 When he summoned a famine on the land, and broke every staff of bread,

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

18 His feet were hurt with fetters, his neck was put in a collar of iron;

19 until what he had said came to pass the word of the LORD tested him.

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

21 he made him lord of his house, and ruler of all his possessions,

22 to instruct his princes at his pleasure, and to teach his elders wisdom.

23 Then Israel came to Egypt; Jacob sojourned in the land of Ham.

24 And the LORD made his people very fruitful, and made them stronger than their foes.

25 He turned their hearts to hate his people, to deal craftily with his servants.

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

27 They wrought his signs among them, and miracles in the land of Ham.

28 He sent darkness, and made the land dark; they rebelled against his words.

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

30 Their land swarmed with frogs, even in the chambers of their kings.

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

32 He gave them hail for rain, and lightning that flashed through their land.

33 He smote their vines and fig trees, and shattered the trees of their country.

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

35 which devoured all the vegetation in their land, and ate up the fruit of their ground.

36 He smote all the first-born in their land, the first issue of all their strength.

37 Then he led forth Israel with silver and gold, and there was none among his tribes who stumbled.

38 Egypt was glad when they departed, for dread of them had fallen upon it.

39 He spread a cloud for a covering, and fire to give light by night.

40 They asked, and he brought quails, and gave them bread from heaven in abundance.

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

42 For he remembered his holy promise, and Abraham his servant.

43 So he led forth his people with joy, his chosen ones with singing.

44 And he gave them the lands of the nations; and they took possession of the fruit of the peoples' toil,

45 to the end that they should keep his statutes, and observe his laws. Praise the LORD!

35 they ate all the plants in the land; they ate all the crops.

42 He remembered his sacred promise to Abraham his servant.

43 So he led his chosen people out, and they sang and shouted for joy.

44 He gave them the lands of other peoples and let them take over their fields,

45 so that his people would obey his laws and keep all his commands. Praise the Lord!
