Psalms:105
Seeker Overlay ON
*
Oh ,
give thanks to the LORD !
Call upon His name ;
Make known His deeds among the peoples !
*
Sing to Him ,
sing psalms to Him ;
Talk of all His wondrous works !
*
Glory in His holy name ;
Let the hearts of those rejoice who seek the LORD !
*
Seek the LORD and His strength ;
Seek His face evermore !
*
Remember His marvelous works which He has done ,
His wonders ,
and the judgments of His mouth ,
*
O seed of Abraham His servant ,
You children of Jacob ,
His chosen ones !
*
He is the LORD our God ;
His judgments are in all the earth .
*
He remembers His covenant forever ,
The word which He commanded ,
for a thousand generations ,
*
The covenant which He made with Abraham ,
And His oath to Isaac ,
*
And confirmed it to Jacob for a statute ,
To Israel as an everlasting covenant ,
*
Saying , "
To you I will give the land of Canaan As the allotment of your inheritance ,"
*
When they were few in number ,
Indeed very few ,
and strangers in it .
*
When they went from one nation to another ,
From one kingdom to another people ,
*
He permitted no one to do them wrong ;
Yes ,
He rebuked kings for their sakes ,
*
Saying , "
Do not touch My anointed ones ,
And do My prophets no harm ".
*
Moreover He called for a famine in the land ;
He destroyed all the provision of bread .
*
He sent a man before them --
Joseph--who was sold as a slave .
*
They hurt his feet with fetters ,
He was laid in irons .
*
Until the time that his word came to pass ,
The word of the LORD tested him .
*
The king sent and released him ,
The ruler of the people let him go free .
*
He made him lord of his house ,
And ruler of all his possessions ,
*
To bind his princes at his pleasure ,
And teach his elders wisdom .
*
Israel also came into Egypt ,
And Jacob dwelt in the land of Ham .
*
He increased His people greatly ,
And made them stronger than their enemies .
*
He turned their heart to hate His people ,
To deal craftily with His servants .
*
He sent Moses His servant ,
And Aaron whom He had chosen .
*
They performed His signs among them ,
And wonders in the land of Ham .
*
He sent darkness ,
and made it dark ;
And they did not rebel against His word .
*
He turned their waters into blood ,
And killed their fish .
*
Their land abounded with frogs ,
Even in the chambers of their kings .
*
He spoke ,
and there came swarms of flies ,
And lice in all their territory .
*
He gave them hail for rain ,
And flaming fire in their land .
*
He struck their vines also ,
and their fig trees ,
And splintered the trees of their territory .
*
He spoke ,
and locusts came ,
Young locusts without number ,
*
And ate up all the vegetation in their land ,
And devoured the fruit of their ground .
*
He also destroyed all the firstborn in their land ,
The first of all their strength .
*
He also brought them out with silver and gold ,
And there was none feeble among His tribes .
*
Egypt was glad when they departed ,
For the fear of them had fallen upon them .
*
He spread a cloud for a covering ,
And fire to give light in the night .
*
The people asked ,
and He brought quail ,
And satisfied them with the bread of heaven .
*
He opened the rock ,
and water gushed out ;
It ran in the dry places like a river .
*
For He remembered His holy promise ,
And Abraham His servant .
*
He brought out His people with joy ,
His chosen ones with gladness .
*
He gave them the lands of the Gentiles ,
And they inherited the labor of the nations ,
*
That they might observe His statutes And keep His laws .
Praise the LORD !
