105:002 Sing to him, sing praises to him! Tell of all his marvelous works.
105:003 Glory in his holy name. Let the heart of those who
seek Yahweh rejoice.
105:004 Seek Yahweh and his strength. Seek his face forever more.
105:005 Remember his marvelous works that he has done; his wonders,
and the judgments of his mouth,
105:006 you seed of Abraham, his servant, you children of Jacob,
his chosen ones.
105:007 He is Yahweh, our God. His judgments are in all the earth.
105:008 He has remembered his covenant forever, the word which he commanded
to a thousand generations,
105:009 the covenant which he made with Abraham, his oath to Isaac,
105:010 and confirmed the same to Jacob for a statute; to Israel
for an everlasting covenant,
105:011 saying, "To you I will give the land of Canaan, the lot
of your inheritance;"
105:012 when they were but a few men in number, yes, very few,
and foreigners in it.
105:013 They went about from nation to nation, from one kingdom
to another people.
105:014 He allowed no one to do them wrong. Yes, he reproved kings
for their sakes,
105:015 "Don't touch my anointed ones! Do my prophets no harm!"
105:016 He called for a famine on the land. He destroyed the food supplies.
105:017 He sent a man before them. Joseph was sold for a slave.
105:018 They bruised his feet with shackles. His neck was locked in irons,
105:019 until the time that his word happened, and Yahweh's word
proved him true.
105:020 The king sent and freed him; even the ruler of peoples,
and let him go free.
105:021 He made him lord of his house, and ruler of all of his possessions;
105:022 to discipline his princes at his pleasure, and to teach
his elders wisdom.
105:023 Israel also came into Egypt. Jacob sojourned in the land of Ham.
105:024 He increased his people greatly, and made them stronger
than their adversaries.
105:025 He turned their heart to hate his people, to conspire
against his servants.
105:026 He sent Moses, his servant, and Aaron, whom he had chosen.
105:027 They performed miracles among them, and wonders in the land of Ham.
105:028 He sent darkness, and made it dark. They didn't rebel
against his words.
105:029 He turned their waters into blood, and killed their fish.
105:030 Their land swarmed with frogs, even in the chambers of their kings.
105:031 He spoke, and swarms of flies came, and lice in all their borders.
105:032 He gave them hail for rain, with lightning in their land.
105:033 He struck their vines and also their fig trees, and shattered
the trees of their country.
105:034 He spoke, and the locusts came, and the grasshoppers, without number,
105:035 ate up every plant in their land; and ate up the fruit
of their ground.
105:036 He struck also all the firstborn in their land, the first fruits
of all their manhood.
105:037 He brought them forth with silver and gold.
