1. Oh give thanks unto Jehovah, call upon his name; Make known among the peoples his doings.
|
1.
|
2. Sing unto him, sing praises unto him; Talk ye of all his marvelous works.
|
2.
|
3. Glory ye in his holy name: Let the heart of them rejoice that seek Jehovah.
|
3.
|
4. Seek ye Jehovah and his strength; Seek his face evermore.
|
4.
|
5. Remember his marvellous works that he hath done, His wonders, and the judgments of his mouth,
|
5.
|
6. O ye seed of Abraham his servant, Ye children of Jacob, his chosen ones.
|
6.
|
7. He is Jehovah our God: His judgments are in all the earth.
|
7.
|
8. He hath remembered his covenant for ever, The word which he commanded to a thousand generations,
|
8.
|
9. The covenant which he made with Abraham, And his oath unto Isaac,
|
9.
|
10. And confirmed the same unto Jacob for a statute, To Israel for an everlasting covenant,
|
10.
|
11. Saying, Unto thee will I give the land of Canaan, The lot of your inheritance;
|
11.
|
12. When they were but a few men in number, Yea, very few, and sojourners in it.
|
12.
|
13. And they went about from nation to nation, From one kingdom to another people.
|
13.
|
14. He suffered no man to do them wrong; Yea, he reproved kings for their sakes,
|
14.
|
15. Saying, Touch not mine anointed ones, And do my prophets no harm.
|
15.
|
16. And he called for a famine upon the land; He brake the whole staff of bread.
|
16.
|
17. He sent a man before them; Joseph was sold for a servant:
|
17.
|
18. His feet they hurt with fetters: He was laid in chains of iron,
|
18.
|
19. Until the time that his word came to pass, The word of Jehovah tried him.
|
19.
|
20. The king sent and loosed him; Even the ruler of peoples, and let him go free.
|
20.
|
21. He made him lord of his house, And ruler of all his substance;
|
21.
|
22. To bind his princes at his pleasure, And teach his elders wisdom.
|
22.
|
23. Israel also came into Egypt; And Jacob sojourned in the land of Ham.
|
23.
|
24. And he increased his people greatly, And made them stronger than their adversaries.
|
24.
|
25. He turned their heart to hate his people, To deal subtly with his servants.
|
25.
|
26. He sent Moses his servant, And Aaron whom he had chosen.
|
26.
|
27. They set among them his signs, And wonders in the land of Ham.
|
27.
|
28. He sent darkness, and made it dark; And they rebelled not against his words.
|
28.
|
29. He turned their waters into blood, And slew their fish.
|
29.
|
30. Their land swarmed with frogs In the chambers of their kings.
|
30.
|
31. He spake, and there came swarms of flies, And lice in all their borders.
|
31.
|
32. He gave them hail for rain, And flaming fire in their land.
|
32.
|
33. He smote their vines also and their fig-trees, And brake the trees of their borders.
|
33.
|
34. He spake, and the locust came, And the grasshopper, and that without number,
|
34.
|
35. And did eat up every herb in their land, And did eat up the fruit of their ground.
|
35.
|
36. He smote also all the first-born in their land, The chief of all their strength.
|
36.
|
37. And he brought them forth with silver and gold; And there was not one feeble person among his tribes.
|
37.
|
38. Egypt was glad when they departed; For the fear of them had fallen upon them.
|
38.
|
39. He spread a cloud for a covering, And fire to give light in the night.
|
39.
|
40. They asked, and he brought quails, And satisfied them with the bread of heaven.
|
40.
|
41. He opened the rock, and waters gushed out; They ran in the dry places like a river.
|
41.
|
42. For he remembered his holy word, And Abraham his servant.
|
42.
|
43. And he brought forth his people with joy, And his chosen with singing.
|
43.
|
44. And he gave them the lands of the nations; And they took the labor of the peoples in possession:
|
44.
|
45. That they might keep his statutes, And observe his laws. Praise ye Jehovah.
|
45.
