Psalms - Chapter 105 | New King James Version

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