Psalm 105 (AKJV)

1O give thanks to the LORD; call on his name: make known his deeds among the people.Give thanks to the LORD, call upon His name; make known His deeds among the nations.

2Sing to him, sing psalms to him: talk you of all his wondrous works.Sing to Him, sing praises to Him; tell of all His wonders.

3Glory you in his holy name: let the heart of them rejoice that seek the LORD.Glory in His holy name; let the hearts of those who seek the LORD rejoice.

4Seek the LORD, and his strength: seek his face ever more.Seek out the LORD and His strength; seek His face always.

5Remember his marvelous works that he has done; his wonders, and the judgments of his mouth;Remember the wonders He has done, His marvels, and the judgments He has pronounced,

6O you seed of Abraham his servant, you children of Jacob his chosen.O offspring of His servant Abraham, O sons of Jacob, His chosen ones.

7He is the LORD our God: his judgments are in all the earth.He is the LORD our God; His judgments carry throughout the earth.

8He has remembered his covenant for ever, the word which he commanded to a thousand generations.He remembers His covenant forever, the word He ordained for a thousand generations—

9Which covenant he made with Abraham, and his oath to Isaac;the covenant He made with Abraham, and the oath He swore to Isaac.

10And confirmed the same to Jacob for a law, and to Israel for an everlasting covenant:He confirmed it to Jacob as a decree, to Israel as an everlasting covenant:

11Saying, To you will I give the land of Canaan, the lot of your inheritance:“I will give you the land of Canaan as the portion of your inheritance.”

12When they were but a few men in number; yes, very few, and strangers in it.When they were few in number, few indeed, and strangers in the land,

13When they went from one nation to another, from one kingdom to another people;they wandered from nation to nation, from one kingdom to another.

14He suffered no man to do them wrong: yes, he reproved kings for their sakes;He let no man oppress them; He rebuked kings on their behalf:

15Saying, Touch not my anointed, and do my prophets no harm.“Do not touch My anointed ones! Do no harm to My prophets!”

16Moreover he called for a famine on the land: he broke the whole staff of bread.He called down famine on the land and cut off all their supplies of food.

17He sent a man before them, even Joseph, who was sold for a servant:He sent a man before them—Joseph, sold as a slave.

18Whose feet they hurt with fetters: he was laid in iron:They bruised his feet with shackles and placed his neck in irons,

19Until the time that his word came: the word of the LORD tried him.until his prediction came true and the word of the LORD proved him right.

20The king sent and loosed him; even the ruler of the people, and let him go free.The king sent and released him; the ruler of peoples set him free.

21He made him lord of his house, and ruler of all his substance:He made him master of his household, ruler over all his substance,

22To bind his princes at his pleasure; and teach his senators wisdom.to instruct his princes as he pleased and teach his elders wisdom.

23Israel also came into Egypt; and Jacob sojourned in the land of Ham.Then Israel entered Egypt; Jacob dwelt in the land of Ham.

24And he increased his people greatly; and made them stronger than their enemies.And the LORD made His people very fruitful, more numerous than their foes,

25He turned their heart to hate his people, to deal subtly with his servants.whose hearts He turned to hate His people, to conspire against His servants.

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

27They showed his signs among them, and wonders in the land of Ham.They performed His miraculous signs among them, and wonders in the land of Ham.

28He sent darkness, and made it dark; and they rebelled not against his word.He sent darkness, and it became dark—yet they defied His words.

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

30Their land brought forth frogs in abundance, in the chambers of their kings.Their land teemed with frogs, even in their royal chambers.

31He spoke, and there came divers sorts of flies, and lice in all their coasts.He spoke, and insects swarmed—gnats throughout their country.

32He gave them hail for rain, and flaming fire in their land.He gave them hail for rain, with lightning throughout their land.

33He smote their vines also and their fig trees; and broke the trees of their coasts.He struck their vines and fig trees and shattered the trees of their country.

34He spoke, and the locusts came, and caterpillars, and that without number,He spoke, and the locusts came—young locusts without number.

35And did eat up all the herbs in their land, and devoured the fruit of their ground.They devoured every plant in their land and consumed the produce of their soil.

36He smote also all the firstborn in their land, the chief of all their strength.Then He struck all the firstborn in their land, the firstfruits of all their vigor.

37He brought them forth also with silver and gold: and there was not one feeble person among their tribes.He brought Israel out with silver and gold, and none among His tribes stumbled.

38Egypt was glad when they departed: for the fear of them fell on them.Egypt was glad when they departed, for the dread of Israel had fallen on them.

39He spread a cloud for a covering; and fire to give light in the night.He spread a cloud as a covering and a fire to light up the night.

40The people asked, and he brought quails, and satisfied them with the bread of heaven.They asked, and He brought quail and satisfied them with the bread of heaven.

41He opened the rock, and the waters gushed out; they ran in the dry places like a river.He opened a rock, and water gushed out; it flowed like a river in the desert.

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

43And he brought forth his people with joy, and his chosen with gladness:He brought forth His people with rejoicing, His chosen with shouts of joy.

44And gave them the lands of the heathen: and they inherited the labor of the people;He gave them the lands of the nations, that they might inherit the fruit of others’ labor,

45That they might observe his statutes, and keep his laws. Praise you the LORD.that they might keep His statutes and obey His laws. Hallelujah!
