<< Psalm 105 >>
King James Bible: Purple Letter Edition | |
1O
h, give thanks unto the
LORD; call upon
His name; make known
His deeds among the people.
2Sing unto
Him, sing psalms unto
Him; talk ye of all
His wondrous works.
3Glory ye in
His holy
name; let the heart of them rejoice who seek the
LORD.
4Seek the
LORD, and
His strength; seek
His face evermore.
5Remember
His marvelous works that
He hath done;
His wonders, and the judgments of
His mouth;
6O ye seed of Abraham,
His servant, ye children of Jacob,
His chosen.
7He is the
LORD our
God;
His judgments
are in all the earth.
8He hath remembered
His covenant forever, the word
which He commanded to a thousand generations.
9Which
covenant He made with Abraham, and
His oath unto Isaac,
10And confirmed the same unto Jacob for a law,
and to Israel
for an everlasting covenant,
11Saying, Unto thee will
I give the land of Canaan, the lot of your inheritance;
12When they were
but a few men in number; yea, very few, and
sojourners in it.
13When they went from one nation to another, from
one kingdom to another people,
14He permitted {suffered} no man to do them wrong; yea,
He reproved kings for their sakes,
15Saying, Touch not
Mine anointed, and do
My prophets no harm.
16Moreover,
He called for a famine upon the land;
He broke the whole staff of bread.
17He sent a man before them,
even Joseph,
who was sold for a servant,
18Whose feet they hurt with fetters; he was laid in iron,
19Until the time that his word came; the word of the
LORD tested {tried} him.
20The king sent and loosed him,
even the ruler of the people, and let him go free.
21He made him lord of his house, and ruler of all his substance,
22To bind his princes at his pleasure; and teach his
elders {senators} wisdom.
23Israel also came into Egypt; and Jacob sojourned in the land of Ham.
24And
He increased
His people greatly; and made them stronger than their enemies.
25He turned their heart to hate
His people, to
deal {part}
subtly with
His servants.
26He sent Moses,
His servant;
and Aaron, whom
He had chosen.
27They showed
His signs among them, and wonders in the land of Ham.
28He sent darkness, and made it dark; and they rebelled not against
His word.
29He turned their waters into blood, and slew their fish.
30Their land brought forth frogs in abundance, in the chambers of their kings.
31He spoke, and there came
various {divers} sorts of flies,
and lice in all their
borders.
32He gave them hail for rain,
and flaming fire in their land.
33He smote their vines also and their fig trees; and broke the trees of their
borders.
34He spoke, and the locusts came, and caterpillars, and that without number,
35And did eat up all the herbs in their land, and devoured the fruit of their ground.
36He smote also all the first-born in their land, the chief of all their strength.
37He brought them forth also with silver and gold; and
there was not one feeble
person among their tribes.
38Egypt was glad when they departed; for the fear of them fell upon them.
39He spread a
cloud for a covering; and
fire to give light in the night.
40The people asked, and
He brought quails, 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.
42For
He remembered
His holy promise,
and Abraham,
His servant.
43And
He brought forth
His people with joy,
and His chosen with gladness,
44And gave them the lands of the
nations {heathen}; and they inherited the labor of the people
s,
45That they might observe
His statutes, and keep
His laws. Praise ye the
LORD.
