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