⁷ He is the Lord our God;
    his ^(K)judgments are in all the earth.
⁸ He ^(L)remembers his covenant forever,
    the word that he commanded, for ^(M)a thousand generations,
^9 (N)the covenant that he made with Abraham,
    his ^(O)sworn promise to Isaac,
¹⁰ which he confirmed to ^(P)Jacob as a statute,
    to Israel as an everlasting covenant,
¹¹ saying, ^(Q)“To you I will give the land of Canaan
    as ^(R)your portion for an inheritance.”

¹² When they were ^(S)few in number,
    of little account, and ^(T)sojourners in it,
¹³ wandering from nation to nation,
    from one kingdom to another people,
¹⁴ he ^(U)allowed no one to oppress them;
    he ^(V)rebuked kings on their account,
¹⁵ saying, ^(W)“Touch not my anointed ones,
    do my prophets no harm!”

¹⁶ When he ^(X)summoned a famine on the land
    and ^(Y)broke all supply^[a] of bread,
¹⁷ he had ^(Z)sent a man ahead of them,
    Joseph, who was ^(AA)sold as a slave.
¹⁸ His ^(AB)feet were hurt with fetters;
    his neck was put in a collar of iron;
¹⁹ until ^(AC)what he had said came to pass,
    the word of the Lord ^(AD)tested him.
^20 (AE)The king sent and ^(AF)released him;
    the ruler of the peoples set him free;
²¹ he ^(AG)made him lord of his house
    and ruler of all his possessions,
²² to bind^[b] his princes at his pleasure
    and to teach his elders wisdom.

²³ Then ^(AH)Israel came to Egypt;
    Jacob ^(AI)sojourned in ^(AJ)the land of Ham.
²⁴ And the Lord ^(AK)made his people very fruitful
    and made them stronger than their foes.
²⁵ He ^(AL)turned their hearts to hate his people,
    to ^(AM)deal craftily with his servants.

²⁶ He ^(AN)sent Moses, his servant,
    and Aaron, ^(AO)whom he had chosen.
^27 (AP)They performed his signs among them
    and miracles in ^(AQ)the land of Ham.
²⁸ He ^(AR)sent darkness, and made the land dark;
    they ^(AS)did not rebel^[c] against his words.
²⁹ He turned their waters into blood
    and ^(AT)caused their fish to die.
³⁰ Their land swarmed with frogs,
    even in ^(AU)the chambers of their kings.
³¹ He spoke, and there came ^(AV)swarms of flies,
    ^(AW)and gnats throughout their country.
³² He gave them hail for rain,
    and fiery ^(AX)lightning bolts through their land.
³³ He struck down their vines and fig trees,
    and ^(AY)shattered the trees of their country.
³⁴ He spoke, and the ^(AZ)locusts came,
    young locusts without number,
³⁵ which devoured all the vegetation in their land
    and ate up the fruit of their ground.
³⁶ He ^(BA)struck down all the firstborn in their land,
    ^(BB)the firstfruits of all their strength.

³⁷ Then he brought out Israel with ^(BC)silver and gold,
    and there was none among his tribes who stumbled.
^38 (BD)Egypt was glad when they departed,
    for ^(BE)dread of them had fallen upon it.

³⁹ He ^(BF)spread a cloud for a covering,
    and fire to give light by night.
^40 (BG)They asked, and he ^(BH)brought quail,
    and gave them ^(BI)bread from heaven in abundance.
⁴¹ He opened the rock, and ^(BJ)water gushed out;
    it flowed through ^(BK)the desert like a river.
⁴² For he ^(BL)remembered his holy promise,
    and ^(BM)Abraham, his servant.

⁴³ So he brought his people out with joy,
    his ^(BN)chosen ones with ^(BO)singing.
⁴⁴ And he ^(BP)gave them the lands of the nations,
    and they took possession of the fruit of the peoples' toil,
⁴⁵ that they might ^(BQ)keep his statutes
    and ^(BR)observe his laws.
^(BS)Praise the Lord!
