 神和他的子民(A)

105 你們要稱謝耶和華,求告他的名,
    在萬民中傳揚他的作為!
要向他唱詩,向他歌頌,
    述說他一切奇妙的作為!
要誇耀他的聖名!
    願尋求耶和華的人心中歡喜!
要尋求耶和華與他的能力,
    時常尋求他的面。
5-6 他僕人亞伯拉罕的後裔,
    他所揀選雅各的子孫哪,
要記念他奇妙的作為和他的奇事,
    並他口中的判語。

他是耶和華—我們的 神,
    全地都有他的判斷。
他記念他的約,直到永遠;
    記念他吩咐的話,直到千代,
就是與亞伯拉罕所立的約,
    以撒所起的誓。
10 他將這約向雅各定為律例,
    以色列定為永遠的約,
11 說:「我必將迦南地賜給你,
    作你們應得的產業。」

12 當時,他們人丁有限,
    數目稀少,在那地寄居。
13 他們從這邦遊到那邦,
    從這國去到另一民族。
14 他不容人欺負他們,
    為他們的緣故責備君王:
15 「不可傷害我的受膏者,
    也不可惡待我的先知。」

16 他命饑荒降在那地,
    斷絕日用的糧食[a]
17 在他們以先差遣一個人前往,
    約瑟被賣為奴。
18 人用腳鐐傷他的腳,
    他被鐵的項鏈捆鎖。
19 耶和華的話試煉他,
    直等所說的應驗了。
20 王差人將他解開,
    治理萬民的把他釋放,
21 立他為王家之主,
    掌管他一切所有的,
22 使他隨意捆綁他的臣宰,
    將智慧教導他的長老。

23 以色列也到了埃及
    雅各地寄居。
24 耶和華使他的百姓生養眾多,
    使他們比敵人強盛,
25 他使敵人的心轉去恨他的百姓,
    用詭計待他的僕人。

26 他差遣他的僕人摩西
    和他所揀選的亞倫
27 在敵人中間顯他的神蹟,
    地顯他的奇事。
28 他差遣黑暗,就有黑暗;
    他們沒有違背他的話。
29 他使埃及的水變為血,
    令他們的魚死了。
30 在他們的地上,青蛙多多滋生,
    王宮的內室也是如此。
31 他一吩咐,蒼蠅就成羣飛來,
    並有蚊子進入他們四境。
32 他給他們降下冰雹為雨,
    在他們的地上降下火焰。
33 他擊打他們的葡萄樹和無花果樹,
    毀壞他們境內的樹木。
34 他一吩咐,就有蝗蟲蝻子上來,
    不計其數,
35 吃光他們地上各樣的菜蔬,
    吞盡他們田地的出產。
36 他又擊殺他們國內[b]所有的長子,
    就是他們強壯時頭生的。

37 他卻帶領自己的百姓帶着金子銀子出來,
    他支派中沒有一個走不動的。
38 他們出來的時候,埃及人就歡喜;
    因為埃及人懼怕他們。
39 他鋪張雲彩當遮蔽,
    夜間使火光照。
40 他們祈求,他就使鵪鶉飛來,
    並用天上的糧食使他們飽足。
41 他敲開磐石,水就湧出;
    在乾旱之處,水流成河。
42 這都因他記念他的聖言
    和他的僕人亞伯拉罕

43 他帶領自己的百姓歡樂而出,
    帶領自己的選民歡呼前往。
44 他把列國的地賜給他們,
    他們就承受萬民勞碌得來的,
45 好讓他們遵他的律例,
    守他的律法。

哈利路亞!

The Eternal Faithfulness of the Lord(A)

105 Oh, (B)give thanks to the Lord!
Call upon His name;
(C)Make known His deeds among the peoples!
Sing to Him, sing psalms to Him;
(D)Talk of all His wondrous works!
Glory in His holy name;
Let the hearts of those rejoice who seek the Lord!
Seek the Lord and His strength;
(E)Seek His face evermore!
(F)Remember His marvelous works which He has done,
His wonders, and the judgments of His mouth,
O seed of Abraham His servant,
You children of Jacob, His chosen ones!

He is the Lord our God;
(G)His judgments are in all the earth.
He (H)remembers His covenant forever,
The word which He commanded, for a thousand generations,
(I)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, (J)“To you I will give the land of Canaan
As the allotment of your inheritance,”
12 (K)When they were few in number,
Indeed very few, (L)and strangers in it.

13 When they went from one nation to another,
From one kingdom to another people,
14 (M)He permitted no one to do them wrong;
Yes, (N)He rebuked kings for their sakes,
15 Saying, “Do not touch My anointed ones,
And do My prophets no harm.”

16 Moreover (O)He called for a famine in the land;
He destroyed all the (P)provision of bread.
17 (Q)He sent a man before them—
Joseph—who (R)was sold as a slave.
18 (S)They hurt his feet with fetters,
[a]He was laid in irons.
19 Until the time that his word came to pass,
(T)The word of the Lord tested him.
20 (U)The king sent and released him,
The ruler of the people let him go free.
21 (V)He made him lord of his house,
And ruler of all his possessions,
22 To [b]bind his princes at his pleasure,
And teach his elders wisdom.

23 (W)Israel also came into Egypt,
And Jacob dwelt (X)in the land of Ham.
24 (Y)He increased His people greatly,
And made them stronger than their enemies.
25 (Z)He turned their heart to hate His people,
To deal craftily with His servants.

26 (AA)He sent Moses His servant,
And Aaron whom He had chosen.
27 They (AB)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 (AC)He turned their waters into blood,
And killed their fish.
30 (AD)Their land abounded with frogs,
Even in the chambers of their kings.
31 (AE)He spoke, and there came swarms of flies,
And lice in all their territory.
32 (AF)He gave them hail for rain,
And flaming fire in their land.
33 (AG)He struck their vines also, and their fig trees,
And splintered the trees of their territory.
34 (AH)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 (AI)He also [c]destroyed all the firstborn in their land,
(AJ)The first of all their strength.

37 (AK)He also brought them out with silver and gold,
And there was none feeble among His tribes.
38 (AL)Egypt was glad when they departed,
For the fear of them had fallen upon them.
39 (AM)He spread a cloud for a covering,
And fire to give light in the night.
40 (AN)The people asked, and He brought quail,
And (AO)satisfied them with the bread of heaven.
41 (AP)He opened the rock, and water gushed out;
It ran in the dry places like a river.

42 For He remembered (AQ)His holy promise,
And Abraham His servant.
43 He brought out His people with joy,
His chosen ones with [d]gladness.
44 (AR)He gave them the lands of the [e]Gentiles,
And they inherited the labor of the nations,
45 (AS)That they might observe His statutes
And keep His laws.

[f]Praise the Lord!

Tell of All His Wondrous Works

105 (A)Oh give thanks to the Lord; (B)call upon his name;
    (C)make known his deeds among the peoples!
Sing to him, sing praises to him;
    (D)tell of all his wondrous works!
Glory in his holy name;
    let the hearts of those who seek the Lord rejoice!
Seek the Lord and his (E)strength;
    (F)seek his presence continually!
Remember the (G)wondrous works that he has done,
    his miracles, and (H)the judgments he uttered,
O offspring of (I)Abraham, his servant,
    children of Jacob, his (J)chosen ones!

He is the Lord our God;
    his (K)judgments are in all the earth.
He (L)remembers his covenant forever,
    the word that he commanded, for (M)a thousand generations,
(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!
