稱頌守約和施行奇事的 神(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。

你們要向他歌唱,歌頌他,

講論他一切奇妙的作為。

你們要以他的聖名誇耀;

願尋求耶和華的人都心裡歡喜。

你們要追求耶和華與他的能力,

常常尋求他的面。

記念他所作的奇事、

他的神蹟,

和他口裡的判詞。

他僕人亞伯拉罕的後裔啊!

他所揀選的人,雅各的子孫哪!

他是耶和華我們的 神,

他的判詞充滿全地。

他永遠記念他的約,

他記念他所吩咐的話,直到千代,

就是與亞伯拉罕所立的約,

向以撒所起的誓。

10 他把這約向雅各定為律例,

向以色列堅立為永遠的約,

11 說:“我必把迦南地賜給你們,

作你們產業的分。”

12 那時,他們人數不多,

實在很少,而且是在那地寄居的。

13 他們從這邦飄流到那邦,

從這國飄流到另一國。

14 他不容任何人欺壓他們,

為了他們的緣故,他曾指責君王,說:

15 “不可傷害我的受膏者,

也不可惡待我的先知。”

16 他命令饑荒臨到那地,

斷絕了一切糧食的供應。

17 在他們之前,他差遣一個人去,

就是被賣為奴的約瑟。

18 人用腳鐐弄傷他的腳,

他的頸項被鐵鍊鎖著,

19 直到他的話應驗,

耶和華的話為他證實的時候。

20 王就派人去釋放他,

統治眾民的把他釋放了。

21 王立他執掌朝政,

管理王一切所有的,

22 使他可以隨意捆綁王的群臣,

把智慧教導王的長老。

23 後來以色列到了埃及,

雅各在含地寄居。

24 耶和華使他的子民生育眾多,

使他們比他們的敵人更強盛。

25 他改變敵人的心去憎恨他的子民,

用詭詐待他的眾僕人。

26 他差派了他的僕人摩西,

和他揀選的亞倫。

27 他們在敵人中間施行他的神蹟,

在含地顯明他的奇事。

28 他命黑暗降下,使那地黑暗;

他的話是不能違背的。

29 他使埃及的水都變成血,

使他們的魚都死掉。

30 在他們的地上,以及君王的內室,

青蛙多多滋生。

31 他一發命令,蒼蠅就成群而來,

並且虱子進入他們的四境。

32 他給他們降下冰雹為雨,

又在他們的地上降下火燄。

33 他擊打他們的葡萄樹和無花果樹,

又毀壞他們境內的樹木。

34 他一發命令,蝗蟲就來,

蚱蜢也來,多得無法數算,

35 吃盡了他們地上的一切植物,

吃光了他們土地的出產。

36 他擊殺了他們境內所有的長子,

就是他們強壯的時候所生的頭生子。

37 他領自己的子民帶著金銀出來;

他們眾支派中沒有一個畏縮的。

38 他們出來的時候,埃及人很歡喜,

因為埃及人都懼怕他們。

39 他展開雲彩作遮蓋,

夜間有火光照。

40 他們一求,他就使鵪鶉飛來,

並且用天上的糧食使他們飽足。

41 他裂開磐石,水就湧流出來;

在乾旱之處水流成河。

42 因為他記念他向自己的僕人亞伯拉罕應許的聖言。

43 他帶領自己的子民歡歡樂樂出來,

帶領自己的選民歡呼著出來。

44 他把多國的地土賜給他們,

他們就承受眾民勞碌的成果,

45 為要使他們謹守他的律例,

遵守他的律法。

你們要讚美耶和華。

称颂守约和施行奇事的 神(A)

105 你们要称谢耶和华,求告他的名;

在万民中传扬他的作为。

你们要向他歌唱,歌颂他,

讲论他一切奇妙的作为。

你们要以他的圣名夸耀;

愿寻求耶和华的人都心里欢喜。

你们要追求耶和华与他的能力,

常常寻求他的面。

记念他所作的奇事、

他的神迹,

和他口里的判词。

他仆人亚伯拉罕的后裔啊!

他所拣选的人,雅各的子孙哪!

他是耶和华我们的 神,

他的判词充满全地。

他永远记念他的约,

他记念他所吩咐的话,直到千代,

就是与亚伯拉罕所立的约,

向以撒所起的誓。

10 他把这约向雅各定为律例,

向以色列坚立为永远的约,

11 说:“我必把迦南地赐给你们,

作你们产业的分。”

12 那时,他们人数不多,

实在很少,而且是在那地寄居的。

13 他们从这邦飘流到那邦,

从这国飘流到另一国。

14 他不容任何人欺压他们,

为了他们的缘故,他曾指责君王,说:

15 “不可伤害我的受膏者,

也不可恶待我的先知。”

16 他命令饥荒临到那地,

断绝了一切粮食的供应。

17 在他们之前,他差遣一个人去,

就是被卖为奴的约瑟。

18 人用脚镣弄伤他的脚,

他的颈项被铁链锁着,

19 直到他的话应验,

耶和华的话为他证实的时候。

20 王就派人去释放他,

统治众民的把他释放了。

21 王立他执掌朝政,

管理王一切所有的,

22 使他可以随意捆绑王的群臣,

把智慧教导王的长老。

23 后来以色列到了埃及,

雅各在含地寄居。

24 耶和华使他的子民生育众多,

使他们比他们的敌人更强盛。

25 他改变敌人的心去憎恨他的子民,

用诡诈待他的众仆人。

26 他差派了他的仆人摩西,

和他拣选的亚伦。

27 他们在敌人中间施行他的神迹,

在含地显明他的奇事。

28 他命黑暗降下,使那地黑暗;

他的话是不能违背的。

29 他使埃及的水都变成血,

使他们的鱼都死掉。

30 在他们的地上,以及君王的内室,

青蛙多多滋生。

31 他一发命令,苍蝇就成群而来,

并且虱子进入他们的四境。

32 他给他们降下冰雹为雨,

又在他们的地上降下火焰。

33 他击打他们的葡萄树和无花果树,

又毁坏他们境内的树木。

34 他一发命令,蝗虫就来,

蚱蜢也来,多得无法数算,

35 吃尽了他们地上的一切植物,

吃光了他们土地的出产。

36 他击杀了他们境内所有的长子,

就是他们强壮的时候所生的头生子。

37 他领自己的子民带着金银出来;

他们众支派中没有一个畏缩的。

38 他们出来的时候,埃及人很欢喜,

因为埃及人都惧怕他们。

39 他展开云彩作遮盖,

夜间有火光照。

40 他们一求,他就使鹌鹑飞来,

并且用天上的粮食使他们饱足。

41 他裂开盘石,水就涌流出来;

在干旱之处水流成河。

42 因为他记念他向自己的仆人亚伯拉罕应许的圣言。

43 他带领自己的子民欢欢乐乐出来,

带领自己的选民欢呼着出来。

44 他把多国的地土赐给他们,

他们就承受众民劳碌的成果,

45 为要使他们谨守他的律例,

遵守他的律法。

你们要赞美耶和华。

105 Give thanks to the Lord.
Call on him.
Make known among the nations what he has done.
Sing to him.
Make music to praise him.
Meditate on all the miracles he has performed.
Brag about his holy name.
Let the hearts of those who seek the Lord rejoice.
Search for the Lord and his strength.
Always seek his presence.
Remember the miracles he performed,
the amazing things he did, and the judgments he pronounced,
you descendants of his servant Abraham,
you descendants of Jacob, his chosen ones.

He is the Lord our God.
His judgments are pronounced throughout the earth.
He always remembers his promise,[a]
the word that he commanded for a thousand generations,
the promise that he made to Abraham,
and his sworn oath to Isaac.
10 He confirmed it as a law for Jacob,
as an everlasting promise to Israel,
11 by saying, “I will give you the land of Canaan.
It is your share of the inheritance.”

12 While the people of Israel were few in number,
a small group of foreigners living in that land,
13 they wandered from nation to nation,
from one kingdom to another.
14 He didn’t permit anyone to oppress them.
He warned kings about them:
15 “Do not touch my anointed ones
or harm my prophets.”

16 He brought famine to the land.
He took away their food supply.
17 He sent a man ahead of them.
He sent Joseph, who was sold as a slave.
18 They hurt his feet with shackles,
and cut into his neck with an iron collar.
19 The Lord’s promise tested him through fiery trials
until his prediction came true.
20 The king sent someone to release him.
The ruler of nations set him free.
21 He made Joseph the master of his palace
and the ruler of all his possessions.
22 Joseph trained the king’s officers the way he wanted
and taught his respected leaders wisdom.

23 Then Israel came to Egypt.
Jacob lived as a foreigner in the land of Ham.
24 The Lord made his people grow rapidly in number
and stronger than their enemies.
25 He changed their minds so that they hated his people,
and they dealt treacherously with his servants.
26 He sent his servant Moses, and he sent Aaron, whom he had chosen.
27 They displayed his miraculous signs among them
and did amazing things in the land of Ham.
28 He sent darkness and made ⌞their land⌟ dark.
They did not rebel against his orders.
29 He turned their water into blood
and caused their fish to die.
30 He made their land swarm with frogs,
even in the kings’ bedrooms.
31 He spoke, and swarms of flies and gnats
infested their whole territory.
32 He gave them hail and lightning
instead of rain throughout their land.
33 He struck their grapevines and fig trees
and smashed the trees in their territory.
34 He spoke, and countless locusts and grasshoppers came.
35 They devoured all the plants in the land.
They devoured the crops in the fields.
36 He killed all the firstborn sons,
the first ones born in the land when their fathers were young.
37 He brought Israel out with silver and gold,
and no one among his tribes stumbled.
38 The Egyptians were terrified of Israel,
so they were glad when Israel left.
39 He spread out a cloud as a protective covering
and a fire to light up the night.
40 The Israelites asked, and he brought them quail
and filled them with bread from heaven.
41 He opened a rock, and water gushed
and flowed like a river through the dry places.

42 He remembered his holy promise to his servant Abraham.
43 He brought his people out with joy,
his chosen ones with a song of joy.
44 He gave them the lands of ⌞other⌟ nations,
and they inherited what others had worked for
45 so that they would obey his laws
and follow his teachings.

Hallelujah!

  1. 105:8 Or “covenant.”

Psalm 105(A)

Give praise to the Lord,(B) proclaim his name;(C)
    make known among the nations what he has done.
Sing to him,(D) sing praise to him;(E)
    tell of all his wonderful acts.(F)
Glory in his holy name;(G)
    let the hearts of those who seek the Lord rejoice.
Look to the Lord and his strength;
    seek his face(H) always.

Remember the wonders(I) he has done,
    his miracles, and the judgments he pronounced,(J)
you his servants, the descendants of Abraham,(K)
    his chosen(L) ones, the children of Jacob.
He is the Lord our God;
    his judgments are in all the earth.

He remembers his covenant(M) forever,
    the promise he made, for a thousand generations,
the covenant he made with Abraham,(N)
    the oath he swore to Isaac.
10 He confirmed it(O) to Jacob as a decree,
    to Israel as an everlasting covenant:(P)
11 “To you I will give the land of Canaan(Q)
    as the portion you will inherit.”(R)

12 When they were but few in number,(S)
    few indeed, and strangers in it,(T)
13 they wandered from nation to nation,(U)
    from one kingdom to another.
14 He allowed no one to oppress(V) them;
    for their sake he rebuked kings:(W)
15 “Do not touch(X) my anointed ones;
    do my prophets(Y) no harm.”

16 He called down famine(Z) on the land
    and destroyed all their supplies of food;
17 and he sent a man before them—
    Joseph, sold as a slave.(AA)
18 They bruised his feet with shackles,(AB)
    his neck was put in irons,
19 till what he foretold(AC) came to pass,
    till the word(AD) of the Lord proved him true.
20 The king sent and released him,
    the ruler of peoples set him free.(AE)
21 He made him master of his household,
    ruler over all he possessed,
22 to instruct his princes(AF) as he pleased
    and teach his elders wisdom.(AG)

23 Then Israel entered Egypt;(AH)
    Jacob resided(AI) as a foreigner in the land of Ham.(AJ)
24 The Lord made his people very fruitful;
    he made them too numerous(AK) for their foes,
25 whose hearts he turned(AL) to hate his people,
    to conspire(AM) against his servants.
26 He sent Moses(AN) his servant,
    and Aaron,(AO) whom he had chosen.(AP)
27 They performed(AQ) his signs(AR) among them,
    his wonders(AS) in the land of Ham.
28 He sent darkness(AT) and made the land dark—
    for had they not rebelled against(AU) his words?
29 He turned their waters into blood,(AV)
    causing their fish to die.(AW)
30 Their land teemed with frogs,(AX)
    which went up into the bedrooms of their rulers.
31 He spoke,(AY) and there came swarms of flies,(AZ)
    and gnats(BA) throughout their country.
32 He turned their rain into hail,(BB)
    with lightning throughout their land;
33 he struck down their vines(BC) and fig trees(BD)
    and shattered the trees of their country.
34 He spoke,(BE) and the locusts came,(BF)
    grasshoppers(BG) without number;(BH)
35 they ate up every green thing in their land,
    ate up the produce of their soil.
36 Then he struck down all the firstborn(BI) in their land,
    the firstfruits of all their manhood.
37 He brought out Israel, laden with silver and gold,(BJ)
    and from among their tribes no one faltered.
38 Egypt was glad when they left,
    because dread of Israel(BK) had fallen on them.

39 He spread out a cloud(BL) as a covering,
    and a fire to give light at night.(BM)
40 They asked,(BN) and he brought them quail;(BO)
    he fed them well with the bread of heaven.(BP)
41 He opened the rock,(BQ) and water gushed out;
    it flowed like a river in the desert.

42 For he remembered his holy promise(BR)
    given to his servant Abraham.
43 He brought out his people with rejoicing,(BS)
    his chosen ones with shouts of joy;
44 he gave them the lands of the nations,(BT)
    and they fell heir to what others had toiled(BU) for—
45 that they might keep his precepts
    and observe his laws.(BV)

Praise the Lord.[a](BW)

  1. Psalm 105:45 Hebrew Hallelu Yah

105 O give thanks unto the Lord; call upon his name: make known his deeds among the people.

Sing unto him, sing psalms unto him: talk ye of all his wondrous works.

Glory ye in his holy name: let the heart of them rejoice that seek the Lord.

Seek the Lord, 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.

He is the Lord 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.

Which covenant he made with Abraham, and his oath unto Isaac;

10 And confirmed the same unto Jacob for a law, and to Israel for an everlasting covenant:

11 Saying, Unto thee will I give the land of Canaan, the lot of your inheritance:

12 When they were but a few men in number; yea, very few, and strangers in it.

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

14 He suffered no man to do them wrong: yea, he reproved kings for their sakes;

15 Saying, Touch not mine anointed, and do my prophets no harm.

16 Moreover he called for a famine upon the land: he brake the whole staff of bread.

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

18 Whose feet they hurt with fetters: he was laid in iron:

19 Until the time that his word came: the word of the Lord tried him.

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

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

22 To bind his princes at his pleasure; and teach his senators wisdom.

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

24 And he increased his people greatly; and made them stronger than their enemies.

25 He turned their heart to hate his people, to deal subtilly with his servants.

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

27 They shewed his signs among them, and wonders in the land of Ham.

28 He sent darkness, and made it dark; and they rebelled not against his word.

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

30 Their land brought forth frogs in abundance, in the chambers of their kings.

31 He spake, and there came divers sorts of flies, and lice in all their coasts.

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

33 He smote their vines also and their fig trees; and brake the trees of their coasts.

34 He spake, and the locusts came, and caterpillers, and that without number,

35 And did eat up all the herbs in their land, and devoured the fruit of their ground.

36 He smote also all the firstborn in their land, the chief of all their strength.

37 He brought them forth also with silver and gold: and there was not one feeble person among their tribes.

38 Egypt was glad when they departed: for the fear of them fell upon them.

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

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

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

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

43 And he brought forth his people with joy, and his chosen with gladness:

44 And gave them the lands of the heathen: and they inherited the labour of the people;

45 That they might observe his statutes, and keep his laws. Praise ye the Lord.
