Psalm 105

The Lord Remembers His Covenant

Opening Praise

Give thanks to the Lord.
Proclaim[a] his name.
Make his deeds known among the peoples.
Sing to him, make music to him.
Meditate on all his wonders.
Take pride in his holy name.
Let the heart of those who seek the Lord rejoice.
Search for the Lord and his strength.
Seek his face always.
Remember the wonders which he has done,
his signs, and the judgments from his mouth,
you descendants of Abraham his servant,
you sons of Jacob, his chosen ones.
He is the Lord our God.
His judgments are in all the earth.

The Promise of the Covenant

He remembers his covenant forever,
the word he commanded for a thousand generations,
the covenant which he made with Abraham,
and his oath to Isaac.
10 Yes, he confirmed it to Jacob as a statute,
to Israel as an everlasting covenant.
11 He said, “To you I will give the land of Canaan,
the territory you will possess.”

The Lord Is Faithful in Canaan:
His Protection of the Patriarchs

12 While they were few in number,
just a little group and aliens in the land,
13 they moved around from nation to nation,
from one kingdom to another people.
14 He did not allow anyone to oppress them,
and he rebuked kings because of them:
15 “Do not touch my anointed ones,
and do not harm my prophets.”
