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!

Ang Dios at ang Kanyang mga Mamamayan(A)

105 Pasalamatan nʼyo ang Panginoon.
    Sambahin nʼyo siya!
    Ihayag sa mga tao ang kanyang mga ginawa.
Awitan nʼyo siya ng mga papuri;
    ihayag ang lahat ng kamangha-mangha niyang mga gawa.
Purihin nʼyo ang kanyang banal na pangalan.
    Magalak kayo, kayong mga lumalapit sa Panginoon.
Magtiwala kayo sa Panginoon,
    at sa kanyang kalakasan.
    Palagi kayong dumulog sa kanya.
5-6 Kayong mga lahi ni Abraham na lingkod ng Dios,
    at mga lahi rin ni Jacob na kanyang hinirang,
    alalahanin ninyo ang kahanga-hanga niyang mga gawa, mga himala, at ang kanyang paghatol.
Siya ang Panginoon na ating Dios,
    siya ang humahatol sa buong mundo.
Hindi siya makakalimot sa kanyang pangako kailanman – ang kanyang pangako para sa maraming salinlahi
– ang pangako niya kay Abraham, gayon din kay Isaac.
10 Ipinagpatuloy niya ang kasunduang ito kay Jacob,
    at magpapatuloy ito magpakailanman.
11 Sinabi niya sa bawat isa sa kanila,
    “Ibibigay ko sa iyo ang lupain ng Canaan bilang pamana ko sa iyo at sa iyong mga angkan.”

12 Noon ay iilan pa lang ang mga mamamayan ng Dios,
    at mga dayuhan pa lang sila sa lupain ng Canaan.
13 Nagpalipat-lipat sila sa mga bansa at mga kaharian.
14 Ngunit hindi pinahintulutan ng Dios na apihin sila.
    Para maproteksyunan sila, sinaway niya ang mga hari na kumakalaban sa kanila.
15 Sinabi niya,
    “Huwag ninyong galawin ang hinirang kong mga lingkod,
    huwag ninyong saktan ang aking mga propeta.”

16 Nagpadala ang Dios ng taggutom sa lupain ng Canaan.
    Kinuha niyang lahat ang kanilang pagkain.
17 Ngunit pinauna na niya si Jose sa Egipto upang silaʼy tulungan.
    Ipinagbili siya roon upang maging alipin.
18 Kinadenahan ang kanyang mga paa at nilagyan ng bakal ang kanyang leeg,
19 hanggang sa nangyari ang kanyang propesiya.
    Ang mga sinabi ng Panginoon na naganap sa kanya ay nagpatunay na siyaʼy matuwid.
20 Pinalaya siya ng hari ng Egipto na namamahala sa maraming tao,
21 at ginawa siyang tagapamahala ng kanyang palasyo at mga ari-arian.
22 Bilang tagapamahala, may kapangyarihan siyang turuan ang mga pinuno sa nasasakupan ng hari pati ang kanyang mga tagapayo.

23 Pagkatapos, pumunta si Jacob at ang kanyang pamilya sa Egipto, na lupain ng mga lahi ni Ham,
    at doon sila nanirahan bilang dayuhan.
24 Pinarami ng Panginoon ang kanyang mga mamamayan,
    at naging makapangyarihan kaysa sa mga Egipcio na kanilang kaaway.
25 Pinahintulutan ng Panginoon na galitin at lokohin ng mga Egipcio ang mga mamamayan na kanyang lingkod.
26 Sinugo niya si Moises na kanyang lingkod at si Aaron na kanyang hinirang.
27 Ipinakita nila sa lupain ng mga lahi ni Ham ang mga himala na ginawa ng Dios.
28 Pinadilim ng Dios ang lupain ng Egipto,
    ngunit sumuway pa rin sila sa kanyang mga utos.
29 Ginawa niyang dugo ang kanilang mga tubig,
    kaya namatay ang kanilang mga isda.
30 Napuno ng palaka ang kanilang lupain, at pinasok pati ang mga silid ng kanilang mga pinuno.
31 Nag-utos ang Dios, at dumating sa kanilang lupain ang napakaraming niknik at langaw.
32 Sa halip na ulan ang ibinigay sa kanilang lupain, yelo ang bumagsak na may kasamang mga kidlat.
33 Sinira niya ang tanim nilang mga ubas, mga puno ng igos,
    at iba pang mga punongkahoy.
34 Sa kanyang utos, dumating ang mga balang na hindi mabilang.
35 At kinaing lahat ang kanilang mga tanim, pati ang mga bunga nito.
36 Pinatay ng Dios ang lahat nilang panganay na lalaki.

37 Pagkatapos nito, pinalabas niya ang mga taga-Israel sa lupain ng Egipto na wala ni isa mang napahamak,
    at may dala pa silang mga pilak at ginto.
    At sa kanilaʼy wala ni isa mang napahamak.
38 Natuwa ang mga Egipcio nang umalis ang mga taga-Israel, dahil takot sila sa kanila.
39 Sa kanilang paglalakbay, naglagay ang Dios ng ulap na lililim sa kanila sa init ng araw at kung gabiʼy apoy naman upang magbigay sa kanila ng liwanag.
40 Ang mga taoʼy humingi ng makakain,
    at pinadalhan sila ng Dios ng mga pugo,
    at binusog niya sila ng pagkaing mula sa langit.
41 Pinabitak niya ang bato at bumukal ang tubig.
    Umagos ito na parang ilog sa tuyong lupa.
42 Ang lahat ng ito ay ginawa ng Dios dahil hindi niya kinalimutan ang kanyang pangako kay Abraham na kanyang lingkod.
43 Pinalabas niya sa Egipto ang kanyang mga mamamayan na masayang-masaya at sumisigaw sa kagalakan.
44 Ibinigay niya sa kanila ang mga lupain ng ibang bansa;
    ipinamana sa kanila ang pinaghirapan ng iba.
45 Ginawa ito ng Dios
    upang sundin nila ang kanyang mga tuntunin at kautusan.

    Purihin ang Panginoon!

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.
