⁷ He is the Lord our God;
    his judgments are in all the earth.
⁸ He is mindful of his covenant for ever,
    of the word that he commanded, for a thousand generations,
⁹ the covenant which he made with Abraham,
    his sworn promise to Isaac,
¹⁰ which he confirmed to Jacob as a statute,
    to Israel as an everlasting covenant,
¹¹ saying, “To you I will give the land of Canaan
    as your portion for an inheritance.”

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

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

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

²⁶ He sent Moses his servant,
    and Aaron whom he had chosen.
²⁷ They wrought his signs among them,
    and miracles in the land of Ham.
²⁸ He sent darkness, and made the land dark;
    they rebelled^[b] against his words.
²⁹ He turned their waters into blood,
    and caused their fish to die.
³⁰ Their land swarmed with frogs,
    even in the chambers of their kings.
³¹ He spoke, and there came swarms of flies,
    and gnats throughout their country.
³² He gave them hail for rain,
    and lightning that flashed through their land.
³³ He smote their vines and fig trees,
    and shattered the trees of their country.
³⁴ He spoke, and the locusts came,
    and young locusts without number;
³⁵ which devoured all the vegetation in their land,
    and ate up the fruit of their ground.
³⁶ He smote all the first-born in their land,
    the first issue of all their strength.

³⁷ Then he led forth Israel with silver and gold,
    and there was none among his tribes who stumbled.
³⁸ Egypt was glad when they departed,
    for dread of them had fallen upon it.
³⁹ He spread a cloud for a covering,
    and fire to give light by night.
⁴⁰ They asked, and he brought quails,
    and gave them bread from heaven in abundance.
⁴¹ He opened the rock, and water gushed forth;
    it flowed through the desert like a river.
⁴² For he remembered his holy promise,
    and Abraham his servant.

⁴³ So he led forth his people with joy,
    his chosen ones with singing.
⁴⁴ And he gave them the lands of the nations;
    and they took possession of the fruit of the peoples’ toil,
⁴⁵ to the end that they should keep his statutes,
    and observe his laws.
Praise the Lord!

⁷ Ascribe to the Lord, O families of the peoples,
    ascribe to the Lord glory and strength!
⁸ Ascribe to the Lord the glory due his name;
    bring an offering, and come into his courts!
⁹ Worship the Lord in holy array;
    tremble before him, all the earth!

¹⁰ Say among the nations, “The Lord reigns!
    Yea, the world is established, it shall never be moved;
    he will judge the peoples with equity.”
¹¹ Let the heavens be glad, and let the earth rejoice;
    let the sea roar, and all that fills it;
¹²     let the field exult, and everything in it!
Then shall all the trees of the wood sing for joy
¹³     before the Lord, for he comes,
    for he comes to judge the earth.
He will judge the world with righteousness,
    and the peoples with his truth.

⁸ O give thanks to the Lord, call on his name,
    make known his deeds among the peoples!
⁹ Sing to him, sing praises to him,
    tell of all his wonderful works!
¹⁰ Glory in his holy name;
    let the hearts of those who seek the Lord rejoice!
¹¹ Seek the Lord and his strength,
    seek his presence continually!
¹² Remember the wonderful works that he has done,
    the wonders he wrought, the judgments he uttered,
¹³ O offspring of Abraham his servant,
    sons of Jacob, his chosen ones!

¹⁴ He is the Lord our God;
    his judgments are in all the earth.
¹⁵ He is mindful of his covenant for ever,
    of the word that he commanded, for a thousand generations,
¹⁶ the covenant which he made with Abraham,
    his sworn promise to Isaac,
¹⁷ which he confirmed as a statute to Jacob,
    as an everlasting covenant to Israel,
¹⁸ saying, “To you I will give the land of Canaan,
    as your portion for an inheritance.”

¹⁹ When they were few in number,
    and of little account, and sojourners in it,
²⁰ wandering from nation to nation,
    from one kingdom to another people,
²¹ he allowed no one to oppress them;
    he rebuked kings on their account,
²² saying, “Touch not my anointed ones,
    do my prophets no harm!”

²³ Sing to the Lord, all the earth!
    Tell of his salvation from day to day.
²⁴ Declare his glory among the nations,
    his marvelous works among all the peoples!
²⁵ For great is the Lord, and greatly to be praised,
    and he is to be held in awe above all gods.
²⁶ For all the gods of the peoples are idols;
    but the Lord made the heavens.
²⁷ Honor and majesty are before him;
    strength and joy are in his place.

²⁸ Ascribe to the Lord, O families of the peoples,
    ascribe to the Lord glory and strength!
²⁹ Ascribe to the Lord the glory due his name;
    bring an offering, and come before him!
Worship the Lord in holy array;
³⁰     tremble before him, all the earth;
    yea, the world stands firm, never to be moved.
³¹ Let the heavens be glad, and let the earth rejoice,
    and let them say among the nations, “The Lord reigns!”
³² Let the sea roar, and all that fills it,
    let the field exult, and everything in it!
³³ Then shall the trees of the wood sing for joy
    before the Lord, for he comes to judge the earth.
³⁴ O give thanks to the Lord, for he is good;
    for his steadfast love endures for ever!

³⁵ Say also:
“Deliver us, O God of our salvation,
    and gather and save us from among the nations,
that we may give thanks to thy holy name,
    and glory in thy praise.
³⁶ Blessed be the Lord, the God of Israel,
    from everlasting to everlasting!”
