Psaltaren 105
nuBibeln (Swedish Contemporary Bible)
Herren har varit trofast
(1 Krön 16:8-22)
105 Prisa Herren, åkalla honom.
Gör hans verk kända för alla folk.
2 Sjung och spela till hans ära,
berätta om alla hans under!
3 Lovprisa hans heliga namn,
låt dem som söker Herren få en innerlig glädje!
4 Vänd er till Herren och hans kraft,
sök honom ständigt.
5 Tänk på de mäktiga gärningar han har gjort,
hans under och den dom som han uttalat,
6 ni som är ättlingar till hans tjänare Abraham,
till Jakob, hans utvalde.
7 Han är Herren, vår Gud.
Över hela jorden sträcker sig hans domar.
8 Han minns för evigt sitt förbund,
sina befallningar för tusen generationer,
9 det förbund som han slöt med Abraham,
och sin ed till Isak.
10 Han bekräftade det till Jakob som en stadga,
till Israel som ett evigt förbund.
11 Han sa: ”Jag ska ge dig Kanaans land
till arv och egendom.”
12 Fastän de var få till antalet,
en liten skara främlingar,
13 och vandrade från folk till folk,
från rike till rike,
14 lät han ingen förtrycka dem,
och han straffade kungar för deras skull.
15 ”Rör inte mina smorda,
skada inte mina profeter!”
16 Han sände hungersnöd över landet
och förstörde deras matförråd.
17 Men han hade före dem sänt en man, Josef,
som såldes som slav.
18 Bojor sattes på hans fötter
och en järnring runt hans hals,
19 tills den dag hans ord gick i uppfyllelse,
och Herrens ord gav honom rätt.
20 Då lät kungen släppa honom fri,
folkens kung befriade honom.
21 Kungen gjorde honom till herre över sitt hus,
till härskare över hela sin egendom,
22 för att leda hans furstar som han ville
och lära hans äldste vishet.
23 Israel kom till Egypten,
Jakob blev gäst i Hams land.
24 Han gjorde sitt folk mycket fruktsamt,
han gjorde dem mer talrika än deras fiender.
25 Han vände egypterna till att hata hans folk,
till konspiration mot hans tjänare.
26 Han sände sin tjänare Mose,
och Aron, som han hade utvalt.
27 De utförde hans tecken bland dem,
under i Hams land.
28 Han sände mörker, så att allting blev mörkt.
De hade inte[a] gjort uppror mot hans ord.
29 Han förvandlade deras vatten till blod
och lät deras fiskar dö.
30 Deras land vimlade av grodor,
ända in i deras furstars sängkammare.
31 Han befallde, och svärmar av flugor kom,
mygg över hela deras land.
32 I stället för regn gav han dem hagel
och eldslågor i landet.
33 Han slog ner deras vinrankor och fikonträd,
och alla träd vräktes omkull i deras land.
34 På hans befallning kom gräshoppssvärmar
och ett oräkneligt antal gräshoppsyngel.
35 De åt upp allt grönt i deras land,
och de åt upp skörden på deras mark.
36 Slutligen dödade han allt förstfött i deras land,
alla deras manliga nyfödda.
37 Sedan förde han dem ut ur landet med silver och guld,
och det fanns ingen i dess stammar som stapplade.
38 Egypterna gladde sig när de gav sig iväg,
för de hade drabbats av fasor för Israels skull.
39 Han bredde ut ett moln som skydd
och en eld som lyste om natten.
40 De[b] bad, och han sände vaktlar,
han mättade dem med bröd från himlen.
41 Han öppnade en klippa, och vattnet forsade fram.
Det flöt som en flod genom det torra landet.
42 För han tänkte på sitt heliga löfte
till sin tjänare Abraham.
43 Han ledde ut sitt folk under jubel,
sina utvalda under glädjerop.
44 Han gav dem land som tillhört andra folk.
De fick överta frukten av deras möda,
45 för att de skulle hålla hans bud och lyda hans lagar.
Halleluja!
Psalm 105
Holman Christian Standard Bible
Psalm 105
God’s Faithfulness to His People
1 Give thanks to Yahweh, call on His name;
proclaim His deeds among the peoples.(A)
2 Sing to Him, sing praise to Him;
tell about all His wonderful works!(B)
3 Honor His holy name;
let the hearts of those who seek Yahweh rejoice.(C)
4 Search for the Lord and for His strength;
seek His face always.(D)
5 Remember the wonderful works He has done,
His wonders, and the judgments He has pronounced,[a](E)
6 you offspring of Abraham His servant,
Jacob’s descendants—His chosen ones.(F)
7 He is the Lord our God;
His judgments govern the whole earth.(G)
8 He remembers His covenant forever,
the promise He ordained
for a thousand generations(H)—
9 the covenant He made with Abraham,
swore[b] to Isaac,(I)
10 and confirmed to Jacob as a decree
and to Israel as an everlasting covenant:(J)
11 “I will give the land of Canaan to you
as your inherited portion.”(K)
12 When they were few in number,
very few indeed,
and temporary residents in Canaan,(L)
13 wandering from nation to nation
and from one kingdom to another,(M)
14 He allowed no one to oppress them;
He rebuked kings on their behalf:(N)
15 “Do not touch My anointed ones,(O)
or harm My prophets.”(P)
16 He called down famine against the land
and destroyed the entire food supply.(Q)
17 He had sent a man ahead of them—
Joseph, who was sold as a slave.(R)
18 They hurt his feet with shackles;
his neck was put in an iron collar.(S)
19 Until the time his prediction came true,
the word of the Lord tested him.(T)
20 The king sent for him and released him;
the ruler of peoples set him free.(U)
21 He made him master of his household,
ruler over all his possessions(V)—
22 binding[c] his officials at will
and instructing his elders.(W)
23 Then Israel went to Egypt;
Jacob lived as a foreigner in the land of Ham.[d](X)
24 The Lord[e] made His people very fruitful;
He made them more numerous than their foes,(Y)
25 whose hearts He turned to hate His people
and to deal deceptively with His servants.(Z)
26 He sent Moses His servant,
and Aaron, whom He had chosen.(AA)
27 They performed His miraculous signs among them,
and wonders in the land of Ham.[f](AB)
28 He sent darkness, and it became dark—
for did they not defy[g] His commands?(AC)
29 He turned their water into blood
and caused their fish to die.(AD)
30 Their land was overrun with frogs,
even in their royal chambers.(AE)
31 He spoke, and insects came(AF)—
gnats throughout their country.(AG)
32 He gave them hail for rain,
and lightning throughout their land.(AH)
33 He struck their vines and fig trees
and shattered the trees of their territory.(AI)
34 He spoke, and locusts came—
young locusts without number.
35 They devoured all the vegetation in their land
and consumed the produce of their land.(AJ)
36 He struck all the firstborn in their land,
all their first progeny.(AK)
37 Then He brought Israel out with silver and gold,
and no one among His tribes stumbled.(AL)
38 Egypt was glad when they left,
for the dread of Israel[h] had fallen on them.(AM)
39 He spread a cloud as a covering
and gave a fire to light up the night.(AN)
40 They asked, and He brought quail
and satisfied them with bread from heaven.(AO)
41 He opened a rock, and water gushed out;
it flowed like a stream in the desert.(AP)
42 For He remembered His holy promise
to Abraham His servant.(AQ)
43 He brought His people out with rejoicing,
His chosen ones with shouts of joy.(AR)
44 He gave them the lands of the nations,
and they inherited
what other peoples had worked for.(AS)
45 All this happened
so that they might keep His statutes
and obey His instructions.(AT)
Hallelujah!

King James Version
105 O give thanks unto the Lord; call upon his name: make known his deeds among the people.
2 Sing unto him, sing psalms unto him: talk ye of all his wondrous works.
3 Glory ye in his holy name: let the heart of them rejoice that seek the Lord.
4 Seek the Lord, and his strength: seek his face evermore.
5 Remember his marvellous works that he hath done; his wonders, and the judgments of his mouth;
6 O ye seed of Abraham his servant, ye children of Jacob his chosen.
7 He is the Lord our God: his judgments are in all the earth.
8 He hath remembered his covenant for ever, the word which he commanded to a thousand generations.
9 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.
