Psalm 105:1-15

105 Give ye thanks to Jehovah -- call ye in His name, Make known among the peoples His acts.

Sing ye to Him -- sing praise to Him, Meditate ye on all His wonders.

Boast yourselves in His Holy Name, The heart of those seeking Jehovah rejoiceth.

Seek ye Jehovah and His strength, Seek ye His face continually.

Remember His wonders that He did, His signs and the judgments of His mouth.

O seed of Abraham, His servant, O sons of Jacob, His chosen ones.

He [is] Jehovah our God, In all the earth [are] His judgments.

He hath remembered to the age His covenant, The word He commanded to a thousand generations,

That He hath made with Abraham, And His oath to Isaac,

10 And doth establish it to Jacob for a statute, To Israel -- a covenant age-during,

11 Saying, `To thee I give the land of Canaan, The portion of your inheritance,'

12 In their being few in number, But a few, and sojourners in it.

13 And they go up and down, from nation unto nation, From a kingdom unto another people.

14 He hath not suffered any to oppress them And He reproveth for their sakes kings.

15 `Strike not against Mine anointed, And to My prophets do not evil.'

Psalm 105:16-41

16 And He calleth a famine on the land, The whole staff of bread He hath broken.

17 He hath sent before them a man, For a servant hath Joseph been sold.

18 They have afflicted with fetters his feet, Iron hath entered his soul,

19 Till the time of the coming of His word The saying of Jehovah hath tried him.

20 The king hath sent, and looseth him, The ruler of the peoples, and draweth him out.

21 He hath made him lord of his house, And ruler over all his possessions.

22 To bind his chiefs at his pleasure, And his elders he maketh wise.

23 And Israel cometh in to Egypt, And Jacob hath sojourned in the land of Ham.

24 And He maketh His people very fruitful, And maketh it mightier than its adversaries.

25 He turned their heart to hate His people, To conspire against His servants.

26 He hath sent Moses His servant, Aaron whom He had fixed on.

27 They have set among them the matters of His signs, And wonders in the land of Ham.

28 He hath sent darkness, and it is dark, And they have not provoked His word.

29 He hath turned their waters to blood, And putteth to death their fish.

30 Teemed hath their land [with] frogs, In the inner chambers of their kings.

31 He hath said, and the beetle cometh, Lice into all their border.

32 He hath made their showers hail, A flaming fire [is] in their land.

33 And He smiteth their vine and their fig, And shivereth the trees of their border.

34 He hath said, and the locust cometh, And the cankerworm -- innumerable,

35 And it consumeth every herb in their land, And it consumeth the fruit of their ground.

36 And He smiteth every first-born in their land, The first-fruit of all their strength,

37 And bringeth them out with silver and gold, And there is not in its tribes a feeble one.

38 Rejoiced hath Egypt in their going forth, For their fear had fallen upon them.

39 He hath spread a cloud for a covering, And fire to enlighten the night.

40 They have asked, and He bringeth quails, And [with] bread of heaven satisfieth them.

41 He hath opened a rock, and waters issue, They have gone on in dry places -- a river.

Psalm 105:42

42 For He hath remembered His holy word, With Abraham His servant,

Numbers 14:10-24

10 And all the company say to stone them with stones, and the honour of Jehovah hath appeared in the tent of meeting unto all the sons of Israel.

11 And Jehovah saith unto Moses, `Until when doth this people despise Me? and until when do they not believe in Me, for all the signs which I have done in its midst?

12 I smite it with pestilence, and dispossess it, and make thee become a nation greater and mightier than it.'

13 And Moses saith unto Jehovah, `Then have the Egyptians heard! for Thou hast brought up with Thy power this people out of their midst,

14 and they have said [it] unto the inhabitant of this land, they have heard that Thou, Jehovah, [art] in the midst of this people, that eye to eye Thou art seen -- O Jehovah, and Thy cloud is standing over them, -- and in a pillar of cloud Thou art going before them by day, and in a pillar of fire by night.

15 `And Thou hast put to death this people as one man, and the nations who have heard Thy fame have spoken, saying,

16 From Jehovah's want of ability to bring in this people unto the land which He hath sworn to them -- He doth slaughter them in the wilderness.

17 `And now, let, I pray Thee, the power of my Lord be great, as Thou hast spoken, saying:

18 Jehovah [is] slow to anger, and of great kindness; bearing away iniquity and transgression, and not entirely acquitting, charging iniquity of fathers on sons, on a third [generation], and on a fourth; --

19 forgive, I pray Thee, the iniquity of this people, according to the greatness of Thy kindness, and as Thou hast borne with this people from Egypt, even until now.'

20 And Jehovah saith, `I have forgiven, according to thy word;

21 and yet, I live -- and it is filled -- the whole earth -- [with] the honour of Jehovah;

22 for all the men who are seeing My honour, and My signs, which I have done in Egypt, and in the wilderness, and try Me these ten times, and have not hearkened to My voice --

23 they see not the land which I have sworn to their fathers, yea, none of those despising Me see it;

24 and My servant Caleb, because there hath been another spirit with him, and he is fully after Me -- I have brought him in unto the land whither he hath entered, and his seed doth possess it.

1 Corinthians 10:1-13

10 And I do not wish you to be ignorant, brethren, that all our fathers were under the cloud, and all passed through the sea,

and all to Moses were baptized in the cloud, and in the sea;

and all the same spiritual food did eat,

and all the same spiritual drink did drink, for they were drinking of a spiritual rock following them, and the rock was the Christ;

but in the most of them God was not well pleased, for they were strewn in the wilderness,

and those things became types of us, for our not passionately desiring evil things, as also these did desire.

Neither become ye idolaters, as certain of them, as it hath been written, `The people sat down to eat and to drink, and stood up to play;'

neither may we commit whoredom, as certain of them did commit whoredom, and there fell in one day twenty-three thousand;

neither may we tempt the Christ, as also certain of them did tempt, and by the serpents did perish;

10 neither murmur ye, as also some of them did murmur, and did perish by the destroyer.

11 And all these things as types did happen to those persons, and they were written for our admonition, to whom the end of the ages did come,

12 so that he who is thinking to stand -- let him observe, lest he fall.

13 No temptation hath taken you -- except human; and God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above what ye are able, but He will make, with the temptation, also the outlet, for your being able to bear [it].
