✧Give thanks to the LORD! Call on his name! Make his doings known among the peoples. ✧2Sing to him, sing praises to him! Tell of all his marvelous works. ✧3Glory in his holy name. Let the heart of those who seek the LORD rejoice. ✧4Seek the LORD and his strength. Seek his face forever more. ✧5Remember his marvelous works that he has done: his wonders, and the judgments of his mouth, ✧6you offspring of Abraham, his servant, you children of Jacob, his chosen ones. ✧7He is the LORD, our God. His judgments are in all the earth. ✧8He has remembered his covenant forever, the word which he commanded to a thousand generations, ✧9the covenant which he made with Abraham, his oath to Isaac, ✧10and confirmed it to Jacob for a statute; to Israel for an everlasting covenant, ✧11saying, “To you I will give the land of Canaan, the lot of your inheritance,” ✧12when they were but a few men in number, yes, very few, and foreigners in it. ✧13They went about from nation to nation, from one kingdom to another people. ✧14He allowed no one to do them wrong. Yes, he reproved kings for their sakes, ✧15“Don’t touch my anointed ones! Do my prophets no harm!” ✧16He called for a famine on the land. He destroyed the food supplies. ✧17He sent a man before them. Joseph was sold for a slave. ✧18They bruised his feet with shackles. His neck was locked in irons, ✧19until the time that his word happened, and the LORD’s word proved him true. ✧20The king sent and freed him, even the ruler of peoples, and let him go free. ✧21He made him lord of his house, and ruler of all of his possessions, ✧22to discipline his princes at his pleasure, and to teach his elders wisdom. ✧23Israel also came into Egypt. Jacob lived in the land of Ham. ✧24He increased his people greatly, and made them stronger than their adversaries. ✧25He turned their heart to hate his people, to conspire against his servants. ✧26He sent Moses, his servant, and Aaron, whom he had chosen. ✧27They performed miracles among them, and wonders in the land of Ham. ✧28He sent darkness, and made it dark. They didn’t rebel against his words. ✧29He turned their waters into blood, and killed their fish. ✧30Their land swarmed with frogs, even in the rooms of their kings. ✧31He spoke, and swarms of flies came, and lice in all their borders. ✧32He gave them hail for rain, with lightning in their land. ✧33He struck their vines and also their fig trees, and shattered the trees of their country. ✧34He spoke, and the locusts came with the grasshoppers, without number. ✧35They ate up every plant in their land, and ate up the fruit of their ground. ✧36He struck also all the firstborn in their land, the first fruits of all their manhood. ✧37He brought them out with silver and gold. There was not one feeble person among his tribes. ✧38Egypt was glad when they departed, for the fear of them had fallen on them. ✧39He spread a cloud for a covering, fire to give light in the night. ✧40They asked, and he brought quails, and satisfied them with the bread of the sky. ✧41He opened the rock, and waters gushed out. They ran as a river in the dry places. ✧42For he remembered his holy word, and Abraham, his servant. ✧43He brought his people out with joy, his chosen with singing. ✧44He gave them the lands of the nations. They took the labor of the peoples in possession, ✧45that they might keep his statutes, and observe his laws. Praise the LORD!
