1O give thanks to the Lord ; call on his name;[#1 Chr 16.8; Ps 145.12]
make known his deeds among the peoples.
2Sing to him, sing praises to him;[#Ps 77.12]
tell of all his wonderful works.
3Glory in his holy name;[#Ps 33.21]
let the hearts of those who seek the Lord rejoice.
4Seek the Lord and his strength;[#Ps 27.8]
seek his presence continually.
5Remember the wonderful works he has done,[#Ps 77.11]
his miracles and the judgments he has uttered,
6O offspring of his servant Abraham,[#105.6 Or Israel]
children of Jacob, his chosen ones.
7He is the Lord our God;[#Isa 26.9]
his judgments are in all the earth.
8He is mindful of his covenant forever,
of the word that he commanded for a thousand generations,
9the covenant that he made with Abraham,[#Gen 17.2]
his sworn promise to Isaac,
10which he confirmed to Jacob as a statute,[#Gen 28.13–15]
to Israel as an everlasting covenant,
11saying, “To you I will give the land of Canaan[#Gen 13.15; 15.18]
as your portion for an inheritance.”
12When they were few in number,[#Gen 34.30; Heb 11.9]
of little account and strangers in it,
13wandering from nation to nation,
from one kingdom to another people,
14he allowed no one to oppress them;[#Gen 12.17; 35.5]
he rebuked kings on their account,
15saying, “Do not touch my anointed ones;
do my prophets no harm.”
16When he summoned famine against the land[#Lev 26.26; Isa 3.1; Ezek 4.16]
and cut off every supply of bread,
17he had sent a man ahead of them,[#Gen 37.28, 36; 45.5]
Joseph, who had been sold as a slave.
18His feet were hurt with fetters;[#Gen 39.20]
his neck was put in a collar of iron;
19until what he had said came to pass,[#Gen 40.20, 21]
the word of the Lord kept testing him.
20The king sent and released him;[#Gen 41.14]
the ruler of the peoples set him free.
21He made him lord of his house[#Gen 41.40]
and ruler of all his possessions,
22to instruct his officials at his pleasure[#105.22 Gk Syr Jerome: Heb to bind]
and to teach his elders wisdom.
23Then Israel came to Egypt;[#Gen 46.6; Acts 13.17]
Jacob lived as an alien in the land of Ham.
24And the Lord made his people very fruitful[#Ex 1.7]
and made them stronger than their foes,
25whose hearts he then turned to hate his people,[#Ex 1.8, 10]
to deal craftily with his servants.
26He sent his servant Moses[#Ex 3.10; Num 16.5]
and Aaron, whom he had chosen.
27They performed his signs among them[#Ex 7—12; Ps 78.43]
and miracles in the land of Ham.
28He sent darkness and made the land dark;[#Ex 10.22; Ps 99.7]
they rebelled against his words.
29He turned their waters into blood[#Ex 7.20]
and caused their fish to die.
30Their land swarmed with frogs,[#Ex 8.6]
even in the chambers of their kings.
31He spoke, and there came swarms of flies[#Ex 8.16, 21]
and gnats throughout their country.
32He gave them hail for rain[#Ex 9.23]
and lightning that flashed through their land.
33He struck their vines and fig trees
and shattered the trees of their country.
34He spoke, and the locusts came,[#Ex 10.4; Ps 78.46]
and young locusts without number;
35they devoured all the vegetation in their land
and ate up the fruit of their ground.
36He struck down all the firstborn in their land,[#Ex 12.29; Ps 78.51]
the first issue of all their strength.
37Then he brought Israel out with silver and gold,[#Ex 12.35; #105.37 Heb them]
and there was no one among their tribes who stumbled.
38Egypt was glad when they departed,[#Ex 12.33]
for dread of them had fallen upon it.
39He spread a cloud for a covering[#Ex 13.21]
and fire to give light by night.
40They asked, and he brought quails[#Ex 16.12ff; Ps 78.24ff]
and gave them food from heaven in abundance.
41He opened the rock, and water gushed out;[#Ex 17.6; 1 Cor 10.4]
it flowed through the desert like a river.
42For he remembered his holy promise[#v 8]
and Abraham, his servant.
43So he brought his people out with joy,
his chosen ones with singing.
44He gave them the lands of the nations,[#Josh 13.7]
and they took possession of the wealth of the peoples,
45that they might keep his statutes[#Deut 6.21–25]
and observe his laws.
Praise the Lord !
