Psalm 105:1-45 CSB

[1] Give thanks to the LORD, call on his name; proclaim his deeds among the peoples. [2] Sing to him, sing praise to him; tell about all his wondrous works! [3] Boast in his holy name; let the hearts of those who seek the LORD rejoice. [4] Seek the LORD and his strength; seek his face always. [5] Remember the wondrous works he has done, his wonders, and the judgments he has pronounced, [6] you offspring of Abraham his servant, Jacob's descendants-his chosen ones. [7] He is the LORD our God; his judgments govern the whole earth. [8] He remembers his covenant forever, the promise he ordained for a thousand generations- [9] the covenant he made with Abraham, swore to Isaac, [10] and confirmed to Jacob as a decree and to Israel as a permanent covenant: [11] "I will give the land of Canaan to you as your inherited portion." [12] When they were few in number, very few indeed, and resident aliens in Canaan, [13] wandering from nation to nation and from one kingdom to another, [14] he allowed no one to oppress them; he rebuked kings on their behalf: [15] "Do not touch my anointed ones, or harm my prophets." [16] He called down famine against the land and destroyed the entire food supply. [17] He had sent a man ahead of them- Joseph, who was sold as a slave. [18] They hurt his feet with shackles; his neck was put in an iron collar. [19] Until the time his prediction came true, the word of the LORD tested him. [20] The king sent for him and released him; the ruler of peoples set him free. [21] He made him master of his household, ruler over all his possessions- [22] binding his officials at will and instructing his elders. [23] Then Israel went to Egypt; Jacob lived as an alien in the land of Ham. [24] The LORD made his people very fruitful; he made them more numerous than their foes, [25] whose hearts he turned to hate his people and to deal deceptively with his servants. [26] He sent Moses his servant, and Aaron, whom he had chosen. [27] They performed his miraculous signs among them and wonders in the land of Ham. [28] He sent darkness, and it became dark- for did they not defy his commands? [29] He turned their water into blood and caused their fish to die. [30] Their land was overrun with frogs, even in their royal chambers. [31] He spoke, and insects came- gnats throughout their country. [32] He gave them hail for rain, and lightning throughout their land. [33] He struck their vines and fig trees and shattered the trees of their territory. [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. [36] He struck all the firstborn in their land, all their first progeny. [37] Then he brought Israel out with silver and gold, and no one among his tribes stumbled. [38] Egypt was glad when they left, for the dread of Israel had fallen on them. [39] He spread a cloud as a covering and gave a fire to light up the night. [40] They asked, and he brought quail and satisfied them with bread from heaven. [41] He opened a rock, and water gushed out; it flowed like a stream in the desert. [42] For he remembered his holy promise to Abraham his servant. [43] He brought his people out with rejoicing, his chosen ones with shouts of joy. [44] He gave them the lands of the nations, and they inherited what other peoples had worked for. [45] All this happened so that they might keep his statutes and obey his instructions. Hallelujah!
