Psalms 105

1

Psalm 105

1

Give thanks to the LORD, call on his name; make known among the nations what he has done.

2

Sing to him, sing praise to him; tell of all his wonderful acts.

3

Glory in his holy name; let the hearts of those who seek the LORD rejoice.

4

Look to the LORD and his strength; seek his face always.

5

Remember the wonders he has done, his miracles, and the judgments he pronounced,

6

O descendants of Abraham his servant, O sons of Jacob, his chosen ones.

7

He is the LORD our God; his judgments are in all the earth.

8

He remembers his covenant forever, the word he commanded, for a thousand generations,

9

the covenant he made with Abraham, the oath he swore to Isaac.

10

He confirmed it to Jacob as a decree, to Israel as an everlasting covenant:

11

"To you I will give the land of Canaan as the portion you will inherit."

12

When they were but few in number, few indeed, and strangers in it,

13

they wandered from nation to nation, from one kingdom to another.

14

He allowed no one to oppress them; for their sake he rebuked kings:

15

"Do not touch my anointed ones; do my prophets no harm."

16

He called down famine on the land and destroyed all their supplies of food;

17

and he sent a man before them-- Joseph, sold as a slave.

18

They bruised his feet with shackles, his neck was put in irons,

19

till what he foretold came to pass, till the word of the LORD proved him true.

20

The king sent and released him, the ruler of peoples set him free.

21

He made him master of his household, ruler over all he possessed,

22

to instruct his princes as he pleased and teach his elders wisdom.

23

Then Israel entered Egypt; Jacob lived as an alien in the land of Ham.

24

The LORD made his people very fruitful; he made them too numerous for their foes,

25

whose hearts he turned to hate his people, to conspire against his servants.

26

He sent Moses his servant, and Aaron, whom he had chosen.

27

They performed his miraculous signs among them, his wonders in the land of Ham.

28

He sent darkness and made the land dark-- for had they not rebelled against his words?

29

He turned their waters into blood, causing their fish to die.

30

Their land teemed with frogs, which went up into the bedrooms of their rulers.

31

He spoke, and there came swarms of flies, and gnats throughout their country.

32

He turned their rain into hail, with lightning throughout their land;

33

he struck down their vines and fig trees and shattered the trees of their country.

34

He spoke, and the locusts came, grasshoppers without number;

35

they ate up every green thing in their land, ate up the produce of their soil.

36

Then he struck down all the firstborn in their land, the firstfruits of all their manhood.

37

He brought out Israel, laden with silver and gold, and from among their tribes no one faltered.

38

Egypt was glad when they left, because dread of Israel had fallen on them.

39

He spread out a cloud as a covering, and a fire to give light at night.

40

They asked, and he brought them quail and satisfied them with the bread of heaven.

41

He opened the rock, and water gushed out; like a river it flowed in the desert.

42

For he remembered his holy promise given to his servant Abraham.

43

He brought out his people with rejoicing, his chosen ones with shouts of joy;

44

he gave them the lands of the nations, and they fell heir to what others had toiled for--

45

that they might keep his precepts and observe his laws. Praise the LORD.

Psalms 106

1

Psalm 106

1

Praise the LORD. Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good; his love endures forever.

2

Who can proclaim the mighty acts of the LORD or fully declare his praise?

3

Blessed are they who maintain justice, who constantly do what is right.

4

Remember me, O LORD, when you show favor to your people, come to my aid when you save them,

5

that I may enjoy the prosperity of your chosen ones, that I may share in the joy of your nation and join your inheritance in giving praise.

6

We have sinned, even as our fathers did; we have done wrong and acted wickedly.

7

When our fathers were in Egypt, they gave no thought to your miracles; they did not remember your many kindnesses, and they rebelled by the sea, the Red Sea.

8

Yet he saved them for his name's sake, to make his mighty power known.

9

He rebuked the Red Sea, and it dried up; he led them through the depths as through a desert.

10

He saved them from the hand of the foe; from the hand of the enemy he redeemed them.

11

The waters covered their adversaries; not one of them survived.

12

Then they believed his promises and sang his praise.

13

But they soon forgot what he had done and did not wait for his counsel.

14

In the desert they gave in to their craving; in the wasteland they put God to the test.

15

So he gave them what they asked for, but sent a wasting disease upon them.

16

In the camp they grew envious of Moses and of Aaron, who was consecrated to the LORD.

17

The earth opened up and swallowed Dathan; it buried the company of Abiram.

18

Fire blazed among their followers; a flame consumed the wicked.

19

At Horeb they made a calf and worshiped an idol cast from metal.

20

They exchanged their Glory for an image of a bull, which eats grass.

21

They forgot the God who saved them, who had done great things in Egypt,

22

miracles in the land of Ham and awesome deeds by the Red Sea.

23

So he said he would destroy them-- had not Moses, his chosen one, stood in the breach before him to keep his wrath from destroying them.

24

Then they despised the pleasant land; they did not believe his promise.

25

They grumbled in their tents and did not obey the LORD.

26

So he swore to them with uplifted hand that he would make them fall in the desert,

27

make their descendants fall among the nations and scatter them throughout the lands.

28

They yoked themselves to the Baal of Peor and ate sacrifices offered to lifeless gods;

29

they provoked the LORD to anger by their wicked deeds, and a plague broke out among them.

30

But Phinehas stood up and intervened, and the plague was checked.

31

This was credited to him as righteousness for endless generations to come.

32

By the waters of Meribah they angered the LORD, and trouble came to Moses because of them;

33

for they rebelled against the Spirit of God, and rash words came from Moses' lips.

34

They did not destroy the peoples as the LORD had commanded them,

35

but they mingled with the nations and adopted their customs.

36

They worshiped their idols, which became a snare to them.

37

They sacrificed their sons and their daughters to demons.

38

They shed innocent blood, the blood of their sons and daughters, whom they sacrificed to the idols of Canaan, and the land was desecrated by their blood.

39

They defiled themselves by what they did; by their deeds they prostituted themselves.

40

Therefore the LORD was angry with his people and abhorred his inheritance.

41

He handed them over to the nations, and their foes ruled over them.

42

Their enemies oppressed them and subjected them to their power.

43

Many times he delivered them, but they were bent on rebellion and they wasted away in their sin.

44

But he took note of their distress when he heard their cry;

45

for their sake he remembered his covenant and out of his great love he relented.

46

He caused them to be pitied by all who held them captive.

47

Save us, O LORD our God, and gather us from the nations, that we may give thanks to your holy name and glory in your praise.

48

Praise be to the LORD, the God of Israel, from everlasting to everlasting. Let all the people say, "Amen!" Praise the LORD.

Psalms 107

1

Psalm 107

1

Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good; his love endures forever.

2

Let the redeemed of the LORD say this-- those he redeemed from the hand of the foe,

3

those he gathered from the lands, from east and west, from north and south.

4

Some wandered in desert wastelands, finding no way to a city where they could settle.

5

They were hungry and thirsty, and their lives ebbed away.

6

Then they cried out to the LORD in their trouble, and he delivered them from their distress.

7

He led them by a straight way to a city where they could settle.

8

Let them give thanks to the LORD for his unfailing love and his wonderful deeds for men,

9

for he satisfies the thirsty and fills the hungry with good things.

10

Some sat in darkness and the deepest gloom, prisoners suffering in iron chains,

11

for they had rebelled against the words of God and despised the counsel of the Most High.

12

So he subjected them to bitter labor; they stumbled, and there was no one to help.

13

Then they cried to the LORD in their trouble, and he saved them from their distress.

14

He brought them out of darkness and the deepest gloom and broke away their chains.

15

Let them give thanks to the LORD for his unfailing love and his wonderful deeds for men,

16

for he breaks down gates of bronze and cuts through bars of iron.

17

Some became fools through their rebellious ways and suffered affliction because of their iniquities.

18

They loathed all food and drew near the gates of death.

19

Then they cried to the LORD in their trouble, and he saved them from their distress.

20

He sent forth his word and healed them; he rescued them from the grave.

21

Let them give thanks to the LORD for his unfailing love and his wonderful deeds for men.

22

Let them sacrifice thank offerings and tell of his works with songs of joy.

23

Others went out on the sea in ships; they were merchants on the mighty waters.

24

They saw the works of the LORD, his wonderful deeds in the deep.

25

For he spoke and stirred up a tempest that lifted high the waves.

26

They mounted up to the heavens and went down to the depths; in their peril their courage melted away.

27

They reeled and staggered like drunken men; they were at their wits' end.

28

Then they cried out to the LORD in their trouble, and he brought them out of their distress.

29

He stilled the storm to a whisper; the waves of the sea were hushed.

30

They were glad when it grew calm, and he guided them to their desired haven.

31

Let them give thanks to the LORD for his unfailing love and his wonderful deeds for men.

32

Let them exalt him in the assembly of the people and praise him in the council of the elders.

33

He turned rivers into a desert, flowing springs into thirsty ground,

34

and fruitful land into a salt waste, because of the wickedness of those who lived there.

35

He turned the desert into pools of water and the parched ground into flowing springs;

36

there he brought the hungry to live, and they founded a city where they could settle.

37

They sowed fields and planted vineyards that yielded a fruitful harvest;

38

he blessed them, and their numbers greatly increased, and he did not let their herds diminish.

39

Then their numbers decreased, and they were humbled by oppression, calamity and sorrow;

40

he who pours contempt on nobles made them wander in a trackless waste.

41

But he lifted the needy out of their affliction and increased their families like flocks.

42

The upright see and rejoice, but all the wicked shut their mouths.

43

Whoever is wise, let him heed these things and consider the great love of the LORD.
