1Give thanks to the LORD. Call on his name. Tell the peoples what he has done.
2Sing to him, sing psalms to him. Talk of all his wonderful works.
3Take glory in his holy name. Let the hearts of those who seek the LORD rejoice.
4Seek the LORD, and his strength. Seek his face always.
5Remember the marvellous works he has done, his wonders, and the judgments of his mouth,
7He is the LORD our God. His judgments are in all the earth.
8He has remembered his covenant for ever, the word he commanded to a thousand generations.
10He made it stand for Jacob as a law, and for Israel as an everlasting covenant,
11saying, "To you I will give the land of Canaan, the portion you will inherit."
12There were only a few of them then, very few, and they were strangers in the land.
13They went from one nation to another, from one kingdom to another people.
14He allowed no one to do them wrong. He even rebuked kings for their sake,
15saying, "Do not touch my anointed ones, and do my prophets no harm."
16He called for a famine on the land. He broke the whole supply of bread.
17He sent a man ahead of them, Joseph, who was sold as a slave.
18They hurt his feet with chains. He was laid in irons,
19until the time his word came true. The word of the LORD tested him.
20The king sent and set him free. The ruler of the people let him go free.
21He made him lord of his house, and ruler of all he owned,
22to bind his princes as he pleased, and to teach his elders wisdom.
24He made his people increase greatly, and made them stronger than their enemies.
25He turned their hearts to hate his people, and to deal craftily with his servants.
27They showed his signs among them, and wonders in the land of Ham.
28He sent darkness, and made it dark. And they did not rebel against his word.
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 through all their land.
32He gave them hail instead of rain, and flaming fire in their land.
33He struck their vines and their fig trees, and broke the trees of their land.
34He spoke, and the locusts came, and caterpillars beyond counting.
35They ate up all the plants in their land, and devoured the fruit of their ground.
36He also struck down all the firstborn in their land, the first of all their strength.
37He brought them out with silver and gold, and there was not one weak person among their tribes.
38Egypt was glad when they left, for the fear of them had fallen on Egypt.
39He spread out a cloud to cover them, and fire to give light in the night.
40The people asked, and he brought quails, and filled them with the bread of heaven.
41He opened the rock, and the waters gushed out. They ran through the dry places like a river.
42For he remembered his holy promise, and Abraham his servant.
43He brought his people out with joy, his chosen ones with singing.
44He gave them the lands of the nations, and they took over what other peoples had worked for,
45so that they might observe his statutes and keep his laws. Praise the LORD.
