Tell of His Wonders

¹Give thanks to the LORD! Call on his name! Make his doings known amongst the peoples.+ ²Sing to him, sing praises to him! Tell of all his marvellous 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 marvellous works that he has done: his wonders, and the judgements of his mouth,+ ⁶you offspring of Abraham, his servant, you children of Jacob, his chosen ones.+ ⁷He is the LORD, our God. His judgements 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 amongst 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 amongst 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 labour of the peoples in possession,+ ⁴⁵that they might keep his statutes, and observe his laws. Praise the LORD!+
