God and His People
1Give thanks to the LORD, proclaim his greatness; tell the nations what he has done.
2Sing praise to the LORD; tell the wonderful things he has done.
3Be glad that we belong to him; let all who worship him rejoice.
4Go to the LORD for help; and worship him continually.
5You descendants of Abraham, his servant; you descendants of Jacob, the man he chose: remember the miracles that God performed and the judgments that he gave.
6(105:5)
7The LORD is our God; his commands are for all the world.
8He will keep his covenant forever, his promises for a thousand generations.
9He will keep the agreement he made with Abraham and his promise to Isaac.
10The LORD made a covenant with Jacob, one that will last forever.
11“I will give you the land of Canaan,” he said. “It will be your own possession.”
12God's people were few in number, strangers in the land of Canaan.
13They wandered from country to country, from one kingdom to another.
14But God let no one oppress them; to protect them, he warned the kings:
15“Don't harm my chosen servants; do not touch my prophets.”
16The LORD sent famine to their country and took away all their food.
17But he sent a man ahead of them, Joseph, who had been sold as a slave.
18His feet were kept in chains, and an iron collar was around his neck,
19until what he had predicted came true. The word of the LORD proved him right.
20Then the king of Egypt had him released; the ruler of nations set him free.
21He put him in charge of his government and made him ruler over all the land,
22with power over the king's officials and authority to instruct his advisers.
23Then Jacob went to Egypt and settled in that country.
24The LORD gave many children to his people and made them stronger than their enemies.
25He made the Egyptians hate his people and treat his servants with deceit.
26Then he sent his servant Moses, and Aaron, whom he had chosen.
27They did God's mighty acts and performed miracles in Egypt.
28God sent darkness on the country, but the Egyptians did not obey his command.
29He turned their rivers into blood and killed all their fish.
30Their country was overrun with frogs; even the palace was filled with them.
31God commanded, and flies and gnats swarmed throughout the whole country.
32He sent hail and lightning on their land instead of rain;
33he destroyed their grapevines and fig trees and broke down all the trees.
34He commanded, and the locusts came, countless millions of them;
35they ate all the plants in the land; they ate all the crops.
36He killed the first-born sons of all the families of Egypt.
37Then he led the Israelites out; they carried silver and gold, and all of them were healthy and strong.
38The Egyptians were afraid of them and were glad when they left.
39God put a cloud over his people and a fire at night to give them light.
40They asked, and he sent quails; he gave them food from heaven to satisfy them.
41He opened a rock, and water gushed out, flowing through the desert like a river.
42He remembered his sacred promise to Abraham his servant.
43So he led his chosen people out, and they sang and shouted for joy.
44He gave them the lands of other peoples and let them take over their fields,
45so that his people would obey his laws and keep all his commands. Praise the LORD!
