PSALM 105
Common Meter: 8,6,8,6
1Give thanks to God, call on his name;
to men his deeds make known.
2Sing ye to him, sing psalms; proclaim
his wondrous works each one.
3See that ye in his holy name
to glory do accord;
And let the heart of ev'ry one
rejoice that seeks the Lord.
4The Lord Almighty, and his strength,
with stedfast hearts seek ye:
His blessed and his gracious face
seek ye continually.
5Think on the works that he hath done,
which admiration breed;
His wonders, and the judgments all
which from his mouth proceed;
6O ye that are of Abr'ham's race,
his servant well approv'n;
And ye that Jacob's children are,
whom he chose for his own.
7Because he, and he only, is
the mighty Lord our God;
And his most righteous judgments are
in all the earth abroad.
8His cov'nant he remember'd hath,
that it may ever stand:
To thousand generations
the word he did command.
9Which covenant he firmly made
with faithful Abraham,
And unto Isaac, by his oath,
he did renew the same:
10And unto Jacob, for a law,
he made it firm and sure,
A covenant to Israel,
which ever should endure.
11He said, I'll give Canaan's land
for heritage to you;
12While they were strangers there,
and few, in number very few:
13While yet they went from land to land
without a sure abode;
And while through sundry kingdoms they
did wander far abroad;
14Yet, notwithstanding suffer'd he
no man to do them wrong:
Yea, for their sakes, he did reprove
kings, who were great and strong.
15Thus did he say, Touch ye not those
that mine anointed be,
Nor do the prophets any harm
that do pertain to me.
16He call'd for famine on the land,
he brake the staff of bread:
17But yet he sent a man before,
by whom they should be fed;
Ev'n Joseph, whom unnat'rally
sell for a slave did they;
18Whose feet with fetters they did hurt,
and he in irons lay;
19Until the time that his word came
to give him liberty;
The word and purpose of the Lord
did him in prison try.
20Then sent the king, and did command
that he enlarg'd should be:
He that the people's ruler was
did send to set him free.
21A lord to rule his family
he rais'd him, as most fit;
To him of all that he possess'd
he did the charge commit:
22That he might at his pleasure bind
the princes of the land;
And he might teach his senators
wisdom to understand.
23The people then of Israel
down into Egypt came;
And Jacob also sojourned
within the land of Ham.
24And he did greatly by his pow'r
increase his people there;
And stronger than their enemies
they by his blessing were.
25Their heart he turned to envy
his folk maliciously,
With those that his own servants were
to deal in subtilty.
26His servant Moses he did send,
Aaron his chosen one.
27By these his signs and wonders great
in Ham's land were made known.
28Darkness he sent, and made it dark;
his word they did obey.
29He turn'd their waters into blood,
and he their fish did slay.
30The land in plenty brought forth frogs
in chambers of their kings.
31His word all sorts of flies and lice
in all their borders brings.
32He hail for rain, and flaming fire
into their land he sent:
33And he their vines and fig-trees smote:
trees of their coasts he rent.
34He spake, and caterpillars came,
locusts did much abound;
35Which in their land all herbs consum'd,
and all fruits of their ground.
36He smote all first-born in their land,
chief of their strength each one.
37With gold and silver brought them forth,
weak in their tribes were none.
38Egypt was glad when forth they went,
their fear on them did light.
39He spread a cloud for covering,
and fire to shine by night.
40They ask'd, and he brought quails:
with bread of heav'n he filled them.
41He open'd rocks, floods gush'd,
and ran in deserts like a stream.
42For on his holy promise he,
and servant Abr'ham, thought.
43With joy his people, his elect
with gladness, forth he brought.
44And unto them the pleasant lands
he of the heathen gave;
That of the people's labour they
inheritance might have.
45That they his statutes might observe
according to his word;
And that they might his laws obey.
Give praise unto the Lord.

105
PSALM 105
1 Alleluia. Acknowledge ye to the Lord, and inwardly call ye his name; tell ye his works among heathen men#105:1 Compare Psalm 105:1-15 to 1st Chronicles 16:8-22..
2Sing ye to him, and say ye psalm to him, and tell ye all his marvels;
3be ye praised in his holy name. The heart of men seeking the Lord be glad;
4seek ye the Lord, and be ye con-firmed; seek ye ever[more] his face.
5Have ye mind on his marvels, which he did; on his great wonders, and dooms of his mouth.
6The seed of Abraham, his servant; the sons of Jacob, his chosen man.
7He is our Lord God; his dooms be in all the earth.
8He was mindful of his testament into the world; of the word which he commanded into a thousand gener-ations.
9Which he disposed to Abraham; and of his oath to Isaac.
10And he ordained it to Jacob into a commandment; and to Israel into everlasting testament.
11And he said, I shall give to thee the land of Canaan; the cord of your heritage.
12When they were in a little number; and the comelings of them were full few.
13And they passed from folk into folk; and from a realm into another people.
14He left not a man to annoy them; and he chastised kings for them.
15 Saying, Do not ye touch my christs; and do not ye do wickedly among my prophets.
16And God called hunger on earth; and he wasted all the steadfastness of bread.
17He sent a man before them; Joseph was sold into a servant.
18They made low his feet in fetters, iron passed by [or through] his soul;
19till the word of him came. The speech of the Lord enflamed him;
20the king sent and unbound him; the prince of peoples sent and delivered him.
21He ordained him lord of his house; and prince of all his possessions.
22That he should learn [or teach] his princes as himself; and that he should teach his eld [or old] men prudence.
23And Israel entered into Egypt; and Jacob was a comeling in the land of Ham.
24And God increased his people greatly; and made them steadfast on his enemies.
25He turned the heart of them, that they hated his people; and did guile [or treachery] against his servants.
26He sent Moses, his servant; [and] that Aaron, whom he chose.
27He putted [or put] in them to tell and to do the words of his miracles; and of his great wonders in the land of Ham.
28He sent darknesses, and made it dark; and he made not bitter his words.
29He turned the waters of them into blood; and he killed the fishes of them.
30And the land of them gave pad-docks; in the privy places of the kings of them.
31 God said, and a flesh fly [or hound flea] came; and gnats in all the coasts of them.
32He setted [or put] their rains into hail; fire burning in the land of them.
33And he smote the vines of them, and the fig trees of them; and all-brake the trees of the coasts of them.
34He said, and the locust came; and a bruchus of which there was no number.
35And it ate all the hay in the land of them; and it ate all the fruit of the land of them.
36And he killed each the first engen-dered thing in the land of them; the first fruits of all the travail of them.
37And he led out them with silver and gold; and none was sick in the lineages of them.
38Egypt was glad in the going out of them; for the dread of them lay on Egyptians.
39He spreaded abroad a cloud, into the covering of them; and fire, that it shined to them by night.
40They asked, and a curlew came; and he [ful] filled them with the bread of heaven.
41He brake the stone, and waters flowed; floods went forth in the dry place.
42For he was mindful of his holy word; which he had to Abraham, his servant.
43And he led out his people in full out joying; and his chosen men in gladness.
44And he gave to them the countries of heathen men; and they had in possession the travails of peoples.
45That they keep his justifyings; and keep his law.
