you offspring of Abraham his servant,

the covenant he made with Abraham,

swore[fn] to Isaac,

“I will give the land of Canaan to you

as your inherited portion.”

wandering from nation to nation

and from one kingdom to another,

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 105:14 -

he allowed no one to oppress them;

he rebuked kings on their behalf:

“Do not touch my anointed ones,

or harm my prophets.”

his neck was put in an iron collar.

Until the time his prediction came true,

the word of the LORD tested him.

binding[fn] his officials at will

and instructing his elders.

The LORD[fn] made his people very fruitful;

he made them more numerous than their foes,

whose hearts he turned to hate his people

and to deal deceptively with his servants.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 105:26 -

He sent Moses his servant,

and Aaron, whom he had chosen.

and lightning throughout their land.

He struck their vines and fig trees

and shattered the trees of their territory.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 105:34 -

He spoke, and locusts came —

young locusts without number.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 105:35 -

They devoured all the vegetation in their land

and consumed the produce of their land.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 105:36 -

He struck all the firstborn in their land,

all their first progeny.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 105:37 -

Then he brought Israel out with silver and gold,

and no one among his tribes stumbled.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 105:38 -

for the dread of Israel[fn] had fallen on them.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 105:39 -

He spread a cloud as a covering

and gave a fire to light up the night.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 105:40 -

They asked, and he brought quail

and satisfied them with bread from heaven.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 105:41 -

He opened a rock, and water gushed out;

it flowed like a stream in the desert.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 105:42 -

For he remembered his holy promise

to Abraham his servant.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 105:43 -

He brought his people out with rejoicing,

his chosen ones with shouts of joy.

He gave them the lands of the nations,

and they inherited

what other peoples had worked for.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 105:45 -

All this happened

so that they might keep his statutes

and obey his instructions.

Hallelujah!
