Psalm 105:1–15

GOD’S FAITHFULNESS TO HIS PEOPLE

¹Give thanks to the Lord, call on his name;

proclaim his deeds among the peoples.^ab

²Sing to him, sing praise to him;

tell about all his wondrous works!^ac

³Boast in his holy name;

let the hearts of those who seek the Lord rejoice.^ad

⁴Seek the Lord and his strength;

seek his face always.^ae

⁵Remember the wondrous works he has done,

his wonders, and the judgments he has pronounced,^Ca

⁶you offspring of Abraham his servant,

Jacob’s descendants—his chosen ones.^b

⁷He is the Lord our God;

his judgments govern the whole earth.^c

⁸He remembers his covenant forever,

the promise he ordained

for a thousand generations^d—

⁹the covenant he made with Abraham,

swore^D to Isaac,^e

¹⁰and confirmed to Jacob as a decree

and to Israel as a permanent covenant:^f

¹¹“I will give the land of Canaan to you

as your inherited portion.”^g

¹²When they were few in number,

very few indeed,

and resident aliens in Canaan,^h

¹³wandering from nation to nation

and from one kingdom to another,ⁱ

¹⁴he allowed no one to oppress them;

he rebuked kings on their behalf:^j

¹⁵“Do not touch my anointed ones,^k

or harm my prophets.”^l
