Psalm 105:1–15

God’s Love for Israel

105Give thanks to the Lord and pray to him.

Tell the nations what he has done.

²Sing to him; sing praises to him.

Tell about all his miracles.

³Be glad that you are his;

let those who seek the Lord be happy.

⁴Depend on the Lord and his strength;

always go to him for help.

⁵Remember the miracles he has done;

remember his wonders and his decisions.

⁶You are descendants of his servant Abraham,

the children of Jacob, his chosen people.

⁷He is the Lord our God.

His laws are for all the world.

⁸He will keep his agreement forever;

he will keep his promises always.

⁹He will keep the agreement he made with Abraham

and the promise he made to Isaac.

¹⁰He made it a law for the people of Jacob;

he made it an agreement with Israel to last forever.

¹¹The Lord said, “I will give you the land of Canaan,

and it will belong to you.”

¹²Then God’s people were few in number.

They were strangers in the land.

¹³They went from one nation to another,

from one kingdom to another.

¹⁴But the Lord did not let anyone hurt them;

he warned kings not to harm them.

¹⁵He said, “Don’t touch my chosen people,

and don’t harm my prophets.”
