105:1Give thanks to the Lord!
Call on his name!
Make known his accomplishments among the nations!
105:2Sing to him!
Make music to him!
Tell about all his miraculous deeds!
105:3Boast about his holy name!
Let the hearts of those who seek the Lord rejoice!
105:4Seek the Lord and the strength he gives!
Seek his presence continually!
105:5Recall the miraculous deeds he performed,
his mighty acts and the judgments he decreed,1
105:6O children2 of Abraham,3 God’s4 servant,
you descendants5 of Jacob, God’s6 chosen ones!
105:7He is the Lord our God;
he carries out judgment throughout the earth.7
105:8He always remembers his covenantal decree,
the promise he made8 to a thousand generations—
105:9the promise9 he made to Abraham,
the promise he made by oath to Isaac!
105:10He gave it to Jacob as a decree,
to Israel as a lasting promise,10
105:11saying, “To you I will give the land of Canaan
as the portion of your inheritance.”
105:12When they were few in number,
just a very few, and resident aliens within it,
105:13they wandered from nation to nation,
and from one kingdom to another.11
105:14He let no one oppress them;
he disciplined kings for their sake,
105:15saying,12 “Don’t touch my chosen13 ones!
Don’t harm my prophets!”
