an, the lot of
your inheritance:
105:12 When they were but a few men in number; yea, very few, and
strangers in it.
105:13 When they went from one nation to another, from one kingdom to
another people;
105:14 He suffered no man to do them wrong: yea, he reproved kings for
their sakes;
105:15 Saying, Touch not mine anointed, and do my prophets no harm.
105:16 Moreover he called for a famine upon the land: he brake the
whole staff of bread.
105:17 He sent a man before them, even Joseph, who was sold for a
servant:
105:18 Whose feet they hurt with fetters: he was laid in iron:
105:19 Until the time that his word came: the word of the LORD tried
him.
105:20 The king sent and loosed him; even the ruler of the people, and
let him go free.
105:21 He made him lord of his house, and ruler of all his substance:
105:22 To bind his princes at his pleasure; and teach his senators
wisdom.
105:23 Israel also came into Egypt; and Jacob sojourned in the land of
Ham.
105:24 And he increased his people greatly; and made them stronger
than their enemies.
105:25 He turned their heart to hate his people, to deal subtilly with
his servants.
105:26 He sent Moses his servant; and Aaron whom he had chosen.
105:27 They shewed his signs among them, and wonders in the land of
Ham.
105:28 He sent darkness, and made it dark; and they rebelled not
against his word.
105:29 He turned their waters into blood, and slew their fish.
105:30 Their land brought forth frogs in abundance, in the chambers of
their kings.
105:31 He spake, and there came divers sorts of flies, and lice in all
their coasts.
105:32 He gave them hail for rain, and flaming fire in their land.
105:33 He smote their vines also and their fig trees; and brake the
trees of their coasts.
105:34 He spake, and the locusts came, and caterpillers, and that
without number,
105:35 And did eat up all the herbs in their land, and devoured the
fruit of their ground.
105:36 He smote also all the firstborn in their land, the chief of all
their strength.
105:37 He brought them forth also with silver and gold: and there was
not one feeble person among their tribes.
105:38 Egypt was glad when they departed: for the fear of them fell
upon them.
105:39 He spread a cloud for a covering; and fire to give light in the
night.
105:40 The people asked, and he brought quails, and satisfied them
with the bread of heaven.
105:41 He opened the rock, and the waters gushed out; they ran in the
dry places like a river.
105:42 For he remembered his holy promise, and Abraham his servant.
105:43 And he brought forth his people with joy, and his chosen with
gladness:
105:44 And gave them the lands of the heathen: and they inherited the
labour of the people;
105:45 That they might observe his statutes, and keep his laws. Praise
ye the LORD.
106:1 Praise ye the LORD. O give thanks unto the LORD; for he is good:
for his mercy endureth for ever.
106:2 Who can utter the mighty acts of the LORD? who can shew forth
all his praise?
106:3 Blessed are they that keep judgment, and he that doeth
righteousness at all times.
106:4 Remember me, O LORD, with the favour that thou bearest unto thy
people: O visit me with thy salvation;
106:5 That I may see the good of thy chosen, that I may rejoice in the
gladness of thy nation, that I may glory with thine inheritance.
106:6 We have sinned with our fathers, we have committed iniquity, we
have done wickedly.
106:7 Our fathers understood not thy wonders in Egypt; they remembered
not the multitude of thy mercies; but provoked him at the sea, even at
the Red sea.
106:8 Nevertheless he saved them for his name’s sake, that he might
make his mighty power to be known.
106:9 He rebuked the Red sea also, and it was dried up: so he led them
through the depths, as through the wilderness.
106:10 And he saved them from the hand of him that hated them, and
redeemed them from the hand of the enemy.
106:11 And the waters covered their enemies: there was not one of them
left.
106:12 Then believed they his words; they sang his praise.
106:13 They soon forgat his works; they waited not for his counsel:
106:14 But lusted exceedingly in the wilderness, and tempted God in
the desert.
106:15 And he gave them their request; but sent leanness into their
soul.
106:16 They envied Moses also in the camp, and Aaron the saint of the
LORD.
106:17 The earth opened and swallowed up Dathan and covered the
company of Abiram.
106:18 And a fire was kindled in their company; the flame burned up
the wicked.
106:19 They made a calf in Horeb, and worshipped the molten image.
106:20 Thus they changed their glory into the similitude of an ox that
eateth grass.
106:21 They forgat God their saviour, which had done great things in
Egypt;
106:22 Wondrous works in the land of Ham, and terrible things by the
Red sea.
106:23 Therefore he said that he would destroy them, had not Moses his
chosen stood before him in the breach, to turn away his wrath, lest he
should destroy them.
106:24 Yea, they despised the pleasant land, they believed not his
word:
106:25 But murmured in their tents, and hearkened not unto the voice
of the LORD.
106:26 Therefore he lifted up his hand against them, to overthrow them
in the wilderness:
106:27 To overthrow their seed also among the nations, and to scatter
them in the lands.
106:28 They joined themselves also unto Baalpeor, and ate the
sacrifices of the dead.
106:29 Thus they provoked him to anger with their inventions: and the
plague brake in upon them.
106:30 Then stood up Phinehas, and executed judgment: and so the
plague was stayed.
106:31 And that was counted unto him for righteousness unto all
generations for evermore.
106:32 They angered him also at the waters of strife, so that it went
ill with Moses for their sakes:
106:33 Because they provoked his spirit, so that he spake unadvisedly
with his lips.
106:34 They did not destroy the nations, concerning whom the LORD
commanded them:
106:35 But were mingled among the heathen, and learned their works.
106:36 And they served their idols: which were a snare unto them.
106:37 Yea, they sacrificed their sons and their daughters unto
devils,
106:38 And shed innocent blood, even the blood of their sons and of
their daughters, whom they sacrificed unto the idols of Canaan: and
the land was polluted with blood.
106:39 Thus were they defiled with their own works, and went a whoring
with their own inventions.
106:40 Therefore was the wrath of the LORD kindled against his people,
insomuch that he abhorred his own inheritance.
106:41 And he gave them into the hand of the heathen; and they that
hated them ruled over them.
106:42 Their enemies also oppressed them, and they were brought into
subjection under their hand.
106:43 Many times did he deliver them; but they provoked him with
their counsel, and were brought low for their iniquity.
106:44 Nevertheless he regarded their affliction, when he heard their
cry:
106:45 And he remembered for them his covenant, and repented according
to the multitude of his mercies.
106:46 He made them also to be pitied of all those that carried them
captives.
106:47 Save us, O LORD our God, and gather us from among the heathen,
to give thanks unto thy holy name, and to triumph in thy praise.
106:48 Blessed be the LORD God of Israel from everlasting to
everlasting: and let all the people say, Amen. Praise ye the LORD.
107:1 O give thanks unto the LORD, for he is good: for his mercy
endureth for ever.
107:2 Let the redeemed of the LORD say so, whom he hath redeemed from
the hand of the enemy;
107:3 And gathered them out of the lands, from the east, and from the
west, from the north, and from the south.
107:4 They wandered in the wilderness in a solitary way; they found no
city to dwell in.
107:5 Hungry and thirsty, their soul fainted in them.
107:6 Then they cried unto the LORD in their trouble, and he delivered
them out of their distresses.
107:7 And he led them forth by the right way, that they might go to a
city of habitation.
107:8 Oh that men would praise the LORD for his goodness, and for his
wonderful works to the children of men!
107:9 For he satisfieth the longing soul, and filleth the hungry soul
with goodness.
107:10 Such as sit in darkness and in the shadow of death, being bound
in affliction and iron;
107:11 Because they rebelled against the words of God, and contemned
the counsel of the most High:
107:12 Therefore he brought down their heart with labour; they fell
down, and there was none to help.
107:13 Then they cried unto the LORD in their trouble, and he saved
them out of their distresses.
107:14 He brought them out of darkness and the shadow of death, and
brake their bands in sunder.
107:15 Oh that men would praise the LORD for his goodness, and for his
wonderful works to the children of men!
107:16 For he hath broken the gates of brass, and cut the bars of iron
in sunder.
107:17 Fools because of their transgression, and because of their
iniquities, are afflicted.
107:18 Their soul abhorreth all manner of meat; and they draw near
unto the gates of death.
107:19 Then they cry unto the LORD in their trouble, and he saveth
them out of their distresses.
107:20 He sent his word, and healed them, and delivered them from
their destructions.
107:21 Oh that men would praise the LORD for his goodness, and for his
wonderful works to the children of men!
107:22 And let them sacrifice the sacrifices of thanksgiving, and
declare his works with rejoicing.
107:23 They that go down to the sea in ships, that do business in
great waters;
107:24 These see the works of the LORD, and his wonders in the deep.
107:25 For he commandeth, and raiseth the stormy wind, which lifteth
up the waves thereof.
107:26 They mount up to the heaven, they go down again to the depths:
their soul is melted because of trouble.
107:27 They reel to and fro, and stagger like a drunken man, and are
at their wit’s end.
107:28 Then they cry unto the LORD in their trouble, and he bringeth
them out of their distresses.
107:29 He maketh the storm a calm, so that the waves thereof are
still.
107:30 Then are they glad because they be quiet; so he bringeth them
unto their desired haven.
107:31 Oh that men would praise the LORD for his goodness, and for his
wonderful works to the children of men!
107:32 Let them exalt him also in the congregation of the people, and
praise him in the assembly of the elders.
107:33 He turneth rivers into a wilderness, and the watersprings into
dry ground;
107:34 A fruitful land into barrenness, for the wickedness of them
that dwell therein.
107:35 He turneth the wilderness into a standing water, and dry ground
into watersprings.
107:36 And there he maketh the hungry to dwell, that they may prepare
a city for habitation;
107:37 And sow the fields, and plant vineyards, which may yield fruits
of increase.
107:38 He blesseth them also, so that they are multiplied greatly; and
suffereth not their cattle to decrease.
107:39 Again, they are minished and brought low through oppression,
affliction, and sorrow.
107:40 He poureth contempt upon princes, and causeth them to wander in
the wilderness, where there is no way.
107:41 Yet setteth he the poor on high from affliction, and maketh him
families like a flock.
107:42 The righteous shall see it, and rejoice: and all iniquity shall
stop her mouth.
107:43 Whoso is wise, and will observe these things, even they shall
understand the lovingkindness of the LORD.
108:1 O god, my heart is fixed; I will sing and give praise, even with
my glory.
108:2 Awake, psaltery and harp:
