Psalm 105
O give thanks to the Lord and call upon his name
: tell among the peoples what things he has done.
Sing to him, O sing praises
: and be telling of all his marvellous works.
Exult in his holy name
: and let those that seek the Lord be joyful in heart.
Seek the Lord and his strength
: O seek his face continually.
Call to mind what wonders he has done
: his marvellous acts, and the judgements of his mouth,
O seed of Abraham his servant
: O children of Jacob his chosen one.
Then he called down a famine on the land
: and destroyed the bread that was their stay.
But he had sent a man ahead of them
: Joseph who was sold into slavery,
Whose feet they fastened with fetters
: and thrust his neck into a hoop of iron.
Till the time that his words proved true
: he was tested by the Lords command.
Then the king sent and loosed him
: the ruler of nations set him free;
He made him master of his household
: and ruler over all his possessions,
To rebuke his officers at will
: and to teach his counsellors wisdom.
So that they might keep his statutes
: and faithfully obey his laws.
O praise the Lord.
