Remember His Wondrous Deeds
Oh agive thanks to Yahweh, bcall upon His name;
cMake known His acts among the peoples.
2 Sing to Him, asing praises to Him;
bMuse on all His wondrous deeds.
3 Boast in His holy name;
Let the aheart of those who seek Yahweh be glad.
4 Inquire of Yahweh and aHis strength;
bSeek His face continually.
5 Remember His awondrous deeds which He has done,
His miracles and the bjudgments uttered by His mouth,
6 O seed of aAbraham, His servant,
O sons of bJacob, His cchosen ones!
7 He is Yahweh our God;
His ajudgments are in all the earth.
8 He has aremembered His covenant forever,
The word which He commanded for a bthousand generations,
9 aWhich He cut with Abraham,
And His boath to Isaac.
10 Then He aconfirmed it to Jacob for a statute,
To Israel as an everlasting covenant,
11 Saying, “aTo you I will give the land of Canaan
As the bportion of your inheritance,”
12 When they were only a afew men in number,
Of little account, and bsojourners in it.
13 And they wandered about from nation to nation,
From one kingdom to another people.
14 He apermitted no man to oppress them,
And He breproved kings for their sakes:
15 “aDo not touch My anointed ones,
And to My prophets do no evil.”
16 And He acalled for a famine upon the land;
He bbroke the whole staff of bread.
17 He asent a man before them,
Joseph, who was bsold as a slave.
18 They afflicted his afeet with fetters,
He himself was laid in irons;
19 Until the time that his aword came to pass,
The word of Yahweh brefined him.
20 The aking sent and released him,
The ruler of peoples sent and set him free.
21 He aset him up as lord of his house
And ruler over all his possessions,
22 To imprison his princes aat will,
And that he might teach his elders wisdom.
23 aThen Israel came to Egypt;
And Jacob bsojourned in the land of Ham.
24 And He acaused His people to be very fruitful,
And He caused them to be stronger than their adversaries.
25 He aturned their heart to hate His people,
To bdeal craftily with His slaves.
26 He asent Moses His servant,
And bAaron, whom He had chosen.
27 They aset forth the words of His signs among them,
And miracles in the land of Ham.
28 He asent darkness and made it dark;
And they did not brebel against His words.
29 He aturned their waters into blood
And caused their fish to die.
30 Their land swarmed with afrogs
Even in the bchambers of their kings.
31 He spoke, and there came a aswarm of flies
And bgnats in all their territory.
32 He gave them ahail for rain,
And flaming fire in their land.
33 He also astruck down their vines and their fig trees,
And He shattered the trees of their territory.
34 He spoke, and alocusts came,
And creeping locusts, without number,
35 And they ate up all vegetation in their land,
And they ate up the fruit of their ground.
36 He also astruck down all the firstborn in their land,
The bfirst of all their vigor.
37 Then He brought them out with asilver and gold,
And there was none among His tribes who stumbled.
38 Egypt was aglad when they went out,
For the bdread of them had fallen upon them.
39 He spread a acloud for a covering,
And bfire to give light by night.
40 They aasked, and He brought bquail,
And He satisfied them with the cbread of heaven.
41 He opened the rock and awater flowed out;
It ran in the dry places like a river.
42 For He aremembered His holy word
With Abraham His servant;
43 And He brought His people out with joy,
His chosen ones with a shout of ajoy.
44 He agave them also the lands of the nations,
That they bmight take possession of the fruit of the peoples’ labor,
45 So that they might akeep His statutes
And observe His laws,
Praise Yah!
