1O give thanks unto the Lord; call upon his name: make known his deeds among the people.
1Give glory to the Lord, for he is good: for his mercy endureth for ever.
2Sing unto him, sing psalms unto him: talk ye of all his wondrous works.
2Who shall declare the powers of the Lord? who shall set forth all his praises?
3Glory ye in his holy name: let the heart of them rejoice that seek the Lord.
3Blessed are they that keep judgment, and do justice at all times.
4Seek the Lord, and his strength: seek his face evermore.
4Remember us, O Lord, in the favour of thy people: visit us with thy salvation.
5Remember his marvellous works that he hath done; his wonders, and the judgments of his mouth;
5That we may see the good of thy chosen, that we may rejoice in the joy of thy nation: that thou mayst be praised with thy inheritance.
6O ye seed of Abraham his servant, ye children of Jacob his chosen.
6We have sinned with our fathers: we have acted unjustly, we have wrought iniquity.
7He is the Lord our God: his judgments are in all the earth.
7Our fathers understood not thy wonders in Egypt: they remembered not the multitude of thy mercies: And they provoked to wrath going up to the sea, even the Red Sea.
8He hath remembered his covenant for ever, the word which he commanded to a thousand generations.
8And he saved them for his own name's sake: that he might make his power known.
9Which covenant he made with Abraham, and his oath unto Isaac;
9And he rebuked the Red Sea and it was dried up: and he led them through the depths, as in a wilderness.
10And confirmed the same unto Jacob for a law, and to Israel for an everlasting covenant:
10And he saved them from the hand of them that hated them: and he redeemed them from the hand of the enemy.
11Saying, Unto thee will I give the land of Canaan, the lot of your inheritance:
11And the water covered them that afflicted them: there was not one of them left.
12When they were but a few men in number; yea, very few, and strangers in it.
12And they believed his words: and they sang his praises.
13When they went from one nation to another, from one kingdom to another people;
13They had quickly done, they forgot his works: and they waited not for his counsel.
14He suffered no man to do them wrong: yea, he reproved kings for their sakes;
14And they coveted their desire in the desert: and they tempted God in the place without water.
15Saying, Touch not mine anointed, and do my prophets no harm.
15And he gave them their request: and sent fulness into their souls.
16Moreover he called for a famine upon the land: he brake the whole staff of bread.
16And they provoked Moses in the camp, Aaron the holy one of the Lord.
17He sent a man before them, even Joseph, who was sold for a servant:
17The earth opened and swallowed up Dathan: and covered the congregation of Abiron.
18Whose feet they hurt with fetters: he was laid in iron:
18And a fire was kindled in their congregation: the flame burned the wicked.
19Until the time that his word came: the word of the Lord tried him.
19They made also a calf in Horeb: and they adored the graven thing.
20The king sent and loosed him; even the ruler of the people, and let him go free.
20And they changed their glory into the likeness of a calf that eateth grass.
21He made him lord of his house, and ruler of all his substance:
21They forgot God, who saved them, who had done great things in Egypt,
22To bind his princes at his pleasure; and teach his senators wisdom.
22Wondrous works in the land of Cham: terrible things in the Red Sea.
23Israel also came into Egypt; and Jacob sojourned in the land of Ham.
23And 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.
24And he increased his people greatly; and made them stronger than their enemies.
24And they set at nought the desirable land. They believed not his word,
25He turned their heart to hate his people, to deal subtilly with his servants.
25And they murmured in their tents: they hearkened not to the voice of the Lord.
26He sent Moses his servant; and Aaron whom he had chosen.
26And he lifted up his hand over them: to overthrow them in the desert;
27They shewed his signs among them, and wonders in the land of Ham.
27And to cast down their seed among the nations, and to scatter them in the countries.
28He sent darkness, and made it dark; and they rebelled not against his word.
28They also were initiated to Beelphegor: and ate the sacrifices of the dead.
29He turned their waters into blood, and slew their fish.
29And they provoked him with their inventions: and destruction was multiplied among them.
30Their land brought forth frogs in abundance, in the chambers of their kings.
30Then Phinees stood up, and pacified him: and the slaughter ceased.
31He spake, and there came divers sorts of flies, and lice in all their coasts.
31And it was reputed to him unto justice, to generation and generation for evermore.
32He gave them hail for rain, and flaming fire in their land.
32They provoked him also at the waters of contradiction: and Moses was afflicted for their sakes:
33He smote their vines also and their fig trees; and brake the trees of their coasts.
33Because they exasperated his spirit. And he distinguished with his lips.
34He spake, and the locusts came, and caterpillers, and that without number,
34They did not destroy the nations of which the Lord spoke unto them.
35And did eat up all the herbs in their land, and devoured the fruit of their ground.
35And they were mingled among the heathens, and learned their works:
36He smote also all the firstborn in their land, the chief of all their strength.
36And served their idols, and it became a stumblingblock to them.
37He brought them forth also with silver and gold: and there was not one feeble person among their tribes.
37And they sacrificed their sons, and their daughters to devils.
38Egypt was glad when they departed: for the fear of them fell upon them.
38And they shed innocent blood: the blood of their sons and of their daughters which they sacrificed to the idols of Chanaan. And the land was polluted with blood,
39He spread a cloud for a covering; and fire to give light in the night.
39And was defiled with their works: and they went aside after their own inventions.
40The people asked, and he brought quails, and satisfied them with the bread of heaven.
40And the Lord was exceedingly angry with his people: and he abhorred his inheritance.
41He opened the rock, and the waters gushed out; they ran in the dry places like a river.
41And he delivered them into the hands of the nations: and they that hated them had dominion over them.
42For he remembered his holy promise, and Abraham his servant.
42And their enemies afflicted them: and they were humbled under their hands:
43And he brought forth his people with joy, and his chosen with gladness:
43Many times did he deliver them. But they provoked him with their counsel: and they were brought low by their iniquities.
44And gave them the lands of the heathen: and they inherited the labour of the people;
44And he saw when they were in tribulation: and he heard their prayer.
45That they might observe his statutes, and keep his laws. Praise ye the Lord.
45And he was mindful of his covenant: and repented according to the multitude of his mercies.
46(not in this translation)
46And he gave them unto mercies, in the sight of all those that had made them captives.
