¹ O give thanks to Jehovah; call on His name; make His deeds known among the peoples.² Sing to Him; sing praises to Him; tell of all His wonders.³ Glory in His holy name; let the heart of those who seek Jehovah rejoice.⁴ Seek Jehovah and His strength; seek His face without ceasing.⁵ Remember His wonders that He has done, His miracles, and the judgments of His mouth,⁶ O seed of His servant Abraham; O sons of Jacob, His elect.⁷ He is Jehovah our God; His judgments are in all the earth;

⁸ He has remembered His covenant forever; the Word He commanded to a thousand generations;⁹ which He cut with Abraham, and His oath to Isaac;¹⁰ and He established it to Jacob for a statute, to Israel for a perpetual covenant;¹¹ saying, To you I will give the land of Canaan, the portion of your inheritance;¹² when they were a few men of number; very few, and aliens in it.¹³ And they went about from nation to nation; from one kingdom to another people.¹⁴ He allowed no man to oppress them; yea, He reproved kings for their sakes;¹⁵ saying , Touch not My anointed; and, Do My prophets no harm.¹⁶ And He called a famine on the land; He broke the whole staff of bread.¹⁷ He sent a man before them, Joseph, being sold for a slave;¹⁸ they hurt his feet with chains; his soul came into iron;¹⁹ until the time His Word came, the Word of Jehovah refined him;²⁰ the king, the ruler of peoples, sent and shook off his links and set him free;²¹ he made him lord of his house, and ruler over all he owned;²² to bind his leaders at his will, and to teach his elders wisdom.²³ Israel also came into Egypt, and Jacob sojourned in the land of Ham.²⁴ And He increased His people greatly and made them stronger than their enemies.

²⁵ He turned their heart to hate His people, to deal craftily with His servants.²⁶ He sent His servant Moses and Aaron whom He had chosen.²⁷ They put things of His signs among them; yea, wonders in the land of Ham.²⁸ He sent darkness and made it dark; and they did not rebel against His Word.²⁹ He turned their waters into blood and killed their fish.³⁰ Their land swarmed with frogs in the rooms of their kings.³¹ He spoke, and fly swarms came; gnats in all their borders.³² He gave hail for their rain, flaming fire in their land.³³ He struck their vines also, and their fig trees; and He broke the trees of their borders.³⁴ He spoke, and locusts came; and larvae without number;³⁵ and they ate up all the plants in the land; yea, ate the fruit of their ground.³⁶ He also struck all the first-born in their land, the firstfruit of all their vigor.³⁷ And He led them out with silver and gold; and among their tribes, not one was stumbling.³⁸ Egypt was glad when they went out, for their dread had fallen on them.³⁹ He spread a cloud for a covering; and fire to give light in the night.⁴⁰ He asked, and He brought quail; and satisfied them with the food from the heavens.⁴¹ He opened the rock, and waters gushed out; they went in the dry places like a river.⁴² For He remembered His holy Word and His servant Abraham;⁴³ and He brought His people out with joy; His elect with gladness.⁴⁴ And He gave to them the lands of the nations; and they inherited the labor of the peoples;⁴⁵ so that they might observe His statutes and keep His laws. Praise Jehovah!
