Psalms 105:1-15

11Give thanks to the Lord! Call on his name! Make known his accomplishments among the nations!

2Sing to him! Make music to him! Tell about all his miraculous deeds!

3Boast about his holy name! Let the hearts of those who seek the Lord rejoice!

4Seek the Lord and the strength he gives! Seek his presence continually!

5Recall the miraculous deeds he performed, his mighty acts and the judgments he decreed,

6O children of Abraham, God’s servant, you descendants of Jacob, God’s chosen ones!

7He is the Lord our God; he carries out judgment throughout the earth.

8He always remembers his covenantal decree, the promise he made to a thousand generations –

9the promise he made to Abraham, the promise he made by oath to Isaac!

10He gave it to Jacob as a decree, to Israel as a lasting promise,

11saying, “To you I will give the land of Canaan as the portion of your inheritance.”

12When they were few in number, just a very few, and resident aliens within it,

13they wandered from nation to nation, and from one kingdom to another.

14He let no one oppress them; he disciplined kings for their sake,

15saying,“Don’t touch my chosen ones! Don’t harm my prophets!”
