1 Give thanks to the LORD, call upon his name; among the peoples make his deeds known.
2 Sing to him, make music to him; speak of all his wonders.
3 Make your boast in his holy name; let the heart of those who seek the LORD be glad.
4 Seek the LORD and his strength; seek his face always.
5 Remember the wonders he has done, his marvels and the judgments from his mouth,
6 you offspring of Abraham his servant, you sons of Jacob, his chosen ones!
7 He is the LORD our God; his judgments are over all the earth.
8 He is mindful of his covenant forever, of the word he ordained for a thousand generations,
9 the covenant he made with Abraham, his sworn oath to Isaac,
10 which he established for Jacob as a decree, for Israel as a covenant for all time,
11 saying, "To you I will give the land of Canaan, the share of your inheritance,"
12 when they were but a handful of men, very few, and strangers in it,
13 going about from nation to nation, from one kingdom to another people.
14 He let no one oppress them, and he rebuked kings on their account:
15 "Do not touch my anointed ones; do no harm to my prophets."
16 He summoned a famine upon the land and broke every staff of bread.
17 He sent a man before them—Joseph, sold as a slave.
18 They hurt his feet with shackles; his soul came into iron,
19 until the time his word came true; the word of the LORD refined him.
20 The king sent and set him loose; the ruler of peoples let him go free.
21 He made him master of his household and ruler over all he owned,
22 to bind his officials as he pleased and to make his elders wise.
23 So Israel came to Egypt; Jacob lived as a sojourner in the land of Ham.
24 And he made his people exceedingly fruitful and made them mightier than their foes.
25 He turned their hearts to hate his people, to act with cunning against his servants.
26 He sent his servant Moses, and Aaron whom he had chosen.
27 They performed his signs among them, and wonders in the land of Ham.
28 He sent darkness and it grew dark, and they did not defy his word.
29 He changed their waters into blood and killed their fish.
30 Their land teemed with frogs, even in the rooms of their kings.
31 He spoke, and swarms of flies came, gnats in all their borders.
32 He gave them hail in place of rain, flaming fire in their land.
33 He struck their vines and their fig trees and broke the trees throughout their borders.
34 He spoke, and locusts came, and grasshoppers beyond counting,
35 and they ate up every plant in their land and ate the fruit of their soil.
36 He struck every firstborn in their land, the first of all their strength.
37 Then he led them out with silver and gold, and not one among his tribes stumbled.
38 Egypt rejoiced when they left, for fear of them had fallen on it.
39 He spread out a cloud as a screen, and fire to light up the night.
40 They asked, and he brought quail and filled them with bread from heaven.
41 He opened the rock, and water poured out; it ran in the dry land like a river.
42 For he remembered his holy word and his servant Abraham.
43 And he led out his people with rejoicing, his chosen ones with shouts of joy.
44 He gave them the lands of the nations, and they inherited what the peoples had labored for,
45 so that they would keep his decrees and observe his laws. Hallelujah!
