Praise to Yahweh for His Work on Behalf of Israel

make known his deeds among the peoples.
2  tell of all his wonderful works.
3  Let the heart of those who seek Yahweh rejoice.
4  seek his face continually.
5  his signs and the judgments of his mouth,
6  you descendants[fn] of Jacob, his chosen ones.
7 is Yahweh our God; his judgments are in all the earth.
8  the word that he commanded
for a thousand generations,
9  and by his oath swore to Isaac.
10  to Israel as an everlasting covenant,
11  as the allotment that is your[fn] inheritance.”
12 [fn]— a trifle—and were sojourners in it,
13 [fn] from one kingdom to another people,
14  and he rebuked kings on account of them,
15  nor harm my prophets.”
16  he broke every[fn] of bread.
17  Joseph was sold as a slave.
18 [fn] his feet in fetters.[fn] His neck[fn] went into irons.[fn]
19 the time his word came about, the word of Yahweh tested[fn] him.
20 The king sent and he freed him; the ruler of the peoples sent and let him loose.
21  and ruler of all his possessions,
22 [fn] his officials [fn] and teach his elders wisdom.
23 to Egypt, and Jacob was a sojourner in the land of Ham.
24 [fn] made his people very fruitful. He also made them[fn] stronger than their[fn] enemies.
25  to deal deceitfully against his servants.
26  together with Aaron whom he had chosen.
27  and portents in the land of Ham.
28 it dark, and they did not rebel against his words.
29  and it killed their fish.
30  even in the chambers of their kings.
31  and gnats throughout all their territory.[fn]
32 and the fire of lightning in their land.
33  and shattered the trees of their territory.
34  and young locusts without number.
35 the vegetation in their land, and they ate up the fruit of their ground.
36 the firstborn in their land, the first of all their virility.
37  and there was none among his tribes who stumbled.
38  because the fear of them[fn] had fallen upon them.
39  and fire to give light at night.
40 [fn] asked, and he brought quail, and satisfied them with the bread of heaven.
41 the rock and waters flowed; they coursed[fn] through the dry places like a river.
42 [fn] he remembered Abraham his servant.
43 so he brought out his people with joy, his chosen ones with rejoicing.
44 the lands of the nations, and they inherited the labor of the peoples,
45  and keep his laws.
Praise Yah.[fn]
