Psalms 105:1-15
1Give thanks to YHWH; call on his name; make known among the peoples his deeds. 2Sing to him, sing psalms to him; speak of all his wonders. 3Glory in his holy name; let the heart of those who seek YHWH be glad. 4Seek YHWH and his strength; seek his face continually. 5Remember his wonders that he has done, his portents and the judgments of his mouth, 6offspring of Abraham his servant, sons of Jacob, his chosen ones. 7He is YHWH our Elohim; in all the earth are his judgments. 8He has remembered forever his covenant, the word he commanded for a thousand generations, 9which he made with Abraham, and his oath to Isaac; 10and he established it for Jacob as a statute, for Israel as an eternal covenant, 11saying, “To you I will give the land of Canaan, the allotment of your inheritance,” 12when they were few in number, very few, and resident aliens in it. 13And they went about from nation to nation, from a kingdom to another people. 14He did not allow anyone to oppress them, and he rebuked kings on their account: 15“Do not touch my anointed ones, and to my prophets do no harm.”
