Psalms 105
Easy-to-Read Version, 2006
- 1Give thanks to the LORD and call out to him! Tell the nations what he has done!
- 2Sing to him; sing praises to him. Tell about the amazing things he has done.
- 3Be proud of his holy name. You followers of the LORD, be happy!
- 4Depend on the LORD for strength. Always go to him for help.
- 5Remember the amazing things he has done. Remember his miracles and his fair decisions.
- 6You belong to the family of his servant Abraham. You are descendants of Jacob, the people God chose.
- 7The LORD is our God. He rules the whole world.
- 8He will remember his agreement forever. He will always keep the promises he made to his people.
- 9He will keep the agreement he made with Abraham and the promise he made to Isaac.
- 10He gave it as a law to Jacob. He gave it to Israel as an agreement that will last forever!
- 11He said, “I will give you the land of Canaan. It will be your very own.”
- 12At the time God said this, there were only a few of his people, and they were strangers there.
- 13They traveled around from nation to nation, from one kingdom to another.
- 14But the Lord did not let anyone mistreat them. He warned kings not to harm them.
- 15He said, “Don’t hurt my chosen people. Don’t harm my prophets.”
- He caused a famine in that country, and people did not have enough food.
