Psalm 105.1–6, 37–45
1 O give thanks to the Lord and call upon his name:
tell among the peoples what things he has done.
2 Sing to him, O sing praises:
and be telling of all his marvellous works.
3 Exult in his holy name:
and let those that seek the Lord be joyful in heart.
4 Seek the Lord and his strength:
O seek his face continually.
5 Call to mind what wonders he has done:
his marvellous acts, and the judgements of his mouth,
6 O seed of Abraham his servant:
O children of Jacob his chosen one.
37 He brought Israel out with silver and with gold:
and not one among their tribes was seen to stumble.
38 Egypt was glad at their going:
for dread of Israel had fallen upon them.
39 He spread out a cloud for a covering:
and fire to lighten the night.
40 The people asked, and he brought them quails:
and satisfied them with the bread from heaven.
41 He opened a rock, so that the waters gushed:
and ran in the parched land like a river.
42 For he had remembered his holy word:
that he gave to Abraham his servant.
43 So he led out his people with rejoicing:
his chosen ones with shouts of joy;
44 He gave them the land of the nations:
and they took possession of the fruit
for which other peoples had toiled,
45 So that they might keep his statutes:
and faithfully obey his laws. O praise the Lord.
