Psalm 104 📜 📕 ↷
How Many Are Your Works, O LORD!
1 ALLELUIA. Confess ye to our Lord, and invocate his name: shew forth his works among the Gentiles.📜💬📚
2 Chant to him, and sing to him: tell ye all his marvelous works.📜💬📚
3 Praise ye him in his holy name: let the heart of them rejoice that seek our Lord.📜💬📚
4 Seek ye our Lord, and be confirmed: seek his face always.📜💬📚
5 Remember ye his marvelous works, which he hath done: his wonders, and the judgments of his mouth.📜💬📚
6 The seed of Abraham his servants: the children of Jacob his elect.📜💬📚
7 He is the Lord our God: in all the earth are his judgments.📜💬📚
8 He hath been mindful for ever of his testament; of the word which he commanded unto a thousand generations.📜💬📚
9 Which he disposed to Abraham: and of his oath to Isaac.📜💬📚
10 And he appointed it to Jacob for a precept: and to Israel for an eternal testament,📜💬📚
11 saying: To thee will I give the land of Chanaan, the cord of your inheritance.📜💬📚
12 When they were of small number, very few and sojourners thereof:📜💬📚
13 And they passed from nation into nation, & from Kingdom to an other people.📜💬📚
14 He left not a man to hurt them: and he rebuked kings for their sake:📜💬📚
15 Touch not my anointed, and toward my Prophets be not malignant.📜💬📚
16 And he called a famine upon the land: and he destroyed all the strength of bread.📜💬📚
17 He sent a man before them: Joseph was sold to be a servant.📜💬📚
18 They humbled his feet in fetters, iron passed through his soul,📜💬📚
19 until his word came. The word of our Lord inflamed him:📜💬📚
20 the king sent, and loosed him; the Prince of the people, and released him.📜💬📚
21 He appointed him lord of his house: and Prince of all his possession.📜💬📚
22 That he might instruct his Princes as himself: and might teach his ancients wisdom.📜💬📚
23 And Israel entered into AEgypt, and Jacob was a sojourner in the land of Cham.📜💬📚
24 And he increased his people exceedingly: and strengthened them over their enemies.📜💬📚
25 He turned their heart that they hated his people: and to work guile toward his servants.📜💬📚
26 He sent Moyses his servant: Aaron himself whom he chose.📜💬📚
27 He did put in them the words of his signs, and of his wonders in the Land of Cham.📜💬📚
28 He sent darkness, and obscured: and did not exasperate his words.📜💬📚
29 He turned their waters into blood: and killed their fishes.📜💬📚
30 Their land brought forth frogs in the inner chambers of their kings.📜💬📚
31 He said, and the caenomyia came: and the sciniphs in all their coasts.📜💬📚
32 He made their rains hail: fire burning in their land.📜💬📚
33 And he struck their vines, and their fig-trees: and he destroyed the wood of their coasts.📜💬📚
34 He said, & the locust came, & the bruchus whereof there was no number.📜💬📚
35 And it did eat all the grass in their land: and it did eat all the fruit of their land.📜💬📚
36 And he struck every first begotten in their land: the first fruits of all their labour.📜💬📚
37 And he brought them forth with gold and silver, and there was not in their tribes a feeble person.📜💬📚
38 AEgypt was glad at their departure: because the fear of them lay upon them.📜💬📚
39 He spread a cloud for their protection, and fire to shine unto them by night.📜💬📚
40 They made petition, and the quail came: and he filled them with the bread of heaven.📜💬📚
41 He divided the rock, and waters flowed: rivers ran in the dry ground.📜💬📚
42 Because he was mindful of his holy word, which he had uttered to Abraham his servant.📜💬📚
43 And he brought forth his people in exultation, and his elect in joy.📜💬📚
44 And he gave them the countries of the Nations: and they possessed the labours of peoples:📜💬📚
45 That they might keep his justifications, and seek after his law.📜💬📚
