Psalm 105 :: Bible in Basic English (BBE)

Psa 105:1

Psa 105:1O give praise to the Lord; give honour to his name, talking of his doings among the peoples.

Psa 105:2

Psa 105:2Let your voice be sounding in songs and melody; let all your thoughts be of the wonder of his works.

Psa 105:3

Psa 105:3Have glory in his holy name; let the hearts of those who are searching after the Lord be glad.

Psa 105:4

Psa 105:4Let your search be for the Lord and for his strength; let your hearts ever be turned to him.

Psa 105:5

Psa 105:5Keep in mind the great works which he has done; his wonders, and the decisions of his mouth;

Psa 105:6

Psa 105:6O you seed of Abraham, his servant, you children of Jacob, his loved ones.

Psa 105:7

Psa 105:7He is the Lord our God: he is judge of all the earth.

Psa 105:8

Psa 105:8He has kept his agreement in mind for ever, the word which he gave for a thousand generations;

Psa 105:9

Psa 105:9The agreement which he made with Abraham, and his oath to Isaac;

Psa 105:10

Psa 105:10And he gave it to Jacob for a law, and to Israel for an eternal agreement;

Psa 105:11

Psa 105:11Saying, To you will I give the land of Canaan, the measured line of your heritage:

Psa 105:12

Psa 105:12When they were still small in number, and strange in the land;

Psa 105:13

Psa 105:13When they went about from one nation to another, and from one kingdom to another people.

Psa 105:14

Psa 105:14He would not let anyone do them wrong; he even kept back kings because of them,

Psa 105:15

Psa 105:15Saying, Put not your hand on those who have been marked with my holy oil, and do my prophets no wrong.

Psa 105:16

Psa 105:16And he took away all food from the land, so that the people were without bread.

Psa 105:17

Psa 105:17He sent a man before them, even Joseph, who was given as a servant for a price:

Psa 105:18

Psa 105:18His feet were fixed in chains; his neck was put in iron bands;

Psa 105:19

Psa 105:19Till the time when his word came true; he was tested by the word of the Lord.

Psa 105:20

Psa 105:20The king sent men to take off his chains; even the ruler of the people, who let him go free.

Psa 105:21

Psa 105:21He made him lord of his house, and ruler over everything he had;

Psa 105:22

Psa 105:22To give his chiefs teaching at his pleasure, and so that his law-givers might get wisdom from him.

Psa 105:23

Psa 105:23Then Israel came into Egypt, and Jacob was living in the land of Ham.

Psa 105:24

Psa 105:24And his people were greatly increased, and became stronger than those who were against them.

Psa 105:25

Psa 105:25Their hearts were turned to hate against his people, so that they made secret designs against them.

Psa 105:26

Psa 105:26He sent Moses, his servant, and Aaron, the man of his selection.

Psa 105:27

Psa 105:27He let his signs be seen among the people, and his wonders in the land of Ham.

Psa 105:28

Psa 105:28He sent black night and made it dark; and they did not go against his word.

Psa 105:29

Psa 105:29At his word their waters were turned to blood, and he sent death on all their fish.

Psa 105:30

Psa 105:30Their land was full of frogs, even in the rooms of the king.

Psa 105:31

Psa 105:31He gave the word, and there came the dog-fly, and insects over all the land.

Psa 105:32

Psa 105:32He gave them ice for rain, and flaming fire in their land.

Psa 105:33

Psa 105:33He gave their vines and their fig-trees to destruction, and the trees of their land were broken down.

Psa 105:34

Psa 105:34At his word the locusts came, and young locusts more than might be numbered,

Psa 105:35

Psa 105:35And put an end to all the plants of their land, taking all the fruit of the earth for food.

Psa 105:36

Psa 105:36He put to death the first child of every family in the land, the first-fruits of their strength.

Psa 105:37

Psa 105:37He took his people out with silver and gold: there was not one feeble person among them.

Psa 105:38

Psa 105:38Egypt was glad when they went; for the fear of them had come down on them.

Psa 105:39

Psa 105:39A cloud was stretched over them for a cover; and he sent fire to give light in the night.

Psa 105:40

Psa 105:40At the people's request he sent birds, and gave them the bread of heaven for food.

Psa 105:41

Psa 105:41His hand made the rock open, and the waters came streaming out; they went down through the dry places like a river.

Psa 105:42

Psa 105:42For he kept in mind his holy word, and Abraham, his servant.

Psa 105:43

Psa 105:43And he took his people out with joy, the men of his selection with glad cries:

Psa 105:44

Psa 105:44And gave them the lands of the nations; and they took the work of the peoples for a heritage;

Psa 105:45

Psa 105:45So that they might keep his orders, and be true to his laws. Give praise to the Lord.
