[3]Glary ye in his holy name: let the heart of them reioyce that do seeke God
[4]Seeke God and his strength: seeke his face euermore
[5]Remember the meruaylous workes that he hath done: his wonders, and the iudgementes of his mouth
[6](105:6a) O ye seede of Abraham his seruaunt, ye his chosen chyldren of Iacob
[7](105:6b) he is God our Lord, his iudgementes are in all the earth
[8](105:7a) He hath ben mindfull alwayes of his couenaunt (for he promised a worde to a thousande generations:
[9](105:7b) euen of his couenaunt that he made with Abraham, and of his othe vnto Isaac
[10](105:8) And he appointed the same vnto Iacob for a law: and to Israel for an euerlasting couenaunt
[11](105:9) Saying, vnto thee I wyll geue the lande of Chanaan: the lot of your inheritaunce
[12](105:10a) When they were a fewe men in number, and had ben straungers but a litle whyle in it
[13](105:10b) and when they went from one nation to another, from one kingdome to another people
[14](105:11) He suffred no man to do them wrong: yea he reproued euen kynges for their sakes
[15](105:12) Touche not mine annoynted: and triumph not ouer my prophetes
[16](105:13) Moreouer he called for a famine vpon the lande: and he made all maner of foode to fayle
[17](105:14) But he had sent a man before them: euen Ioseph, who was solde to be a bonde seruaunt
[18](105:15) Whose feete they dyd hurt in the stockes: the iron entred into his soule
[19](105:16) Vntill the tyme came that his cause [was knowen:] the worde of the Lorde tryed hym
[20](105:17) The king sent and caused hym to be let go: yea the prince of the people opened a way foorth for hym
[21](105:18) He made him Lorde of his house: and ruler of all his substaunce
[22](105:19) That he might enfourme his princes according to his minde: and teache his senatours wysdome
[23](105:20) Israel also came into Egypt: & Iacob was a straunger in the lande of Cham
[24](105:21) And he encreased his people exceedinglye: and made them stronger then their enemies
[25](105:22) Whose heart so turned that they hated his people: and dealt subtilly with his seruauntes
[26](105:23a) [Then] he sent Moyses his seruaunt, and Aaron whom he had chosen
[27](105:23b) they did their message, workyng his signes among them, and wonders in the lande of Cham
[28](105:24) He sent darknes, & it was darke: and they went not from his wordes
[29](105:25) He turned their waters into blood: and slue their fishe
[30](105:26) Their lande brought foorth frogges: yea euen in their kinges chaumbers
[31](105:27) He spake the worde, and there came a swarme of all maner of flyes: [and] of lyce in all their quarters
[32](105:28) He gaue them haylestones for rayne: [and] flambes of fire in their lande
[33](105:29) He smote their vines also & figge trees: and he destroyed the trees that were in their coastes
[34](105:30) He spake the worde, and the grashoppers came: & caterpillers innumerable
[35](105:31) And they did eate vp all the grasse in their lande: and deuoured the fruite of their grounde
[36](105:32) He smote al the first borne in their land: euen the first fruites of all their concupiscence
[37](105:33) He also brought them foorth with siluer and golde: there was not one feeble person in their tribes
[38](105:34) Egypt was glad at their departing: for they were smytten with dread of them
[39](105:35) He spred out a cloude to be a couering: and fire to geue light in the night season
[40](105:36) The [people] required and he brought quayles: and he filled them with the bread of heauen
[41](105:37) He opened the rocke of stone and the waters flowed out: so that streames ranne in drye places
[42](105:38) For he remembred his holy worde: [spoken] vnto Abraham his seruaunt
[43](105:39) And he brought foorth his people with gladnes: [and] his chosen with a ioyfull noyse
[44](105:40) And he gaue them the landes of the Heathen, and they toke to inheritaunce the labours of the people
[45](105:41) To the intent that they shoulde kepe his statutes: and obserue his lawes. Prayse ye the Lorde
