詩篇 105
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Traditional)
上帝和祂的子民(A)
105 你們要稱謝耶和華，呼求祂的名，
在列邦傳揚祂的作為。
2 要歌頌、讚美祂，
述說祂一切奇妙的作為。
3 要以祂的聖名為榮，
願尋求耶和華的人都歡欣。
4 要尋求耶和華和祂的能力，
時常來到祂面前。
5-6 祂僕人亞伯拉罕的後裔，
祂所揀選的雅各的子孫啊，
要記住祂所行的神蹟奇事和祂口中的判詞。
7 祂是我們的上帝耶和華，
祂在普天下施行審判。
8 祂永遠記得祂的約，
歷經千代也不忘祂的應許，
9 就是祂與亞伯拉罕所立的約，
向以撒所起的誓。
10 祂把這約定為律例賜給雅各，
定為永遠的約賜給以色列。
11 祂說：「我必把迦南賜給你，
作為你的產業。」
12 那時他們人丁稀少，
在當地寄居。
13 他們在異國他鄉流離飄零。
14 耶和華不容人壓迫他們，
還為他們的緣故責備君王，
15 說：「不可難為我膏立的人，
也不可傷害我的先知。」
16 祂在那裡降下饑荒，
斷絕一切食物的供應。
17 祂派一個人率先前往，
這人就是被賣為奴隸的約瑟。
18 他被戴上腳鐐，套上枷鎖，
19 直到後來他的預言應驗，
耶和華的話試煉了他。
20 埃及王下令釋放他，
百姓的首領給他自由，
21 派他執掌朝政，
管理國中的一切，
22 有權柄管束王的大臣，
將智慧傳授王的長老。
23 以色列來到埃及，
寄居在含地。
24 耶和華使祂的子民生養眾多，
比他們的仇敵還要強盛。
25 祂使仇敵憎恨他們，
用詭計虐待他們。
26 祂派遣祂的僕人摩西和祂揀選的亞倫，
27 在埃及行神蹟，
在含地行奇事。
28 祂降下黑暗，使黑暗籠罩那裡；
他們沒有違背祂的話。
29 祂使埃及的水變成血，
魚都死去；
30 又使國中到處是青蛙，
王宮禁院也不能倖免。
31 祂一發命令，
蒼蠅蜂擁而至，蝨子遍滿全境。
32 祂使雨變成冰雹，
遍地電光閃閃。
33 祂擊倒他們的葡萄樹和無花果樹，
摧毀他們境內的樹木。
34 祂一發聲，
就飛來無數蝗蟲和螞蚱，
35 吃盡他們土地上的植物，
吃盡他們田間的出產。
36 祂又擊殺他們境內所有的長子，
就是他們年輕力壯時生的長子。
37 祂帶領以色列人攜金帶銀地離開埃及，
各支派中無人畏縮。
38 埃及人懼怕他們，
樂見他們離去。
39 祂鋪展雲彩為他們遮蔭，
晚上用火給他們照明。
40 他們祈求，
祂就賜下鵪鶉，降下天糧，
叫他們飽足。
41 祂使磐石裂開、湧出水來，
在乾旱之地奔流成河。
42 因為祂沒有忘記祂賜給僕人亞伯拉罕的神聖應許。
43 祂帶領自己的子民歡然離去，
祂所揀選的百姓歡唱著前行。
44 祂把列國的土地賜給他們，
使他們獲得別人的勞動成果。
45 祂這樣做是要使他們持守祂的命令，
遵行祂的律法。
你們要讚美耶和華！
Psalm 105
Contemporary English Version
The Lord Can Be Trusted
1 (A) Praise the Lord
and pray in his name!
Tell everyone
what he has done.
2 Sing praises to the Lord!
Tell about his miracles.
3 Celebrate and worship
his holy name
with all your heart.
4 Trust the Lord
and his mighty power.
5 Remember his miracles
and all his wonders
and his fair decisions.
6 You belong to the family
of Abraham, his servant;
you are his chosen ones,
the descendants of Jacob.
7 The Lord is our God,
bringing justice
everywhere on earth.
8 He will never forget
his agreement or his promises,
not in thousands of years.
* 9 (B) God made an eternal promise
10 (C) to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob,
11 when he said, “I'll give you
the land of Canaan.”
12 At the time there were
only a few of us,
and we were homeless.
13 We wandered from nation
to nation, from one country
to another.
14 (D) God did not let anyone
mistreat our people.
Instead he protected us
by punishing rulers
15 and telling them,
“Don't touch my chosen leaders
or harm my prophets!”
16 (E) God kept crops from growing
until food was scarce
everywhere in the land.
17 (F) But he had already sent Joseph,
sold as a slave into Egypt,
18 (G) with chains of iron
around his legs and neck.
19 Joseph remained a slave
until his own words
had come true,
and the Lord had finished
testing him.
20 (H) Then the king of Egypt
set Joseph free
21 (I) and put him in charge
of everything he owned.
22 Joseph was in command
of the officials,
and he taught the leaders
how to use wisdom.
23 (J) Jacob and his family
came and settled in Egypt
as foreigners.
24 (K) They were the Lord's people,
so he let them grow stronger
than their enemies.
25 They served the Lord,
and he made the Egyptians plan
hateful things against them.
26 (L) God sent his servant Moses.
He also chose and sent Aaron
27 to his people in Egypt,
and they worked miracles
and wonders there.
28 (M) Moses and Aaron obeyed God,
and he sent darkness
to cover Egypt.
29 (N) God turned their rivers
into streams of blood,
and the fish all died.
30 (O) Frogs were everywhere,
even in the royal palace.
31 (P) When God gave the command,
flies and gnats
swarmed all around.
32 (Q) In place of rain,
God sent hailstones
and flashes of lightning.
33 He destroyed their grapevines
and their fig trees,
and he made splinters
of all the other trees.
34 (R) God gave the command,
and more grasshoppers came
than could be counted.
35 They ate every green plant
and all the crops that grew
in the land of Egypt.
36 (S) Then God took the life
of every first-born son.
37 (T) When God led Israel from Egypt,
they took silver and gold,
and no one was left behind.
38 The Egyptians were afraid
and gladly let them go.
39 (U) God hid them under a cloud
and guided them by fire
during the night.
40 (V) When they asked for food,
he sent more birds
than they could eat.
41 (W) God even split open a rock,
and streams of water
gushed into the desert.
42 God never forgot
his sacred promise
to his servant Abraham.
43 When the Lord rescued
his chosen people from Egypt,
they celebrated with songs.
44 (X) The Lord gave them the land
and everything else
the nations had worked for.
45 He did this so that his people
would obey all his laws.
Shout praises to the Lord!
Psalm 105
New King James Version
The Eternal Faithfulness of the Lord(A)
105 Oh, (B)give thanks to the Lord!
Call upon His name;
(C)Make known His deeds among the peoples!
2 Sing to Him, sing psalms to Him;
(D)Talk of all His wondrous works!
3 Glory in His holy name;
Let the hearts of those rejoice who seek the Lord!
4 Seek the Lord and His strength;
(E)Seek His face evermore!
5 (F)Remember His marvelous works which He has done,
His wonders, and the judgments of His mouth,
6 O seed of Abraham His servant,
You children of Jacob, His chosen ones!
7 He is the Lord our God;
(G)His judgments are in all the earth.
8 He (H)remembers His covenant forever,
The word which He commanded, for a thousand generations,
9 (I)The covenant which He made with Abraham,
And His oath to Isaac,
10 And confirmed it to Jacob for a statute,
To Israel as an everlasting covenant,
11 Saying, (J)“To you I will give the land of Canaan
As the allotment of your inheritance,”
12 (K)When they were few in number,
Indeed very few, (L)and strangers in it.
13 When they went from one nation to another,
From one kingdom to another people,
14 (M)He permitted no one to do them wrong;
Yes, (N)He rebuked kings for their sakes,
15 Saying, “Do not touch My anointed ones,
And do My prophets no harm.”
16 Moreover (O)He called for a famine in the land;
He destroyed all the (P)provision of bread.
17 (Q)He sent a man before them—
Joseph—who (R)was sold as a slave.
18 (S)They hurt his feet with fetters,
[a]He was laid in irons.
19 Until the time that his word came to pass,
(T)The word of the Lord tested him.
20 (U)The king sent and released him,
The ruler of the people let him go free.
21 (V)He made him lord of his house,
And ruler of all his possessions,
22 To [b]bind his princes at his pleasure,
And teach his elders wisdom.
23 (W)Israel also came into Egypt,
And Jacob dwelt (X)in the land of Ham.
24 (Y)He increased His people greatly,
And made them stronger than their enemies.
25 (Z)He turned their heart to hate His people,
To deal craftily with His servants.
26 (AA)He sent Moses His servant,
And Aaron whom He had chosen.
27 They (AB)performed His signs among them,
And wonders in the land of Ham.
28 He sent darkness, and made it dark;
And they did not rebel against His word.
29 (AC)He turned their waters into blood,
And killed their fish.
30 (AD)Their land abounded with frogs,
Even in the chambers of their kings.
31 (AE)He spoke, and there came swarms of flies,
And lice in all their territory.
32 (AF)He gave them hail for rain,
And flaming fire in their land.
33 (AG)He struck their vines also, and their fig trees,
And splintered the trees of their territory.
34 (AH)He spoke, and locusts came,
Young locusts without number,
35 And ate up all the vegetation in their land,
And devoured the fruit of their ground.
36 (AI)He also [c]destroyed all the firstborn in their land,
(AJ)The first of all their strength.
37 (AK)He also brought them out with silver and gold,
And there was none feeble among His tribes.
38 (AL)Egypt was glad when they departed,
For the fear of them had fallen upon them.
39 (AM)He spread a cloud for a covering,
And fire to give light in the night.
40 (AN)The people asked, and He brought quail,
And (AO)satisfied them with the bread of heaven.
41 (AP)He opened the rock, and water gushed out;
It ran in the dry places like a river.
42 For He remembered (AQ)His holy promise,
And Abraham His servant.
43 He brought out His people with joy,
His chosen ones with [d]gladness.
44 (AR)He gave them the lands of the [e]Gentiles,
And they inherited the labor of the nations,
45 (AS)That they might observe His statutes
And keep His laws.
[f]Praise the Lord!
