Psalms 105:8-17 Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB)

8. He remembers His covenant forever,the promise He ordainedfor a thousand generations —

9. the covenant He made with Abraham,swore to Isaac,

10. and confirmed to Jacob as a decreeand to Israel as an everlasting covenant:

11. “I will give the land of Canaan to youas your inherited portion.”

12. When they were few in number,very few indeed,and temporary residents in Canaan,

13. wandering from nation to nationand from one kingdom to another,

14. He allowed no one to oppress them;He rebuked kings on their behalf:

15. “Do not touch My anointed ones, or harm My prophets.”

16. He called down famine against the landand destroyed the entire food supply.

17. He had sent a man ahead of them —Joseph, who was sold as a slave.
