2. Sing to him; sing praises concerning him; tell of all his wonderful works.
3. Boast about his holy name. Let the heart of those who seek Yahweh rejoice.
4. Make supplication to Yahweh and his might; seek his face continually.
5. Remember his wonders that he has done, his signs and the judgments of his mouth,
6. O offspring of Abraham his servant, you descendants of Jacob, his chosen ones.
7. He is Yahweh our God; his judgments are in all the earth.
8. He remembers his covenant forever, the word that he commanded for a thousand generations,
9. that he made with Abraham, and by his oath swore to Isaac.
10. He then confirmed it to Jacob as a statute, to Israel as an everlasting covenant,
11. saying, “To you I will give the land of Canaan as the allotment that is your inheritance.”
12. When they were few in number— a trifle—and were sojourners in it,
13. and they wandered about among the nations, from one kingdom to another people,
14. he allowed no one to oppress them, and he rebuked kings on account of them,
15. “Do not touch my anointed ones, nor harm my prophets.”
16. Then he called for a famine upon the land; he broke every supply of bread.
17. He sent a man on ahead of them; Joseph was sold as a slave.
