v1

Alleluia. Give glory to the Lord, and call upon his name: declare his deeds among the Gentiles.

v2

Sing to him, yea sing praises to him: relate all his wondrous works.

v3

Glory ye in his holy name: let the heart of them rejoice that seek the Lord.

v4

Seek ye the Lord, and be strengthened: seek his face evermore.

v5

Remember his marvellous works which he hath done; his wonders, and the judgments of his mouth.

v6

O ye seed of Abraham his servant; ye sons of Jacob his chosen.

v7

He is the Lord our God: his judgments are in all the earth.

v8

He hath remembered his covenant for ever: the word which he commanded to a thousand generations.

v9

Which he made to Abraham; and his oath to Isaac:

v10

And he appointed the same to Jacob for a law, and to Israel for an everlasting testament:

v11

Saying: To thee will I give the land of Chanaan, the lot of your inheritance.

v12

When they were but a small number: yea very few, and sojourners therein:

v13

And they passed from nation to nation, and from one kingdom to another people.

v14

He suffered no man to hurt them: and he reproved kings for their sakes.

v15

Touch ye not my anointed: and do no evil to my prophets.

v16

And he called a famine upon the land: and he broke in pieces all the support of bread.

v17

He sent a man before them: Joseph, who was sold for a slave.

v18

They humbled his feet in fetters: the iron pierced his soul,

v19

Until his word came. The word of the Lord inflamed him.

v20

The king sent, and he released him: the ruler of the people, and he set him at liberty.

v21

He made him master of his house, and ruler of all his possession.

v22

That he might instruct his princes as himself, and teach his ancients wisdom.

v23

And Israel went into Egypt: and Jacob was a sojourner in the land of Cham.

v24

And he increased his people exceedingly: and strengthened them over their enemies,

v25

He turned their heart to hate his people: and to deal deceitfully with his servants.

v26

He sent Moses his servant: Aaron the man whom he had chosen.

v27

He gave them power to shew his signs, and his wonders in the land of Cham.

v28

He sent darkness, and made it obscure: and grieved not his words.

v29

He turned their waters into blood, and destroyed their fish.

v30

Their land brought forth frogs, in the inner chambers of their kings.

v31

He spoke, and there came divers sorts of flies and sciniphs in all their coasts.

v32

He gave them hail for rain, a burning fire in the land.

v33

And he destroyed their vineyards and their fig trees: and he broke in pieces the trees of their coasts.

v34

He spoke, and the locust came, and the bruchus, of which there was no number.

v35

And they devoured all the grass in their land, and consumed all the fruit of their ground.

v36

And he slew all the firstborn in their land: the firstfruits of all their labour.

v37

And he brought them out with silver and gold: and there was not among their tribes one that was feeble.

v38

Egypt was glad when they departed: for the fear of them lay upon them.

v39

He spread a cloud for their protection, and fire to give them light in the night.

v40

They asked, and the quail came: and he filled them with the bread of heaven.

v41

He opened the rock, and waters flowed: rivers ran down in the dry land.

v42

Because he remembered his holy word, which he had spoken to his servant Abraham.

v43

And he brought forth his people with joy, and his chosen with gladness.

v44

And he gave them the lands of the Gentiles: and they possessed the labours of the people:

v45

That they might observe his justifications, and seek after his law.
