Psalm 105
The LORD Can Be Trusted

¹Praise the LORD and pray in his name!

Tell everyone what he has done.

²Sing praises to the LORD! Tell about his miracles.

³Celebrate and worship his holy name with all your heart.

⁴Trust the LORD and his mighty power.

⁵Remember his miracles and all his wonders

and his fair decisions.

⁶You belong to the family of Abraham, his servant;

you are his chosen ones, the descendants of Jacob.

⁷The LORD is our God,

bringing justice everywhere on earth.

⁸He will never forget his agreement or his promises,

not in thousands of years.

^*9God made an eternal promise

¹⁰to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob,

¹¹

when he said, "I'll give you the land of Canaan."

¹²At the time there were only a few of us,

and we were homeless.

¹³We wandered from nation to nation,

from one country to another.

¹⁴God 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!"

¹⁶God kept crops from growing

until food was scarce everywhere in the land.

¹⁷But he had already sent Joseph,

sold as a slave into Egypt,

¹⁸

with chains of iron around his legs and neck.

¹⁹Joseph remained a slave

until his own words had come true,

and the LORD had finished testing him.

²⁰Then the king of Egypt set Joseph free

²¹

and put him in charge of everything he owned.

²²Joseph was in command of the officials,

and he taught the leaders how to use wisdom.
