1 (104:1) Славьте Господа; призывайте имя Его; возвещайте в народах дела Его;
2 (104:2) воспойте Ему и пойте Ему; поведайте о всех чудесах Его.
3 (104:3) Хвалитесь именем Его святым; да веселится сердце ищущих Господа.
4 (104:4) Ищите Господа и силы Его, ищите лица Его всегда.
5 (104:5) Воспоминайте чудеса Его, которые сотворил, знамения Его и суды уст Его,
6 (104:6) вы, семя Авраамово, рабы Его, сыны Иакова, избранные Его.
7 (104:7) Он Господь Бог наш: по всей земле суды Его.
8 (104:8) Вечно помнит завет Свой, слово, [которое] заповедал в тысячу родов,
9 (104:9) которое завещал Аврааму, и клятву Свою Исааку,
10 (104:10) и поставил то Иакову в закон и Израилю в завет вечный,
11 (104:11) говоря: "тебе дам землю Ханаанскую в удел наследия вашего".
12 (104:12) Когда их было еще мало числом, очень мало, и они были пришельцами в ней
13 (104:13) и переходили от народа к народу, из царства к иному племени,
14 (104:14) никому не позволял обижать их и возбранял о них царям:
15 (104:15) "не прикасайтесь к помазанным Моим, и пророкам Моим не делайте зла".
16 (104:16) И призвал голод на землю; всякий стебель хлебный истребил.
17 (104:17) Послал пред ними человека: в рабы продан был Иосиф.
18 (104:18) Стеснили оковами ноги его; в железо вошла душа его,
19 (104:19) доколе исполнилось слово Его: слово Господне испытало его.
20 (104:20) Послал царь, и разрешил его владетель народов и освободил его;
21 (104:21) поставил его господином над домом своим и правителем над всем владением своим,
22 (104:22) чтобы он наставлял вельмож его по своей душе и старейшин его учил мудрости.
23 (104:23) Тогда пришел Израиль в Египет, и переселился Иаков в землю Хамову.
24 (104:24) И весьма размножил [Бог] народ Свой и сделал его сильнее врагов его.
25 (104:25) Возбудил в сердце их ненависть против народа Его и ухищрение против рабов Его.
26 (104:26) Послал Моисея, раба Своего, Аарона, которого избрал.
27 (104:27) Они показали между ними слова знамений Его и чудеса [Его] в земле Хамовой.
28 (104:28) Послал тьму и сделал мрак, и не воспротивились слову Его.
29 (104:29) Преложил воду их в кровь, и уморил рыбу их.
30 (104:30) Земля их произвела множество жаб [даже] в спальне царей их.
31 (104:31) Он сказал, и пришли разные насекомые, скнипы во все пределы их.
32 (104:32) Вместо дождя послал на них град, палящий огонь на землю их,
33 (104:33) и побил виноград их и смоковницы их, и сокрушил дерева в пределах их.
34 (104:34) Сказал, и пришла саранча и гусеницы без числа;
35 (104:35) и съели всю траву на земле их, и съели плоды на полях их.
36 (104:36) И поразил всякого первенца в земле их, начатки всей силы их.
37 (104:37) И вывел [Израильтян] с серебром и золотом, и не было в коленах их болящего.
38 (104:38) Обрадовался Египет исшествию их; ибо страх от них напал на него.
39 (104:39) Простер облако в покров [им] и огонь, чтобы светить [им] ночью.
40 (104:40) Просили, и Он послал перепелов, и хлебом небесным насыщал их.
41 (104:41) Разверз камень, и потекли воды, потекли рекою по местам сухим,
42 (104:42) ибо вспомнил Он святое слово Свое к Аврааму, рабу Своему,
43 (104:43) и вывел народ Свой в радости, избранных Своих в веселии,
44 (104:44) и дал им земли народов, и они наследовали труд иноплеменных,
45 (104:45) чтобы соблюдали уставы Его и хранили законы Его. Аллилуия!
1 Give thanks to Yahweh! Call on his name!
Make his doings known among the peoples.
2 Sing to him, sing praises to him!
Tell of all his marvelous works.
3 Glory in his holy name.
Let the heart of those who seek Yahweh rejoice.
4 Seek Yahweh and his strength.
Seek his face forever more.
5 Remember his marvelous works that he has done:
his wonders, and the judgments of his mouth,
6 you offspring of Abraham, his servant,
you children of Jacob, his chosen ones.
7 He is Yahweh, our God.
His judgments are in all the earth.
8 He has remembered his covenant forever,
the word which he commanded to a thousand generations,
9 the covenant which he made with Abraham,
his oath to Isaac,
10 and confirmed it to Jacob for a statute;
to Israel for an everlasting covenant,
11 saying, "To you I will give the land of Canaan,
the lot of your inheritance,"
12 when they were but a few men in number,
yes, very few, and foreigners in it.
13 They went about from nation to nation,
from one kingdom to another people.
14 He allowed no one to do them wrong.
Yes, he reproved kings for their sakes,
15 "Don’t touch my anointed ones!
Do my prophets no harm!"
16 He called for a famine on the land.
He destroyed the food supplies.
17 He sent a man before them.
Joseph was sold for a slave.
18 They bruised his feet with shackles.
His neck was locked in irons,
19 until the time that his word happened,
and Yahweh’s word proved him true.
20 The king sent and freed him,
even the ruler of peoples, and let him go free.
21 He made him lord of his house,
and ruler of all of his possessions,
22 to discipline his princes at his pleasure,
and to teach his elders wisdom.
23 Israel also came into Egypt.
Jacob lived in the land of Ham.
24 He increased his people greatly,
and made them stronger than their adversaries.
25 He turned their heart to hate his people,
to conspire against his servants.
26 He sent Moses, his servant,
and Aaron, whom he had chosen.
27 They performed miracles among them,
and wonders in the land of Ham.
28 He sent darkness, and made it dark.
They didn’t rebel against his words.
29 He turned their waters into blood,
and killed their fish.
30 Their land swarmed with frogs,
even in the rooms of their kings.
31 He spoke, and swarms of flies came,
and lice in all their borders.
32 He gave them hail for rain,
with lightning in their land.
33 He struck their vines and also their fig trees,
and shattered the trees of their country.
34 He spoke, and the locusts came
with the grasshoppers, without number.
35 They ate up every plant in their land,
and ate up the fruit of their ground.
36 He struck also all the firstborn in their land,
the first fruits of all their manhood.
37 He brought them out with silver and gold.
There was not one feeble person among his tribes.
38 Egypt was glad when they departed,
for the fear of them had fallen on them.
39 He spread a cloud for a covering,
fire to give light in the night.
40 They asked, and he brought quails,
and satisfied them with the bread of the sky.
41 He opened the rock, and waters gushed out.
They ran as a river in the dry places.
42 For he remembered his holy word,
and Abraham, his servant.
43 He brought his people out with joy,
his chosen with singing.
44 He gave them the lands of the nations.
They took the labor of the peoples in possession,
45 that they might keep his statutes,
and observe his laws.
Praise Yah!
