The Eternal Faithfulness of the Lord

1 Oh, agive thanks to the Lord!
Call upon His name;
bMake known His deeds among the peoples! 
2 Sing to Him, sing psalms to Him;
aTalk of all His wondrous works! 
3 Glory in His holy name;
Let the hearts of those rejoice who seek the Lord!
4 Seek the Lord and His strength;
aSeek His face evermore! 
5 aRemember His marvelous works which He has done,
His wonders, and the judgments of His mouth, 
6 O seed of Abraham His servant,
You children of Jacob, His chosen ones!
7 He is the Lord our God;
aHis judgments are in all the earth. 
8 He aremembers His covenant forever,
The word which He commanded, for a thousand generations, 
9 aThe covenant which He made with Abraham,
And His oath to Isaac, 
10 And confirmed it to Jacob for a statute,
To Israel as an everlasting covenant,
11 Saying, a“To you I will give the land of Canaan
As the allotment of your inheritance,” 
12 aWhen they were few in number,
Indeed very few, band strangers in it. 
13 When they went from one nation to another,
From one kingdom to another people,
14 aHe permitted no one to do them wrong;
Yes, bHe rebuked kings for their sakes, 
15 Saying, “Do not touch My anointed ones,
And do My prophets no harm.”
16 Moreover aHe called for a famine in the land;
He destroyed all the bprovision of bread. 
17 aHe sent a man before them—
Joseph—who bwas sold as a slave.

Psalms 105:1

After an exhortation to praise God, addressed especially to the chosen people, the writer presents the special reason for praise, in a summary of their history from the calling of Abraham to their settlement in Canaan, and reminds them that their obedience was the end of all God's gracious dealings. (Psa. 105:1-45)

call . . . name— (Psalms 79:6; Romans 10:13). Call on Him, according to His historically manifested glory. After the example of Abraham, who, as often as God acquired for Himself a name in guiding him, called in solemn worship upon the name of the Lord (Genesis 12:8; Genesis 13:4).

among the people—or, "peoples" (Psalms 18:49).

deeds—or, "wonders" (Psalms 103:7).
