In context

1Give thanks to the LORD, call upon His name; 2Sing to Him, sing praises to Him; 3Glory in His holy name; 4Seek out the LORD and His strength; 5Remember the wonders He has done, 6O offspring of His servant Abraham, 7He is the LORD our God; 8He remembers His covenant forever, 9the covenant He made with Abraham, 10He confirmed it to Jacob as a decree, 11“I will give you the land of Canaan 12When they were few in number, 13they wandered from nation to nation, 14He let no man oppress them; 15“Do not touch My anointed ones! 16He called down famine on the land 17He sent a man before them— 18They bruised his feet with shackles 19until his prediction came true 20The king sent and released him; 21He made him master of his household, 22to instruct his princes as he pleased 23Then Israel entered Egypt; 24And the LORD made His people very fruitful, 25whose hearts He turned to hate His people, 26He sent Moses His servant, 27They performed His miraculous signs among them, 28He sent darkness, and it became dark— 29He turned their waters to blood 30Their land teemed with frogs, 31He spoke, and insects swarmed— 32He gave them hail for rain, 33He struck their vines and fig trees 34He spoke, and the locusts came— 35They devoured every plant in their land 36Then He struck all the firstborn in their land, 37He brought Israel out with silver and gold, 38Egypt was glad when they departed, 39He spread a cloud as a covering 40They asked, and He brought quail 41He opened a rock, and water gushed out; 42For He remembered His holy promise 43He brought forth His people with rejoicing, 44He gave them the lands of the nations, 45that they might keep His statutes
