5. Remember his marvellous works that he has done, his wonders and the judgments of his mouth,
6. O ye seed of Abraham his slave, ye sons of Jacob his chosen.
7. He is the Lord our God; his judgments are in all the earth.
8. He has remembered his covenant for ever, the word which he commanded for a thousand generations,
9. which covenant he made with Abraham and his oath unto Isaac
10. and confirmed the same unto Jacob by decree, and to Israel for an everlasting covenant:
11. Saying, Unto thee will I give the land of Canaan, the lot of your inheritance,
12. when they were but a few men in number; yea, very few, and strangers in it.
13. When they went from nation to nation from one kingdom to another people,
14. he suffered no man to do them wrong; yea, he chastened kings for their sakes:
15. Saying, Touch not mine anointed and do my prophets no harm.
16. Moreover he called for a famine upon the land; he broke the whole staff of bread.
17. He sent a man before them, even Joseph, who was sold for a slave,
18. whose feet they hurt with fetters; his soul was laid in iron.
19. Until the time that his word came, the spoken word of the Lord purified him.
