Psalms 105
1
O give thanks unto the LORD; call upon his name: make known his deeds among the people.
2
Sing unto him, Sing psalms unto him: talk ye of all his wondrous works.
3
Glory ye in his holy name: let the heart of them rejoice that seek the LORD.
4
Seek the LORD, and his strength: Seek his face evermore.
5
Remember his marvellous works that he hath done; his wonders, and the judgments of his mouth;
6
O ye seed of Abraham his servant, ye children of Jacob his chosen.
7
He is the LORD our God: his judgments are in all the earth.
8
He hath remembered his covenant for ever, the word which he commanded to a thousand generations.
9
Which covenant he made with Abraham, and his oath unto Isaac;
10
And confirmed the same unto Jacob for a law, 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 one nation to another, from one kingdom to another people;
14
He suffered no man to do them wrong: yea, he reproved 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 brake the whole staff of bread.
17
He sent a man before them, even Joseph, who was sold for a servant:
18
Whose feet they hurt with fetters: he was laid in iron:
19
Until the time that his word came: the word of the LORD tried him.
20
The king sent and loosed him; even the ruler of the people, and let him go free.
21
He made him lord of his house, and ruler of all his substance:
22
To bind his princes at his pleasure; and teach his senators wisdom.
23
Israel also came into Egypt; and Jacob sojourned in the land of Ham.
24
And he increased his people greatly; and made them stronger than their enemies.
25
He turned their heart to hate his people, to deal subtilly with his servants.
26
He sent Moses his servant; and Aaron whom he had chosen.
27
They shewed his signs among them, and wonders in the land of Ham.
28
He sent darkness, and made it dark; and they rebelled not against his word.
29
He turned their waters into blood, and slew their fish.
30
Their land brought forth frogs in abundance, in the chambers of their kings.
31
He spake, and there came divers sorts of flies, and lice in all their coasts.
32
He gave them hail for rain, and flaming fire in their land.
33
He smote their vines also and their fig trees; and brake the trees of their coasts.
34
He spake, and the locusts came, and caterpillers, and that without number,
35
And did eat up all the herbs in their land, and devoured the fruit of their ground.
36
He smote also all the firstborn in their land, the chief of all their strength.
37
He brought them forth also with silver and gold: and there was not one feeble person among their tribes.
38
Egypt was glad when they departed: for the fear of them fell upon them.
39
He spread a cloud for a covering; and fire to give light in the night.
40
The people asked, and he brought quails, and satisfied them with the bread of heaven.
41
He opened the rock, and the waters gushed out; they ran in the dry places like a river.
42
For he remembered his holy promise, and Abraham his servant.
43
And he brought forth his people with joy, and his chosen with gladness:
44
And gave them the lands of the heathen: and they inherited the labour of the people;
45
That they might observe his statutes, and keep his laws. Praise ye the LORD.
Arcana Coelestia＃1787
1787. ‘Ne timeas Abram, Ego clypeus tibi:’ quod significet tutationem contra mala et falsa cui confiditur, constat a significatione ‘clypei’, de qua mox: haec verba quod nempe ‘Jehovah clypeus’ et quod ‘merces valde’, sunt verba consolationis post tentationes; omnis tentatio secum habet aliquam speciem desperationis, alioquin non est tentatio, quare etiam consolatio sequitur; qui tentatur, in anxietates fertur quae inducunt statum desperationis de fine; ipsa pugna tentationis non aliud est: qui in certitudine est de victoria, is non in anxietate est, ita nec in tentatione:
[2] Dominus quia sustinuit omnium dirissimas et crudelissimas tentationes, non potuit aliter ac quod etiam in desperationes actus esset, quas dispelleret et evinceret propria potentia; ut satis constare potest a tentatione Ipsius in Gethsemane, de qua ita apud Lucam Cum Jesus esset in loco, dixit discipulis, Orate ut non ingrediamini in tentationem; Ipse autem abstractus est ab illis quasi ad jactum lapidis, et ponens genua oravit, dicens, Pater, si velis, ut transeat calix hic a Me, attamen non voluntas Mea, sed Tua fiat: visus autem Ipsi angelus e caelo confortans Ipsum; cumque esset in angore, intentius oravit; factus vero sudor Ipsius ut guttae 1 sanguinis descendentes super terram, 22:40-45:
apud Matthaeum, Incipit affici dolore et angore; tunc dixit discipulis, Maesta tota est anima Mea usque ad mortem, ... et progressus paulum cecidit super faciem Suam precans, dicens, Pater Mi, si possibile est, transeat a Me calix hic; verum tamen non sicut Ego volo, sed sicut Tu:... rursus secunda vice abiit, et precatus est, dicens, Pater Mi, si non potest hic calix transire a Me, nisi bibero illum, fiat voluntas Tua; ... et precatus est tertia vice, idem verbum dicens, Matth. 26:36-44:
apud Marcum, Coepit expavescere et valde angi, ... dixit discipulis, Maestitia circumdata est anima Mea usque ad mortem; ... progressus paululum, cecidit super terram, et oravit, ut, si possibile esset, transiret ab Ipso hora; dixit, Abba Pater, omnia possibilia Tibi, transfer calicem a Me hunc, non tamen ut Ego volo, sed sicut Tu: hoc secundo, et hoc tertio, 14:33-41.
[3] Ex his constare potest quales Domini tentationes fuerunt, quod omnium immanissimae, et quod Ipsi ab intimis angor, usque ad sudores sanguinis, et quod tunc in statu desperationis de fine et eventu, et quod Ipsi consolationes; haec verba, ‘Ego Jehovah clypeus tuus, et merces tua valde’ involvunt similiter consolationem post pugnas tentationum, de quibus in capite praecedente actum.
