Psalms 105:15

Protection and safety

13 they wandered from nation to nation, from one kingdom to another.

14 He let no man oppress them; He rebuked kings on their behalf:

“Do not touch My anointed ones! Do no harm to My prophets!”

16 He called down famine on the land and cut off all their supplies of food.

17 He sent a man before them— Joseph, sold as a slave.
