1 Chronicles 16:8–22

^8gOh, give thanks to the Lord!

Call upon His name;

Make known His deeds among the peoples!

⁹Sing to Him, sing psalms to Him;

Talk of all His wondrous works!

¹⁰Glory in His holy name;

Let the hearts of those rejoice who seek the Lord!

¹¹Seek the Lord and His strength;

Seek His face evermore!

¹²Remember His marvelous works which He has done,

His wonders, and the judgments of His mouth,

¹³O seed of Israel His servant,

You children of Jacob, His chosen ones!

¹⁴He is the Lord our God;

His ^hjudgments are in all the earth.

¹⁵Remember His covenant forever,

The word which He commanded, for a thousand generations,

¹⁶The ⁱcovenant which He made with Abraham,

And His oath to Isaac,

¹⁷And ^jconfirmed it to ^kJacob for a statute,

To Israel for an everlasting covenant,

¹⁸Saying, “To you I will give the land of Canaan

As the allotment of your inheritance,”

¹⁹When you were ^lfew in number,

Indeed very few, and strangers in it.

²⁰When they went from one nation to another,

And from one kingdom to another people,

²¹He permitted no man to do them wrong;

Yes, He ^mrebuked kings for their sakes,

²²Saying, ⁿ“Do not touch My anointed ones,

And do My prophets no harm.”
