Translation:

1 Chronicles 16

8 Give thanks to the Lord, call on his name; 8 make known among the nations what he has done.

9 Sing to him, sing praise to him; 9 tell of all his wonderful acts.

10 Glory in his holy name; 10 let the hearts of those who seek the Lord rejoice.

11 Look to the Lord and his strength; 11 seek his face always.

12 Remember the wonders he has done, 12 his miracles, and the judgments he pronounced,

13 O descendants of Israel his servant, 13 O sons of Jacob, his chosen ones.

14 He is the Lord our God; 14 his judgments are in all the earth.

15 He remembers[a] his covenant forever, 15 the word he commanded, for a thousand generations,

16 the covenant he made with Abraham, 16 the oath he swore to Isaac.

17 He confirmed it to Jacob as a decree, 17 to Israel as an everlasting covenant:

18 "To you I will give the land of Canaan 18 as the portion you will inherit."

19 When they were but few in number, 19 few indeed, and strangers in it,

20 they[b] wandered from nation to nation, 20 from one kingdom to another.

21 He allowed no man to oppress them; 21 for their sake he rebuked kings:

22 "Do not touch my anointed ones; 22 do my prophets no harm."

23 Sing to the Lord, all the earth; 23 proclaim his salvation day after day.

24 Declare his glory among the nations, 24 his marvelous deeds among all peoples.

25 For great is the Lord and most worthy of praise; 25 he is to be feared above all gods.

26 For all the gods of the nations are idols, 26 but the Lord made the heavens.

27 Splendor and majesty are before him; 27 strength and joy in his dwelling place.

28 Ascribe to the Lord, O families of nations, 28 ascribe to the Lord glory and strength, 29 ascribe to the Lord the glory due his name. 29 Bring an offering and come before him; 29 worship the Lord in the splendor of his[c] with the splendor of holiness.

30 Tremble before him, all the earth! 30 The world is firmly established; it cannot be moved.

31 Let the heavens rejoice, let the earth be glad; 31 let them say among the nations, "The Lord reigns!"

32 Let the sea resound, and all that is in it; 32 let the fields be jubilant, and everything in them!

33 Then the trees of the forest will sing, 33 they will sing for joy before the Lord, 33 for he comes to judge the earth.

34 Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good; 34 his love endures forever.
