I. CHRONICLES XVI. 26.
Zechariah, Jeiél, and Shemiramoth,
and Jehiél, and Mattithiah, and Eliab,
and Benaiah, and Obed-edom: and
Jeiél with »ipsalteries and with harps;
ae Asaph +made_a_sound with xcym- als ;
6 Benaiah also and Jahaziél the priests with xtrumpets continually be- fore the_ark_of the_coyenant_of x=God.
7 Then on xthat xday David delivered xfirst this psalm to thank !the Lorp into the_hand_of Asaph and his breth-
ren,
8 “.Give_thanks unto ’the Lorn, -Call upon His name, *Make_known His deeds among the
=people.
9 -Sing unto Him,
*Sing_psalms unto Him, m*Talk ye of all His wondrous_ works, 10 «Glory ye in His holy name: FLet the_heart_of them rejoice 4that_seek ! the Lorp. 11 ‘Seek J the Lorp and His strength, “Seek His face continually. 12-Remember His marvellous_works that He -hath_done, His wonders, and the_judgments_ of His mouth ; 13 O_ye seed_of Israél His servant, Ye schildren_of Jacob, His chosen_ ones. 14 He is J the Lory our =God; is judgments wre in all the earth. 16 -Be_ye_mindful always of His cove- nant ; ° The word which He commanded to a thousand generations ; 16 Huen of the covenant which He emade with Abraham, And of His oath unto Isaac;
17 And hath_confirmed the_same to] “
Jacob for a slaw, And to Israél for an everlasting covenant, 18 Saying, ‘Unto thee will_I_give the_ land_of Canaan, The_™ lot_of your inheritance ;’ 19 When ye were but few, Even a few, and strangers in it. 20 And when they went from nation
to nation, And from one kingdom to another —people ; 21 He suffered no 7man to do_them_ wrong: A Yea, He reproved kings for their
sakes, 2 Saying, ‘*Touch not Mine =anoint-
e And tdo My prophets no harm.’ % Sing unto Jthe Lorp, all the
earth ; *Shew_forth from day to day His
Salvation. 24 -Declare His -glory among the n =heathen ; His marvellous_works among all p xnations.
2% For great is J the Lorp, and greatly to_be_praised : He also is to_be_feared above all
gods. 26 For all the_gods_of the =people are na idols: But / the Lorp made the heavens.
