[7 ](/kjv/1-chronicles/16/7) ΒΆ Then on that day David delivered first *this psalm* to thank the LORD into the hand of Asaph and his brethren. [8 ](/kjv/1-chronicles/16/8) Give thanks unto the LORD, call upon his name, make known his deeds among the people. [9 ](/kjv/1-chronicles/16/9) Sing unto him, sing psalms unto him, talk ye of all his wondrous works. [10 ](/kjv/1-chronicles/16/10) Glory ye in his holy name: let the heart of them rejoice that seek the LORD. [11 ](/kjv/1-chronicles/16/11) Seek the LORD and his strength, seek his face continually. [12 ](/kjv/1-chronicles/16/12) Remember his marvellous works that he hath done, his wonders, and the judgments of his mouth; [13 ](/kjv/1-chronicles/16/13) O ye seed of Israel his servant, ye children of Jacob, his chosen ones. [14 ](/kjv/1-chronicles/16/14) He *is* the LORD our God; his judgments *are* in all the earth. [15 ](/kjv/1-chronicles/16/15) Be ye mindful always of his covenant; the word *which* he commanded to a thousand generations; [16 ](/kjv/1-chronicles/16/16) *Even of the covenant* which he made with Abraham, and of his oath unto Isaac; [17 ](/kjv/1-chronicles/16/17) And hath confirmed the same to Jacob for a law, *and* to Israel *for* an everlasting covenant, [18 ](/kjv/1-chronicles/16/18) Saying, Unto thee will I give the land of Canaan, the lot of your inheritance;* [19 ](/kjv/1-chronicles/16/19) When ye were but few, even a few, and strangers in it.* [20 ](/kjv/1-chronicles/16/20) And *when* they went from nation to nation, and from *one* kingdom to another people; [21 ](/kjv/1-chronicles/16/21) He suffered no man to do them wrong: yea, he reproved kings for their sakes, [22 ](/kjv/1-chronicles/16/22) *Saying*, Touch not mine anointed, and do my prophets no harm. [23 ](/kjv/1-chronicles/16/23) Sing unto the LORD, all the earth; shew forth from day to day his salvation. [24 ](/kjv/1-chronicles/16/24) Declare his glory among the heathen; his marvellous works among all nations. [25 ](/kjv/1-chronicles/16/25) For great *is* the LORD, and greatly to be praised: he also *is* to be feared above all gods.
