1 Chronicles 16 :: New American Standard Bible 2020 (NASB20)

He appointed ^H5414 some ^H4480 of the Levites ^H3881 as ministers ^H8334 before ^H6440 the ark ^H727 of the LORD ^H3068, to celebrate ^H2142 and to thank ^H3034 and praise ^H1984 the LORD ^H3068 God ^H430 of Israel ^H3478:

Then ^H227 on that day ^H3117 David ^H1732 first ^H7218 assigned ^H5414 [fn]Asaph ^H623 and his relatives ^H251 to give ^H3034 thanks ^H3034 to the LORD ^H3068.

Give ^H3034 thanks ^H3034 to the LORD ^H3068, call ^H7121 upon His name ^H8034;

Make ^H3045 His deeds ^H5949 known ^H3045 among the peoples ^H5971.

Sing ^H7891 to Him, sing ^H2167 praises ^H2167 to Him;

[fn]Speak ^H7878 of all ^H3605 His [fn]wonders ^H6381.

Boast ^H1984 in His holy ^H6944 name ^H8034;

Let the heart ^H3820 of those who seek ^H1245 the LORD ^H3068 be ^H8055 joyful ^H8055.

Seek ^H1875 the LORD ^H3068 and His strength ^H5797;

Seek ^H1245 His face ^H6440 continually ^H8548.

Remember ^H2142 His wonderful ^H6381 deeds ^H6381 which ^H834 He has done ^H6213,

His marvels ^H4159 and the judgments ^H4941 from His mouth ^H6310,

You [fn]descendants ^H2233 of Israel ^H3478 His servant ^H5650,

Sons ^H1121 of Jacob ^H3290, His chosen ^H972 ones ^H972!

He is the LORD ^H3068 our God ^H430;

His judgments ^H4941 are in all ^H3605 the earth ^H776.

Remember ^H2142 His covenant ^H1285 forever ^H5769,

The word ^H1697 which He commanded ^H6680 to a thousand ^H505 generations ^H1755,

The covenant which ^H834 He made ^H3772 with Abraham ^H85,

And His oath ^H7621 to Isaac ^H3327.

He also confirmed ^H5975 it to Jacob ^H3290 as a statute ^H2706,

To Israel ^H3478 as an everlasting ^H5769 covenant ^H1285,

Saying ^H559, “To you I will give ^H5414 the land ^H776 of Canaan ^H3667,

As the portion ^H2256 of your inheritance ^H5159.”

When they were only a few ^H4962 in number ^H4557,

Very few ^H4592, and strangers ^H1481 in it,

And they wandered ^H1980 from nation ^H1471 to nation ^H1471,

And from one kingdom ^H4467 to another ^H312 people ^H5971,

He allowed ^H5117 no ^H3808 one ^H376 to oppress ^H6231 them,

And He rebuked ^H3198 kings ^H4428 for ^H5921 their sakes ^H5921, saying,

“Do not touch ^H5060 My anointed ^H4899 ones ^H4899,

And do ^H7489 not harm ^H7489 My prophets ^H5030.”

Sing ^H7891 to the LORD ^H3068, all ^H3605 the earth ^H776;

Proclaim ^H1319 good ^H1319 news ^H1319 of His salvation ^H3444 from day ^H3117 to day ^H3117.

Tell ^H5608 of His glory ^H3519 among the nations ^H1471,

His wonderful ^H6381 deeds ^H6381 among all ^H3605 the peoples ^H5971.

For great ^H1419 is the LORD ^H3068, and greatly ^H3966 to be praised ^H1984;

He also is to be feared ^H3372 above ^H5921 all ^H3605 gods ^H430.

For all ^H3605 the gods ^H430 of the peoples ^H5971 are [fn]idols ^H457,

But the LORD ^H3068 made ^H6213 the heavens ^H8064.

Splendor ^H1935 and majesty ^H1926 are before ^H6440 Him,

Strength ^H5797 and joy ^H2304 are in His place ^H4725.

Ascribe ^H3051 to the LORD ^H3068, you families ^H4940 of the peoples ^H5971,

Ascribe ^H3051 to the LORD ^H3068 glory ^H3519 and strength ^H5797.

Ascribe ^H3051 to the LORD ^H3068 the glory ^H3519 due His name ^H8034;

Bring ^H5375 an [fn]offering ^H4503, and come ^H935 before ^H6440 Him;

Worship ^H2331 the LORD ^H3068 in [fn]holy ^H6944 attire ^H1927.

Tremble ^H2342 before ^H4480 H6440 Him, all ^H3605 the earth ^H776;

Indeed ^H637, the world ^H8398 is firmly ^H3559 established ^H3559, it will not be moved ^H4131.

[fn]Let the heavens ^H8064 be ^H8055 joyful ^H8055, and the earth ^H776 rejoice ^H1523;

And let them say ^H559 among the nations ^H1471, “The LORD ^H3068 reigns ^H4427.”

Let the sea ^H3220 [fn]roar ^H7481, and [fn]everything ^H4393 it contains ^H4393;

Let the field ^H7704 rejoice ^H5970, and everything ^H3605 that is in it.

Then ^H227 the trees ^H6086 of the forest ^H3293 will sing ^H7442 for ^H7442 joy ^H7442 in the presence ^H6440 of the LORD ^H3068;

For He is coming ^H935 to judge ^H8199 the earth ^H776.

Give ^H3034 thanks ^H3034 to the LORD ^H3068, for He is good ^H2896;

For His faithfulness ^H2617 is everlasting ^H5769.

Then say ^H559, “Save ^H3467 us, God ^H430 of our salvation ^H3468,

And gather ^H6908 us and save ^H5337 us from the nations ^H1471,

To give ^H3034 thanks ^H3034 to Your holy ^H6944 name ^H8034,

And [fn]glory ^H7623 in Your praise ^H8416.”

Blessed ^H1288 be the LORD ^H3068, the God ^H430 of Israel ^H3478,

From everlasting ^H5769 to everlasting ^H5769!

Then all ^H3605 the people ^H5971 said ^H559, “Amen ^H543,” and praised ^H1984 the LORD ^H3068.

So he left ^H5800 Asaph ^H623 and his relatives ^H251 there ^H8033 before ^H6440 the ark ^H727 of the covenant ^H1285 of the LORD ^H3068, to minister ^H8334 before ^H6440 the ark ^H727 continually ^H8548, as every day’s ^H3117 work ^H1697 required ^H1697,

Then all ^H3605 the people ^H5971 departed ^H1980, each ^H376 to his house ^H1004; and David ^H1732 returned ^H5437 to bless ^H1288 his household ^H1004.
