1 Chronicles 16:23-43 ▼

23 (16:20) Sing vnto the Lorde all the earth: and shewe from day to day his saluation.

24 (16:21) Tell of his glory among the heathen: his wonderfull deedes among all natitions.

25 For great is the Lorde, and worthy to be praysed exceedingly: he is to be feared aboue all gods.

26 For all the gods of the people are but idoles: but the Lorde made heauen.

27 Prayse and honour are in his presence: strength and gladnesse are in his place.

28 Asscribe vnto the Lord ye kinredes of people, Asscribe to the Lorde glorie and dominion.

29 Asscribe vnto the Lord the glorie due vnto his name, bring sacrifices, and come before him, and worship the Lord in his glorious sanctuarie.

30 Let all the earth feare him: surely the world shalbe stable and not moue.

31 Let the heauens reioyce, and let the earth be glad, and let men tel among the nations that the Lorde is king.

32 Let the sea rore & the fulnesse thereof: let the fieldes reioyce, & all that is therin.

33 Then shall the trees of the wood reioyce at the presence of the Lord, because he commeth to iudge the earth.

34 O geue thankes vnto the Lorde, for he is good, for his mercie endureth euer:

35 And say ye, saue vs O God our saluation, gather vs together, and deliuer vs from among the heathen, that we may geue thankes to thy holy name, and triumph in the prayse of thee.

36 Blessed be the Lord God of Israel for euer and euer: & let all people say Amen, and prayse the Lorde.

37 And so he left there before the arke of the lordes couenaunt Asaph & his brethren, to minister before the arke continually, in such thinges as were to be done day by day.

38 And Obed Edom and his brethren, threescore and eyght, and Obed Edom the sonne of Ieduthun, and Hosa, were appoynted to be porters.

39 And Zadoc the priest & his brethren the priestes were before ye tabernacle of the lord, in the hie place that was at Gibeon,

40 To offer burnt offeringes vnto the Lorde vpon the burnt offering aulter perpetually, in the morning and euening, according to all that which is written in the lawe of the Lorde whiche he commaunded Israel.

41 And with them were Heman and Ieduthun, and other that were chosen, whose names were expressed to geue thankes to the Lorde, That his mercie lasteth euer.

42 And with them dyd Heman and Ieduthun sing with the trumpets and cymbales, making a sweete melodie with instrumentes of musicke & godly songues: And the sonnes of Ieduthun were porters.

43 And al the people departed euery man to his house, & Dauid returned to blesse his house.
