Seeker Overlay ON

* Then on that day David first ordained to give thanks to LORD by the hand of Asaph and his brothers . * O give thanks to LORD . Call upon his name . Make known his doings among the peoples . * Sing to him . Sing praises to him . Talk ye of all his marvelous works . * Glory ye in his holy name . Let the heart of those who seek LORD rejoice . * Seek ye LORD and his strength . Seek his face evermore . * Remember his marvelous works that he has done , his wonders , and the judgments of his mouth , * O ye seed of Israel his servant , ye sons of Jacob , his chosen ones . * He is LORD our God . His judgments are in all the earth . * Remember his covenant forever , the word which he commanded to a thousand generations , * [the covenant ] which he made with Abraham , and his oath to Isaac , * and confirmed the same to Jacob for a statute , to Israel for an everlasting covenant , * saying , To thee I will give the land of Canaan , the lot of your inheritance , * when ye were but a few men in number , yea , very few , and sojourners in it , * and they went about from nation to nation , and from one kingdom to another people . * He allowed no man to do them wrong . Yea , he reproved kings for their sakes , * [Saying ], Touch not my anointed ones , and do my prophets no harm . * Sing to LORD , all the earth . Show forth his salvation from day to day . * Declare his glory among the nations , his marvelous works among all the peoples . * For great is LORD , and greatly to be praised . He also is to be feared above all gods . * For all the gods of the peoples are idols . But LORD made the heavens . * Honor and majesty are before him . Strength and gladness are in his place . * Ascribe to LORD , ye kindred of the peoples . Ascribe to LORD glory and strength . * Ascribe to LORD the glory due to his name . Bring an offering , and come before him . Worship LORD in holy array . * Tremble before him , all the earth . The world also is established that it cannot be moved . * Let the heavens be glad , and let the earth rejoice . And let them say among the nations , LORD reigns . * Let the sea roar , and the fullness of it . Let the field exult , and all that is therein . * Then shall the trees of the wood sing for joy before LORD , for he comes to judge the earth . * O give thanks to LORD , for he is good , for his loving kindness [is ] forever . * And say ye , Save us , O God of our salvation . And gather us together and deliver us from the nations , to give thanks to thy holy name , and to triumph in thy praise . * Blessed be LORD , the God of Israel , from everlasting even to everlasting . And all the people said , Amen , and praised LORD . * So he left there , before the ark of the covenant of LORD , Asaph and his brothers , to minister before the ark continually , as every day 's work required , * and Obed-edom with their sixty-eight brothers . And Obed-edom the son of Jeduthun and Hosah [were ] to be porters , * and Zadok the priest , and his brothers the priests , before the tabernacle of LORD in the high place that was at Gibeon , * to offer burnt-offerings to LORD upon the altar of burnt-offering continually morning and evening , even according to all that is written in the law of LORD , which he commanded to Israel . * And with them Heman and Jeduthun , and the rest that were chosen , who were mentioned by name , to give thanks to LORD because his loving kindness [is ] forever . * And with them Heman and Jeduthun [with ] trumpets and cymbals for those who should sound aloud , and [with ] instruments for the songs of God , and the sons of Jeduthun to be at the gate . * And all the people departed every man to his house . And David returned to bless his house .
