with psalteries nebel #
and with harps ;
but Asaph made a sound with cymbals ;
*
Benaiah also and Jahaziel the priests with trumpets continually before the ark of the covenant of God .
*
Then on that day David delivered first this psalm to thank the LORD into the hand of Asaph and his brethren .
*
Give thanks unto the LORD ,
call upon his name ,
make known his deeds among the people .
*
Sing unto him ,
sing psalms unto him ,
talk ye of all his wondrous works .
*
Glory ye in his holy name :
let the heart of them rejoice that seek the LORD .
*
Seek the LORD and his strength ,
seek his face continually .
*
Remember his marvellous works that he hath done ,
his wonders ,
and the judgments of his mouth ;
*
O ye seed of Israel his servant ,
ye children of Jacob Ya #
aqob #,
his chosen ones .
*
He is the LORD our God ;
his judgments are in all the earth .
*
Be ye mindful always of his covenant ;
the word which he commanded to a thousand generations ;
*
Even of the covenant which he made with Abraham ,
and of his oath unto Isaac ;
*
And hath confirmed the same to Jacob for a law ,
and to Israel for an everlasting covenant ,
*
Saying ,
Unto thee will I give the land of Canaan K @

When ye were but few micpar #,
even a few m @#

and strangers in it .
*
And when they went from nation to nation ,
and from one kingdom to another people ;
*
He suffered no man to do them wrong :
yea ,
he reproved kings for their sakes ,
*
Saying ,
Touch not mine anointed ,
and do my prophets no harm .
*
Sing unto the LORD ,
all the earth ;
shew forth from day to day his salvation y @

*
Declare his glory among the heathen ;
his marvellous works among all nations .
*
For great is the LORD ,
and greatly to be praised :
he also is to be feared above all gods .
*
For all the gods of the people are idols :
but the LORD made the heavens .
*
Glory and honour are in his presence ;
strength and gladness are in his place .
*
Give unto the LORD ,
ye kindreds of the people ,
give unto the LORD glory and strength .
*
Give unto the LORD the glory due unto his name :
bring an offering ,
and come before him :
worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness .
*
Fear before him ,
all the earth :
the world also shall be stable ,
that it be not moved .
*
Let the heavens be glad ,
and let the earth rejoice :
and let men say among the nations ,
The LORD reigneth .
*
Let the sea roar ,
and the fulness thereof :
let the fields rejoice ,
and all that is therein .
*
Then shall the trees of the wood sing out at the presence of the LORD ,
because he cometh to judge the earth .
*
O give thanks unto the LORD ;
for he is good ;
for his mercy endureth for ever .
*
And say ye ,
Save us ,
O God of our salvation ,
and gather us together ,
and deliver us from the heathen ,
that we may give thanks to thy holy name ,
and glory in thy praise .
*
Blessed be the LORD God of Israel for ever and ever .
And all the people said ,
Amen ,
and praised the LORD .
