1 Chronicles 16:10-20

10 Praise ye his holy name; the heart of men seeking the Lord be glad (let the hearts of those seeking the Lord be glad).

11 Seek ye the Lord and his strength; seek ye ever[more] his face (seek ye his face forevermore).

12 Have ye mind of his marvels that he hath done; of his signs, and of the dooms of his mouth. (Remember the marvels that he hath done; his signs, and the judgements from his mouth.)

13 The seed of Israel, his servant, praise thou God; the sons of Jacob, his chosen, praise ye God. (Let the descendants of his servant Israel, praise ye God; let the children of Jacob, his chosen, praise ye God.)

14 He is the Lord our God; his dooms be in each land (let his judgements be in every land).

15 Have ye mind without end of his covenant; of the word which he covenanted into a thousand generations. (Remember his covenant forevermore; yea, the word which he covenanted to a thousand generations.)

16 Which word he covenanted with Abraham; and of his oath to Isaac.

17 And he ordained that word to Jacob into a commandment; and to Israel into (an) everlasting covenant. (And he ordained that word to Jacob for a commandment; and to Israel for an everlasting covenant.)

18 And he said, To thee I shall give the land of Canaan; the part of your heritage (the portion of your inheritance).

19 When they were few in number; little, and pilgrims thereof (yea, only a few, and strangers there).

20 And they passed from folk into folk; and from a realm to another people. (And they went from nation to nation; and from one kingdom to another.)
