1 Chronicles 16:11-21

11 Seek you Yahweh and his strength; Seek his face forever more.

12 Remember his marvelous works that he has done, His wonders, and the judgments of his mouth,

13 You seed of Israel his servant, You children of Jacob, his chosen ones.

14 He is Yahweh our God; His judgments are in all the earth.

15 Remember his covenant forever, The word which he commanded to a thousand generations,

16 [The covenant] which he made with Abraham, His oath to Isaac,

17 Confirmed the same to Jacob for a statute, To Israel for an everlasting covenant,

18 Saying, To you will I give the land of Canaan, The lot of your inheritance;

19 When you were but a few men in number, Yes, very few, and sojourners in it;

20 They went about from nation to nation, From one kingdom to another people.

21 He allowed no man to do them wrong; Yes, he reproved kings for their sakes,
