1 Chronicles 16:12-22

12 Remember the miracles he performed, the amazing things he did and the judgments he pronounced,

13 you descendants of Israel, his servant, you descendants of Jacob, his chosen ones.

14 "He is the LORD our God. His judgments are pronounced throughout the earth.

15 Remember his promise forever, the word that he commanded for a thousand generations,

16 the promise that he made to Abraham, and his sworn promise to Isaac.

17 He confirmed it as a law for Jacob, as an everlasting promise to Israel,

18 by saying, 'I will give you Canaan. It is your share of the inheritance.'

19 "While they were few in number, a small group of foreigners living in that land,

20 they wandered from nation to nation and from one kingdom to another.

21 He didn't permit anyone to oppress them. He warned kings about them:

22 'Do not touch my anointed ones or harm my prophets.'
