17
8He also confirmed it to Jacob for a statute, To Israel as an everlastingcovenant,
18
Saying, "9To you I will give the land of Canaan, As the portion of your inheritance."
19
10When they were only a few in number, Very few, and strangers in it,
20
And they wandered about from nation to nation, And from one kingdom to anotherpeople,
21
He permittednoman to oppress them, And 11He reprovedkings for their sakes, saying,
22
"Do not touch My anointedones, And 12do My prophetsnoharm."
23
13Sing to the LORD, all the earth; Proclaim good tidings of His salvation from day to day.
24
Tell of His glory among the nations, His wonderfuldeeds among all the peoples.

For 14great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised; He also is 15to be fearedaboveallgods.
26
For all the gods of the peoples are 16idols, 17But the LORDmade the heavens.
27
Splendor and majesty are before Him, Strength and joy are in His place.
28
Ascribe to the LORD, O families of the peoples, Ascribe to the LORDglory and strength.
29
Ascribe to the LORD the glory due His name; Bring an offering, and comebefore Him; 18Worship the LORD in holyarray.

Tremblebefore* Him, all the earth; Indeed, the world is firmlyestablished, it will not be moved.
31
19Let the heavens be glad, and let the earthrejoice; And let them say among the nations, "20The LORDreigns."
32
21Let the searoar, and all it contains; Let the fieldexult, and all that is in it.
33
Then the trees of the forest will sing for joybefore* the LORD; For He is coming to judge the earth.
34
22O givethanks to the LORD, for He is good; For His lovingkindness is everlasting.
35
23Then say, "Save us, O God of our salvation, And gather us and deliver us from the nations, To givethanks to Your holyname, And glory in Your praise."
36
24Blessed be the LORD, the God of Israel, From everlasting even to everlasting. Then all the people25said, "Amen," and praised the LORD.
