1 Chronicles 16:11-21

11 Seek the Lord and His strength; Seek His face evermore!

12 Remember His marvelous works which He has done, His wonders, and the judgments of His mouth,

13 O seed of Israel His servant, You children of Jacob, His chosen ones!

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

15 Remember His covenant forever, The word which He commanded, for a thousand generations,

16 The covenant which He made with Abraham, And His oath to Isaac,

17 And confirmed it to Jacob for a statute, To Israel for an everlasting covenant,

18 Saying, "To you I will give the land of Canaan As the allotment of your inheritance,"

19 When you were few in number, Indeed very few, and strangers in it.

20 When they went from one nation to another, And from one kingdom to another people,

21 He permitted no man to do them wrong; Yes, He rebuked kings for their sakes,
