1 Chronicles 16:27-37

27 Glory and beauty are in his presence; strength and gladness are in his place.

28 Give unto the LORD, ye families of the peoples, give unto the LORD glory and strength.

29 Give unto the LORD the glory of his name; bring a present and come before him; worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness.

30 Fear before him, all the earth; the world also is being made stable, that it be not moved.

32 Let the sea roar, and the fullness thereof; let the fields rejoice, and all that is therein.

35 And say, Save us, O God our saving health, and gather us together and deliver us from the Gentiles, that we may give thanks to thy holy name and glory in thy praise.

36 Blessed be the LORD God of Israel from eternity unto eternity. And all the people said, Amen and praised the LORD.

37 So he left there before the ark of the covenant of the LORD Asaph and his brethren to minister before the ark continually, each thing in its day;
