1 Chronicles 16:8-18

8 Oh, give thanks to the Lord! Call upon His name; Make known His deeds among the peoples!

9 Sing to Him, sing psalms to Him; Talk of all His wondrous works!

10 Glory in His holy name; Let the hearts of those rejoice who seek the Lord!

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,"
