1 Chronicles 16:26-40 Amplified Bible (AMP)

26. For all the gods of the people are [lifeless] idols, but the Lord made the heavens.

27. Honor and majesty are [found] in His presence; strength and joy are [found] in His sanctuary.

28. Ascribe to the Lord, you families of the peoples, ascribe to the Lord glory and strength,

29. Ascribe to the Lord the glory due His name. Bring an offering and come before Him; worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness and in holy array.

30. Tremble and reverently fear before Him, all the earth's peoples; the world also shall be established, so it cannot be moved.

31. Let the heavens be glad and let the earth rejoice; and let men say among the nations, The Lord reigns!

32. Let the sea roar, and all the things that fill it; let the fields rejoice, and all that is in them.

33. Then shall the trees of the wood sing out for joy before the Lord, for He comes to judge and govern the earth.

34. O give thanks to the Lord, for He is good; for His mercy and loving-kindness endure forever!

35. And say, Save us, O God of our salvation; gather us together and deliver us from the nations, that we may give thanks to Your holy name and glory in Your praise.

36. Blessed be the Lord, the God of Israel, forever and ever! And all the people said Amen! and praised the Lord.

37. So David left Asaph and his brethren before the ark of the covenant of the Lord to minister before the ark continually, as each day's work required,

38. And Obed-edom with [his] sixty-eight kinsmen. Also Obed-edom son of Jeduthun, and Hosah, were to be gatekeepers.

39. And David left Zadok the priest and his brethren the priests before the tabernacle of the Lord in the high place that was at Gibeon

40. To offer burnt offerings to the Lord upon the altar of burnt offering continually, morning and evening, and to do all that is written in the Law of the Lord which He commanded Israel.
