1 Chronicles 16:26-40 The Scriptures 1998 (ISR98)

26. For all the mighty ones of the peoples are matters of naught, But יהוה made the heavens.

27. Excellency and splendour are before Him, Strength and gladness are in His place.

30. Tremble before Him, all the earth. The world also is firmly established, immovable.

31. Let the heavens rejoice, and let the earth be glad; And let them say among the nations, “יהוה shall reign.”

32. Let the sea roar, and all that fills it; Let the field rejoice, and all that is in it.
