1 Chronicles 16:17-30 World English Bible (WEB)

17. He confirmed the same to Jacob for a statute, and to Israel for an everlasting covenant,

18. saying, “I will give you the land of Canaan, The lot of your inheritance,”

19. when you were but a few men in number, yes, very few, and foreigners were in it.

20. They went about from nation to nation, from one kingdom to another people.

21. He allowed no man to do them wrong. Yes, he reproved kings for their sakes,

22. “Don’t touch my anointed ones! Do my prophets no harm!”

23. Sing to Yahweh, all the earth! Display his salvation from day to day.

24. Declare his glory among the nations, and his marvelous works among all the peoples.

25. For great is Yahweh, and greatly to be praised. He also is to be feared above all gods.

26. For all the gods of the peoples are idols, but Yahweh made the heavens.

27. Honor and majesty are before him. Strength and gladness are in his place.

28. Ascribe to Yahweh, you relatives of the peoples, ascribe to Yahweh glory and strength!

29. Ascribe to Yahweh the glory due to his name. Bring an offering, and come before him. Worship Yahweh in holy array.

30. Tremble before him, all the earth. The world also is established that it can’t be moved.
