1 Chronicles 29:11-15

New King James Version

¹¹^(A)Yours, O Lord, is the greatness,
The power and the glory,
The victory and the majesty;
For all that is in heaven and in earth is Yours;
Yours is the kingdom, O Lord,
And You are exalted as head over all.
¹²^(B)Both riches and honor come from You,
And You reign over all.
In Your hand is power and might;
In Your hand it is to make great
And to give strength to all.

¹³“Now therefore, our God,
We thank You
And praise Your glorious name.
¹⁴But who am I, and who are my people,
That we should be able to offer so willingly as this?
For all things come from You,
And ^[a]of Your own we have given You.
¹⁵For ^(C)we are ^[b]aliens and ^[c]pilgrims before You,
As were all our fathers;
^(D)Our days on earth are as a shadow,
And without hope.

1 Chronicles 29:11-15

Young's Literal Translation

¹¹To Thee, O Jehovah, [is] the greatness, and the might, and the beauty, and the victory, and the honour, because of all in the heavens and in the earth; to Thee, O Jehovah, [is] the kingdom, and he who is lifting up himself over all for head;

¹²and the riches, and the honour [are] from before Thee, and Thou art ruling over all, and in Thy hand [is] power and might, and in Thy hand, to make great, and to give strength to all.

¹³`And now, our God, we are giving thanks to Thee, and giving praise to Thy beauteous name;

¹⁴yea, because, who [am] I, and who [are] my people, that we retain power to offer thus willingly? but of Thee [is] the whole, and out of Thy hand we have given to Thee;

¹⁵for sojourners we [are] before Thee, and settlers, like all our fathers; as a shadow [are] our days on the land, and there is none abiding.
