1 Chronicles 16:7-36
Legacy Standard Bible

7 Then on that day David (A)first assigned [a]Asaph and his [b]relatives to give thanks to Yahweh.

Song of Thanksgiving

8 (B)Oh give thanks to Yahweh, call upon His name;
(C)Make known His acts among the peoples.
9 Sing to Him, sing praises to Him;
Muse on all His wondrous deeds.
10 Boast in His holy name;
Let the heart of those who seek Yahweh be glad.
11 (D)Inquire of Yahweh and His strength;
Seek His face continually.
12 (E)Remember His wondrous deeds which He has done,
(F)His miraculous signs and the judgments uttered by His mouth,
13 O seed of Israel His servant,
O sons of Jacob, His chosen ones!
14 He is Yahweh our God;
(G)His judgments are in all the earth.
15 Remember His covenant forever,
The word which He commanded for a thousand generations,
16 (H)Which He cut with Abraham,
And His oath to Isaac.
17 (I)Then He also confirmed it to Jacob for a statute,
To Israel as an everlasting covenant,
18 Saying, “(J)To you I will give the land of Canaan,
As the portion of your inheritance,”
19 (K)When you were only a few men in number,
Of little account, and sojourners in it,
20 And they wandered about from nation to nation,
And from one kingdom to another people,
21 He permitted no man to oppress them,
And (L)He reproved kings for their sakes,
22 “Do not touch My anointed ones,
And (M)against My prophets do no evil.”
23 (N)Sing to Yahweh, all the earth;
Proclaim good news of His salvation from day to day.
24 Recount His glory among the nations,
His wondrous deeds among all the peoples.
25 For (O)great is Yahweh, and greatly to be praised;
And He is [c](P)more [d]fearsome than all gods.
26 For all the gods of the peoples are [e](Q)idols,
(R)But Yahweh made the heavens.
27 Splendor and majesty are before Him,
Strength and joy are in His place.
28 Ascribe to Yahweh, O families of the peoples,
Ascribe to Yahweh glory and strength.
29 Ascribe to Yahweh the glory of His name;
Lift up [f]an offering, and come before Him;
(S)Worship Yahweh in the splendor of holiness.
30 Tremble before Him, all the earth;
Indeed, the world is established, it will not be shaken.
31 (T)Let the heavens be glad, and let the earth rejoice;
And let them say among the nations, “(U)Yahweh reigns.”
32 (V)Let the sea [g]roar, as well as its fullness;
Let the field exult, and all that is in it.
33 Then the trees of the forest will sing for joy before Yahweh;
For He is coming to judge the earth.
34 (W)Oh give thanks to Yahweh, for He is good,
For His lovingkindness endures forever.
35 (X)Then say, “Save us, O God of our salvation,
And gather us and deliver us from among the nations,
To give thanks to Your holy name
And revel in Your praise.”
36 (Y)Blessed be Yahweh, the God of Israel,
From everlasting to everlasting.

Then all the people (Z)said, “Amen,” and praised Yahweh.

1 Chronicles 16:7-36
New English Translation

David Thanks God

7 That day David first gave to Asaph and his colleagues this song of thanks to the Lord.

8 Give thanks to the Lord!
Call on his name!
Make known his accomplishments among the nations.
9 Sing to him! Make music to him!
Tell about all his miraculous deeds.
10 Boast about his holy name.
Let the hearts of those who seek the Lord rejoice.
11 Seek the Lord and the strength he gives.
Seek his presence[a] continually!
12 Recall the miraculous deeds he performed,
his mighty acts and the judgments he decreed,[b]
13 O children[c] of Israel, God’s[d] servant,
you descendants of Jacob, God’s[e] chosen ones!
14 He is the Lord our God;
he carries out judgment throughout the earth.[f]
15 Remember[g] continually his covenantal decree,
the promise he made[h] to a thousand generations—
16 the promise[i] he made to Abraham,
the promise he made by oath to Isaac![j]
17 He gave it to Jacob as a decree,
to Israel as a lasting promise,[k]
18 saying, “To you I will give the land of Canaan
as the portion of your inheritance.”
19 When they were few in number,
just a very few, and foreign residents within it,
20 they wandered from nation to nation,
and from one kingdom to another.[l]
21 He let no one oppress them;
he disciplined kings for their sake,
22 saying,[m] “Don’t touch my anointed ones!
Don’t harm my prophets!”
23 Sing to the Lord, all the earth!
Announce every day[n] how he delivers.
24 Tell the nations about his splendor,
tell[o] all the nations about his miraculous deeds.
25 For the Lord is great and certainly worthy of praise,
he is more awesome than[p] all gods.
26 For all the gods of the nations are worthless,[q]
but the Lord made the heavens.[r]
27 Majestic splendor emanates from him,[s]
he is the source of strength and joy.[t]
28 Ascribe to the Lord, O families of the nations,
ascribe to the Lord splendor and strength!
29 Ascribe to the Lord the splendor he deserves![u]
Bring an offering and enter his presence!
Worship the Lord in holy attire![v]
30 Tremble before him, all the earth!
The world is established, it cannot be moved.
31 Let the heavens rejoice, and the earth be happy!
Let the nations say,[w] “The Lord reigns!”
32 Let the sea and everything in it shout!
Let the fields and everything in them celebrate!
33 Then let the trees of the forest shout with joy before the Lord,
for he comes to judge the earth!
34 Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good
and his loyal love endures.[x]
35 Say this prayer:[y] “Deliver us, O God who delivers us!
Gather us! Rescue us from the nations!
Then we will give thanks[z] to your holy name,
and boast about your praiseworthy deeds.”[aa]
36 May the Lord God of Israel be praised,
in the future and forevermore.[ab]
Then all the people said, “We agree![ac] Praise the Lord.”

  8. 1 Chronicles 16:15 tn Heb “[the] word he commanded.” The text refers here to God’s unconditional covenantal promise to Abraham and the patriarchs, as vv. 16-18 make clear.
