David’s Song of Praise

On that day David gave to Asaph and his fellow Levites this song of thanksgiving to the Lord:

Give thanks to the Lord and proclaim his greatness.
    Let the whole world know what he has done.
Sing to him; yes, sing his praises.
    Tell everyone about his wonderful deeds.
10 Exult in his holy name;
    rejoice, you who worship the Lord.
11 Search for the Lord and for his strength;
    continually seek him.
12 Remember the wonders he has performed,
    his miracles, and the rulings he has given,
13 you children of his servant Israel,
    you descendants of Jacob, his chosen ones.

14 He is the Lord our God.
    His justice is seen throughout the land.
15 Remember his covenant forever—
    the commitment he made to a thousand generations.
16 This is the covenant he made with Abraham
    and the oath he swore to Isaac.
17 He confirmed it to Jacob as a decree,
    and to the people of Israel as a never-ending covenant:
18 “I will give you the land of Canaan
    as your special possession.”

19 He said this when you were few in number,
    a tiny group of strangers in Canaan.
20 They wandered from nation to nation,
    from one kingdom to another.
21 Yet he did not let anyone oppress them.
    He warned kings on their behalf:
22 “Do not touch my chosen people,
    and do not hurt my prophets.”

23 Let the whole earth sing to the Lord!
    Each day proclaim the good news that he saves.
24 Publish his glorious deeds among the nations.
    Tell everyone about the amazing things he does.
25 Great is the Lord! He is most worthy of praise!
    He is to be feared above all gods.
26 The gods of other nations are mere idols,
    but the Lord made the heavens!
27 Honor and majesty surround him;
    strength and joy fill his dwelling.

28 O nations of the world, recognize the Lord,
    recognize that the Lord is glorious and strong.
29 Give to the Lord the glory he deserves!
    Bring your offering and come into his presence.
Worship the Lord in all his holy splendor.
30     Let all the earth tremble before him.
    The world stands firm and cannot be shaken.

31 Let the heavens be glad, and the earth rejoice!
    Tell all the nations, “The Lord reigns!”
32 Let the sea and everything in it shout his praise!
    Let the fields and their crops burst out with joy!
33 Let the trees of the forest sing for joy before the Lord,
    for he is coming to judge the earth.

34 Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good!
    His faithful love endures forever.
35 Cry out, “Save us, O God of our salvation!
    Gather and rescue us from among the nations,
so we can thank your holy name
    and rejoice and praise you.”

36 Praise the Lord, the God of Israel,
    who lives from everlasting to everlasting!

And all the people shouted “Amen!” and praised the Lord.

David’s Psalm of Thanksgiving(A)

On that very day, David composed this psalm of thanksgiving to the Lord just for[a] Asaph and his companions:[b]

Give thanks to the Lord,
    calling on his name.
        Make what he has done known among the people.
Sing to him,
    sing psalms to him,
        and think[c] about all of his miraculous deeds.
10 Find joy in his holy name;
    let the hearts of those who keep on seeking the Lord rejoice.
11 Seek the Lord and his strength.
    Always look to him.[d]
12 Keep remembering the awesome deeds that he has done,
    along with his miracles
        and the rulings that he has handed down,
13 you descendants of his servant Israel,
    you descendants of Jacob,
        the ones he has chosen.

14 He is the Lord our God.
    His justice is in all of the land.
15 Remember his covenant forever,
    his promise that he made to the thousandth generation,
16 the covenant[e] that he made with Abraham,
    and the oath he swore to Isaac.
17 He confirmed it to Jacob in the form of an ordinance,
    an eternal covenant to Israel,
18 when he told Israel,
    “To you I will give the land of Canaan
        as your joyful inheritance.”[f]

19 When you were few in number—
    very few, and strangers at that—
20 wandering from nation to nation,
    from one kingdom to another,
21 he did not let anyone wrong them.
    He warned kings on their behalf,
22 “Don’t touch my chosen ones,
    and don’t hurt my prophets!”

23 Let all the earth sing to the Lord!
    Day after day proclaim his deliverance![g]
24 Declare his glory among the nations,
    and his miraculous deeds to all people,
25 because the Lord is great,
    and he is praised greatly!
        He is feared above every god.
26 For all of the gods of the other[h] nations are mere[i] idols,
    but the Lord fashioned the heavens!
27 Splendor and majesty surround him,
    and strength and joy fill his palace.[j]

28 Let the families of earth recognize the Lord
    that he is glorious and powerful.
29 Recognize the glory that is due the Lord!
    Bring your offering,
and come into his presence,
    worshiping the Lord in all of his holy splendor.
30 Tremble in his presence, all the earth!
    Surely the inhabited world[k] stands firm—
        it cannot be moved.

31 Let the heavens rejoice,
    and the earth be glad!
Say to the nations,
    “The Lord reigns!”
32 Let the sea roar
    along with everything that fills it!
Let the fields exult,
    along with everything in them!
33 Then let the trees in the forest sing out in praise,
    for the Lord is coming to judge the world.

34 Give thanks to the Lord,
    because he is good
        and because his gracious love is eternal!
35 Call out,[l] “Save us, God, you who delivers us!
    Gather us and rescue us from the nations!”
We will thank your holy name
    and rejoice as we praise you!
36 Praise the Lord God of Israel,
    who lives from eternity to eternity!

Then all of the people shouted “Amen!” and praised the Lord.
