Context David's Psalm of Thanksgiving
7Then on that day David delivered first this psalm to thank the LORD into the hand of Asaph and his brothers. 8Give thanks to the LORD, call on his name, make known his deeds among the people. 9Sing to him, sing psalms to him, talk you of all his wondrous works. 10Glory you in his holy name: let the heart of them rejoice that seek the LORD. 11Seek the LORD and his strength, seek his face continually. 12Remember his marvelous works that he has done, his wonders, and the judgments of his mouth; 13O you seed of Israel his servant, you children of Jacob, his chosen ones. 14He is the LORD our God; his judgments are in all the earth. 15Be you mindful always of his covenant; the word which he commanded to a thousand generations; 16Even of the covenant which he made with Abraham, and of his oath to Isaac; 17And has confirmed the same to Jacob for a law, and to Israel for an everlasting covenant, 18Saying, To you will I give the land of Canaan, the lot of your inheritance; 19When you were but few, even a few, and strangers in it. 20And when they went from nation to nation, and from one kingdom to another people; 21He suffered no man to do them wrong: yes, he reproved kings for their sakes, 22Saying, Touch not my anointed, and do my prophets no harm. 23Sing to the LORD, all the earth; show forth from day to day his salvation. 24Declare his glory among the heathen; his marvelous works among all nations. 25For great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised: he also is to be feared above all gods. 26For all the gods of the people are idols: but the LORD made the heavens. 27Glory and honor are in his presence; strength and gladness are in his place. 28Give to the LORD, you kindreds of the people, give to the LORD glory and strength. 29Give to the LORD the glory due to his name: bring an offering, and come before him: worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness. 30Fear before him, all the earth: the world also shall be stable, that it be not moved. 31Let the heavens be glad, and let the earth rejoice: and let men say among the nations, The LORD reigns. 32Let the sea roar, and the fullness thereof: let the fields rejoice, and all that is therein. 33Then shall the trees of the wood sing out at the presence of the LORD, because he comes to judge the earth. 34O give thanks to the LORD; for he is good; for his mercy endures for ever. 35And say you, Save us, O God of our salvation, and gather us together, and deliver us from the heathen, that we may give thanks to your holy name, and glory in your praise. 36Blessed be the LORD God of Israel for ever and ever. And all the people said, Amen, and praised the LORD. Parallel Verses American Standard Version
