1 Chronicles 16

1 They brought in the ark of God, and set it in the midst of the tent that David had set up for it: and they offered burnt offerings and peace offerings before God.

So they brought in the Arke of God, and set it in the middes of the Tabernacle that Dauid had pitched for it, and they offred burnt offrings and peace offrings before God.

2 When David had made an end of offering the burnt offering and the peace offerings, he blessed the people in the name of the LORD.

And when Dauid had made an ende of offering the burnt offering and the peace offerings, hee blessed the people in the Name of the Lord.

3 He dealt to everyone of Israel, both man and woman, to every one a loaf of bread, and a portion of meat, and a cake of raisins.

And he dealt to euery one of Israel both man and woman, to euery one a cake of breade, and a piece of flesh, and a bottel of wine.

4 He appointed certain of the Levites to minister before the ark of the LORD, and to celebrate and to thank and praise the LORD, the God of Israel:

And he appointed certaine of the Leuites to minister before the Arke of the Lord, and to rehearse and to thanke and prayse the Lord God of Israel:

5 Asaph the chief, and second to him Zechariah, Jaaziel, and Shemiramoth, and Jehiel, and Mattithiah, and Eliab, and Benaiah, and Obed-Edom, and Jeiel, with stringed instruments and with harps; and Asaph with cymbals, sounding aloud;

Asaph the chiefe, and next to him Zechariah, Ieiel, and Shemiramoth, and Iehiel, and Mattithiah, and Eliab, and Benaiah, and Obed Edom, euen Ieiel with instruments, violes and harpes, and Asaph to make a sound with cymbales,

6 and Benaiah and Jahaziel the cohanim with trumpets continually, before the ark of the covenant of God.

And Benaiah and Iahaziel Priestes, with trumpets continually before the Arke of the couenant of God.

7 Then on that day David first ordained to give thanks to the LORD, by the hand of Asaph and his brothers.

Then at that time Dauid did appoint at the beginning to giue thankes to the Lord by the hand of Asaph and his brethren.

8 Oh give thanks to the LORD. Call on his name. Make his deeds known among the peoples.

Praise the Lord and call vpon his Name: declare his workes among the people.

9 Sing to him. Sing praises to him. Tell of all his marvelous works.

Sing vnto him, sing praise vnto him, and talke of all his wonderfull workes.

10 Glory in his holy name. Let the heart of those who seek the LORD rejoice.

Reioyce in his holy Name: let the hearts of them that seeke the Lord reioyce.

11 Seek the LORD and his strength. Seek his face forever more.

Seeke the Lord and his strength: seeke his face continually.

12 Remember his marvelous works that he has done, his wonders, and the judgments of his mouth,

O seede of Israel his seruant, O the children of Iaakob his chosen.

14 He is the LORD our God. His judgments are in all the earth.

He is the Lord our God: his iudgements are throughout all the earth.

15 Remember his covenant forever, the word which he commanded to a thousand generations,

Remember his couenant for euer, and the worde, which hee commanded to a thousand generations:

16 the covenant which he made with Abraham, his oath to Isaac.

Which he made with Abraham, and his othe to Izhak:

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

And hath confirmed it to Iaakob for a Law, and to Israel for an euerlasting couenant,

18 saying, "I will give you the land of Canaan, The lot of your inheritance,"

Saying, To thee will I giue 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.

When ye were fewe in number, yea, a very fewe, and strangers therein,

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

And walked about from nation to nation, and from one kingdome to another people,

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

He suffered no man to do them wrong, but rebuked Kings for their sakes, saying,

22 "Do not touch my anointed ones. Do my prophets no harm."

Touch not mine anoynted, and doe my Prophets no harme.

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

Sing vnto the Lord all the earth: declare his saluation from day to day.

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

Declare his glory among the nations, and his wonderful workes among all people.

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

For the Lord is great and much to be praised, and hee is to bee feared aboue all gods.

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

For all the gods of the people are idoles, but the Lord made the heauens.

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

Prayse and glory are before him: power and beautie are in his place.

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

Giue vnto the Lord, ye families of the people: giue vnto the Lord glory and power.

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

Giue vnto the Lord ye glory of his Name: bring an offring and come before him, and worship the Lord in the glorious Sanctuarie.

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

Tremble ye before him, al the earth: surely the world shalbe stable and not moue.

31 Let the heavens be glad, and let the earth rejoice. Let them say among the nations, "The LORD reigns."

Let the heauens reioyce, and let the earth be glad, and let them say among the nations, The Lord reigneth.

32 Let the sea roar, and its fullness. Let the field exult, and all that is in it.

Let the sea roare, and all that therein is: Let the field be ioyfull and all that is in it.

33 Then the trees of the forest will sing for joy before the LORD, for he comes to judge the earth.

Let the trees of the wood then reioyce at the presence of the Lord: for he commeth to iudge the earth.

34 Oh give thanks to the LORD, for he is good, for his loving kindness endures forever.

Prayse the Lord, for hee is good, for his mercie endureth for euer.

35 Say, "Save us, God of our salvation. Gather us together and deliver us from the nations, to give thanks to your holy name, to triumph in your praise."

And say ye, Saue vs, O God, our saluation, and gather vs, and deliuer vs from the heathen, that we may prayse thine holy Name, and glorie in thy praise.

36 Blessed be the LORD, the God of Israel, from everlasting to everlasting. And all the people said, "Amen," and praised the LORD.

Blessed be the Lord God of Israel for euer and euer: and let all people say, So be it, and praise the Lord.
