- 1 Chronicles 16:23-33
Sing to the LORD, all the earth! Display his salvation from day to day. Declare his glory amongst the nations, and his marvellous works amongst all the peoples. For great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised. He also is to be feared above all gods. For all the gods of the peoples are idols, but the LORD made the heavens. Honour and majesty are before him. Strength and gladness are in his place. Ascribe to the LORD, you families of the peoples, ascribe to the LORD glory and strength! Ascribe to the LORD the glory due to his name. Bring an offering, and come before him. Worship the LORD in holy array. Tremble before him, all the earth. The world also is established that it can’t be moved. Let the heavens be glad, and let the earth rejoice! Let them say amongst the nations, “The LORD reigns!” Let the sea roar, and its fullness! Let the field exult, and all that is in it! Then the trees of the forest will sing for joy before the LORD, for he comes to judge the earth.
