4 Seek the
Lord and His strength;
a Seek His face evermore!
‡
5 a Remember His marvelous works which He has done,
His wonders, and the judgments of His mouth,
‡
6 O seed of Abraham His servant,
You children of Jacob, His chosen ones!
7 He
is the
Lord our God;
a His judgments
are in all the earth.
‡
8 He
a remembers His covenant forever,
The word
which He commanded, for a thousand generations,
‡
9 a The covenant which He made with Abraham,
And His oath to Isaac,
‡
10 And confirmed it to Jacob for a statute,
To Israel
as an everlasting covenant,
11 Saying,
a “To you I will give the land of Canaan
As the allotment of your inheritance,”
‡
12 a When they were few in number,
Indeed very few,
b and strangers in it.
‡
13 When they went from one nation to another,
From
one kingdom to another people,
14 a He permitted no one to do them wrong;
Yes,
b He rebuked kings for their sakes,
‡
15 Saying, “Do not touch My anointed ones,
And do My prophets no harm.”
