David’s Song of Thanksgiving

7 On that day ^aDavid ^bfirst delivered this psalm into the hand of Asaph and his brethren, to thank the Lord:

8 ^aOh, give thanks to the Lord!
Call upon His name;
Make known His deeds among the peoples!

9 Sing to Him, sing psalms to Him;
Talk of all His wondrous works!

10 Glory in His holy name;
Let the hearts of those rejoice who seek the Lord!

11 Seek the Lord and His strength;
Seek His face evermore!

12 Remember His marvelous works which He has done,
His wonders, and the judgments of His mouth,

13 O seed of Israel His servant,
You children of Jacob, His chosen ones!

14 He is the Lord our God;
His ^ajudgments are in all the earth.

15 Remember His covenant forever,
The word which He commanded, for a thousand generations,

16 The ^acovenant which He made with Abraham,
And His oath to Isaac,

17 And ^aconfirmed it to ^bJacob for a statute,
To Israel for an everlasting covenant,

18 Saying, “To you I will give the land of Canaan
As the allotment of your inheritance,”

19 When you were ^afew in number,
Indeed very few, and strangers in it.

20 When they went from one nation to another,
And from one kingdom to another people,

21 He permitted no man to do them wrong;
Yes, He ^arebuked kings for their sakes,

22 Saying, ^a“Do not touch My anointed ones,
And do My prophets no harm.”

23 ^aSing to the Lord, all the earth;
Proclaim the good news of His salvation from day to day.

24 Declare His glory among the nations,
His wonders among all peoples.

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

26 For all the gods ^aof the peoples are idols,
But the Lord made the heavens.

27 Honor and majesty are before Him;
Strength and gladness are in His place.

28 Give to the Lord, O families of the peoples,
Give to the Lord glory and strength.

29 Give to the Lord the glory due His name;
Bring an offering, and come before Him.
Oh, worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness!

30 Tremble before Him, all the earth.
The world also is firmly established,
It shall not be moved.

31 Let the heavens rejoice, and let the earth be glad;
And let them say among the nations, “The Lord reigns.”

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

33 Then the ^atrees of the woods shall rejoice before the Lord,
For He is ^bcoming to judge the earth.

34 ^aOh, give thanks to the Lord, for He is good!
For His mercy endures forever.

35 ^aAnd say, “Save us, O God of our salvation;
Gather us together, and deliver us from the Gentiles,
To give thanks to Your holy name,
To triumph in Your praise.”

36 ^aBlessed be the Lord God of Israel
From everlasting to everlasting! And all ^bthe people said, “Amen!” and praised the Lord.

38 and ^aObed-Edom with his sixty-eight brethren, including Obed-Edom the son of Jeduthun, and Hosah, to be gatekeepers;

39 and Zadok the priest and his brethren the priests, ^abefore the tabernacle of the Lord ^bat the high place that was at Gibeon,
