Tell of his wonders

(1 Chronicles 16:7-22)
1
Give thanks to the LORD, call upon His name; make known His deeds among the nations.
2
Sing to Him, sing praises to Him; tell of all His wonders.
3
Glory in His holy name; let the hearts of those who seek the LORD rejoice.
4
Seek out the LORD and His strength; seek His face always.
5
Remember the wonders He has done, His marvels, and the judgments He has pronounced,
6
O offspring of His servant Abraham, O sons of Jacob, His chosen ones.
7
He is the LORD our God; His judgments carry throughout the earth.
8
He remembers His covenant forever, the word He ordained for a thousand generations
9
the covenant He made with Abraham, and the oath He swore to Isaac.
10
He confirmed it to Jacob as a decree, to Israel as an everlasting covenant:
11
I will give you the land of Canaan as the portion of your inheritance.”
12
When they were few in number, few indeed, and strangers in the land,
13
they wandered from nation to nation, from one kingdom to another.
14
He let no man oppress them; He rebuked kings on their behalf:
15
Do not touch My anointed ones! Do no harm to My prophets!”
16
He called down famine on the land and cut off all their supplies (a) of food.
17
He sent a man before them Joseph, sold as a slave.
18
They bruised his feet with shackles and placed his neck in irons,
19
until his prediction came true and the word of the LORD proved him right.
20
The king sent and released him; the ruler of peoples set him free.
21
He made him master of his household, ruler over all his substance,
22
to instruct (b) his princes as he pleased and teach his elders wisdom.
23
Then Israel entered Egypt; Jacob dwelt in the land of Ham.
24
And the LORD made His people very fruitful, more numerous than their foes,
25
whose hearts He turned to hate His people, to conspire against His servants.
26
He sent Moses His servant, and Aaron, whom He had chosen.
27
They performed His miraculous signs among them, and wonders in the land of Ham.
28
He sent darkness, and it became dark yet they defied His words.(c)
29
He turned their waters to blood and caused their fish to die.
30
Their land teemed with frogs, even in their royal chambers.
31
He spoke, and insects swarmed— gnats throughout their country.
32
He gave them hail for rain, with lightning throughout their land.
33
He struck their vines and fig trees and shattered the trees of their country.
34
He spoke, and the locusts came— young locusts without number.
35
They devoured every plant in their land and consumed the produce of their soil.
36
Then He struck all the firstborn in their land, the firstfruits of all their vigor.
37
He brought Israel out with silver and gold, and none among His tribes stumbled.
38
Egypt was glad when they departed, for the dread of Israel had fallen on them.
39
He spread a cloud as a covering and a fire to light up the night.
40
They asked, and He brought quail and satisfied them with the bread of heaven.
41
He opened a rock, and water gushed out; it flowed like a river in the desert.
42
For He remembered His holy promise to Abraham His servant.
43
He brought forth His people with rejoicing, His chosen with shouts of joy.
44
He gave them the lands of the nations, that they might inherit the fruit of otherslabor,
45
that they might keep His statutes and obey His laws. Hallelujah!(d)

Tell of his wonders

(1 Chronicles 16:7-22)
1
Give thanks to the LORD! Call on his name! Make his doings known among the peoples.
2
Sing to him, sing praises to him! Tell of all his marvelous works.
3
Glory in his holy name. Let the heart of those who seek the LORD rejoice.
4
Seek the LORD and his strength. Seek his face forever more.
5
Remember his marvelous works that he has done: his wonders, and the judgments of his mouth,
6
you offspring of Abraham, his servant, you children of Jacob, his chosen ones.
7
He is the LORD, our God. His judgments are in all the earth.
8
He has remembered his covenant forever, the word which he commanded to a thousand generations,
9
the covenant which he made with Abraham, his oath to Isaac,
10
and confirmed it to Jacob for a statute; to Israel for an everlasting covenant,
11
saying, “To you I will give the land of Canaan, the lot of your inheritance,”
12
when they were but a few men in number, yes, very few, and foreigners in it.
13
They went about from nation to nation, from one kingdom to another people.
14
He allowed no one to do them wrong. Yes, he reproved kings for their sakes,
15
“Don’t touch my anointed ones! Do my prophets no harm!”
16
He called for a famine on the land. He destroyed the food supplies.
17
He sent a man before them. Joseph was sold for a slave.
18
They bruised his feet with shackles. His neck was locked in irons,
19
until the time that his word happened, and the LORD’s word proved him true.
20
The king sent and freed him, even the ruler of peoples, and let him go free.
21
He made him lord of his house, and ruler of all of his possessions,
22
to discipline his princes at his pleasure, and to teach his elders wisdom.
23
Israel also came into Egypt. Jacob lived in the land of Ham.
24
He increased his people greatly, and made them stronger than their adversaries.
25
He turned their heart to hate his people, to conspire against his servants.
26
He sent Moses, his servant, and Aaron, whom he had chosen.
27
They performed miracles among them, and wonders in the land of Ham.
28
He sent darkness, and made it dark. They didn’t rebel against his words.
29
He turned their waters into blood, and killed their fish.
30
Their land swarmed with frogs, even in the rooms of their kings.
31
He spoke, and swarms of flies came, and lice in all their borders.
32
He gave them hail for rain, with lightning in their land.
33
He struck their vines and also their fig trees, and shattered the trees of their country.
34
He spoke, and the locusts came with the grasshoppers, without number.
35
They ate up every plant in their land, and ate up the fruit of their ground.
36
He struck also all the firstborn in their land, the first fruits of all their manhood.
37
He brought them out with silver and gold. There was not one feeble person among his tribes.
38
Egypt was glad when they departed, for the fear of them had fallen on them.
39
He spread a cloud for a covering, fire to give light in the night.
40
They asked, and he brought quails, and satisfied them with the bread of the sky.
41
He opened the rock, and waters gushed out. They ran as a river in the dry places.
42
For he remembered his holy word, and Abraham, his servant.
43
He brought his people out with joy, his chosen with singing.
44
He gave them the lands of the nations. They took the labor of the peoples in possession,
45
that they might keep his statutes, and observe his laws. Praise the LORD!
