1 Chronicles 16:23-40 American Standard Version (ASV)

23. Sing unto Jehovah, all the earth; Show forth his salvation from day to day.

24. Declare his glory among the nations, His marvellous works among all the peoples.

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

26. For all the gods of the peoples are idols: But Jehovah made the heavens.

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

28. Ascribe unto Jehovah, ye kindreds of the peoples, Ascribe unto Jehovah glory and strength;

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

30. Tremble before him, all the earth: The world also is established that it cannot be moved.

31. Let the heavens be glad, and let the earth rejoice; And let them say among the nations, Jehovah reigneth.

32. Let the sea roar, and the fulness thereof; Let the field exult, and all that is therein;

33. Then shall the trees of the wood sing for joy before Jehovah; For he cometh to judge the earth.

34. O give thanks unto Jehovah; for he is good; For his lovingkindness endureth for ever.

36. Blessed be Jehovah, the God of Israel, From everlasting even to everlasting.

38. and Obed-edom with their brethren, threescore and eight; Obed-edom also the son of Jeduthun and Hosah to be doorkeepers;

39. and Zadok the priest, and his brethren the priests, before the tabernacle of Jehovah in the high place that was at Gibeon,

40. to offer burnt-offerings unto Jehovah upon the altar of burnt-offering continually morning and evening, even according to all that is written in the law of Jehovah, which he commanded unto Israel;
