New King James Version

1 Chronicles 16:18-27 New King James Version (NKJV)

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

19. When you were few 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 rebuked kings for their sakes,

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

23. Sing 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 of the peoples are idols,But the Lord made the heavens.

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