Tell of His Wonders

1 Chronicles 16:7–22

1Give thanks to Yahweh! Call on his name! Make his doings known among the peoples.+ 2Sing to him, sing praises to him! Tell of all his marvelous works.+ 3Glory in his holy name. Let the heart of those who seek Yahweh rejoice.+ 4Seek Yahweh and his strength. Seek his face forever more.+ 5Remember his marvelous works that he has done; his wonders, and the judgments of his mouth,+ 6you offspring of Abraham, his servant, you children of Jacob, his chosen ones.+ 7He is Yahweh, our God. His judgments are in all the earth.+ 8He has remembered his covenant forever, the word which he commanded to a thousand generations,+ 9the covenant which he made with Abraham, his oath to Isaac,+ 10and confirmed the same to Jacob for a statute; to Israel for an everlasting covenant,+ 11saying, “To you I will give the land of Canaan, the lot of your inheritance”;+ 12when they were but a few men in number, yes, very few, and foreigners in it.+ 13They went about from nation to nation, from one kingdom to another people.+ 14He 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!”+ 16He called for a famine on the land. He destroyed the food supplies.+ 17He sent a man before them. Joseph was sold for a slave.+ 18They bruised his feet with shackles. His neck was locked in irons,+ 19until the time that his word happened, and Yahweh’s word proved him true.+ 20The king sent and freed him; even the ruler of peoples, and let him go free.+ 21He made him lord of his house, and ruler of all of his possessions;+ 22to discipline his princes at his pleasure, and to teach his elders wisdom.+ 23Israel also came into Egypt. Jacob lived in the land of Ham.+ 24He increased his people greatly, and made them stronger than their adversaries.+ 25He turned their heart to hate his people, to conspire against his servants.+ 26He sent Moses, his servant, and Aaron, whom he had chosen.+ 27They performed miracles among them, and wonders in the land of Ham.+ 28He sent darkness, and made it dark. They didn’t rebel against his words.+ 29He turned their waters into blood, and killed their fish.+ 30Their land swarmed with frogs, even in the rooms of their kings.+ 31He spoke, and swarms of flies came, and lice in all their borders.+ 32He gave them hail for rain, with lightning in their land.+ 33He struck their vines and also their fig trees, and shattered the trees of their country.+ 34He spoke, and the locusts came, and the grasshoppers, without number,+ 35ate up every plant in their land; and ate up the fruit of their ground.+ 36He struck also all the firstborn in their land, the first fruits of all their manhood.+ 37He brought them out with silver and gold. There was not one feeble person among his tribes.+ 38Egypt was glad when they departed, for the fear of them had fallen on them.+ 39He spread a cloud for a covering, fire to give light in the night.+ 40They asked, and he brought quails, and satisfied them with the bread of the sky.+ 41He opened the rock, and waters gushed out. They ran as a river in the dry places.+ 42For he remembered his holy word, and Abraham, his servant.+ 43He brought his people out with joy, his chosen with singing.+ 44He gave them the lands of the nations. They took the labor of the peoples in possession,+ 45that they might keep his statutes, and observe his laws. Praise Yah!+
