Tell of His Wonders

1 Chronicles 16:7–22

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