Chapter 16
8Give thanks to the Lord, call upon His name; Make His deeds known among the peoples. 9Sing to Him, sing praises to Him; Speak of all His wonders. 10Boast in His holy name; Let the heart of those who seek the Lord be joyful. 11Seek the Lord and His strength; Seek His face continually. 12Remember His wonderful deeds which He has done, His marvels and the judgments from His mouth, 13 You descendants of Israel His servant, Sons of Jacob, His chosen ones! 14He is the Lord our God; His judgments are in all the earth. 15Remember His covenant forever, The word which He commanded to a thousand generations, 16 The covenant which He made with Abraham, And His oath to Isaac. 17He also confirmed it to Jacob as a statute, To Israel as an everlasting covenant, 18Saying, 'To you I will give the land of Canaan, As the portion of your inheritance.' 19When they were only a few in number, Very few, and strangers in it, 20And they wandered from nation to nation, And from one kingdom to another people,King James Version
