1 Chronicles 16:20

Verse 20 of 43. The 16th of 29 chapters in 1 Chronicles, in History.

16the covenant which he made with Abraham, his oath to Isaac.

17He confirmed it to Jacob for a statute, and to Israel for an everlasting covenant,

18saying, “I will give you the land of Canaan, The lot of your inheritance,”

19when you were but a few men in number, yes, very few, and foreigners in it.

20They went about from nation to nation, from one kingdom to another people.

21He allowed no man to do them wrong. Yes, he reproved kings for their sakes,

22“Don’t touch my anointed ones! Do my prophets no harm!”

23Sing to the LORD, all the earth! Display his salvation from day to day.

24Declare his glory among the nations, and his marvelous works among all the peoples.
