    let the hearts of those who seek the LORD rejoice!
11   Seek the LORD and his strength;
    seek his presence continually!

15   Remember his covenant forever,
    the word that he commanded, for a thousand generations,
16   the covenant that he made with Abraham,

18   saying, “To you I will give the land of Canaan,
    as your portion for an inheritance.”

    strength and joy are in his place.
28   Ascribe to the LORD, O families of the peoples,
    ascribe to the LORD glory and strength!
29   Ascribe to the LORD the glory due his name;
    bring an offering and come before him!
  Worship the LORD in the splendor of holiness;
30     tremble before him, all the earth;
    yes, the world is established; it shall never be moved.
31   Let the heavens be glad, and let the earth rejoice,
    and let them say among the nations, “The LORD reigns!”
32   Let the sea roar, and all that fills it;
    let the field exult, and everything in it!
33   Then shall the trees of the forest sing for joy
    before the LORD, for he comes to judge the earth.

    for his steadfast love endures forever!

    from everlasting to everlasting!”
