1 Chronicles 29:10-12

David Praises the Lord

29:10 David praised the Lord before the entire assembly: ¹ 

“O Lord God of our father Israel, you deserve praise forevermore! 29:11 O Lord, you are great, mighty, majestic, magnificent, glorious, and sovereign ²  over all the sky and earth! You have dominion and exalt yourself as the ruler ³  of all. 29:12 You are the source of wealth and honor; ⁴  you rule over all. You possess strength and might to magnify and give strength to all. ⁵ 

[29:10]  ¹ tn Heb “assembly, and David said.” The words “and David said” are redundant according to contemporary English style and have not been included in the translation.

[29:11]  ² tn The words “and sovereign” are added in the translation for clarification and for stylistic reasons.

[29:11]  ³ tn Heb “head.”

[29:12]  ⁴ tn Heb “wealth and honor [are] from before you.”

[29:12]  ⁵ tn Heb “and in your hand [is] strength and might and in your hand to magnify and to give strength to all.”
