28 Give unto the Lord, ye kindreds of the people, give unto the Lord glory and strength.
28 Ascribe to the Lord, all you families of nations, ascribe to the Lord glory and strength.
28 Ascribe to the Lord, O clans of the peoples, ascribe to the Lord glory and strength!
28 Shout Bravo! to God, families of the peoples, in awe of the Glory, in awe of the Strength: Bravo!
28 Give to the Lord, O families of the peoples, Give to the Lord glory and strength.
28 OÂ nations of the world, recognize the Lord, recognize that the Lord is glorious and strong.
Matthew Henry's Commentary on 1 Chronicles 16:28
Commentary on 1 Chronicles 16:7-36
(Read 1 Chronicles 16:7-36)
Let God be glorified in our praises. Let others be edified and taught, that strangers to him may be led to adore him. Let us ourselves triumph and trust in God. Those that give glory to God's name are allowed to glory in it. Let the everlasting covenant be the great matter of our joy his people of old, be remembered by us with thankfulness to him. Show forth from day to day his salvation, his promised salvation by Christ. We have reason to celebrate that from day to day; for we daily receive the benefit, and it is a subject that can never be exhausted. In the midst of praises, we must not forget to pray for the servants of God in distress.
