18

Sayingh559, " aTo you I will giveh5414 the landh776 of Canaanh3667a, As the portionh2256a of your inheritanceh5159."

20

And they wanderedh1980 about from nationh1471 to nationh1471, And from one kingdomh4467 to anotherh312 peopleh5971a,

21

He permittedh5117 noh3808 manh376 to oppressh6231 them, And  aHe reprovedh3198 kingsh4428 for their sakesh5921, saying,

22

"Do not touchh5060 My anointedh4899 onesh4899, And  adoh7489a My prophetsh5030 noh408 harmh7489a."

For allh3605 the godsh430 of the peoplesh5971a are  1 aidolsh457,  bBut the LORDh3068 madeh6213a the heavensh8064.

27

28

Ascribeh3051 to the LORDh3068, O familiesh4940 of the peoplesh5971a, Ascribeh3051 to the LORDh3068 gloryh3519b and strengthh5797.

 aLet the heavensh8064 be gladh8055, and let the earthh776 rejoiceh1523; And let them sayh559 among the nationsh1471, " bThe LORDh3068 reignsh4427a."

32

 aLet the seah3220  1roarh7481, and  2allh4393 it containsh4393; Let the fieldh7704 exulth5970, and allh3605 that is in it.

33

Thenh227 the treesh6086 of the foresth3293a will singh7442 for joyh7442 beforeh4480h6440 the LORDh3068; For He is comingh935 to judgeh8199 the earthh776.

34

 aO giveh3034 thanksh3034 to the LORDh3068, for He is goodh2896a; For His lovingkindnessh2617a is everlastingh5769.
