1 Chronicles 16:19 · BSB
The verses around it, from 1 Chronicles 16.
15 Remember His covenant forever, the word He ordained for a thousand generations—
16 the covenant He made with Abraham, and the oath He swore to Isaac.
17 He confirmed it to Jacob as a decree, to Israel as an everlasting covenant:
18 ‘I will give you the land of Canaan as the portion of your inheritance.’
19 When they were few in number, few indeed, and strangers in the land,
20 they wandered from nation to nation, from one kingdom to another.
21 He let no man oppress them; He rebuked kings on their behalf:
22 ‘Do not touch My anointed ones! Do no harm to My prophets!’
23 Sing to the LORD, all the earth. Proclaim His salvation day after day.
