23. Sing unto the LORD, all the earth; shew forth from day to day his salvation. 24. Declare his glory among the heathen; his marvellous works among all nations. 25. For great [is] the LORD, and greatly to be praised: he also [is] to be feared above all gods. 26. For all the gods of the people [are] idols: but the LORD made the heavens. 27. Glory and honour [are] in his presence; strength and gladness [are] in his place. 28. Give unto the LORD, ye kindreds of the people, give unto the LORD glory and strength. 29. Give unto the LORD the glory [due] unto his name: bring an offering, and come before him: worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness. 30. Fear before him, all the earth: the world also shall be stable, that it be not moved. 31. Let the heavens be glad, and let the earth rejoice: and let [men] say among the nations, The LORD reigneth. 32. Let the sea roar, and the fulness thereof: let the fields rejoice, and all that [is] therein. 33. Then shall the trees of the wood sing out at the presence of the LORD, because he cometh to judge the earth.

Commentary on 1 Chronicles 16:23

Theological / Devotional

All the earth. All the world receives blessings from God and is honor bound to return glory to God. As men sing praises to God they bring joy to themselves and peace and good will to the peoples of the earth. Man does the greatest injustice to himself and to the world in which he lives when he fails to raise his voice in joyous praise to God for the manifold blessings of heaven.
