23 Man goeth forth unto his work, and to his labour, until the evening.

24 O LORD, how manifold are thy works; in wisdom hast thou made them all: the earth is full of thy riches;

7 He is the LORD our God; his judgments are in all the earth.

8 He has remembered his covenant for ever, the word which he commanded to a thousand generations:

9 Which covenant he made with Abraham, and his oath unto Isaac;

10 And confirmed the same unto Jacob for a law, and to Israel for an everlasting covenant;

11 Saying, Unto thee will I give the land of Canaan, the lot of your inheritance.

12 When they were but a few men in number; yea, very few, and strangers in it.
