Psalms

Psalm 22:27–31

²⁷All the ends of the earth

will remember and turn to the LORD.

All the families of the nations

will bow down before Him.

²⁸For dominion belongs to the LORD

and He rules over the nations.

²⁹All the rich of the earth will feast and worship;

all who go down to the dust will kneel before Him—

even those unable to preserve their lives.

³⁰Posterity will serve Him;

they will declare the Lord to a new generation.

³¹They will come and proclaim His righteousness

to a people yet unborn —

all that He has done.
