19 He also distributed to all the people—to the whole crowd of Israelites, both men and women—one loaf of bread, one date cake, and one raisin cake. Then all the people went home.

20 When David returned to bless his family, Saul’s daughter Michal came out to meet him. “How dignified Israel’s king was today! He was exposing himself before the eyes of the slave girls of his palace staff—like a mindless fool might expose himself!”

Psalm 96

Sing to Yahweh a new song!
    Sing to Yahweh, all the earth!
Sing to Yahweh! Praise his name!
    Day after day announce that Yahweh saves his people.
        Tell people about his glory.
        Tell all the nations about his miracles.

Yahweh is great!
    He should be highly praised.
    He should be feared more than all other gods
        because all the gods of the nations are idols.
    Yahweh made the heavens.
Splendor and majesty are in his presence.
    Strength and beauty are in his holy place.

Give to Yahweh, you families of the nations.
    Give to Yahweh glory and power.
Give to Yahweh the glory he deserves.
    Bring an offering, and come into his courtyards.
Worship Yahweh in his holy splendor.
    Tremble in his presence, all the earth!

10 Say to the nations, “Yahweh rules as king!”
    The earth stands firm; it cannot be moved.
    He will judge people fairly.
11 Let the heavens rejoice and the earth be glad.
    Let the sea and everything in it roar like thunder.
12 Let the fields and everything in them rejoice.
    Then all the trees in the forest will sing joyfully
13 in Yahweh’s presence because he is coming.
    He is coming to judge the earth.
        He will judge the world with righteousness
    and its people with his truth.

Psalm 105

Give thanks to Yahweh.
    Call on him.
    Make known among the nations what he has done.
Sing to him.
    Make music to praise him.
    Meditate on all the miracles he has performed.
Brag about his holy name.
    Let the hearts of those who seek Yahweh rejoice.
Search for Yahweh and his strength.
    Always seek his presence.
Remember the miracles he performed,
    the amazing things he did, and the judgments he pronounced,
        you descendants of his servant Abraham,
        you descendants of Jacob, his chosen ones.

He is Yahweh our Elohim.
    His judgments are pronounced throughout the earth.
He always remembers his promise,[a]
    the word that he commanded for a thousand generations,
        the promise that he made to Abraham,
            and his sworn oath to Isaac.
10 He confirmed it as a law for Jacob,
    as an everlasting promise to Israel,
11 by saying, “I will give you the land of Canaan.
    It is your share of the inheritance.”

12 While the people of Israel were few in number,
    a small group of foreigners living in that land,
13 they wandered from nation to nation,
    from one kingdom to another.
14 He didn’t permit anyone to oppress them.
    He warned kings about them:
15 “Do not touch my anointed ones
    or harm my prophets.”
