1 Chronicles 16:28
26 For all the gods of the nations are idols, but it is the LORD who made the heavens.
27 Splendor and majesty are before Him; strength and joy fill His dwelling.
Ascribe to the LORD, O families of the nations, ascribe to the LORD glory and strength.
29 Ascribe to the LORD the glory due His name; bring an offering and come before Him. Worship the LORD in the splendor of His holiness;
30 tremble before Him, all the earth. The world is firmly established; it cannot be moved.
Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
