Psalms 22:30

Witness and missionServing others

28 For dominion belongs to the LORD and He rules over the nations.

29 All 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.

Posterity will serve Him; they will declare the Lord to a new generation.

31 They will come and proclaim His righteousness to a people yet unborn— all that He has done.
