Exodus 13:8

8 ^aYou shall tell your son on that day, ‘It is because of what the Lord did for me when I came out of Egypt.’

Exodus 13:14-17

14 ^bAnd when in time to come your son asks you, ‘What does this mean?’ you shall say to him, ^c‘By a strong hand the Lord brought us out of Egypt, from the house of ^dslavery. 15 For when Pharaoh stubbornly refused to let us go, the ^eLord killed all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, both the firstborn of man and the firstborn of animals. Therefore I sacrifice to the Lord all the males that first open the womb, but ^fall the firstborn of my sons I redeem.’ 16 ^gIt shall be as a mark on your hand or frontlets between your eyes, for ^hby a strong hand the Lord brought us out of Egypt.”

Pillars of Cloud and Fire

17 When Pharaoh let the people go, God did ⁱnot lead them by way of the land of the Philistines, although that was near. For God said, “Lest the people ^jchange their minds when they see war and return to Egypt.”

1 Chronicles 29:10-30

David Prays in the Assembly

10 Therefore David blessed the Lord in the presence of all the assembly. And David said: ^k“Blessed are you, O Lord, the God of Israel our father, forever and ever. 11 ^lYours, O Lord, is the greatness and the power and the glory and the victory and the majesty, for all that is in the heavens and in the earth is yours. Yours is the kingdom, O Lord, and you are exalted as head above all. 12 ^mBoth riches and honor come from you, and you rule over all. ⁿIn your hand are power and might, and in your hand it is to make great and to give strength to all. 13 And now we thank you, our God, and praise your glorious name.

14 “But who am I, and what is my people, that we should be able thus to offer willingly? For all things come from you, and of your own have we given you. 15 ^oFor we are strangers before you and sojourners, as all our fathers were. Our days on the earth are ^plike a shadow, and there is no abiding. ^{▼▼Septuagint, Vulgate; Hebrew hope, or prospect} 16 O Lord our God, all this abundance that we have provided for building you a house for your holy name comes from your hand and is all your own. 17 I know, my God, ^rthat you test the heart and ^shave pleasure in uprightness. In the uprightness of my heart I have freely offered all these things, and now I have seen your people, who are present here, offering freely and joyously to you. 18 O Lord, the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, our fathers, keep forever such purposes and thoughts in the hearts of your people, and direct their hearts toward you. 19 ^tGrant to Solomon my son a whole heart that he may keep your commandments, your testimonies, and your statutes, performing all, and that he may ^ubuild the palace ^vfor which I have made provision.”

20 Then David said to all the assembly, ^w“Bless the Lord your God.” And all the assembly blessed the Lord, the God of their fathers, ^xand bowed their heads and paid homage to the Lord and to the king. 21 And they offered sacrifices to the Lord, and on the next day offered burnt offerings to the Lord, 1,000 bulls, 1,000 rams, and 1,000 lambs, with their ^ydrink offerings, and sacrifices in abundance for all Israel. 22 And they ate and drank before the Lord on that day with great gladness.

Solomon Anointed King

And they made Solomon the son of David king ^zthe second time, and they ^aaanointed him as prince for the Lord, and ^abZadok as priest.

23 ^acThen Solomon sat on the ^adthrone of the Lord as king in place of David his father. And he prospered, and all Israel obeyed him. 24 All the leaders and the mighty men, and also all the sons of King David, pledged their allegiance to King Solomon. 25 And the Lord made Solomon very ^aegreat in the sight of all Israel and ^afbestowed on him such royal majesty as had not been on any king before him in Israel.

The Death of David

26 Thus David the son of Jesse reigned over all Israel. 27 The ^agtime that he reigned over Israel was forty years. He reigned seven years in Hebron and thirty-three years in Jerusalem. 28 Then he died ^ahat a good age, ^aifull of days, riches, and honor. And Solomon his son reigned in his place. 29 Now the acts of King David, from first to last, are written in the Chronicles ^ajof Samuel the seer, and in the Chronicles of ^akNathan the prophet, and in the Chronicles of ^alGad the seer, 30 with accounts of all his rule and his might and of the circumstances ^amthat came upon him and upon Israel and upon all the kingdoms of the countries.

Psalms 78:4

4 We will not ^anhide them from their children,
but ^aotell to the coming generation
the glorious deeds of the Lord, and his might,
and ^apthe wonders that he has done.

Psalms 78:6

6 that ^aqthe next generation might know them,
the children yet unborn,
and arise and tell them to their children,

Psalms 145:4-5

4 ^arOne generation shall commend your works to another,
and shall declare your mighty acts.
5 On ^asthe glorious splendor of your majesty,
and on your wondrous works, I will meditate.

Acts 13:36

36 For David, after he had ^atserved the purpose of God in his own generation, ^aufell asleep and ^avwas laid with his fathers and saw corruption,
