1 CHRONICLES 16:19 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“When ye were but few, even a few, and strangers in it.”
When they were few in number, of little account, and strangers in it — psalm recalls Israel's wilderness and patriarchal humility. Hebrew 'melammedim' (few) and 'gar' (stranger) emphasize weakness and vulnerability. God's covenant favored powerless; election based on divine grace.
