"Now therefore, our God, we thank thee, and praise thy glorious name." — 1 Chronicles 29:13 (ASV)

Now therefore, our God, we thank you.And now, our God, we are thanking you, and praising (participles in the Hebrew). Môdîm, “thanking,” occurs nowhere else, though the verb is common in other forms.

Your glorious name.The name of your glory: here only. (Compare to Isaiah 63:14, and Psalms 72:19.)
