For every beast of the forest is mine, and the cattle upon a thousand hills.
A Psalm of David. The earth is the LORD'S, and the fullness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein.
Now therefore, if ye will obey my voice indeed, and keep my covenant, then ye shall be a peculiar treasure to me above all people: for all the earth is mine:
The land shall not be sold for ever; for the land is mine, for ye are strangers and sojourners with me.
But who am I, and what is my people, that we should be able to offer so willingly after this sort? for all things come from thee, and of thy own have we given thee.
Gilead is mine, and Manasseh is mine; Ephraim also is the strength of my head; Judah is my lawgiver;
The heavens are thine, the earth also is thine: as for the world, and the fullness of it, thou hast founded them.
The silver is mine, and the gold is mine, saith the LORD of hosts.

Psalms » Of david » At the close of his reign
The Spirit of the LORD spoke by me, and his word was on my tongue. The God of Israel said, the Rock of Israel spoke to me, He that ruleth over men must be just, ruling in the fear of God. And he shall be as the light of the morning, when the sun riseth, even a morning without clouds; as the tender grass springing out of the earth by clear shining after rain. read more.
Although my house is not so with God; yet he hath made with me an everlasting covenant, ordered in all things, and sure: for this is all my salvation, and all my desire, although he maketh it not to grow. But the sons of Belial shall be all of them as thorns thrust away, because they cannot be taken with hands: But the man that shall touch them must be fenced with iron and the staff of a spear; and they shall be utterly burned with fire in the same place.
