This verse returns to thanksgiving. 'I will declare for ever' and 'I will sing praises' express an unending commitment to praise. The object is specifically 'the God of Jacob'—the God of covenant and protection. The psalmist's praise is grounded in recognition of God's just nature and proven faithfulness.
