8 He hath ben mindfull alwayes of his couenaunt (for he promised a worde to a thousande generations:) 9 euen of his couenaunt that he made with Abraham, and of his othe vnto Isaac. 10 And he appointed the same vnto Iacob for a law: and to Israel for an euerlasting couenaunt. 11 Saying, vnto thee I wyll geue the lande of Chanaan: the lot of your inheritaunce. 12 When they were a fewe men in number, and had ben straungers but a litle whyle in it: 13 and when they went from one nation to another, from one kingdome to another people. 14 He suffred no man to do them wrong: yea he reproued euen kynges for their sakes. 15 Touche not mine annoynted: and triumph not ouer my prophetes. 16 Moreouer he called for a famine vpon the lande: and he made all maner of foode to fayle. 17 But he had sent a man before them: euen Ioseph, who was solde to be a bonde seruaunt.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

He hath remembered his covenant for ever,.... Another argument of praise taken from the covenant of grace, in which he is our God, and of which he is ever mindful; he remembers his covenant ones, whom he perfectly knows, and never forgets them; he remembers his covenant promises to them, and allows them to put him in remembrance of them; he has respect unto his covenant, and the blessings of it, and bestows them on his people; gives them the sure mercies of David; and he remembers his love, which is the source and spring of all.

The word which he commanded to a thousand generations; that which is properly a covenant with Christ our head on our account, is a word of promise to us; a promise of grace and glory; a free promise, absolute and unconditional: and this he has "commanded", or ordered, decreed, and determined that it shall stand good, and be punctually performed, "to a thousand generations"; that is, for ever; for all his promises are yea and amen in Christ.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

He hath remembered his covenant forever - That is, God has had it constantly in remembrance, or always. Compare the notes at Luke 1:72. Though the covenant was made long since; though many generations of people have passed by; though great changes have occurred; though many calamities have come upon the nations, yet his ancient covenant and promise have never been forgotten. All his promises have been fulfilled; all ever will be. The “covenant” here referred to is that which was made with Abraham, and through him with the Hebrew people.

The word which he commanded - The thing which he commanded; that is, all which he ordained and appointed.

To a thousand generations - Very many generations; or, any number of generations: that is, always. Compare Exodus 20:6. The experience of the people through all the generations of their history has shown that in what he has promised and directed he is unchanging.
