So they brought{H935}{(H8686)} the ark{H727} of God{H430}, and set{H3322}{(H8686)} it in the midst{H8432} of the tent{H168} that David{H1732} had pitched{H5186}{(H8804)} for it: and they offered{H7126}{(H8686)} burnt sacrifices{H5930} and peace offerings{H8002} before{H6440} God{H430}.

And when David{H1732} had made an end{H3615}{(H8762)} of offering{H5927}{(H8687)} the burnt offerings{H5930} and the peace offerings{H8002}, he blessed{H1288}{(H8762)} the people{H5971} in the name{H8034} of the LORD{H3068}.

And he dealt{H2505}{(H8762)} to every one{H376} of Israel{H3478}, both man{H376} and woman{H802}, to every one{H376} a loaf{H3603} of bread{H3899}, and a good piece of flesh{H829}, and a flagon{H809} of wine.

And he appointed{H5414}{(H8799)} certain of the Levites{H3881} to minister{H8334}{(H8764)} before{H6440} the ark{H727} of the LORD{H3068}, and to record{H2142}{(H8687)}, and to thank{H3034}{(H8687)} and praise{H1984}{(H8763)} the LORD{H3068} God{H430} of Israel{H3478}:

Asaph{H623} the chief{H7218}, and next{H4932} to him Zechariah{H2148}, Jeiel{H3273}, and Shemiramoth{H8070}, and Jehiel{H3171}, and Mattithiah{H4993}, and Eliab{H446}, and Benaiah{H1141}, and Obededom{H5654}: and Jeiel{H3273} with psalteries{H5035}{H3627} and with harps{H3658}; but Asaph{H623} made a sound{H8085}{(H8688)} with cymbals{H4700};

Benaiah{H1141} also and Jahaziel{H3166} the priests{H3548} with trumpets{H2689} continually{H8548} before{H6440} the ark{H727} of the covenant{H1285} of God{H430}.

Then on that day{H3117} David{H1732} delivered{H5414}{(H8804)} first{H7218} this psalm to thank{H3034}{(H8687)} the LORD{H3068} into the hand{H3027} of Asaph{H623} and his brethren{H251}.

Give thanks{H3034}{(H8685)} unto the LORD{H3068}, call{H7121}{(H8798)} upon his name{H8034}, make known{H3045}{(H8685)} his deeds{H5949} among the people{H5971}.

Sing{H7891}{(H8798)} unto him, sing psalms{H2167}{(H8761)} unto him, talk{H7878}{(H8798)} ye of all his wondrous{H6381}{(H8737)} works.

Glory{H1984}{(H8690)} ye in his holy{H6944} name{H8034}: let the heart{H3820} of them rejoice{H8055}{(H8799)} that seek{H1245}{(H8764)} the LORD{H3068}.

Seek{H1875}{(H8798)} the LORD{H3068} and his strength{H5797}, seek{H1245}{(H8761)} his face{H6440} continually{H8548}.

Remember{H2142}{(H8798)} his marvellous{H6381}{(H8737)} works that he hath done{H6213}{(H8804)}, his wonders{H4159}, and the judgments{H4941} of his mouth{H6310};

O ye seed{H2233} of Israel{H3478} his servant{H5650}, ye children{H1121} of Jacob{H3290}, his chosen ones{H972}.

He is the LORD{H3068} our God{H430}; his judgments{H4941} are in all the earth{H776}.

Be ye mindful{H2142}{(H8798)} always{H5769} of his covenant{H1285}; the word{H1697} which he commanded{H6680}{(H8765)} to a thousand{H505} generations{H1755};

Even of the covenant which he made{H3772}{(H8804)} with Abraham{H85}, and of his oath{H7621} unto Isaac{H3327};

And hath confirmed{H5975}{(H8686)} the same to Jacob{H3290} for a law{H2706}, and to Israel{H3478} for an everlasting{H5769} covenant{H1285},

Saying{H559}{(H8800)}, Unto thee will I give{H5414}{(H8799)} the land{H776} of Canaan{H3667}, the lot{H2256} of your inheritance{H5159};

When ye were but few{H4557}{H4962}, even a few{H4592}, and strangers{H1481}{(H8802)} in it.

And when they went{H1980}{(H8691)} from nation{H1471} to nation{H1471}, and from one kingdom{H4467} to another{H312} people{H5971};

He suffered{H3240}{(H8689)} no man{H376} to do them wrong{H6231}{(H8800)}: yea, he reproved{H3198}{(H8686)} kings{H4428} for their sakes,

Saying, Touch{H5060}{(H8799)} not mine anointed{H4899}, and do my prophets{H5030} no harm{H7489}{(H8686)}.

Sing{H7891}{(H8798)} unto the LORD{H3068}, all the earth{H776}; shew forth{H1319}{(H8761)} from day{H3117} to day{H3117} his salvation{H3444}.

Declare{H5608}{(H8761)} his glory{H3519} among the heathen{H1471}; his marvellous works{H6381}{(H8737)} among all nations{H5971}.

For great{H1419} is the LORD{H3068}, and greatly{H3966} to be praised{H1984}{(H8794)}: he also is to be feared{H3372}{(H8737)} above all gods{H430}.

For all the gods{H430} of the people{H5971} are idols{H457}: but the LORD{H3068} made{H6213}{(H8804)} the heavens{H8064}.

Glory{H1935} and honour{H1926} are in his presence{H6440}; strength{H5797} and gladness{H2304} are in his place{H4725}.

Give{H3051}{(H8798)} unto the LORD{H3068}, ye kindreds{H4940} of the people{H5971}, give{H3051}{(H8798)} unto the LORD{H3068} glory{H3519} and strength{H5797}.

Give{H3051}{(H8798)} unto the LORD{H3068} the glory{H3519} due unto his name{H8034}: bring{H5375}{(H8798)} an offering{H4503}, and come{H935}{(H8798)} before{H6440} him: worship{H7812}{(H8690)} the LORD{H3068} in the beauty{H1927} of holiness{H6944}.

Fear{H2342}{(H8798)} before{H6440} him, all the earth{H776}: the world{H8398} also shall be stable{H3559}{(H8735)}, that it be not moved{H4131}{(H8735)}.

Let the heavens{H8064} be glad{H8055}{(H8799)}, and let the earth{H776} rejoice{H1523}{(H8799)}: and let men say{H559}{(H8799)} among the nations{H1471}, The LORD{H3068} reigneth{H4427}{(H8804)}.

Let the sea{H3220} roar{H7481}{(H8799)}, and the fulness{H4393} thereof: let the fields{H7704} rejoice{H5970}{(H8799)}, and all that is therein.

Then shall the trees{H6086} of the wood{H3293} sing out{H7442}{(H8762)} at the presence{H6440} of the LORD{H3068}, because he cometh{H935}{(H8804)} to judge{H8199}{(H8800)} the earth{H776}.

O give thanks{H3034}{(H8685)} unto the LORD{H3068}; for he is good{H2896}; for his mercy{H2617} endureth for ever{H5769}.

And say{H559}{(H8798)} ye, Save{H3467}{(H8685)} us, O God{H430} of our salvation{H3468}, and gather us together{H6908}{(H8761)}, and deliver{H5337}{(H8685)} us from the heathen{H1471}, that we may give thanks{H3034}{(H8687)} to thy holy{H6944} name{H8034}, and glory{H7623}{(H8692)} in thy praise{H8416}.

Blessed{H1288}{(H8803)} be the LORD{H3068} God{H430} of Israel{H3478} for ever{H5769} and ever{H5769}. And all the people{H5971} said{H559}{(H8799)}, Amen{H543}, and praised{H1984}{(H8763)} the LORD{H3068}.

So he left{H5800}{(H8799)} there before{H6440} the ark{H727} of the covenant{H1285} of the LORD{H3068} Asaph{H623} and his brethren{H251}, to minister{H8334}{(H8763)} before{H6440} the ark{H727} continually{H8548}, as every day's{H3117} work{H1697} required{H3117}:

And Obededom{H5654} with their brethren{H251}, threescore{H8346} and eight{H8083}; Obededom{H5654} also the son{H1121} of Jeduthun{H3038} and Hosah{H2621} to be porters{H7778}:

And Zadok{H6659} the priest{H3548}, and his brethren{H251} the priests{H3548}, before{H6440} the tabernacle{H4908} of the LORD{H3068} in the high place{H1116} that was at Gibeon{H1391},

To offer{H5927}{(H8687)} burnt offerings{H5930} unto the LORD{H3068} upon the altar{H4196} of the burnt offering{H5930} continually{H8548} morning{H1242} and evening{H6153}, and to do according to all that is written{H3789}{(H8803)} in the law{H8451} of the LORD{H3068}, which he commanded{H6680}{(H8765)} Israel{H3478};

And with them Heman{H1968} and Jeduthun{H3038}, and the rest{H7605} that were chosen{H1305}{(H8803)}, who were expressed{H5344}{(H8738)} by name{H8034}, to give thanks{H3034}{(H8687)} to the LORD{H3068}, because his mercy{H2617} endureth for ever{H5769};

And with them Heman{H1968} and Jeduthun{H3038} with trumpets{H2689} and cymbals{H4700} for those that should make a sound{H8085}{(H8688)}, and with musical{H7892} instruments{H3627} of God{H430}. And the sons{H1121} of Jeduthun{H3038} were porters{H8179}.

And all the people{H5971} departed{H3212}{(H8799)} every man{H376} to his house{H1004}: and David{H1732} returned{H5437}{(H8735)} to bless{H1288}{(H8763)} his house{H1004}.
