1 Chronicles 16

¹And they brought in the ark of God, and set it in the midst of the tent that David had pitched for it: and they offered burnt-offerings and peace-offerings before God.

²And when David had made an end of offering the burnt-offering and the peace-offerings, he blessed the people in the name of Jehovah.

³And he dealt to every one of Israel, both man and woman, to every one a loaf of bread, and a portion of flesh, and a cake of raisins.

⁴And he appointed certain of the Levites to minister before the ark of Jehovah, and to celebrate and to thank and praise Jehovah, the God of Israel:

⁵Asaph the chief, and second to him Zechariah, Jeiel, and Shemiramoth, and Jehiel, and Mattithiah, and Eliab, and Benaiah, and Obed-edom, and Jeiel, with psalteries and with harps; and Asaph with cymbals, sounding aloud;

⁶and Benaiah and Jahaziel the priests with trumpets continually, before the ark of the covenant of God.

⁷Then on that day did David first ordain to give thanks unto Jehovah, by the hand of Asaph and his brethren.

⁸O give thanks unto Jehovah, call upon his name; Make known his doings among the peoples.

⁹Sing unto him, sing praises unto him; Talk ye of all his marvellous works.

¹⁰Glory ye in his holy name; Let the heart of them rejoice that seek Jehovah.

¹¹Seek ye Jehovah and his strength; Seek his face evermore.

¹²Remember his marvellous works that he hath done, His wonders, and the judgments of his mouth,
