1 And so they took the ark of God, and they set it in the midst of the tabernacle, which David had pitched for it. And they offered holocausts and peace offerings before God

2 And when David had completed offering holocausts and peace offerings, he blessed the people in the name of the Lord

3 And he divided to every single one, from men even to women, a twist of bread, and a piece of roasted beef, and fine wheat flour fried with oil

4 And he appointed some from the Levites who would minister before the ark of the Lord, and commemorate his works, and glorify and praise the Lord, the God of Israel

5 Asaph was the leader, and second to him was Zechariah. In addition, there were Jeiel, and Shemiramoth, and Jehiel, and Mattithiah, and Eliab, and Benaiah, and Obededom. And Jeiel was over the instruments of the psaltery and the harps. But Asaph sounded out with the cymbals

6 Truly, the priests, Benaiah and Jahaziel, were to sound the trumpet continually before the ark of the covenant of the Lord

7 In that day, David made Asaph the leader, in order to confess to the Lord with his brothers

14 He is the Lord our God. His judgments are throughout all the earth

17 And he appointed the same to Jacob as a precept, and to Israel as an everlasting pact

21 He did not permit anyone to falsely accuse them. Instead, he reproved kings on their behalf

22 ‘Do not touch my Christ. And do not malign my prophets.

23 Sing to the Lord, all the earth! Announce his salvation, from day to day

24 Describe his glory among the Gentiles, his miracles among all the peoples

25 For the Lord is great and exceedingly praiseworthy. And he is terrible, above all gods

26 For all the gods of the peoples are idols. But the Lord made the heavens

27 Confession and magnificence are before him. Strength and gladness are in his place

28 Bring to the Lord, O families of the peoples, bring to the Lord glory and dominion

29 Give glory to the Lord, to his name. Lift up sacrifice, and approach before his sight. And adore the Lord in holy attire

30 Let all the earth be moved before his face. For he founded the globe immoveable

31 Let the heavens rejoice, and let the earth exult. And let them say among the nations, ‘The Lord has reigned.

32 Let the sea roar, with all its plenitude. Let the fields exult, with all that is in them

33 Then the trees of the forest will give praise before the Lord. For he comes to judge the earth

34 Confess to the Lord, for he is good. For his mercy is eternal

35 And say: ‘Save us, O God our savior! And gather us together, and rescue us from the nations, so that we may confess to your holy name, and may exult in your songs

36 Blessed be the Lord, the God of Israel, from eternity to eternity.’ And let all the people say, ‘Amen,’ and let them sing a hymn to the Lord.

39 But Zadok the priest, and his brothers the priests, were before the tabernacle of the Lord in the high place, which was in Gibeon

40 so that they could offer holocausts to the Lord upon the altar of holocausts continually, morning and evening, according to all that was written in the law of the Lord, which he instructed to Israel

41 And after him, Heman, and Jeduthun, and the remainder of the elect, each one by his name, were appointed to confess to the Lord: “For his mercy endures forever.

42 Also Heman and Jeduthun sounded the trumpet, and they played upon the cymbals, and upon every kind of musical instrument, in order to sing praises to God. But the sons of Jeduthun he made to be porters

43 And all the people returned to their houses, and David also, so that he might bless his own house too
