1 Chronicles 16

1So they brought the ark of Elohim, and set it in the midst of the tent that David had pitched for it: and they offered burnt sacrifices and peace offerings before Elohim. 2And when David had made an end of offering the burnt offerings and the peace offerings, he blessed the people in the name of the Yahuah. 3And he dealt to every one of Israel, both man and woman, to every one a loaf of bread, and a good piece of flesh, and a flagon . 4And he appointed of the Levites to minister before the ark of the Yahuah, and to record, and to thank and praise the Yahuah Elohim of Israel: 5Asaph the chief, and next to him Zechariah, Jeiel, and Shemiramoth, and Jehiel, and Mattithiah, and Eliab, and Benaiah, and Obededom: and Jeiel with psalteries and with harps; but Asaph made a sound with cymbals; 6Benaiah also and Jahaziel the priests with trumpets continually before the ark of the covenant of Elohim. 7Then on that day David delivered first to thank the Yahuah into the hand of Asaph and his brethren. 8Give thanks unto the Yahuah, call upon his name, make known his deeds among the people. 9Sing unto him, sing psalms unto him, talk ye of all his wondrous works. 10Glory ye in his holy name: let the heart of them rejoice that seek the Yahuah. 11Seek the Yahuah and his strength, seek his face continually. 12Remember his marvellous works that he has done, his wonders, and the judgments of his mouth; 13O ye seed of Israel his servant, ye children of Jacob, his chosen ones. 14He the Yahuah our Elohim; his judgments in all the earth. 15Be ye mindful always of his covenant; the word he commanded to a thousand generations; 16which he made with Abraham, and of his oath unto Isaac; 17And has confirmed the same to Jacob for a law, to Israel an everlasting covenant, 18Saying, Unto you will I give the land of Canaan, the lot of your inheritance; 19When ye were but few, even a few, and strangers in it. 20And they went from nation to nation, and from kingdom to another people; 21He suffered no man to do them wrong: yes, he reproved kings for their sakes, 22, Touch not mine anointed, and do my prophets no harm. 23Sing unto the Yahuah, all the earth; shew forth from day to day his salvation. 24Declare his glory among the heathen; his marvellous works among all nations. 25For great the Yahuah, and greatly to be praised: he also to be feared above all gods. 26For all the gods of the people idols: but the Yahuah made the heavens. 27Glory and honour in his presence; strength and gladness in his place. 28Give unto the Yahuah, ye kindreds of the people, give unto the Yahuah glory and strength. 29Give unto the Yahuah the glory unto his name: bring an offering, and come before him: worship the Yahuah in the beauty of holiness. 30Fear before him, all the earth: the world also shall be stable, that it be not moved. 31Let the heavens be glad, and let the earth rejoice: and let say among the nations, The Yahuah reigneth. 32Let the sea roar, and the fulness thereof: let the fields rejoice, and all that therein. 33Then shall the trees of the wood sing out at the presence of the Yahuah, because he cometh to judge the earth. 34O give thanks unto the Yahuah; for good; for his mercy for ever. 35And say ye, Save us, O Elohim of our salvation, and gather us together, and deliver us from the heathen, that we may give thanks to your holy name, glory in your praise. 36Blessed the Yahuah Elohim of Israel for ever and ever. And all the people said, Amen, and praised the Yahuah. 37So he left there before the ark of the covenant of the Yahuah Asaph and his brethren, to minister before the ark continually, as every day's work required: 38And Obededom with their brethren, threescore and eight; Obededom also the son of Jeduthun and Hosah porters: 39And Zadok the priest, and his brethren the priests, before the tabernacle of the Yahuah in the high place that at Gibeon, 40To offer burnt offerings unto the Yahuah upon the altar of the burnt offering continually morning and evening, and according to all that is written in the law of the Yahuah, which he commanded Israel; 41And with them Heman and Jeduthun, and the rest that were chosen, who were expressed by name, to give thanks to the Yahuah, because his mercy for ever; 42And with them Heman and Jeduthun with trumpets and cymbals for those that should make a sound, and with musical instruments of Elohim. And the sons of Jeduthun porters. 43And all the people departed every man to his house: and David returned to bless his house.
