1Ch 16

16 And when they had brought in the ark of God, they set it in the midst of the tent that David had pitched for it, and they offered burnt-offerings and peace-offerings before God. 2 And when David had finished sacrificing the burnt-offering and peace-offerings, he blessed the people in the name of Jehovah. 3 And he distributed to every one in Israel, both man and woman, a loaf of bread, and a portion of meat, and a bunch of raisins. 4 And he appointed certain of the Levites to minister before the ark of Jehovah and to celebrate, thank, and praise Jehovah, the God of Israel: 5 Asaph the chief, and second to him Zechariah, then Uzziel, Shemiramoth, Jehiel, Matti-Ethiah, Eliab, Benaiah, Obed-edom, and Jeiel, with lyres and harps; while Asaph played loudly with cymbals, 6 and Benaiah and Jahaziel the priests with trumpets continually before the ark of the covenant of God. 7 Also on that day David for the first time entrusted to Asaph and his clansmen the giving of thanks to Jehovah. 37 So he left there before the ark of the covenant of Jehovah, Asaph and his brethren to minister before the ark continually, as every day’s work required; 38 and Obed-edom the son of Jeduthun and Hosah, with their clansmen, sixty-eight, to be doorkeepers, 39 and Zadok the priest, and his clansmen the priests, before the dwelling of Jehovah in the high place that was at Gibeon, 40 to offer burnt-offerings to Jehovah upon the altar of burnt-offering continually morning and evening, according to all that is written in the law of Jehovah, which he commanded Israel; 41 and with them Heman and Jeduthun, and the rest of those who were mentioned by name to give thanks to Jehovah, because his kindness endures forever; 42 and with them (Heman and Jeduthum) trumpets and cymbals for the musicians and instruments for the songs of God; and the sons of Jeduthun to stand in the gate. 43 Then all the people went each to his house, and David returned to greet his family.
