1 And they bring in the Ark of God, and set it up in the midst of the tent that David has stretched out for it, and they bring burnt-offerings and peace-offerings near before God; 2 and David ceases from offering the burnt-offering and the peace-offerings, and blesses the people in the Name of YHWH, 3 and gives a portion to every man of Israel, both man and woman: to each a cake of bread, and a measure of wine, and a grape-cake. 4 And he puts before the Ark of YHWH, those ministering from the Levites, even to make mention of, and to thank, and to give praise to YHWH, God of Israel: 5 Asaph the head, and his second Zechariah; Jeiel, and Shemiramoth, and Jehiel, and Mattithiah, and Eliab, and Benaiah, and Obed-Edom, and Jeiel, with instruments of psalteries, and with harps; and Asaph is sounding with cymbals; 6 and Benaiah and Jahaziel the priests [are] continually [sounding] with trumpets before the Ark of the Covenant of God. 7 On that day, at that time, David has given at the beginning to give thanks to YHWH by the hand of Asaph and his brothers: 8 “Give thanks to YHWH, call on His Name, || Make His doings known among the peoples. 9 Sing to Him, sing psalms to Him, || Meditate on all His wonders. 10 Boast yourselves in His Holy Name, || The heart of those seeking YHWH rejoices. 11 Seek YHWH and His strength, || Seek His face continually. 12 Remember His wonders that He did, || His signs, and the judgments of His mouth, 13 O seed of Israel, His servant, || O sons of Jacob, His chosen ones! 14 He [is] our God YHWH, || His judgments [are] in all the earth. 15 Remember His covenant for all time, || The word He commanded—To one thousand generations, 16 Which He has made with Abraham, || And His oath—to Isaac, 17 And He establishes it to Jacob for a statute, || To Israel [for] a perpetual covenant, 18 Saying, To you I give the land of Canaan, || The portion of your inheritance, 19 When you were few in number, || As a little thing, and sojourners in it. 20 And they go up and down, || From nation to nation, || And from a kingdom to another people. 21 He has not permitted any to oppress them, || And reproves kings on their account: 22 Do not come against My anointed ones, || And do no evil against My prophets. 23 Sing to YHWH, all the earth, || Proclaim His salvation from day to day. 24 Recount His glory among nations, || His wonders among all the peoples. 25 For great [is] YHWH, and greatly praised, || And He [is] fearful above all gods. 26 For all gods of the peoples [are] nothing, || And YHWH has made the heavens. 27 Splendor and majesty [are] before Him, || Strength and joy [are] in His place. 28 Ascribe to YHWH, you families of peoples, || Ascribe to YHWH glory and strength. 29 Ascribe to YHWH the glory of His Name, || Lift up a present, and come before Him. Bow yourselves to YHWH, || In the beauty of holiness. 30 Be pained before Him, all the earth; Also, the world is established, || It is not moved! 31 The heavens rejoice, and the earth is glad, || And they say among nations, YHWH has reigned! 32 The sea roars, and its fullness, || The field exults, and all that [is] in it, 33 Then trees of the forest sing, || From the presence of YHWH, || For He has come to judge the earth! 34 Give thanks to YHWH, for [He is] good, || For His kindness [is] for all time, 35 And say, Save us, O God of our salvation, || And gather us, and deliver us from the nations, || To give thanks to Your Holy Name, || To triumph in Your praise. 36 Blessed [is] YHWH, God of Israel, || From age to age”; And all the people say, “Amen,” and have given praise to YHWH. 37 And he leaves there [those] of Asaph and of his brothers, before the Ark of the Covenant of YHWH, to minister before the Ark continually, according to the matter of a day in its day; 38 both Obed-Edom and their sixty-eight brothers, and Obed-Edom son of Jeduthun, and Hosah, for gatekeepers; 39 and Zadok the priest, and his brothers the priests, before the Dwelling Place of YHWH, in a high place that [is] in Gibeon, 40 to cause burnt-offerings to ascend continually to YHWH on the altar of burnt-offering, morning and evening, and for all that is written in the Law of YHWH that He charged on Israel. 41 And with them [are] Heman and Jeduthun, and the rest of those chosen, who were defined by name, to give thanks to YHWH, for His kindness [is] for all time; 42 and with them—Heman and Jeduthun—[are] trumpets and cymbals for those sounding, and instruments of the song of God, and the sons of Jeduthun [are] at the gate. 43 And all the people go, each to his house, and David turns around to bless his house.
