New Testament

1 Chronicles 16:3-14 American Standard Version (ASV)

3. And 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.

4. And 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:

5. Asaph 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;

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

13. O ye seed of Israel his servant, Ye children of Jacob, his chosen ones.

14. He is Jehovah our God; His judgments are in all the earth.
