1. And they brought the ark of Elohim, and set it in the midst of the Tent that Dawiḏ had pitched for it. And they brought burnt offerings and peace offerings before Elohim.
2. And when Dawiḏ had made an end of offering the burnt offerings and the peace offerings, he blessed the people in the Name of יהוה,
3. and gave a portion to everyone of Yisra’ĕl, both man and woman, to everyone a loaf of bread, a measure, and a cake of raisins.
4. And he appointed some of the Lĕwites to serve before the ark of יהוה, to bring to remembrance, and to thank, and to praise יהוה Elohim of Yisra’ĕl:
5. Asaph the chief, and his second Zeḵaryah, Ye‛i’ĕl, and Shemiramoth, and Yeḥi’ĕl, and Mattithyah, and Eliyaḇ, and Benayahu, and Oḇĕḏ-Eḏom, and Ye‛i’ĕl, with harps and lyres, but Asaph was sounding with cymbals;
6. and Benayahu and Yaḥazi’ĕl the priests continually blew the trumpets before the ark of the covenant of Elohim.
7. And on that day Dawiḏ first gave thanks to יהוה by the hand of Asaph and his brothers:
8. Give thanks to יהוה, call upon His Name, Make known His deeds among the peoples!
9. Sing to Him, sing praise to Him, Speak of all His wonders!
10. Boast in His set-apart Name, Let the hearts of those seeking יהוה rejoice!
11. Seek יהוה and His strength, Seek His face continually!
12. Remember His wonders which He has done, His signs and the right-rulings of His mouth,
13. O seed of Yisra’ĕl, His servant; O children of Ya‛aqoḇ, His chosen ones!
14. He is יהוה our Elohim, His right-rulings are in all the earth.
15. Remember His covenant forever, The Word He commanded for a thousand generations,
16. Which He made with Aḇraham, And His oath to Yitsḥaq,
