1 Chronicles 16:1-15 Young's Literal Translation Of The Holy Bible (YLT98)

1. And they bring in the ark of God, and set it up in the midst of the tent that David hath stretched out for it, and they bring near burnt-offerings and peace-offerings before God;

2. and David ceaseth from offering the burnt-offering and the peace-offerings, and blesseth the people in the name of Jehovah,

3. and giveth 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 putteth before the ark of Jehovah, of the Levites, ministers, even to make mention of, and to thank, and to give praise to Jehovah, 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 with cymbals is sounding;

6. and Benaiah and Jahaziel the priests [are] with trumpets continually before the ark of the covenant of God.

7. On that day then hath David given at the beginning to give thanks to Jehovah by the hand of Asaph and his brethren: --

10. Boast yourselves in His holy name, Rejoice doth the heart of those seeking Jehovah.

11. Seek ye Jehovah 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] Jehovah our God, In all the earth [are] His judgments.

15. Remember ye to the age His covenant, The word He commanded--To a thousand generations,
