| I Chronicles 16: (YLT) |
| 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: -- |
| 8) Give thanks to Jehovah, call in His name, Make known among the peoples His doings. |
| 9) Sing ye to Him, sing psalms to Him, Meditate on all His wonders. |
| 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, |
| 16) Which He hath made with Abraham, And His oath -- to Isaac, |
| 17) And He establisheth it to Jacob for a statute, To Israel -- a covenant age-during. |
| 18) Saying: To thee I give the land of Canaan, The portion of your inheritance, |
| 19) When ye are few of number, As a little thing, and sojourners in it. |
| 20) And they go up and down, From nation unto nation, And from a kingdom unto another people. |
| 21) He hath not suffered any to oppress them, And reproveth on their account kings: |
| 22) Come not against Mine anointed ones, And against My prophets do not evil. |
| 23) Sing to Jehovah, all the earth, Proclaim from day unto day His salvation. |
| 24) Rehearse among nations His glory, Among all the peoples His wonders. |
| 25) For great [is] Jehovah, and praised greatly, And fearful He [is] above all gods. |
| 26) For all gods of the peoples [are] nought, And Jehovah the heavens hath made. |
| 27) Honour and majesty [are] before Him, Strength and joy [are] in His place. |
| 28) Ascribe to Jehovah, ye families of peoples, Ascribe to Jehovah honour and strength. |
| 29) Ascribe to Jehovah the honour of His name, Lift up a present, and come before Him. Bow yourselves to Jehovah, In the beauty of holiness. |
| 30) Be pained before Him, all the earth: |
| 31) Also, established is the world, It is not moved! The heavens rejoice, and the earth is glad, And they say among nations: Jehovah hath reigned. |
| 32) Roar doth the sea, and its fulness, Exult doth the field, and all that [is] in it, |
| 33) Then sing do trees of the forest, From the presence of Jehovah, For He hath come to judge the earth! |
| 34) Give thanks to Jehovah, for good, For to the age, [is] His kindness, |
| 35) And say, Save us, O God of our salvation, And gather us, and deliver us from the nations, To give thanks to Thy holy name, To triumph in Thy praise. |
| 36) Blessed [is] Jehovah, God of Israel, From the age and unto the age;' And all the people say, 'Amen,' and have given praise to Jehovah. |
| 37) And he leaveth there before the ark of the covenant of Jehovah, for Asaph and for his brethren, to minister before the ark continually, according to the matter of a day in its day, |
| 38) both Obed-Edom and their brethren, sixty and eight, and Obed-Edom son of Jeduthun, and Hosah for gatekeepers, |
| 39) and Zadok the priest, and his brethren the priests, before the tabernacle of Jehovah, in a high place that [is] in Gibeon, |
| 40) to cause to ascend burnt-offerings to Jehovah, on the altar of burnt-offering continually, morning and evening, and for all that is written in the law of Jehovah, 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 Jehovah, for to the age [is] His kindness, |
| 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 turneth round to bless his house. |
