1CHRON 16:1 They brought in the ark of God, and set it in the midst of the tent that David had pitched for it: and they offered burnt offerings and peace offerings before God.
1CHRON 16:2 When David had made an end of offering the burnt offering and the peace offerings, he blessed the people in the name of Yahweh.
1CHRON 16:3 He dealt to everyone of Israel, both man and woman, to every one a loaf of bread, and a portion [of flesh], and a cake of raisins.
1CHRON 16:4 He appointed certain of the Levites to minister before the ark of Yahweh, and to celebrate and to thank and praise Yahweh, the God of Israel:
1CHRON 16:5 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 stringed instruments and with harps; and Asaph with cymbals, sounding aloud;
1CHRON 16:6 and Benaiah and Jahaziel the priests with trumpets continually, before the ark of the covenant of God.
1CHRON 16:7 Then on that day David first ordained to give thanks to Yahweh, by the hand of Asaph and his brothers.
1CHRON 16:8 Oh give thanks to Yahweh. Call on his name. Make his doings known among the peoples.
1CHRON 16:9 Sing to him. Sing praises to him. Tell of all his marvelous works.
1CHRON 16:10 Glory in his holy name. Let the heart of those who seek Yahweh rejoice.
1CHRON 16:11 Seek you Yahweh and his strength. Seek his face forever more.
1CHRON 16:12 Remember his marvelous works that he has done, his wonders, and the judgments of his mouth,
1CHRON 16:13 you seed of Israel his servant, you children of Jacob, his chosen ones.
1CHRON 16:14 He is Yahweh our God. His judgments are in all the earth.
1CHRON 16:15 Remember his covenant forever, the word which he commanded to a thousand generations,
1CHRON 16:16 [the covenant] which he made with Abraham, his oath to Isaac.
1CHRON 16:17 He confirmed the same to Jacob for a statute, and to Israel for an everlasting covenant,
1CHRON 16:18 saying, I will you give the land of Canaan, The lot of your inheritance,
1CHRON 16:19 when you were but a few men in number, yes, very few, and foreigners were in it.
1CHRON 16:20 They went about from nation to nation, from one kingdom to another people.
1CHRON 16:21 He allowed no man to do them wrong. Yes, he reproved kings for their sakes,
1CHRON 16:22 [saying], Don't touch my anointed ones! Do my prophets no harm.
1CHRON 16:23 Sing to Yahweh, all the earth! Display his salvation from day to day.
1CHRON 16:24 Declare his glory among the nations, and his marvelous works among all the peoples.
1CHRON 16:25 For great is Yahweh, and greatly to be praised. He also is to be feared above all gods.
1CHRON 16:26 For all the gods of the peoples are idols, but Yahweh made the heavens.
1CHRON 16:27 Honor and majesty are before him. Strength and gladness are in his place.
1CHRON 16:28 Ascribe to Yahweh, you relatives of the peoples, ascribe to Yahweh glory and strength!
1CHRON 16:29 Ascribe to Yahweh the glory due to his name. Bring an offering, and come before him. Worship Yahweh in holy array.
1CHRON 16:30 Tremble before him, all the earth. The world also is established that it can't be moved.
1CHRON 16:31 Let the heavens be glad, and let the earth rejoice! Let them say among the nations, Yahweh reigns.
1CHRON 16:32 Let the sea roar, and its fullness! Let the field exult, and all that is therein!
1CHRON 16:33 Then the trees of the forest will sing for joy before Yahweh, for he comes to judge the earth.
1CHRON 16:34 Oh give thanks to Yahweh, for he is good, for his loving kindness endures forever.
1CHRON 16:35 Say, Save us, God of our salvation! Gather us together and deliver us from the nations, to give thanks to your holy name, to triumph in your praise.
1CHRON 16:36 Blessed be Yahweh, the God of Israel, from everlasting even to everlasting. All the people said, Amen, and praised Yahweh.
1CHRON 16:37 So he left there, before the ark of the covenant of Yahweh, Asaph and his brothers, to minister before the ark continually, as every day's work required;
1CHRON 16:38 and Obed-Edom with their brothers, sixty-eight; Obed-Edom also the son of Jeduthun and Hosah to be doorkeepers;
1CHRON 16:39 and Zadok the priest, and his brothers the priests, before the tabernacle of Yahweh in the high place that was at Gibeon,
1CHRON 16:40 to offer burnt offerings to Yahweh on the altar of burnt offering continually morning and evening, even according to all that is written in the law of Yahweh, which he commanded to Israel;
1CHRON 16:41 and with them Heman and Jeduthun, and the rest who were chosen, who were mentioned by name, to give thanks to Yahweh, because his loving kindness endures forever;
1CHRON 16:42 and with them Heman and Jeduthun [with] trumpets and cymbals for those that should sound aloud, and [with] instruments for the songs of God; and the sons of Jeduthun to be at the gate.
1CHRON 16:43 All the people departed every man to his house: and David returned to bless his house.
