1. And they brought the ark of God and set it inside the tent that David had pitched for it. And they offered burnt offerings and fellowship offerings before God.
2. And when David had finished offering the burnt offerings and fellowship offerings, he blessed the people in the name of Yahweh.
3. And he distributed to every man of Israel, both men and women, to each person a loaf of bread, a cake of dates, and a cake of raisins.
4. Then he appointed some of the Levites as ministers before the ark of Yahweh, to invoke, thank, and praise Yahweh the God of Israel.
5. Asaph was chief, and his second was Zechariah; Jeiel, Shemiramoth, Jehiel, Mattithiah, Eliab, Benaiah, Obed-Edom, and Jeiel were on harps and lyres. And Asaph played on the cymbals.
6. And Benaiah and Jahaziel the priests blew on the trumpets continually before the ark of the covenant of God.
7. Then on that day David first appointed to give thanks to Yahweh by the hand of Asaph and his brothers.
8. Give thanks to Yahweh; call upon his name; make known his deeds among the nations!

10. Glory in his holy name; let the hearts of those seeking Yahweh rejoice!
11. Seek Yahweh and his strength; seek his face continually!
12. Remember his wonderful works that he has done, his wonders and the judgments of his mouth,
