1. So they brought the Aron HaElohim, and set it inside the Ohel that Dovid had pitched for it; and they offered olot (burnt sacrifices) and shelamim before HaElohim.
2. And when Dovid had made an end of offering the olot and the shelamim, he blessed HaAm b'Shem Hashem.
3. And he apportioned to kol Ish Yisroel, both ish and isha, to every one a kikar lechem, and a good piece of meat, and a raisin cake.
4. And he appointed certain of the Levi'im as mesharetim (ministers) before the Aron Hashem, and to remember, and to thank and to praise Hashem Elohei Yisroel;
5. Asaph HaRosh, and mishneh to him Zecharyah, Ye'i'el, and Shemiramot, and Yechiel, and Mattityah, and Eliav, and Benayah, and Oved-Edom; and Ye'i'el with instruments of nevalim (lyres) and with kinnorot; but Asaph made a sound with cymbals;
6. Benayah also and Yachziel the Kohanim with chatzotzerot (trumpets) tamid (continually) before the Aron Brit HaElohim.
7. Then on that day Dovid first committed the giving of thanks unto Hashem into the yad Asaph and his achim.
8. Give thanks unto Hashem, call upon Shmo, make known His deeds among the nations.
9. Sing unto Him, sing psalms unto Him, tell ye of all His nifle'ot (wondrous deeds).
10. Glory ye in Shem Kadesho; let the lev of them rejoice that seek Hashem.
11. Seek Hashem and His oz, seek His face tamid.
12. Remember His nifle'ot that He hath done, His mofetim, and the mishpatim of His mouth;
13. O ye zera Yisroel His eved, ye Bnei Ya'akov, His chosen ones.
