1 Chronicles 16:30-43
New International Version
31 Let the heavens rejoice, let the earth be glad;(C)
let them say among the nations, “The Lord reigns!(D)”
32 Let the sea resound, and all that is in it;(E)
let the fields be jubilant, and everything in them!
33 Let the trees(F) of the forest sing,
let them sing for joy before the Lord,
for he comes to judge(G) the earth.
34 Give thanks(H) to the Lord, for he is good;(I)
his love endures forever.(J)
35 Cry out, “Save us, God our Savior;(K)
gather us and deliver us from the nations,
that we may give thanks to your holy name,
and glory in your praise.”
36 Praise be to the Lord, the God of Israel,(L)
from everlasting to everlasting.
Then all the people said “Amen” and “Praise the Lord.”
37 David left Asaph and his associates before the ark of the covenant of the Lord to minister there regularly, according to each day’s requirements.(M) 38 He also left Obed-Edom(N) and his sixty-eight associates to minister with them. Obed-Edom son of Jeduthun, and also Hosah,(O) were gatekeepers.
39 David left Zadok(P) the priest and his fellow priests before the tabernacle of the Lord at the high place in Gibeon(Q) 40 to present burnt offerings to the Lord on the altar of burnt offering regularly, morning and evening, in accordance with everything written in the Law(R) of the Lord, which he had given Israel. 41 With them were Heman(S) and Jeduthun and the rest of those chosen and designated by name to give thanks to the Lord, “for his love endures forever.” 42 Heman and Jeduthun were responsible for the sounding of the trumpets and cymbals and for the playing of the other instruments for sacred song.(T) The sons of Jeduthun(U) were stationed at the gate.
43 Then all the people left, each for their own home, and David returned home to bless his family.

1 Chronicles 16:30-43
King James Version
30 Fear before him, all the earth: the world also shall be stable, that it be not moved.
31 Let the heavens be glad, and let the earth rejoice: and let men say among the nations, The Lord reigneth.
32 Let the sea roar, and the fulness thereof: let the fields rejoice, and all that is therein.
33 Then shall the trees of the wood sing out at the presence of the Lord, because he cometh to judge the earth.
34 O give thanks unto the Lord; for he is good; for his mercy endureth for ever.
35 And say ye, Save us, O God of our salvation, and gather us together, and deliver us from the heathen, that we may give thanks to thy holy name, and glory in thy praise.
36 Blessed be the Lord God of Israel for ever and ever. And all the people said, Amen, and praised the Lord.
37 So he left there before the ark of the covenant of the Lord Asaph and his brethren, to minister before the ark continually, as every day's work required:
38 And Obededom with their brethren, threescore and eight; Obededom also the son of Jeduthun and Hosah to be porters:
39 And Zadok the priest, and his brethren the priests, before the tabernacle of the Lord in the high place that was at Gibeon,
40 To offer burnt offerings unto the Lord upon the altar of the burnt offering continually morning and evening, and to do according to all that is written in the law of the Lord, which he commanded Israel;
41 And with them Heman and Jeduthun, and the rest that were chosen, who were expressed by name, to give thanks to the Lord, because his mercy endureth for ever;
42 And with them Heman and Jeduthun with trumpets and cymbals for those that should make a sound, and with musical instruments of God. And the sons of Jeduthun were porters.
43 And all the people departed every man to his house: and David returned to bless his house.
