-
He appointed some of the Levites to minister before the ark of the Lord, to extol, thank, and praise the Lord, the God of Israel:
-
That day David first appointed Asaph and his associates to give praise to the Lord in this manner:
-
Give praise to the Lord, proclaim his name; make known among the nations what he has done.
-
Sing to him, sing praise to him; tell of all his wonderful acts.
-
For great is the Lord and most worthy of praise; he is to be feared above all gods.
-
Cry out, “Save us, God our Savior; gather us and deliver us from the nations, that we may give thanks to your holy name, and glory in your praise.”
-
Praise be to the Lord, the God of Israel, from everlasting to everlasting. Then all the people said “Amen” and “Praise the Lord.”
-
Four thousand are to be gatekeepers and four thousand are to praise the Lord with the musical instruments I have provided for that purpose.”
-
They were also to stand every morning to thank and praise the Lord. They were to do the same in the evening

David’s Prayer
David praised the Lord in the presence of the whole assembly, saying, “Praise be to you, Lord, the God of our father Israel, from everlasting to everlasting.
-
Now, our God, we give you thanks, and praise your glorious name.
-
Then David said to the whole assembly, “Praise the Lord your God.” So they all praised the Lord, the God of their fathers; they bowed down, prostrating themselves before the Lord and the king.
