16 眾人將上帝的約櫃抬進去，安放在大衛所搭的帳篷裡，然後在上帝面前獻上燔祭和平安祭。 2 大衛獻上燔祭和平安祭後，就奉耶和華的名給民眾祝福， 3 又給以色列男女每人一個餅、一塊肉和一個葡萄餅。
4 大衛指派一些利未人在耶和華的約櫃前事奉，頌揚、稱謝和讚美以色列的上帝耶和華。 5 為首的是亞薩，其次是撒迦利雅、雅薛、示米拉末、耶歇、瑪他提雅、以利押、比拿雅、俄別·以東和耶利，他們鼓瑟彈琴，亞薩敲鈸。 6 比拿雅和雅哈悉兩位祭司在上帝的約櫃前吹號。
大衛的頌歌
7 那一天，大衛初次指派亞薩和他的親族唱詩歌頌耶和華，說：
8 「你們要稱謝耶和華，
呼求祂的名，
在列邦傳揚祂的作為。
9 要歌頌、讚美祂，
述說祂一切奇妙的作為。
10 要以祂的聖名為榮，
願尋求耶和華的人都歡欣。
11 要尋求耶和華和祂的能力，
時常來到祂面前。
12-13 祂僕人以色列的後裔啊，
祂所揀選的雅各的子孫啊，
要記住祂所行的神蹟奇事和祂口中的判詞。
14 「祂是我們的上帝耶和華，
祂在普天下施行審判。
15 你們要永遠銘記祂的約，
要思想祂的應許直到千代，
16 就是祂與亞伯拉罕所立的約，
向以撒所起的誓。
17 祂將這約定為律例賜給雅各，
定為永遠的約賜給以色列。
18 祂說，『我必把迦南賜給你，
作為你的產業。』
19 「那時他們人丁稀少，
在當地寄居，
20 他們在異國他鄉流離飄零。
21 耶和華不容人壓迫他們，
還為他們的緣故責備君王，
22 說，『不可難為我膏立的人，
也不可傷害我的先知。』
23 「普天下都要歌頌耶和華，
要天天傳揚祂的救恩；
24 要在列國述說祂的榮耀，
在萬民中述說祂的奇妙作為。
25 因為耶和華無比偉大，
當受至高的頌揚；
祂超越一切神明，
當受敬畏。
26 列邦的神明都是假的，
唯獨耶和華創造了諸天。
27 祂尊貴威嚴，
祂的聖所充滿能力和喜樂。
28 「萬族萬民啊，
要把榮耀和能力歸給耶和華，
歸給耶和華！
29 要將耶和華當得的榮耀歸給祂，
要將供物獻給祂，
要穿上聖潔的衣服敬拜祂。
30 普天下要在祂面前戰抖；
祂堅立世界，使它不致搖動。
31 願天歡喜，願地快樂；
願他們向列國宣告，
『耶和華是王！』
32 願海洋和其中的萬物都歡呼，
願田野和其中的一切都歡騰！
33 那時，林中的樹木都要在耶和華面前歡唱，
因為祂要來審判天下。
34 要稱謝耶和華，
因為祂是美善的，
祂的慈愛永遠長存！
35 「要說，『拯救我們的上帝啊，
求你救我們，招聚我們，
從列國把我們救出來，
我們好稱謝你的聖名，
以讚美你為榮。』
36 從亙古到永遠，
以色列的上帝耶和華當受稱頌！」
眾民都說：「阿們」，
並讚美耶和華。
分派事奉的人員
37 大衛派亞薩及其親族天天在約櫃前事奉耶和華，盡當盡的職分； 38 又派俄別·以東及其六十八位親族、何薩和耶杜頓的兒子俄別·以東守門； 39 並派祭司撒督及其他祭司在基遍高地的耶和華的聖幕前供職， 40 按照耶和華在律法書上對以色列人的吩咐，每日早晚在祭壇上獻燔祭給耶和華。 41 與他們一同供職的有希幔、耶杜頓和其他人，他們被特別選出來稱謝上帝，因為祂有永恆的慈愛。 42 希幔和耶杜頓負責用號、鈸及其他樂器伴奏歌頌上帝。耶杜頓的子孫負責守門。 43 於是，眾民各自回家，大衛也回去為家人祝福。

A Tent for the Ark
16 And they brought in the ark of God and (A)placed it inside the tent which David had pitched for it, and they brought burnt offerings and peace offerings near before God. 2 Then David completed offering the burnt offerings and the peace offerings. And he blessed the people in the name of Yahweh. 3 And he apportioned to everyone of Israel, both men and women, to everyone a loaf of bread and a portion of meat and a raisin cake.
4 And he made some of the Levites ministers before the ark of Yahweh, even to bring remembrance and to thank and praise Yahweh, the God of Israel: 5 Asaph the chief, and second to him Zechariah, then [a]Jeiel, Shemiramoth, Jehiel, Mattithiah, Eliab, Benaiah, Obed-edom, and Jeiel, with musical instruments, harps, lyres; also Asaph played loud-sounding cymbals, 6 and Benaiah and Jahaziel the priests blew trumpets continually before the ark of the covenant of God.
7 Then on that day David (B)first assigned [b]Asaph and his [c]relatives to give thanks to Yahweh.
Song of Thanksgiving
8 (C)Oh give thanks to Yahweh, call upon His name;
(D)Make known His acts among the peoples.
9 Sing to Him, sing praises to Him;
Muse on all His wondrous deeds.
10 Boast in His holy name;
Let the heart of those who seek Yahweh be glad.
11 (E)Inquire of Yahweh and His strength;
Seek His face continually.
12 (F)Remember His wondrous deeds which He has done,
(G)His miraculous signs and the judgments uttered by His mouth,
13 O seed of Israel His servant,
O sons of Jacob, His chosen ones!
14 He is Yahweh our God;
(H)His judgments are in all the earth.
15 Remember His covenant forever,
The word which He commanded for a thousand generations,
16 (I)Which He cut with Abraham,
And His oath to Isaac.
17 (J)Then He also confirmed it to Jacob for a statute,
To Israel as an everlasting covenant,
18 Saying, “(K)To you I will give the land of Canaan,
As the portion of your inheritance,”
19 (L)When you were only a few men in number,
Of little account, and sojourners in it,
20 And they wandered about from nation to nation,
And from one kingdom to another people,
21 He permitted no man to oppress them,
And (M)He reproved kings for their sakes,
22 “Do not touch My anointed ones,
And (N)against My prophets do no evil.”
23 (O)Sing to Yahweh, all the earth;
Proclaim good news of His salvation from day to day.
24 Recount His glory among the nations,
His wondrous deeds among all the peoples.
25 For (P)great is Yahweh, and greatly to be praised;
And He is [d](Q)more [e]fearsome than all gods.
26 For all the gods of the peoples are [f](R)idols,
(S)But Yahweh made the heavens.
27 Splendor and majesty are before Him,
Strength and joy are in His place.
28 Ascribe to Yahweh, O families of the peoples,
Ascribe to Yahweh glory and strength.
29 Ascribe to Yahweh the glory of His name;
Lift up [g]an offering, and come before Him;
(T)Worship Yahweh in the splendor of holiness.
30 Tremble before Him, all the earth;
Indeed, the world is established, it will not be shaken.
31 (U)Let the heavens be glad, and let the earth rejoice;
And let them say among the nations, “(V)Yahweh reigns.”
32 (W)Let the sea [h]roar, as well as its fullness;
Let the field exult, and all that is in it.
33 Then the trees of the forest will sing for joy before Yahweh;
For He is coming to judge the earth.
34 (X)Oh give thanks to Yahweh, for He is good,
For His lovingkindness endures forever.
35 (Y)Then say, “Save us, O God of our salvation,
And gather us and deliver us from among the nations,
To give thanks to Your holy name
And revel in Your praise.”
36 (Z)Blessed be Yahweh, the God of Israel,
From everlasting to everlasting.
Then all the people (AA)said, “Amen,” and praised Yahweh.
Ministering Before the Ark
37 So he left behind Asaph and his [i]relatives there (AB)before the ark of the covenant of Yahweh to minister before the ark continually, (AC)as every day’s work required; 38 and (AD)Obed-edom with [j]his 68 relatives; Obed-edom, also the son of Jeduthun, and (AE)Hosah as gatekeepers. 39 Now he left behind (AF)Zadok the priest and his [k]relatives the priests (AG)before the [l]tabernacle of Yahweh in the high place, which was at Gibeon, 40 to offer burnt offerings to Yahweh on the altar of burnt offering continually morning and evening, (AH)even according to all that is written in the law of Yahweh, which He commanded Israel. 41 And with them were (AI)Heman and Jeduthun, and (AJ)the rest who were chosen, who were designated by name, to (AK)give thanks to Yahweh, because His lovingkindness endures forever. 42 And with them were Heman and Jeduthun with trumpets and cymbals for those who should sound aloud, and with instruments for (AL)the songs of God, and the sons of Jeduthun for the gate.
43 (AM)Then all the people went each to his house, and David returned to bless his household.

Ministering Before the Ark(A)(B)(C)
16 They brought the ark of God and set it inside the tent that David had pitched(D) for it, and they presented burnt offerings and fellowship offerings before God. 2 After David had finished sacrificing the burnt offerings and fellowship offerings, he blessed(E) the people in the name of the Lord. 3 Then he gave a loaf of bread, a cake of dates and a cake of raisins(F) to each Israelite man and woman.
4 He appointed some of the Levites to minister(G) before the ark of the Lord, to extol,[a] thank, and praise the Lord, the God of Israel: 5 Asaph was the chief, and next to him in rank were Zechariah, then Jaaziel,[b] Shemiramoth, Jehiel, Mattithiah, Eliab, Benaiah, Obed-Edom and Jeiel. They were to play the lyres and harps, Asaph was to sound the cymbals, 6 and Benaiah and Jahaziel the priests were to blow the trumpets regularly before the ark of the covenant of God.
7 That day David first appointed Asaph and his associates to give praise(H) to the Lord in this manner:
8 Give praise(I) to the Lord, proclaim his name;
make known among the nations(J) what he has done.
9 Sing to him, sing praise(K) to him;
tell of all his wonderful acts.
10 Glory in his holy name;(L)
let the hearts of those who seek the Lord rejoice.
11 Look to the Lord and his strength;
seek(M) his face always.
12 Remember(N) the wonders(O) he has done,
his miracles,(P) and the judgments he pronounced,
13 you his servants, the descendants of Israel,
his chosen ones, the children of Jacob.
14 He is the Lord our God;
his judgments(Q) are in all the earth.
15 He remembers[c](R) his covenant forever,
the promise he made, for a thousand generations,
16 the covenant(S) he made with Abraham,
the oath he swore to Isaac.
17 He confirmed it to Jacob(T) as a decree,
to Israel as an everlasting covenant:
18 “To you I will give the land of Canaan(U)
as the portion you will inherit.”
19 When they were but few in number,(V)
few indeed, and strangers in it,
20 they[d] wandered(W) from nation to nation,
from one kingdom to another.
21 He allowed no one to oppress them;
for their sake he rebuked kings:(X)
22 “Do not touch my anointed ones;
do my prophets(Y) no harm.”
23 Sing to the Lord, all the earth;
proclaim his salvation day after day.
24 Declare his glory(Z) among the nations,
his marvelous deeds among all peoples.
25 For great is the Lord and most worthy of praise;(AA)
he is to be feared(AB) above all gods.(AC)
26 For all the gods of the nations are idols,
but the Lord made the heavens.(AD)
27 Splendor and majesty are before him;
strength and joy are in his dwelling place.
28 Ascribe to the Lord, all you families of nations,
ascribe to the Lord glory and strength.(AE)
29 Ascribe to the Lord the glory due his name;(AF)
bring an offering and come before him.
Worship the Lord in the splendor of his[e] holiness.(AG)
30 Tremble(AH) before him, all the earth!
The world is firmly established; it cannot be moved.(AI)
31 Let the heavens rejoice, let the earth be glad;(AJ)
let them say among the nations, “The Lord reigns!(AK)”
32 Let the sea resound, and all that is in it;(AL)
let the fields be jubilant, and everything in them!
33 Let the trees(AM) of the forest sing,
let them sing for joy before the Lord,
for he comes to judge(AN) the earth.
34 Give thanks(AO) to the Lord, for he is good;(AP)
his love endures forever.(AQ)
35 Cry out, “Save us, God our Savior;(AR)
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,(AS)
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.(AT) 38 He also left Obed-Edom(AU) and his sixty-eight associates to minister with them. Obed-Edom son of Jeduthun, and also Hosah,(AV) were gatekeepers.
39 David left Zadok(AW) the priest and his fellow priests before the tabernacle of the Lord at the high place in Gibeon(AX) 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(AY) of the Lord, which he had given Israel. 41 With them were Heman(AZ) 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.(BA) The sons of Jeduthun(BB) were stationed at the gate.
43 Then all the people left, each for their own home, and David returned home to bless his family.
