1 Cronica 16
Ang Biblia (1978)
Naghandog ng mga handog na susunugin.
16 At kanilang ipinasok ang kaban ng Dios, at inilagay sa gitna ng tolda na itinayo ni David para roon: at sila'y nagsipaghandog ng mga handog na susunugin, at mga handog tungkol sa kapayapaan sa harap ng Dios.
2 At nang si David ay makatapos na maghandog ng handog na susunugin at ng mga handog tungkol sa kapayapaan, ay kaniyang binasbasan ang bayan sa pangalan ng Panginoon.
3 At siya'y nagbigay sa bawa't isa sa Israel, sa lalake at gayon din sa babae, sa bawa't isa ng isang tinapay, at ng isang bahaging laman, at isang binilong pasas.
4 At siya'y naghalal ng ilan sa mga Levita upang (A)magsipangasiwa sa harap ng kaban ng Panginoon, at upang magsipagdiwang at magagpasalamat, at mangagpuri sa Panginoon, sa Dios ng Israel:
5 (B)Si Asaph ang pinuno, at ang ikalawa niya'y si Zacharias, si Jeiel, at si Semiramoth, at si Jehiel, at si Eliab, at si Benaias, at si Obed-edom, at si Jeiel, na may mga salterio at mga alpa; at si Asaph na may mga simbalo, na tumutunog ng malakas;
6 At si Benaias at si Jahaziel na mga saserdote na mga may pakakak na palagi, sa harap ng kaban ng tipan ng Dios.
7 Nang magkagayo'y nang araw na yao'y unang iniutos ni David ang (C)magpasalamat sa Panginoon, sa pamamagitan ng kamay ni Asaph at ng kaniyang mga kapatid.
Ang awit ng pagpapasalamat.
8 (D)Oh kayo'y mangagpasalamat sa Panginoon, magsitawag kayo sa kaniyang pangalan;
(E)Ipakilala ninyo sa mga bayan ang kaniyang mga gawa.
9 Magsiawit kayo sa kaniya, magsiawit kayo ng mga pagpuri sa kaniya;
Salitain ninyo ang lahat niyang mga kamanghamanghang gawa.
10 Mangagpakaluwalhati kayo sa kaniyang banal na pangalan:
Mangagalak ang puso niyaong nagsisihanap sa Panginoon.
11 Hanapin ninyo ang Panginoon at ang kaniyang lakas;
Hanapin ninyo ang kaniyang mukha na palagi.
12 Alalahanin ninyo ang kaniyang kamanghamanghang mga gawa na kaniyang ginawa;
Ang kaniyang mga kababalaghan, at ang mga kahatulan ng kaniyang bibig;
13 Oh kayong binhi ng Israel na kaniyang lingkod,
Kayong mga anak ni Jacob na kaniyang pinili.
14 Siya ang Panginoon nating Dios;
(F)Ang kaniyang mga kahatulan ay nasa sangkalupaan.
15 Alalahanin ninyo ang kaniyang tipan magpakailan man,
Ang salita na kaniyang iniutos sa libolibong sali't saling lahi;
16 (G)Ang tipan na kaniyang ginawa kay Abraham,
At ang kaniyang sumpa kay Isaac:
17 At pinatotohanan din kay Jacob na pinaka palatuntunan,
Kay Israel na pinaka walang hanggang tipan:
18 Na sinasabi, (H)Sa iyo'y ibibigay ko ang lupain ng Canaan,
Ang kapalaran ng inyong mana:
19 Noong kayo'y kakaunting tao sa bilang;
Oo, totoong kaunti, at nangakikipamayan doon;
20 At sila'y nagsiyaon sa bansa at bansa,
At mula sa isang kaharian hanggang sa ibang bayan.
21 Hindi niya tiniis na gawan sila nino man ng kasamaan;
Oo, kaniyang sinaway ang mga hari dahil sa kanila;
22 Na sinasabi, Huwag ninyong galawin ang aking mga pinahiran ng langis,
At huwag ninyong saktan ang aking mga propeta.
23 (I)Kayo'y magsiawit sa Panginoon, buong lupa,
Ihayag ninyo ang kaniyang pagliligtas sa araw-araw.
24 Ipahayag ninyo ang kaniyang kaluwalhatian sa gitna ng mga bansa,
Ang kaniyang mga kamanghamanghang gawa sa gitna ng lahat ng mga bayan.
25 Sapagka't dakila ang Panginoon, at marapat na purihing mainam:
Siya rin nama'y marapat na katakutan (J)ng higit sa lahat na dios.
26 Sapagka't lahat ng dios ng mga bayan ay mga diosdiosan:
Nguni't nilikha ng Panginoon ang mga langit.
27 Karangalan at kamahalan ang nangasa harap niya:
Kalakasan at kasayahan ang nangasa kaniyang tahanan.
28 Mangagbigay kayo sa Panginoon, kayong mga angkan ng mga bayan,
Mangagbigay kayo sa Panginoon ng kaluwalhatian at ng kalakasan.
29 Inyong ibigay sa Panginoon ang kaluwalhatiang marapat sa kaniyang pangalan:
Mangagdala kayo ng handog, at magsiparoon kayo sa harap niya:
Inyong sambahin ang Panginoon sa (K)ganda ng kabanalan.
30 Manginig sa harap niya ang buong lupa:
Ang sanglibutan nama'y natatatag na hindi makikilos.
31 Mangagsaya ang mga langit, at magalak ang lupa;
At sabihin nila sa gitna ng mga bansa, Ang Panginoon ay naghahari.
32 (L)Umugong ang dagat at ang kapunuan niyaon;
Matuwa ang parang at ang lahat na nandoon;
33 Kung magkagayo'y aawit ang mga puno ng kahoy sa gubat dahil sa kagalakan sa harap ng Panginoon,
Sapagka't siya'y naparirito upang hatulan ang lupa.
34 Oh mangagpasalamat kayo sa Panginoon; sapagka't siya'y mabuti:
Sapagka't ang kaniyang kaawaan ay magpakailan man.
35 (M)At sabihin ninyo, Iligtas mo kami, Oh Dios ng aming kaligtasan,
At pisanin mo kami, at iligtas mo kami sa mga bansa,
Upang kami ay pasalamat sa iyong banal na pangalan,
At magtagumpay sa iyong kapurihan.
36 (N)Purihin ang Panginoon, ang Dios ng Israel,
Mula sa walang pasimula hanggang sa walang hanggan.
At sinabi ng (O)buong bayan, Siya nawa: at pinuri ang Panginoon.
Tagapangasiwa sa harap ng kaban.
37 Sa gayo'y iniwan niya roon (P)sa harap ng kaban ng tipan ng Panginoon, si Asaph at ang kaniyang mga kapatid upang magsipangasiwang palagi sa harap ng kaban, gaya ng kinakailangan ng gawain sa araw-araw:
38 At si Obed-edom pati ng kanilang mga kapatid, ay anim na pu't walo; si Obed-edom din na anak ni Jeduthun at si Asa ay upang maging mga tagatanod-pinto:
39 At si Sadoc na saserdote, at ang kaniyang mga kapatid na mga saserdote, sa harap ng tabernakulo ng Panginoon sa mataas na dako na nasa (Q)Gabaon,
40 Upang maghandog na (R)palagi ng mga handog na susunugin sa Panginoon sa ibabaw ng (S)dambana ng handog na susunugin sa umaga at hapon, ayon sa lahat na nangasusulat sa kautusan ng Panginoon na kaniyang iniutos sa Israel;
41 At kasama nila si Heman at si Jeduthun, at ang nalabi sa mga pinili, na nangasaysay sa pangalan upang pasalamat sa Panginoon, (T)sapagka't ang kaniyang kaawaan ay magpakailan man;
42 At kasama nila si Heman at si Jeduthun na may mga pakakak at mga simbalo sa mangagpapatunog ng malakas, at mga may panugtog sa mga awit sa Dios: at ang mga anak ni Jeduthun upang mangalagay sa pintuang-daan.
43 (U)At ang buong bayan ay nagsiuwi bawa't tao sa kanikaniyang bahay: at si David ay bumalik upang basbasan ang kaniyang sangbahayan.
1 Chronicles 16
King James Version
16 So they brought the ark of God, and set it in the midst of the tent that David had pitched for it: and they offered burnt sacrifices and peace offerings before God.
2 And when David had made an end of offering the burnt offerings and the peace offerings, he blessed the people in the name of the Lord.
3 And he dealt to every one of Israel, both man and woman, to every one a loaf of bread, and a good piece of flesh, and a flagon of wine.
4 And he appointed certain of the Levites to minister before the ark of the Lord, and to record, and to thank and praise the Lord God of Israel:
5 Asaph the chief, and next to him Zechariah, Jeiel, and Shemiramoth, and Jehiel, and Mattithiah, and Eliab, and Benaiah, and Obededom: and Jeiel with psalteries and with harps; but Asaph made a sound with cymbals;
6 Benaiah also and Jahaziel the priests with trumpets continually before the ark of the covenant of God.
7 Then on that day David delivered first this psalm to thank the Lord into the hand of Asaph and his brethren.
8 Give thanks unto the Lord, call upon his name, make known his deeds among the people.
9 Sing unto him, sing psalms unto him, talk ye of all his wondrous works.
10 Glory ye in his holy name: let the heart of them rejoice that seek the Lord.
11 Seek the Lord and his strength, seek his face continually.
12 Remember his marvellous works that he hath done, his wonders, and the judgments of his mouth;
13 O ye seed of Israel his servant, ye children of Jacob, his chosen ones.
14 He is the Lord our God; his judgments are in all the earth.
15 Be ye mindful always of his covenant; the word which he commanded to a thousand generations;
16 Even of the covenant which he made with Abraham, and of his oath unto Isaac;
17 And hath confirmed the same to Jacob for a law, and to Israel for an everlasting covenant,
18 Saying, Unto thee will I give the land of Canaan, the lot of your inheritance;
19 When ye were but few, even a few, and strangers in it.
20 And when they went from nation to nation, and from one kingdom to another people;
21 He suffered no man to do them wrong: yea, he reproved kings for their sakes,
22 Saying, Touch not mine anointed, and do my prophets no harm.
23 Sing unto the Lord, all the earth; shew forth from day to day his salvation.
24 Declare his glory among the heathen; his marvellous works among all nations.
25 For great is the Lord, and greatly to be praised: he also is to be feared above all gods.
26 For all the gods of the people are idols: but the Lord made the heavens.
27 Glory and honour are in his presence; strength and gladness are in his place.
28 Give unto the Lord, ye kindreds of the people, give unto the Lord glory and strength.
29 Give unto the Lord the glory due unto his name: bring an offering, and come before him: worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness.
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.
1 Chronicles 16
New King James Version
The Ark Placed in the Tabernacle(A)
16 So (B)they brought the ark of God, and set it in the midst of the tabernacle that David had erected for it. Then they offered burnt offerings and peace offerings before God. 2 And when David had finished offering the burnt offerings and the peace offerings, (C)he blessed the people in the name of the Lord. 3 Then he distributed to everyone of Israel, both man and woman, to everyone a loaf of bread, a piece of meat, and a cake of raisins.
4 And he appointed some of the Levites to minister before the ark of the Lord, to (D)commemorate, to thank, and to praise the Lord God of Israel: 5 Asaph the chief, and next to him Zechariah, then (E)Jeiel, Shemiramoth, Jehiel, Mattithiah, Eliab, Benaiah, and Obed-Edom: Jeiel with stringed instruments and harps, but Asaph made music with cymbals; 6 Benaiah and Jahaziel the priests regularly blew the trumpets before the ark of the covenant of God.
David’s Song of Thanksgiving(F)
7 On that day (G)David (H)first delivered this psalm into the hand of Asaph and his brethren, to thank the Lord:
8 (I)Oh, give thanks to the Lord!
Call upon His name;
Make known His deeds among the peoples!
9 Sing to Him, sing psalms to Him;
Talk of all His wondrous works!
10 Glory in His holy name;
Let the hearts of those rejoice who seek the Lord!
11 Seek the Lord and His strength;
Seek His face evermore!
12 Remember His marvelous works which He has done,
His wonders, and the judgments of His mouth,
13 O seed of Israel His servant,
You children of Jacob, His chosen ones!
14 He is the Lord our God;
His (J)judgments are in all the earth.
15 Remember His covenant forever,
The word which He commanded, for a thousand generations,
16 The (K)covenant which He made with Abraham,
And His oath to Isaac,
17 And (L)confirmed it to (M)Jacob for a statute,
To Israel for an everlasting covenant,
18 Saying, “To you I will give the land of Canaan
As the allotment of your inheritance,”
19 When you were (N)few in number,
Indeed very few, and strangers in it.
20 When they went from one nation to another,
And from one kingdom to another people,
21 He permitted no man to do them wrong;
Yes, He (O)rebuked kings for their sakes,
22 Saying, (P)“Do not touch My anointed ones,
And do My prophets no harm.”
23 (Q)Sing to the Lord, all the earth;
Proclaim the good news of His salvation from day to day.
24 Declare His glory among the nations,
His wonders among all peoples.
25 For the Lord is great and greatly to be praised;
He is also to be feared above all gods.
26 For all the gods (R)of the peoples are [a]idols,
But the Lord made the heavens.
27 Honor and majesty are before Him;
Strength and gladness are in His place.
28 Give to the Lord, O families of the peoples,
Give to the Lord glory and strength.
29 Give to the Lord the glory due His name;
Bring an offering, and come before Him.
Oh, worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness!
30 Tremble before Him, all the earth.
The world also is firmly established,
It shall not be moved.
31 Let the heavens rejoice, and let the earth be glad;
And let them say among the nations, “The Lord reigns.”
32 Let the sea roar, and all its fullness;
Let the field rejoice, and all that is in it.
33 Then the (S)trees of the woods shall rejoice before the Lord,
For He is (T)coming to judge the earth.
34 (U)Oh, give thanks to the Lord, for He is good!
For His mercy endures forever.
35 (V)And say, “Save us, O God of our salvation;
Gather us together, and deliver us from the Gentiles,
To give thanks to Your holy name,
To triumph in Your praise.”
36 (W)Blessed be the Lord God of Israel
From everlasting to everlasting!
And all (X)the people said, “Amen!” and praised the Lord.
Regular Worship Maintained
37 So he left (Y)Asaph and his brothers there before the ark of the covenant of the Lord to minister before the ark regularly, as every day’s work (Z)required; 38 and (AA)Obed-Edom with his sixty-eight brethren, including Obed-Edom the son of Jeduthun, and Hosah, to be gatekeepers; 39 and Zadok the priest and his brethren the priests, (AB)before the tabernacle of the Lord (AC)at the [b]high place that was at Gibeon, 40 to offer burnt offerings to the Lord on the altar of burnt offering regularly (AD)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 who were chosen, who were designated by name, to give thanks to the Lord, (AE)because His mercy endures forever; 42 and with them Heman and Jeduthun, to sound aloud with trumpets and cymbals and the musical instruments of God. Now the sons of Jeduthun were gatekeepers.
43 (AF)Then all the people departed, every man to his house; and David returned to bless his house.

The Ark Placed in a Tent
16 And they brought in the ark of God and set it inside (A)the tent that David had pitched for it, and they offered burnt offerings and peace offerings before God. 2 And when David had finished offering the burnt offerings and the peace offerings, he blessed the people in the name of the Lord 3 and distributed to all Israel, both men and women, to each a loaf of bread, a portion of meat,[a] and a cake of raisins.
4 Then he appointed some of the Levites as ministers before the ark of the Lord, to invoke, to thank, and to praise the Lord, the God of Israel. 5 (B)Asaph was the chief, and second to him were Zechariah, Jeiel, Shemiramoth, Jehiel, Mattithiah, Eliab, Benaiah, Obed-edom, and Jeiel, who were to play harps and lyres; Asaph was to sound the cymbals, 6 and Benaiah and Jahaziel the priests were to blow trumpets regularly before the ark of the covenant of God. 7 Then on that day (C)David first appointed that thanksgiving be sung to the Lord by Asaph and his brothers.
David's Song of Thanks
8 (D)Oh give thanks to the Lord; (E)call upon his name;
    (F)make known his deeds among the peoples!
9 Sing to him, sing praises to him;
    tell of all his wondrous works!
10 Glory in his holy name;
    let the hearts of those who seek the Lord rejoice!
11 (G)Seek the Lord and his strength;
    seek his presence continually!
12 (H)Remember the wondrous works that he has done,
    (I)his miracles and the judgments he uttered,
13 O offspring of Israel his servant,
    children of Jacob, his chosen ones!
14 He is the Lord our God;
    (J)his judgments are in all the earth.
15 Remember his covenant forever,
    the word that he commanded, for a thousand generations,
16 the covenant (K)that he made with Abraham,
    his sworn promise to Isaac,
17 which (L)he confirmed to Jacob as a statute,
    to Israel as an everlasting covenant,
18 saying, (M)“To you I will give the land of Canaan,
    as your portion for an inheritance.”
19 When you were (N)few in number,
    of little account, and (O)sojourners in it,
20 wandering from nation to nation,
    from one kingdom to another people,
21 he allowed no one to oppress them;
    he (P)rebuked kings on their account,
22 saying, “Touch not my anointed ones,
    do my (Q)prophets no harm!”
23 (R)Sing to the Lord, all the earth!
    Tell of his salvation from day to day.
24 Declare his glory among the nations,
    his marvelous works among all the peoples!
25 For (S)great is the Lord, and greatly to be praised,
    and he is to be feared (T)above all gods.
26 For all the gods of the peoples are worthless idols,
    (U)but the Lord made the heavens.
27 Splendor and majesty are before him;
    strength and joy are in his place.
28 Ascribe to the Lord, O families of the peoples,
    (V)ascribe to the Lord glory and strength!
29 Ascribe to the Lord the glory due his name;
    bring an offering and come before him!
(W)Worship the Lord in the splendor of holiness;[b]
30     tremble before him, all the earth;
    yes, the world is established; it shall never be moved.
31 (X)Let the heavens be glad, and let the earth rejoice,
    and let them say among the nations, (Y)“The Lord reigns!”
32 (Z)Let the sea roar, and all that fills it;
    let the field exult, and everything in it!
33 Then shall the trees of the forest sing for joy
    before the Lord, for he comes to judge the earth.
34 Oh give thanks to the Lord, for he is good;
    for his steadfast love endures forever!
35 (AA)Say also:
“Save us, O God of our salvation,
    and gather and deliver us from among the nations,
that we may give thanks to your holy name
    and glory in your praise.
36 (AB)Blessed be the Lord, the God of Israel,
    from everlasting to everlasting!”
(AC)Then all the people said, “Amen!” and praised the Lord.
Worship Before the Ark
37 So David left Asaph and his brothers there (AD)before the ark of the covenant of the Lord to minister regularly before the ark (AE)as each day required, 38 and also (AF)Obed-edom and his[c] sixty-eight brothers, while (AG)Obed-edom, the son of Jeduthun, and (AH)Hosah were to be gatekeepers. 39 And he left (AI)Zadok the priest and his brothers the priests before the tabernacle of the Lord (AJ)in the high place that was at Gibeon 40 to offer burnt offerings to the Lord (AK)on the altar of burnt offering (AL)regularly morning and evening, to do all that is written in the Law of the Lord that he commanded Israel. 41 With them were (AM)Heman and Jeduthun (AN)and the rest of those chosen and (AO)expressly named to give thanks to the Lord, (AP)for his steadfast love endures forever. 42 Heman and Jeduthun had trumpets and cymbals for the music and instruments (AQ)for sacred song. The sons of Jeduthun were appointed to the gate.
43 (AR)Then all the people departed each to his house, and David went home to bless his household.
