1 They brought in God’s chest and placed it inside the tent David had pitched for it. Then they brought entirely burned offerings and well-being sacrifices before God.
2 When David had finished offering the entirely burned offerings and the well-being sacrifices, he blessed the people in the Lord’s name
3 and distributed a loaf of bread, a piece of meat, and a raisin cake to every Israelite man and woman.
4 David appointed some of the Levites to serve before the Lord’s chest in order to remember, to give thanks, and to praise the Lord, Israel’s God:
5 Asaph was the leader, and Zechariah his assistant; also Jeiel, Shemiramoth, Jehiel, Mattithiah, Eliab, Benaiah, Obed-edom, and Jeiel with harps and lyres; Asaph sounding the cymbals;
6 and the priests Benaiah and Jahaziel blowing trumpets regularly before the chest containing God’s covenant.
