16 Then Aaron’s sons cheered;they blew trumpetsmade of hammered metaland caused a great sound to be heardas a reminder before the Most High.
17 Then all at once, all the peopleput their faces to the ground,bowing down to worship their Lord,the almighty, God Most High.
18 The singers, accompanied by harps,sang praises with their voices;they made a sweet melodywith a full-bodied sound.
19 The people of the Lord Most Highoffered prayers before the merciful oneuntil the order of the Lord’s servicewas completed,and they finished theirworship duties to him.
20 Then Simon came downand raised his handsover the entire assemblyof the Israelitesto give the Lord’s blessing from his lipsand to glorify his name.
21 And they bowed down to worshipa second time,to receive the blessingfrom the Most High.
22 Now bless the God of allwho everywhere does great things,who raises us up from our birthand deals mercifully with us.
