1 And they brought the ark of God and set it inside the tent that David had pitched for it. And they offered burnt offerings and fellowship offerings before God.
2 And when David had finished offering the burnt offerings and fellowship offerings, he blessed the people in the name of Yahweh.
3 And he distributed to every man of Israel, both men and women, to each person a loaf of bread, a cake of dates, and a cake of raisins.
4 Then he appointed some of the Levites as ministers before the ark of Yahweh, to invoke, thank, and praise Yahweh the God of Israel.
5 Asaph was chief, and his second was Zechariah; Jeiel, Shemiramoth, Jehiel, Mattithiah, Eliab, Benaiah, Obed-Edom, and Jeiel were on harps and lyres. And Asaph played on the cymbals.
6 And Benaiah and Jahaziel the priests blew on the trumpets continually before the ark of the covenant of God.
7 Then on that day David first appointed to give thanks to Yahweh by the hand of Asaph and his brothers.
