5 Asaph was their chief, and second to him were Zechariah, Uzziel, Shemiramoth, Jehiel, Mattithiah, Eliab, Benaiah, Obed-edom, and Jeiel. These were to play on harps and lyres, while Asaph was to sound the cymbals,
6 and the priests Benaiah and Jahaziel were to be the regular trumpeters before the ark of the covenant of God.
7 On that same day, David appointed Asaph and his brothers to sing for the first time these praises of the Lord:
8 Give thanks to the Lord, invoke his name;make known among the peoples his deeds.
9 Sing praise, play music;proclaim all his wondrous deeds.
10 Glory in his holy name;rejoice, O hearts that seek the Lord!
11 Rely on the mighty Lord;constantly seek his face.
