So the Levites appointed Heman son of Joel, and from his brothers, Asaph the son of Berekiah, and from the sons of Merari, their brothers, Ethan the son of Kushaiah;

Now the singers, Heman, Asaph, and Ethan, [were] to sound bronze cymbals;

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.

Then on that day David first appointed to give thanks to Yahweh by the hand of Asaph and his brothers. Give thanks to Yahweh; call upon his name; make known his deeds among the nations! Sing to him; sing praises to him; tell of his wondrous works! read more.
Glory in his holy name; let the hearts of those seeking Yahweh rejoice! Seek Yahweh and his strength; seek his face continually! Remember his wonderful works that he has done, his wonders and the judgments of his mouth, O offspring of Israel, his servant, O sons of Jacob, his chosen ones! He [is] Yahweh our God; his judgments [are] in all the earth. Remember his covenant forever, the word he commanded for a thousand generations, that he {made} with Abraham, his sworn oath to Isaac. And he confirmed it to Jacob as a statute, an everlasting covenant to Israel, saying, "To you I will give the land of Canaan, the portion of your inheritance." When you were few in number, little, and sojourners [were] in it, when they wandered from nation to nation, and from one kingdom to another people, he did not allow anyone to oppress them, and he rebuked kings on their account, [saying,] "You must not touch my anointed nor do harm to my prophets!" Sing to Yahweh, all the earth! Proclaim his salvation from day to day! Proclaim his glory among the nations, his wondrous works among the peoples! For Yahweh [is] great and greatly praised, and he is feared among all gods. For all the gods of the nations [are] idols, but Yahweh made the heavens. Splendor and majesty [are] before him; strength and joy [are] in his place. Ascribe to Yahweh, O clans of the nations, ascribe to Yahweh glory and strength! Ascribe to Yahweh the glory of his name! Lift up an offering and come before him! Bow down to Yahweh in the splendor of holiness! Tremble before him, all the earth; surely the world shall not be shaken. Let the heavens rejoice, and let the earth be glad, and let them tell the peoples, "Yahweh reigns!" Let the sea roar and its fullness; let the field rejoice and all that [is] in it. Then the trees of the forest shall sing for joy before Yahweh, for he comes to judge the earth. Oh give thanks to Yahweh, for he [is] good; his loyal love [is] everlasting. Then say, "Save us, O God of our salvation; gather us and rescue us from the nations that [we may] give thanks to your holy name [and] glory in your praise. Blessed be Yahweh the God of Israel, from everlasting to everlasting!" Then all the people said, "Amen!" and praised Yahweh.


All these [were] under the {direction} of their father in the music of the house of Yahweh, with cymbals, harps, and stringed instruments for the service of the house of God. Asaph, Jeduthun, and Heman [were] under the {direction} of the king.

Then he appointed some of the Levites as ministers before the ark of Yahweh, to invoke, thank, and praise Yahweh the God of Israel. 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. And Benaiah and Jahaziel the priests [blew] on the trumpets continually before the ark of the covenant of God. read more.
