These are the men to whom David handed responsibility for music in the Temple of the LORD, after the ark came to rest there.

Chenaniah, music leader for the descendants of Levi, served as music director, because he was expert at it.

David wore a robe made from fine linen, as did all of the descendants of Levi who were carrying the ark, the singers, and Chenaniah the music and choir director. David also wore a linen ephod.

All of Israel were bringing up the Ark of the Covenant of the LORD, accompanied by shouting, sounding of horns, trumpets, and cymbals, along with loud music on harps and lyres.

They were all under their father's supervision regarding music in the Temple of the LORD with cymbals, harps, and lyres for the service of the Temple of God.

With the lyre, give thanks to the LORD; with the ten stringed harp, play music to him;

My heart is committed, God, my heart is committed, so I will sing and play music.

I will exalt you among the nations, Lord. I will play music among the nations.

Blessed be God, who did not turn away my prayers nor his gracious love from me. To the Director of music: Accompanied by stringed instruments. A Psalm. A song.

May God truly bless us so that all the nations of the earth will fear him. To the Director of music: A Psalm. A song.

The descendants of his servants will inherit it, and those who cherish his name will live there. To the Music director. Davidic. As a memorial.

Then we, your people, the sheep of your pasture, will praise you always, from generation to generation. We will declare your praise. For the Director of Music: According to "The Lilies". A testimony of Asaph. A psalm.

The LORD will complete what his purpose is for me. LORD, your gracious love is eternal; do not abandon your personal work in me. To the Music Director: A Davidic Song

See if there is any offensive tendency in me, and lead me in the eternal way. To the Music Director: A Davidic Song

Sing to the LORD with thanksgiving, and compose music to our God with the lyre.

The LORD will save me, and we will play my music on strings all the days of our lives in the LORD's Temple.

Our elders have ceased ruling at the gate; our young men have abandoned their music.

""I'll silence the noise of your songs and the music of your harps won't be heard anymore.

A prayer by the prophet Habakkuk, set to music.
