(2 Samuel 6:17–19)
1
And so they took the ark of God, and they set it in the midst of the tabernacle, which David had pitched for it. And they offered holocausts and peace offerings before God.
2
And when David had completed offering holocausts and peace offerings, he blessed the people in the name of the Lord.
3
And he divided to every single one, from men even to women, a twist of bread, and a piece of roasted beef, and fine wheat flour fried with oil.
4
And he appointed some from the Levites who would minister before the ark of the Lord, and commemorate his works, and glorify and praise the Lord, the God of Israel.
5
Asaph was the leader, and second to him was Zechariah. In addition, there were Jeiel, and Shemiramoth, and Jehiel, and Mattithiah, and Eliab, and Benaiah, and Obededom. And Jeiel was over the instruments of the psaltery and the harps. But Asaph sounded out with the cymbals.
6
Truly, the priests, Benaiah and Jahaziel, were to sound the trumpet continually before the ark of the covenant of the Lord.

David’s Psalm of Thanksgiving

(Psalm 105:1–15)
7
In that day, David made Asaph the leader, in order to confess to the Lord with his brothers:
8
“Confess to the Lord, and invoke his name. Make known his endeavors among the peoples.
9
Sing to him, and sing psalms to him, and describe all his miracles.
10
Praise his holy name! Let the heart of those who seek the Lord rejoice!
11
Seek the Lord and his virtue. Seek his face always.
12
Remember his miracles, which he has accomplished, his signs, and the judgments of his mouth.
13
O offspring of Israel, his servants! O sons of Jacob, his elect!
14
He is the Lord our God. His judgments are throughout all the earth.
15
Remember forever his covenant, the word that he instructed unto a thousand generations,
16
the covenant that he formed with Abraham, and his oath with Isaac.
17
And he appointed the same to Jacob as a precept, and to Israel as an everlasting pact,
18
saying: ‘To you, I will give the land of Canaan, the lot of your inheritance.’
19
At that time, they were small in number, they were few and were settlers there.
20
And they passed through, from nation to nation, and from one kingdom to another people.
21
He did not permit anyone to falsely accuse them. Instead, he reproved kings on their behalf:
22
‘Do not touch my Christ. And do not malign my prophets.’(a)

Sing to the LORD, All the Earth

(Psalm 96:1–13)
23
Sing to the Lord, all the earth! Announce his salvation, from day to day.
24
Describe his glory among the Gentiles, his miracles among all the peoples.
25
For the Lord is great and exceedingly praiseworthy. And he is terrible, above all gods.
26
For all the gods of the peoples are idols. But the Lord made the heavens.
27
Confession and magnificence are before him. Strength and gladness are in his place.
28
Bring to the Lord, O families of the peoples, bring to the Lord glory and dominion.
29
Give glory to the Lord, to his name. Lift up sacrifice, and approach before his sight. And adore the Lord in holy attire.
30
Let all the earth be moved before his face. For he founded the globe immoveable.
31
Let the heavens rejoice, and let the earth exult. And let them say among the nations, ‘The Lord has reigned.’
32
Let the sea roar, with all its plenitude. Let the fields exult, with all that is in them.
33
Then the trees of the forest will give praise before the Lord. For he comes to judge the earth.
34
Confess to the Lord, for he is good. For his mercy is eternal.
35
And say: ‘Save us, O God our savior! And gather us together, and rescue us from the nations, so that we may confess to your holy name, and may exult in your songs.
36
Blessed be the Lord, the God of Israel, from eternity to eternity.’ And let all the people say, ‘Amen,’ and let them sing a hymn to the Lord.”(b)

Worship before the Ark

37
And so, there before the ark of the covenant of the Lord, he left Asaph and his brothers, so that they might minister in the sight of the ark continually, throughout each day, and in their turns.
38
Now Obededom and his brothers were sixty-eight. And he appointed Obededom, the son of Jeduthun, and Hosah to be porters.
39
But Zadok the priest, and his brothers the priests, were before the tabernacle of the Lord in the high place, which was in Gibeon,
40
so that they could offer holocausts to the Lord upon the altar of holocausts continually, morning and evening, according to all that was written in the law of the Lord, which he instructed to Israel.
41
And after him, Heman, and Jeduthun, and the remainder of the elect, each one by his name, were appointed to confess to the Lord: “For his mercy endures forever.”
42
Also Heman and Jeduthun sounded the trumpet, and they played upon the cymbals, and upon every kind of musical instrument, in order to sing praises to God. But the sons of Jeduthun he made to be porters.
43
And all the people returned to their houses, and David also, so that he might bless his own house too.

David’s Psalm of Thanksgiving

(Psalm 105:1–15)
7
Then on that day David first ordained giving of thanks to the LORD by the hand of Asaph and his brothers.
8
Oh give thanks to the LORD. Call on his name. Make what he has done known among the peoples.
9
Sing to him. Sing praises to him. Tell of all his marvelous works.
10
Glory in his holy name. Let the heart of those who seek the LORD rejoice.
11
Seek the LORD and his strength. Seek his face forever more.
12
Remember his marvelous works that he has done, his wonders, and the judgments of his mouth,
13
you offspring (a) of Israel his servant, you children of Jacob, his chosen ones.
14
He is the LORD our God. His judgments are in all the earth.
15
Remember his covenant forever, the word which he commanded to a thousand generations,
16
the covenant which he made with Abraham, his oath to Isaac.
17
He confirmed it to Jacob for a statute, and to Israel for an everlasting covenant,
18
saying, “I will give you the land of Canaan, The lot of your inheritance,”
19
when you were but a few men in number, yes, very few, and foreigners in it.
20
They went about from nation to nation, from one kingdom to another people.
21
He allowed no man to do them wrong. Yes, he reproved kings for their sakes,
22
“Don’t touch my anointed ones! Do my prophets no harm!”

Sing to the LORD, All the Earth

(Psalm 96:1–13)
23
Sing to the LORD, all the earth! Display his salvation from day to day.
24
Declare his glory among the nations, and his marvelous works among all the peoples.
25
For great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised. He also is to be feared above all gods.
26
For all the gods of the peoples are idols, but the LORD made the heavens.
27
Honor and majesty are before him. Strength and gladness are in his place.
28
Ascribe to the LORD, you families of the peoples, ascribe to the LORD glory and strength!
29
Ascribe to the LORD the glory due to his name. Bring an offering, and come before him. Worship the LORD in holy array.
30
Tremble before him, all the earth. The world also is established that it can’t be moved.
31
Let the heavens be glad, and let the earth rejoice! Let them say among the nations, “The LORD reigns!”
32
Let the sea roar, and its fullness! Let the field exult, and all that is in it!
33
Then the trees of the forest will sing for joy before the LORD, for he comes to judge the earth.
34
Oh give thanks to the LORD, for he is good, for his loving kindness endures forever.
35
Say, “Save us, God of our salvation! Gather us together and deliver us from the nations, to give thanks to your holy name, to triumph in your praise.”
36
Blessed be the LORD, the God of Israel, from everlasting even to everlasting. All the people said, “Amen,” and praised the LORD.

Worship before the Ark

37
So he left Asaph and his brothers there before the ark of the LORD’s covenant, to minister before the ark continually, as every day’s work required;
38
and Obed-Edom with their sixty-eight relatives; Obed-Edom also the son of Jeduthun and Hosah to be doorkeepers;
39
and Zadok the priest and his brothers the priests, before the LORD’s tabernacle in the high place that was at Gibeon,
40
to offer burnt offerings to the LORD on the altar of burnt offering continually morning and evening, even according to all that is written in the LORD’s law, which he commanded to Israel;
41
and with them Heman and Jeduthun and the rest who were chosen, who were mentioned by name, to give thanks to the LORD, because his loving kindness endures forever;
42
and with them Heman and Jeduthun with trumpets and cymbals for those that should sound aloud, and with instruments for the songs of God, and the sons of Jeduthun to be at the gate.
43
All the people departed, each man to his house; and David returned to bless his house.
