Literal Standard Version 2020

- Kapitel 16 -

(2 Samuel 6:17–19)
1
And they bring in the Ark of God, and set it up in the midst of the tent that David has stretched out for it, and they bring burnt-offerings and peace-offerings near before God;
2
and David ceases from offering the burnt-offering and the peace-offerings, and blesses the people in the Name of YHWH,
3
and gives a portion to every man of Israel, both man and woman: to each a cake of bread, and a measure of wine, and a grape-cake.
4
And he puts before the Ark of YHWH, those ministering from the Levites, even to make mention of, and to thank, and to give praise to YHWH, God of Israel:
5
Asaph the head, and his second Zechariah; Jeiel, and Shemiramoth, and Jehiel, and Mattithiah, and Eliab, and Benaiah, and Obed-Edom, and Jeiel, with instruments of psalteries, and with harps; and Asaph is sounding with cymbals;
6
and Benaiah and Jahaziel the priests [are] continually [sounding] with trumpets before the Ark of the Covenant of God.

David’s Psalm of Thanksgiving

(Psalm 105:1–15)
7
On that day, at that time, David has given at the beginning to give thanks to YHWH by the hand of Asaph and his brothers:
8
Give thanks to YHWH, call on His Name, || Make His doings known among the peoples.
9
Sing to Him, sing psalms to Him, || Meditate on all His wonders.
10
Boast yourselves in His Holy Name, || The heart of those seeking YHWH rejoices.
11
Seek YHWH and His strength, || Seek His face continually.
12
Remember His wonders that He did, || His signs, and the judgments of His mouth,
13
O seed of Israel, His servant, || O sons of Jacob, His chosen ones!
14
He [is] our God YHWH, || His judgments [are] in all the earth.
15
Remember His covenant for all time, || The word He commandedTo one thousand generations,
16
Which He has made with Abraham, || And His oathto Isaac,
17
And He establishes it to Jacob for a statute, || To Israel [for] a perpetual covenant,
18
Saying, To you I give the land of Canaan, || The portion of your inheritance,
19
When you were few in number, || As a little thing, and sojourners in it.
20
And they go up and down, || From nation to nation, || And from a kingdom to another people.
21
He has not permitted any to oppress them, || And reproves kings on their account:
22
Do not come against My anointed ones, || And do no evil against My prophets.

Sing to the LORD, All the Earth

(Psalm 96:1–13)
23
Sing to YHWH, all the earth, || Proclaim His salvation from day to day.
24
Recount His glory among nations, || His wonders among all the peoples.
25
For great [is] YHWH, and greatly praised, || And He [is] fearful above all gods.
26
For all gods of the peoples [are] nothing, || And YHWH has made the heavens.
27
Splendor and majesty [are] before Him, || Strength and joy [are] in His place.
28
Ascribe to YHWH, you families of peoples, || Ascribe to YHWH glory and strength.
29
Ascribe to YHWH the glory of His Name, || Lift up a present, and come before Him. Bow yourselves to YHWH, || In the beauty of holiness.
30
Be pained before Him, all the earth; Also, the world is established, || It is not moved!
31
The heavens rejoice, and the earth is glad, || And they say among nations, YHWH has reigned!
32
The sea roars, and its fullness, || The field exults, and all that [is] in it,
33
Then trees of the forest sing, || From the presence of YHWH, || For He has come to judge the earth!
34
Give thanks to YHWH, for [He is] good, || For His kindness [is] for all time,
35
And say, Save us, O God of our salvation, || And gather us, and deliver us from the nations, || To give thanks to Your Holy Name, || To triumph in Your praise.
36
Blessed [is] YHWH, God of Israel, || From age to age”; And all the people say, “Amen,” and have given praise to YHWH.

38
both Obed-Edom and their sixty-eight brothers, and Obed-Edom son of Jeduthun, and Hosah, for gatekeepers;
39
and Zadok the priest, and his brothers the priests, before the Dwelling Place of YHWH, in a high place that [is] in Gibeon,
40
to cause burnt-offerings to ascend continually to YHWH on the altar of burnt-offering, morning and evening, and for all that is written in the Law of YHWH that He charged on Israel.
41
And with them [are] Heman and Jeduthun, and the rest of those chosen, who were defined by name, to give thanks to YHWH, for His kindness [is] for all time;
42
and with themHeman and Jeduthun—[are] trumpets and cymbals for those sounding, and instruments of the song of God, and the sons of Jeduthun [are] at the gate.
43
And all the people go, each to his house, and David turns around to bless his house.
