Bible. Chronicles, 1st
13:015:011 And David called for Zadok and Abiathar the priests, and for
the Levites, for Uriel, Asaiah, and Joel, Shemaiah, and Eliel,
and Amminadab,
13:015:012 And said unto them, Ye are the chief of the fathers of the
Levites: sanctify yourselves, both ye and your brethren, that
ye may bring up the ark of the LORD God of Israel unto the
place that I have prepared for it.
13:015:013 For because ye did it not at the first, the LORD our God made
a breach upon us, for that we sought him not after the due
order.
13:015:014 So the priests and the Levites sanctified themselves to bring
up the ark of the LORD God of Israel.
13:015:015 And the children of the Levites bare the ark of God upon their
shoulders with the staves thereon, as Moses commanded
according to the word of the LORD.
13:015:016 And David spake to the chief of the Levites to appoint their
brethren to be the singers with instruments of musick,
psalteries and harps and cymbals, sounding, by lifting up the
voice with joy.
13:015:017 So the Levites appointed Heman the son of Joel; and of his
brethren, Asaph the son of Berechiah; and of the sons of
Merari their brethren, Ethan the son of Kushaiah;
13:015:018 And with them their brethren of the second degree, Zechariah,
Ben, and Jaaziel, and Shemiramoth, and Jehiel, and Unni,
Eliab, and Benaiah, and Maaseiah, and Mattithiah, and
Elipheleh, and Mikneiah, and Obededom, and Jeiel, the porters.
13:015:019 So the singers, Heman, Asaph, and Ethan, were appointed to
sound with cymbals of brass;
13:015:020 And Zechariah, and Aziel, and Shemiramoth, and Jehiel, and
Unni, and Eliab, and Maaseiah, and Benaiah, with psalteries on
Alamoth;
13:015:021 And Mattithiah, and Elipheleh, and Mikneiah, and Obededom, and
Jeiel, and Azaziah, with harps on the Sheminith to excel.
13:015:022 And Chenaniah, chief of the Levites, was for song: he
instructed about the song, because he was skilful.
13:015:023 And Berechiah and Elkanah were doorkeepers for the ark.
13:015:024 And Shebaniah, and Jehoshaphat, and Nethaneel, and Amasai, and
Zechariah, and Benaiah, and Eliezer, the priests, did blow
with the trumpets before the ark of God: and Obededom and
Jehiah were doorkeepers for the ark.
13:015:025 So David, and the elders of Israel, and the captains over
thousands, went to bring up the ark of the covenant of the
LORD out of the house of Obededom with joy.
13:015:026 And it came to pass, when God helped the Levites that bare the
ark of the covenant of the LORD, that they offered seven
bullocks and seven rams.
