015:008 of the sons of Elizaphan, Shemaiah the chief, and his
brothers two hundred;
015:009 of the sons of Hebron, Eliel the chief, and his brothers eighty;
015:010 of the sons of Uzziel, Amminadab the chief, and his brothers
one hundred twelve.
015:011 David called for Zadok and Abiathar the priests, and for the Levites,
for Uriel, Asaiah, and Joel, Shemaiah, and Eliel, and Amminadab,
015:012 and said to them, You are the heads of the fathers' [houses] of
the Levites: sanctify yourselves, both you and your brothers,
that you may bring up the ark of Yahweh, the God of Israel,
to [the place] that I have prepared for it.
015:013 For because you didn't carry it at the first, Yahweh our God
made a breach on us, because we didn't seek him according
to the ordinance.
015:014 So the priests and the Levites sanctified themselves to bring
up the ark of Yahweh, the God of Israel.
015:015 The children of the Levites bore the ark of God on their
shoulders with the poles thereon, as Moses commanded according
to the word of Yahweh.
015:016 David spoke to the chief of the Levites to appoint their brothers
the singers, with instruments of music, stringed instruments
and harps and cymbals, sounding aloud and lifting up
the voice with joy.
015:017 So the Levites appointed Heman the son of Joel; and of his brothers,
Asaph the son of Berechiah; and of the sons of Merari
their brothers, Ethan the son of Kushaiah;
015:018 and with them their brothers of the second degree, Zechariah, Ben,
and Jaaziel, and Shemiramoth, and Jehiel, and Unni, Eliab,
and Benaiah, and Maaseiah, and Mattithiah, and Eliphelehu,
and Mikneiah, and Obed-Edom, and Jeiel, the doorkeepers.
015:019 So the singers, Heman, Asaph, and Ethan, [were appointed]
with cymbals of brass to sound aloud;
015:020 and Zechariah, and Aziel, and Shemiramoth, and Jehiel, and Unni,
and Eliab, and Maaseiah, and Benaiah, with stringed instruments
set to Alamoth;
015:021 and Mattithiah, and Eliphelehu, and Mikneiah, and Obed-Edom,
and Jeiel, and Azaziah, with harps tuned to the eight-stringed
lyre, to lead.
015:022 Chenaniah, chief of the Levites, was over the song:
he instructed about the song, because he was skillful.
015:023 Berechiah and Elkanah were doorkeepers for the ark.
015:024 Shebaniah, and Joshaphat, and Nethanel, and Amasai,
and Zechariah, and Benaiah, and Eliezer, the priests,
did blow the trumpets before the ark of God: and Obed-Edom
and Jehiah were doorkeepers for the ark.
015:025 So David, and the elders of Israel, and the captains over thousands,
went to bring up the ark of the covenant of Yahweh out of
the house of Obed-Edom with joy.
