And, when David had made an end of offering the ascending-sacrifices, and the peace-offerings, he blessed the people, in the name of Yahweh.

And he apportioned, to every one of Israel, both man and woman, - to every one, a loaf of bread, and a sweet drink, and a raisin cake.

Asaph the chief, and, second to him, Zechariah, - Jeiel, and Shemiramoth, and Jehiel, and Mattithiah, and Eliab, and Benaiah, and Obed-edom, and Jeiel, with instruments of harps, and with lyres, and Asaph with cymbals, sounding aloud:

and Benaiah and Jahaziel, the priests, - with trumpets continually, before the ark of the covenant of God.
