So they brought the ark of God and placed it inside the tent that David had pitched for it. And they presented burnt offerings and peace offerings before God.
2 David loh hmueihhlutnah neh rhoepnah hmueih a tloeng te a coeng phoeiah tah pilnam te BOEIPA ming neh yoethen a paek.
When David had finished sacrificing the burnt offerings and peace offerings, he blessed the people in the name of the LORD.

Then he distributed to every man and woman of Israel a loaf of bread, a date cake, and a raisin cake.

David appointed some of the Levites to minister before the ark of the LORD, to celebrate, to give thanks, and to praise the LORD, the God of Israel.

Asaph was the chief, Zechariah was second, then Jeiel, Shemiramoth, Jehiel, Mattithiah, Eliab, Benaiah, Obed-edom, and Jeiel. They were to play the harps and lyres, while Asaph sounded the cymbals

and the priests Benaiah and Jahaziel blew the trumpets regularly before the ark of the covenant of God.
7 Te vaengah tue ah BOEIPA te lamhma la uem ham David loh Asaph neh a manuca rhoek taengah a paek.
On that day David first committed to Asaph and his brothers this song of thanksgiving to the LORD:
8 BOEIPA te uem uh lamtah, a ming te khue uh. A khoboe rhamlang te pilnam taengah ming sakuh.
“Give thanks to the LORD; call upon His name; make known His deeds among the nations.
9 Amah te hlai uh lamtah, amah te tingtoeng uh. Amah kah khobaerhambae cungkuem dongah lolmang uh lah.
Sing to Him, sing praises to Him; tell of all His wonders.

12 A saii kopoekrhai neh a ka laitloeknah bangla amah kah khobaerhambae te poek uh.
Remember the wonders He has done, His marvels, and the judgments He has pronounced,
13 Israel tiingan he amah kah sal tih, Jakob koca he amah kah a coelh ni.
O offspring of His servant Israel, O sons of Jacob, His chosen ones.
14 Amah tah mamih kah Pathen BOEIPA ni, a laitloeknah he diklai pum ah om.
He is the LORD our God; His judgments carry throughout the earth.
15 A paipi te kumhal duela poek uh. Cadilcahma thawngkhat ham khaw ol a uen coeng.
Remember His covenant forever, the word He ordained for a thousand generations—
16 Te te Abraham taengah a saii tih a olhlo te Isaak taengah a khueh.
the covenant He made with Abraham, and the oath He swore to Isaac.
17 Kumhal paipi te Israel taengkah oltlueh bangla Jakob taengah khaw a pai sak.
He confirmed it to Jacob as a decree, to Israel as an everlasting covenant:
18 “Kanaan khohmuen te Nang taengah na rho neh khoyo la kam paek ni.
‘I will give you the land of Canaan as the portion of your inheritance.’
19 Na hlang te hlangmi a yol neh a khuiah aka bakuep la om.
When they were few in number, few indeed, and strangers in the land,
20 Namtom lamloh namtom taengla, ram khat lamloh pilnam tloe taengla pongpa uh.
they wandered from nation to nation, from one kingdom to another.
21 Amih hnaemtaek ham te hlang taengla a tloeng pawt dongah amih yueng la manghai rhoek te a tluung pah.
He let no man oppress them; He rebuked kings on their behalf:
22 Ka koelh rhoek te ben uh boeh, ka tonghma rhoek taengah khaw thaehuet uh boeh.
‘Do not touch My anointed ones! Do no harm to My prophets!’
23 Diklai pum loh BOEIPA te hlai uh lah, amah kah khangnah te a hnin, hnin ah phong uh.
Sing to the LORD, all the earth. Proclaim His salvation day after day.
24 Amah thangpomnah te namtom taengah, amah kah khobaerhambae te pilnam cungkuem taengah daek uh.
Declare His glory among the nations, His wonderful deeds among all peoples.
25 BOEIPA tah len tih muep thangthen pai saeh. Pathen boeih lakah amah a rhih om pai.
For great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised; He is to be feared above all gods.
26 Pilnam kah pathen boeih tah mueirhol rhoek ni. Tedae BOEIPA loh vaan a saii.
For all the gods of the nations are idols, but it is the LORD who made the heavens.
27 A mikhmuh ah mueithennah neh rhuepomnah, a ngolnah hmuen ah a sarhi neh kohoenah om.
Splendor and majesty are before Him; strength and joy fill His dwelling.
28 Pilnam paca te BOEIPA taengah pae uh, thangpomnah neh sarhi te khaw BOEIPA taengah pae uh.
Ascribe to the LORD, O families of the nations, ascribe to the LORD glory and strength.

Ascribe to the LORD the glory due His name; bring an offering and come before Him. Worship the LORD in the splendor of His holiness;

tremble before Him, all the earth. The world is firmly established; it cannot be moved.
31 Vaan rhoek te a kohoe saeh lamtah diklai khaw omngaih saeh. Namtom rhoek taengah BOEIPA a manghai te thui uh saeh.
Let the heavens be glad, and the earth rejoice. Let them say among the nations, ‘The LORD reigns!’
32 Tuitunli neh a cungkuem khaw kawk saeh lamtah, khohmuen neh a khuikah a cungkuem loh sundaep saeh.
Let the sea resound, and all that fills it; let the fields exult, and all that is in them.
33 Diklai laitloek ham ha pawk coeng dongah duup thing rhoek khaw BOEIPA mikhmuh ah tamhoe uh saeh.
Then the trees of the forest will sing for joy before the LORD, for He is coming to judge the earth.
34 A sitlohnah te kumhal due ham a then dongah BOEIPA te uem uh.
Give thanks to the LORD, for He is good; His loving devotion endures forever.
35 “Kaimih kah khangnah Pathen, kaimih he n'khang lah. Kaimih he n'coi lamtah namtom taeng lamloh kaimih n'huul lah. Na cimcaihnah ming te uem ham neh na kohoenah dongah ka domyok uh ham khaw,” ti uh.
Then cry out: ‘Save us, O God of our salvation; gather and deliver us from the nations, that we may give thanks to Your holy name, that we may glory in Your praise.’
36 Israel Pathen BOEIPA tah, khosuen lamloh kumhal hil khaw a yoethen pai saeh. Te phoeiah pilnam boeih loh, “Amen, BOEIPA te thangthen pai saeh,” a ti uh.
Blessed be the LORD, the God of Israel, from everlasting to everlasting.” Then all the people said, “Amen!” and “Praise the LORD!”

So David left Asaph and his brothers there before the ark of the covenant of the LORD, to minister there regularly according to the daily requirements,

along with Obed-edom and his sixty-eight relatives. Obed-edom son of Jeduthun, and also Hosah, were to be gatekeepers.
39 Khosoih Zadok neh a manuca khosoih rhoek tah Gibeon hmuensang kah BOEIPA dungtlungim hmai ah,
And David left Zadok the priest and his fellow priests before the tabernacle of the LORD at the high place in Gibeon

to regularly present burnt offerings to the LORD on the altar of burnt offerings, morning and evening, according to all that was written in the Law of the LORD, which He had commanded Israel to keep.
41 Amih taengah Heman, Jeduthun neh a coelh coih rhoek khaw om. Te rhoek te tah a sitlohnah kumhal due la a om dongah BOEIPA uem ham a ming neh a phoei.
With them were Heman, Jeduthun, and the rest of those chosen and designated by name to give thanks to the LORD, for “His loving devotion endures forever.”
42 Te vaengah Heman neh Jeduthun tah amih taengah olueng neh tlaklak aka tum la, Pathen kah lumlaa hnopai neh om. Jeduthun koca rhoek te vongka taengah omuh.
Heman and Jeduthun had with them trumpets and cymbals for the music and instruments for the songs of God. And the sons of Jeduthun were stationed at the gate.
43 Te phoeiah pilnam boeih te amah im la rhip cet uh tih David khaw a imkhui te yoethen paek hamla mael van.
Then all the people departed for their homes, and David returned home to bless his household.
