When David had finished offering the burnt offering and the peace offerings, he blessed the people in the LORD’s name.

He appointed some of the Levites to minister before the LORD’s ark, and to commemorate, to thank, and to praise the LORD, the God of Israel:

Asaph the chief, and second to him Zechariah, then Jeiel, Shemiramoth, Jehiel, Mattithiah, Eliab, Benaiah, Obed-Edom, and Jeiel, with stringed instruments and with harps; and Asaph with cymbals, sounding aloud;
6 Vaihma Benaiah hoi Jahaziel ni Cathut e lawkkam thingkong e hmalah mongka kamrawicalah a ueng roi.
with Benaiah and Jahaziel the priests with trumpets continually, before the ark of the covenant of God.

All the people departed, each man to his house; and David returned to bless his house.
