1 And they brought in the ark of God, and set it in the midst of the tent that David had pitched for it; and they offered burnt-offerings and peace-offerings before God.
So they brought in the Arke of God, and set it in the middes of the Tabernacle that Dauid had pitched for it, and they offred burnt offrings and peace offrings before God.
2 And when David had made an end of offering the burnt-offerings and the peace-offerings, he blessed the people in the name of the Lord.
And when Dauid had made an ende of offering the burnt offering and the peace offerings, hee blessed the people in the Name of the Lord.
3 And he dealt out to every one of Israel, both man and woman, to every one a loaf of bread, and a piece of flesh, and a flagon of wine.
And he dealt to euery one of Israel both man and woman, to euery one a cake of breade, and a piece of flesh, and a bottel of wine.
4 And he placed before the ark of the Lord several of the Levites as ministers, and to chaunt hymns, and to give praise and thanks unto the Lord the God of Israel:
And he appointed certaine of the Leuites to minister before the Arke of the Lord, and to rehearse and to thanke and prayse the Lord God of Israel:
5 Assaph the chief, and next to him Zechariah; Je'iel, and Shemiramoth, and Jechiel, and Matthithyah, and Eliab, and Benayahu, and 'Obed-edom; and Je'iel with psalteries and with harps; but Assaph played aloud with the cymbals.

6 And Benayahu and Jachaziel the priests were with the trumpets continually before the ark of the covenant of God.
And Benaiah and Iahaziel Priestes, with trumpets continually before the Arke of the couenant of God.
7 On that day—then did David appoint for the first time to give thanks to the Lord through means of Assaph and his brethren.
Then at that time Dauid did appoint at the beginning to giue thankes to the Lord by the hand of Asaph and his brethren.
8 O give thanks unto the Lord; call on his name; make known among the people his deeds.

19 When ye were but few men in number; yea, very few, and strangers in it.
When ye were fewe in number, yea, a very fewe, and strangers therein,
20 And when they wandered from one nation to another, and from one kingdom to another people:
And walked about from nation to nation, and from one kingdome to another people,
21 He suffered no man to oppress them; yea, he reproved kings for their sake.
He suffered no man to do them wrong, but rebuked Kings for their sakes, saying,
22 Saying, “Touch not my anointed, and do my prophets no harm.”—
Touch not mine anoynted, and doe my Prophets no harme.

28 Ascribe unto the Lord, O ye families of people, ascribe unto the Lord glory and strength.
Giue vnto the Lord, ye families of the people: giue vnto the Lord glory and power.
29 Ascribe unto the Lord the glory due unto his name; take up an offering, and come into his presence; bow down before the Lord in the beauty of holiness.
Giue vnto the Lord ye glory of his Name: bring an offring and come before him, and worship the Lord in the glorious Sanctuarie.
30 Tremble before him, all ye lands! Also the world standeth firmly, that it be not moved.
