I Paralipomenon 16

And they bring in the Ark of God, and set it up in the midst of the tent that David has stretched out for it, and they bring burnt-offerings and peace-offerings near before God;

and David ceases from offering the burnt-offering and the peace-offerings, and blesses the people in the Name of YHWH,
3 et divisit universis per singulos a viro usque ad mulierem tortam panis et partem assae carnis bubulae et frixam oleo similam
