3And hee dealt to euery one of Israel, both man and woman, to euery one a loafe of bread, and a good piece of flesh, and a flagon of wine.

4¶ And he appointed certaine of the Leuites to minister before the Arke of the Lord, and to record, and to thanke and praise the Lord God of Israel,

5Asaph the chiefe, and next to him Zachariah, Ieiel, and Shemiramoth, and Iehiel, and Mattithiah, and Eliab, and Benaiah, and Obed Edom: and Ieiel with Psalteries and with harpes: but Asaph made a sound with cymbals.5

6Benaiah also and Iahaziel the Priestes, with trumpets continually before the Arke of the Couenant of God.

7¶ Then on that day, Dauid deliuered first this Psalme to thanke the Lord, into the hand of Asaph and his brethren:

8Giue thankes vnto the Lord, call vpon his name, make knowen his deeds among the people.8

9Sing vnto him, sing psalmes vnto him, talke you of all his wonderous workes.

10Glory yee in his holy Name, let the heart of them reioyce that seeke the Lord.

11Seeke the Lord, and his strength, seeke his face continually.

18Saying, vnto thee will I giue the land of Canaan, the lot of your inheritance.18

19When ye were but few, euen a few, and strangers in it:19
