27Splendor and majesty are in his presence. Strength and joy are where he is.
28"Give to the LORD, you families of the nations. Give to the LORD glory and power.
29Give to the LORD the glory his name deserves. Bring an offering, and come to him. Worship the LORD in [his] holy splendor.
30Tremble in his presence, all the earth! "The earth stands firm; it cannot be moved.
31Let the heavens rejoice and the earth be glad. Say to the nations, 'The LORD rules as king!'
32Let the sea and everything in it roar like thunder. Let the fields and everything in them rejoice.
33Then the trees in the forest will sing with joy in the presence of the LORD when he comes to judge the earth.
34"Give thanks to the LORD because he is good, because his mercy endures forever.
35Say, 'Rescue us, O God our Savior. Gather us and save us from the nations so that we may give thanks to your holy name and make your praise our glory.'
36Thanks be to the LORD God of Israel from everlasting to everlasting." Then all the people said amen and praised the LORD.
37David left Asaph and his relatives to serve continually in front of the ark of the LORD's promise, as the daily work required. 38David also left Obed Edom and 68 of his relatives [to serve there]. Obed Edom (Jeduthun's son) and Hosah were to be gatekeepers. 39David left Zadok and his priestly relatives to serve in the LORD's tent at the place of worship in Gibeon. 40They were ordered to sacrifice burnt offerings to the LORD. This happened on the altar of burnt offerings continually, morning and evening, as written in the LORD's Teachings that he gave Israel. 41With Zadok and his relatives were Heman, Jeduthun, and the rest of the Levites who had been selected, chosen by name, to give thanks to the LORD [by singing,] "His mercy endures forever." 42Also, Heman and Jeduthun played trumpets, cymbals, and the [other] musical instruments that accompany sacred songs. Jeduthun's sons were stationed at the gate.
43Then all the people went home. David went back to bless his family.
