- 25:1 Moreover David and the captains of the host separated to the service of the sons of Asaph, and of Heman, and of Jeduthun, who should prophesy with harps, with psalteries, and with cymbals: and the number of the workmen according to their service was:

- 25:3 Of Jeduthun: the sons of Jeduthun; Gedaliah, and Zeri, and Jeshaiah, Hashabiah, and Mattithiah, six, under the hands of their father Jeduthun, who prophesied with a harp, to give thanks and to praise the LORD.

- 25:5 All these were the sons of Heman the king’s seer in the words of God, to lift up the horn. And God gave to Heman fourteen sons and three daughters.
- 25:6 All these were under the hands of their father for song in the house of the LORD, with cymbals, psalteries, and harps, for the service of the house of God, according to the king’s order to Asaph, Jeduthun, and Heman.
- 25:7 So the number of them, with their brothers that were instructed in the songs of the LORD, even all that were cunning, was two hundred fourscore and eight.
- 25:8 And they cast lots, ward against ward, as well the small as the great, the teacher as the scholar.

- 24:1 Now these are the divisions of the sons of Aaron. The sons of Aaron; Nadab, and Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar.
- 24:2 But Nadab and Abihu died before their father, and had no children: therefore Eleazar and Ithamar executed the priest’s office.
- 24:3 And David distributed them, both Zadok of the sons of Eleazar, and Ahimelech of the sons of Ithamar, according to their offices in their service.
- 24:4 And there were more chief men found of the sons of Eleazar than of the sons of Ithamar, and thus were they divided. Among the sons of Eleazar there were sixteen chief men of the house of their fathers, and eight among the sons of Ithamar according to the house of their fathers.
- 24:5 Thus were they divided by lot, one sort with another; for the governors of the sanctuary, and governors of the house of God, were of the sons of Eleazar, and of the sons of Ithamar.
- 24:6 And Shemaiah the son of Nethaneel the scribe, one of the Levites, wrote them before the king, and the princes, and Zadok the priest, and Ahimelech the son of Abiathar, and before the chief of the fathers of the priests and Levites: one principal household being taken for Eleazar, and one taken for Ithamar.

- 24:16 The nineteenth to Pethahiah, the twentieth to Jehezekel,
- 24:17 The one and twentieth to Jachin, the two and twentieth to Gamul,
- 24:18 The three and twentieth to Delaiah, the four and twentieth to Maaziah.
- 24:19 These were the orderings of them in their service to come into the house of the LORD, according to their manner, under Aaron their father, as the LORD God of Israel had commanded him.
- 24:20 And the rest of the sons of Levi were these: Of the sons of Amram; Shubael: of the sons of Shubael; Jehdeiah.
- 24:21 Concerning Rehabiah: of the sons of Rehabiah, the first was Isshiah.

- 24:29 Concerning Kish: the son of Kish was Jerahmeel.
- 24:30 The sons also of Mushi; Mahli, and Eder, and Jerimoth. These were the sons of the Levites after the house of their fathers.
- 24:31 These likewise cast lots over against their brothers the sons of Aaron in the presence of David the king, and Zadok, and Ahimelech, and the chief of the fathers of the priests and Levites, even the principal fathers over against their younger brothers.

- 23:1 So when David was old and full of days, he made Solomon his son king over Israel.
- 23:2 And he gathered together all the princes of Israel, with the priests and the Levites.
- 23:3 Now the Levites were numbered from the age of thirty years and upward: and their number by their polls, man by man, was thirty and eight thousand.
- 23:4 Of which, twenty and four thousand were to set forward the work of the house of the LORD; and six thousand were officers and judges:
- 23:5 Moreover four thousand were porters; and four thousand praised the LORD with the instruments which I made, said David, to praise therewith.
- 23:6 And David divided them into courses among the sons of Levi, namely, Gershon, Kohath, and Merari.
- 23:7 Of the Gershonites were, Laadan, and Shimei.
- 23:8 The sons of Laadan; the chief was Jehiel, and Zetham, and Joel, three.
- 23:9 The sons of Shimei; Shelomith, and Haziel, and Haran, three. These were the chief of the fathers of Laadan.
- 23:10 And the sons of Shimei were, Jahath, Zina, and Jeush, and Beriah.
- These four were the sons of Shimei.
- 23:11 And Jahath was the chief, and Zizah the second: but Jeush and Beriah had not many sons; therefore they were in one reckoning, according to their father’s house.
- 23:12 The sons of Kohath; Amram, Izhar, Hebron, and Uzziel, four.
- 23:13 The sons of Amram; Aaron and Moses: and Aaron was separated, that he should sanctify the most holy things, he and his sons for ever, to burn incense before the LORD, to minister to him, and to bless in his name for ever.
- 23:14 Now concerning Moses the man of God, his sons were named of the tribe of Levi.
- 23:15 The sons of Moses were, Gershom, and Eliezer.
- 23:16 Of the sons of Gershom, Shebuel was the chief.
- 23:17 And the sons of Eliezer were, Rehabiah the chief. And Eliezer had none other sons; but the sons of Rehabiah were very many.
- 23:18 Of the sons of Izhar; Shelomith the chief.
- 23:19 Of the sons of Hebron; Jeriah the first, Amariah the second, Jahaziel the third, and Jekameam the fourth.
- 23:20 Of the sons of Uzziel; Micah the first and Jesiah the second.
- 23:21 The sons of Merari; Mahli, and Mushi. The sons of Mahli; Eleazar, and Kish.
- 23:22 And Eleazar died, and had no sons, but daughters: and their brothers the sons of Kish took them.
- 23:23 The sons of Mushi; Mahli, and Eder, and Jeremoth, three.
- 23:24 These were the sons of Levi after the house of their fathers; even the chief of the fathers, as they were counted by number of names by their polls, that did the work for the service of the house of the LORD, from the age of twenty years and upward.
- 23:25 For David said, The LORD God of Israel has given rest to his people, that they may dwell in Jerusalem for ever:
- 23:26 And also to the Levites; they shall no more carry the tabernacle, nor any vessels of it for the service thereof.
- 23:27 For by the last words of David the Levites were numbered from twenty years old and above:
- 23:28 Because their office was to wait on the sons of Aaron for the service of the house of the LORD, in the courts, and in the chambers, and in the purifying of all holy things, and the work of the service of the house of God;
- 23:29 Both for the show bread, and for the fine flour for meat offering, and for the unleavened cakes, and for that which is baked in the pan, and for that which is fried, and for all manner of measure and size;
- 23:30 And to stand every morning to thank and praise the LORD, and likewise at even:
- 23:31 And to offer all burnt sacrifices to the LORD in the sabbaths, in the new moons, and on the set feasts, by number, according to the order commanded to them, continually before the LORD:
- 23:32 And that they should keep the charge of the tabernacle of the congregation, and the charge of the holy place, and the charge of the sons of Aaron their brothers, in the service of the house of the LORD.

- 22:1 Then David said, This is the house of the LORD God, and this is the altar of the burnt offering for Israel.
- 22:2 And David commanded to gather together the strangers that were in the land of Israel; and he set masons to hew worked stones to build the house of God.
- 22:3 And David prepared iron in abundance for the nails for the doors of the gates, and for the joinings; and brass in abundance without weight;
- 22:4 Also cedar trees in abundance: for the Zidonians and they of Tyre brought much cedar wood to David.
- 22:5 And David said, Solomon my son is young and tender, and the house that is to be built for the LORD must be exceeding magnificent, of fame and of glory throughout all countries: I will therefore now make preparation for it. So David prepared abundantly before his death.
- 22:6 Then he called for Solomon his son, and charged him to build an house for the LORD God of Israel.
- 22:7 And David said to Solomon, My son, as for me, it was in my mind to build an house to the name of the LORD my God:
- 22:8 But the word of the LORD came to me, saying, You have shed blood abundantly, and have made great wars: you shall not build an house to my name, because you have shed much blood on the earth in my sight.
- 22:9 Behold, a son shall be born to you, who shall be a man of rest; and I will give him rest from all his enemies round about: for his name shall be Solomon, and I will give peace and quietness to Israel in his days.
- 22:10 He shall build an house for my name; and he shall be my son, and I will be his father; and I will establish the throne of his kingdom over Israel for ever.
- 22:11 Now, my son, the LORD be with you; and prosper you, and build the house of the LORD your God, as he has said of you.
- 22:12 Only the LORD give you wisdom and understanding, and give you charge concerning Israel, that you may keep the law of the LORD your God.
- 22:13 Then shall you prosper, if you take heed to fulfill the statutes and judgments which the LORD charged Moses with concerning Israel: be strong, and of good courage; dread not, nor be dismayed.
- 22:14 Now, behold, in my trouble I have prepared for the house of the LORD an hundred thousand talents of gold, and a thousand thousand talents of silver; and of brass and iron without weight; for it is in abundance: timber also and stone have I prepared; and you may add thereto.
- 22:15 Moreover there are workmen with you in abundance, hewers and workers of stone and timber, and all manner of cunning men for every manner of work.
- 22:16 Of the gold, the silver, and the brass, and the iron, there is no number. Arise therefore, and be doing, and the LORD be with you.
- 22:17 David also commanded all the princes of Israel to help Solomon his son, saying,
- 22:18 Is not the LORD your God with you? and has he not given you rest on every side? for he has given the inhabitants of the land into my hand; and the land is subdued before the LORD, and before his people.
- 22:19 Now set your heart and your soul to seek the LORD your God; arise therefore, and build you the sanctuary of the LORD God, to bring the ark of the covenant of the LORD, and the holy vessels of God, into the house that is to be built to the name of the LORD.
1 Chronicles 21

- 21:1 And Satan stood up against Israel, and provoked David to number Israel.
- 21:2 And David said to Joab and to the rulers of the people, Go, number Israel from Beersheba even to Dan; and bring the number of them to me, that I may know it.
- 21:3 And Joab answered, The LORD make his people an hundred times so many more as they be: but, my lord the king, are they not all my lord’s servants? why then does my lord require this thing? why will he be a cause of trespass to Israel?
- 21:4 Nevertheless the king’s word prevailed against Joab. Why Joab departed, and went throughout all Israel, and came to Jerusalem.
- 21:5 And Joab gave the sum of the number of the people to David. And all they of Israel were a thousand thousand and an hundred thousand men that drew sword: and Judah was four hundred three score and ten thousand men that drew sword.
- 21:6 But Levi and Benjamin counted he not among them: for the king’s word was abominable to Joab.
- 21:7 And God was displeased with this thing; therefore he smote Israel.
- 21:8 And David said to God, I have sinned greatly, because I have done this thing: but now, I beseech you, do away the iniquity of your servant; for I have done very foolishly.
- 21:9 And the LORD spoke to Gad, David’s seer, saying,
- 21:10 Go and tell David, saying, Thus said the LORD, I offer you three things: choose you one of them, that I may do it to you.
- 21:11 So Gad came to David, and said to him, Thus said the LORD, Choose you
- 21:12 Either three years’ famine; or three months to be destroyed before your foes, while that the sword of your enemies overtakes you; or else three days the sword of the LORD, even the pestilence, in the land, and the angel of the LORD destroying throughout all the coasts of Israel. Now therefore advise yourself what word I shall bring again to him that sent me.
- 21:13 And David said to Gad, I am in a great strait: let me fall now into the hand of the LORD; for very great are his mercies: but let me not fall into the hand of man.
- 21:14 So the LORD sent pestilence on Israel: and there fell of Israel seventy thousand men.
- 21:15 And God sent an angel to Jerusalem to destroy it: and as he was destroying, the LORD beheld, and he repented him of the evil, and said to the angel that destroyed, It is enough, stay now your hand. And the angel of the LORD stood by the threshing floor of Ornan the Jebusite.
- 21:16 And David lifted up his eyes, and saw the angel of the LORD stand between the earth and the heaven, having a drawn sword in his hand stretched out over Jerusalem. Then David and the elders of Israel, who were clothed in sackcloth, fell on their faces.
- 21:17 And David said to God, Is it not I that commanded the people to be numbered? even I it is that have sinned and done evil indeed; but as for these sheep, what have they done? let your hand, I pray you, O LORD my God, be on me, and on my father’s house; but not on your people, that they should be plagued.
- 21:18 Then the angel of the LORD commanded Gad to say to David, that David should go up, and set up an altar to the LORD in the threshing floor of Ornan the Jebusite.
- 21:19 And David went up at the saying of Gad, which he spoke in the name of the LORD.
- 21:20 And Ornan turned back, and saw the angel; and his four sons with him hid themselves. Now Ornan was threshing wheat.
- 21:21 And as David came to Ornan, Ornan looked and saw David, and went out of the threshing floor, and bowed himself to David with his face to the ground.
- 21:22 Then David said to Ornan, Grant me the place of this threshing floor, that I may build an altar therein to the LORD: you shall grant it me for the full price: that the plague may be stayed from the people.
- 21:23 And Ornan said to David, Take it to you, and let my lord the king do that which is good in his eyes: see, I give you the oxen also for burnt offerings, and the threshing instruments for wood, and the wheat for the meat offering; I give it all.
- 21:24 And king David said to Ornan, No; but I will truly buy it for the full price: for I will not take that which is your for the LORD, nor offer burnt offerings without cost.
- 21:25 So David gave to Ornan for the place six hundred shekels of gold by weight.
- 21:26 And David built there an altar to the LORD, and offered burnt offerings and peace offerings, and called on the LORD; and he answered him from heaven by fire on the altar of burnt offering.
- 21:27 And the LORD commanded the angel; and he put up his sword again into the sheath thereof.
- 21:28 At that time when David saw that the LORD had answered him in the threshing floor of Ornan the Jebusite, then he sacrificed there.
- 21:29 For the tabernacle of the LORD, which Moses made in the wilderness, and the altar of the burnt offering, were at that season in the high place at Gibeon.
- 21:30 But David could not go before it to inquire of God: for he was afraid because of the sword of the angel of the LORD.

- 20:1 And it came to pass, that after the year was expired, at the time that kings go out to battle, Joab led forth the power of the army, and wasted the country of the children of Ammon, and came and besieged Rabbah. But David tarried at Jerusalem. And Joab smote Rabbah, and destroyed it.

- 20:6 And yet again there was war at Gath, where was a man of great stature, whose fingers and toes were four and twenty, six on each hand, and six on each foot and he also was the son of the giant.
- 20:7 But when he defied Israel, Jonathan the son of Shimea David’s brother slew him.
- 20:8 These were born to the giant in Gath; and they fell by the hand of David, and by the hand of his servants.

- 19:1 Now it came to pass after this, that Nahash the king of the children of Ammon died, and his son reigned in his stead.
- 19:2 And David said, I will show kindness to Hanun the son of Nahash, because his father showed kindness to me. And David sent messengers to comfort him concerning his father. So the servants of David came into the land of the children of Ammon to Hanun, to comfort him.
- 19:3 But the princes of the children of Ammon said to Hanun, Think you that David does honor your father, that he has sent comforters to you? are not his servants come to you for to search, and to overthrow, and to spy out the land?
- 19:4 Why Hanun took David’s servants, and shaved them, and cut off their garments in the middle hard by their buttocks, and sent them away.
- 19:5 Then there went certain, and told David how the men were served. And he sent to meet them: for the men were greatly ashamed. And the king said, Tarry at Jericho until your beards be grown, and then return.
- 19:6 And when the children of Ammon saw that they had made themselves odious to David, Hanun and the children of Ammon sent a thousand talents of silver to hire them chariots and horsemen out of Mesopotamia, and out of Syriamaachah, and out of Zobah.
- 19:7 So they hired thirty and two thousand chariots, and the king of Maachah and his people; who came and pitched before Medeba. And the children of Ammon gathered themselves together from their cities, and came to battle.
- 19:8 And when David heard of it, he sent Joab, and all the host of the mighty men.
- 19:9 And the children of Ammon came out, and put the battle in array before the gate of the city: and the kings that were come were by themselves in the field.
- 19:10 Now when Joab saw that the battle was set against him before and behind, he chose out of all the choice of Israel, and put them in array against the Syrians.
- 19:11 And the rest of the people he delivered to the hand of Abishai his brother, and they set themselves in array against the children of Ammon.
- 19:12 And he said, If the Syrians be too strong for me, then you shall help me: but if the children of Ammon be too strong for you, then I will help you.
- 19:13 Be of good courage, and let us behave ourselves valiantly for our people, and for the cities of our God: and let the LORD do that which is good in his sight.
- 19:14 So Joab and the people that were with him drew near before the Syrians to the battle; and they fled before him.
- 19:15 And when the children of Ammon saw that the Syrians were fled, they likewise fled before Abishai his brother, and entered into the city. Then Joab came to Jerusalem.
- 19:16 And when the Syrians saw that they were put to the worse before Israel, they sent messengers, and drew forth the Syrians that were beyond the river: and Shophach the captain of the host of Hadarezer went before them.
- 19:17 And it was told David; and he gathered all Israel, and passed over Jordan, and came on them, and set the battle in array against them. So when David had put the battle in array against the Syrians, they fought with him.
- 19:18 But the Syrians fled before Israel; and David slew of the Syrians seven thousand men which fought in chariots, and forty thousand footmen, and killed Shophach the captain of the host.
- 19:19 And when the servants of Hadarezer saw that they were put to the worse before Israel, they made peace with David, and became his servants: neither would the Syrians help the children of Ammon any more.

- 17:9 Also I will ordain a place for my people Israel, and will plant them, and they shall dwell in their place, and shall be moved no more; neither shall the children of wickedness waste them any more, as at the beginning,
- 17:10 And since the time that I commanded judges to be over my people Israel. Moreover I will subdue all your enemies. Furthermore I tell you that the LORD will build you an house.
- 17:11 And it shall come to pass, when your days be expired that you must go to be with your fathers, that I will raise up your seed after you, which shall be of your sons; and I will establish his kingdom.
- 17:12 He shall build me an house, and I will establish his throne for ever.
- 17:13 I will be his father, and he shall be my son: and I will not take my mercy away from him, as I took it from him that was before you:
- 17:14 But I will settle him in my house and in my kingdom for ever: and his throne shall be established for ever more.
- 17:15 According to all these words, and according to all this vision, so did Nathan speak to David.
- 17:16 And David the king came and sat before the LORD, and said, Who am I, O LORD God, and what is my house, that you have brought me till now?
- 17:17 And yet this was a small thing in your eyes, O God; for you have also spoken of your servant’s house for a great while to come, and have regarded me according to the estate of a man of high degree, O LORD God.
- 17:18 What can David speak more to you for the honor of your servant? for you know your servant.
- 17:19 O LORD, for your servant’s sake, and according to your own heart, have you done all this greatness, in making known all these great things.
- 17:20 O LORD, there is none like you, neither is there any God beside you, according to all that we have heard with our ears.
- 17:21 And what one nation in the earth is like your people Israel, whom God went to redeem to be his own people, to make you a name of greatness and terribleness, by driving out nations from before your people whom you have redeemed out of Egypt?
- 17:22 For your people Israel did you make your own people for ever; and you, LORD, became their God.
- 17:23 Therefore now, LORD, let the thing that you have spoken concerning your servant and concerning his house be established for ever, and do as you have said.
- 17:24 Let it even be established, that your name may be magnified for ever, saying, The LORD of hosts is the God of Israel, even a God to Israel: and let the house of David your servant be established before you.
- 17:25 For you, O my God, have told your servant that you will build him an house: therefore your servant has found in his heart to pray before you.
- 17:26 And now, LORD, you are God, and have promised this goodness to your servant:
- 17:27 Now therefore let it please you to bless the house of your servant, that it may be before you for ever: for you bless, O LORD, and it shall be blessed for ever.

- 16:1 So they brought the ark of God, and set it in the middle of the tent that David had pitched for it: and they offered burnt sacrifices and peace offerings before God.
- 16:2 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.
- 16:3 And he dealt to every one of Israel, both man and woman, to every one a loaf of bread, and a good piece of flesh, and a flagon of wine.
- 16:4 And he appointed certain of the Levites to minister before the ark of the LORD, and to record, and to thank and praise the LORD God of Israel:
- 16:5 Asaph the chief, and next to him Zechariah, Jeiel, and Shemiramoth, and Jehiel, and Mattithiah, and Eliab, and Benaiah, and Obededom: and Jeiel with psalteries and with harps; but Asaph made a sound with cymbals;
- 16:6 Benaiah also and Jahaziel the priests with trumpets continually before the ark of the covenant of God.
- 16:7 Then on that day David delivered first this psalm to thank the LORD into the hand of Asaph and his brothers.
- 16:8 Give thanks to the LORD, call on his name, make known his deeds among the people.
- 16:9 Sing to him, sing psalms to him, talk you of all his wondrous works.

- 16:13 O you seed of Israel his servant, you children of Jacob, his chosen ones.
- 16:14 He is the LORD our God; his judgments are in all the earth.
- 16:15 Be you mindful always of his covenant; the word which he commanded to a thousand generations;
- 16:16 Even of the covenant which he made with Abraham, and of his oath to Isaac;
- 16:17 And has confirmed the same to Jacob for a law, and to Israel for an everlasting covenant,
- 16:18 Saying, To you will I give the land of Canaan, the lot of your inheritance;
- 16:19 When you were but few, even a few, and strangers in it.
- 16:20 And when they went from nation to nation, and from one kingdom to another people;
- 16:21 He suffered no man to do them wrong: yes, he reproved kings for their sakes,
- 16:22 Saying, Touch not my anointed, and do my prophets no harm.
- 16:23 Sing to the LORD, all the earth; show forth from day to day his salvation.
- 16:24 Declare his glory among the heathen; his marvelous works among all nations.
- 16:25 For great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised: he also is to be feared above all gods.
- 16:26 For all the gods of the people are idols: but the LORD made the heavens.
- 16:27 Glory and honor are in his presence; strength and gladness are in his place.
- 16:28 Give to the LORD, you kindreds of the people, give to the LORD glory and strength.
- 16:29 Give to the LORD the glory due to his name: bring an offering, and come before him: worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness.
- 16:30 Fear before him, all the earth: the world also shall be stable, that it be not moved.
- 16:31 Let the heavens be glad, and let the earth rejoice: and let men say among the nations, The LORD reigns.
- 16:32 Let the sea roar, and the fullness thereof: let the fields rejoice, and all that is therein.
- 16:33 Then shall the trees of the wood sing out at the presence of the LORD, because he comes to judge the earth.
- 16:34 O give thanks to the LORD; for he is good; for his mercy endures for ever.
- 16:35 And say you, Save us, O God of our salvation, and gather us together, and deliver us from the heathen, that we may give thanks to your holy name, and glory in your praise.
- 16:36 Blessed be the LORD God of Israel for ever and ever. And all the people said, Amen, and praised the LORD.
- 16:37 So he left there before the ark of the covenant of the LORD Asaph and his brothers, to minister before the ark continually, as every day’s work required:
- 16:38 And Obededom with their brothers, three score and eight; Obededom also the son of Jeduthun and Hosah to be porters:
- 16:39 And Zadok the priest, and his brothers the priests, before the tabernacle of the LORD in the high place that was at Gibeon,
- 16:40 To offer burnt offerings to the LORD on the altar of the burnt offering continually morning and evening, and to do according to all that is written in the law of the LORD, which he commanded Israel;
- 16:41 And with them Heman and Jeduthun, and the rest that were chosen, who were expressed by name, to give thanks to the LORD, because his mercy endures for ever;
- 16:42 And with them Heman and Jeduthun with trumpets and cymbals for those that should make a sound, and with musical instruments of God. And the sons of Jeduthun were porters.
- 16:43 And all the people departed every man to his house: and David returned to bless his house.
