16 And David spoke to the heads of the Levites to appoint their brothers as the singers with instruments of song, stringed instruments, and harps, and cymbals, resounding to lift up the voice with joy.

17 And the Levites appointed Heman son of Joel; and of his brothers, Asaph son of Berechiah; and of the sons of Merari their brothers, Ethan son of Kushaiah;

18 and with them their brothers of the second rank: Zechariah, and Jaaziel, and Shemiramoth, and Jehiel, and Unni, Eliab, and Benaiah, and Maaseiah, and Mattithiah, and Elipheleh, and Mikneiah, and Obed-edom and Jeiel the gatekeepers.

19 And the singers, Heman, Asaph, and Ethan, with cymbals of brass to sound;

20 and Zechariah, and Aziel, and Shemiramoth, and Jeheil, and Unni, and Eliab, and Maaseiah, and Benaiah, with strings according to Alamoth;

21 and Mattithiah, and Elipheleh, and Mikneiah, and Obed-edom, and Jeiel, and Azaziah, with lyres according to Sheminith, to oversee.

22 And Chenaniah head of the Levites was over the lifting up of song; he instructed in the lifting up, because he was skillful.

23 And Berechiah and Elkanah were gatekeepers for the ark.

24 And Shebaniah, and Joshaphat, and Nethanel, and Amasai, and Zechariah, and Benaiah, and Eliezer the priests were to blow the trumpets before the face of the ark of God. And Obed-edom and Jehiah were gatekeepers for the ark.
