Worship before the Ark

37 So he left Asaph and his relatives there 4before the ark of the covenant of the LORD to minister before the ark continually, 5as every day's work required;
38 and 6Obed-edom with his 68 * relatives; Obed-edom, also the son of Jeduthun, and 7Hosah as gatekeepers.
39 He left 8Zadok the priest and his relatives the priests 9before the tabernacle of the LORD in the high place which was at Gibeon,
40 to offer burnt offerings to the LORD on the altar of burnt offering continually morning and evening, 10even according to all that is written in the law of the LORD, which He commanded Israel.
41 With them were 11Heman and Jeduthun, and 12the rest who were chosen, who were designated by name, to 13give thanks to the LORD, because His lovingkindness is everlasting.
42 And with them were Heman and Jeduthun with trumpets and cymbals for those who should sound aloud, and with instruments for 14the songs of God, and the sons of Jeduthun for the gate.
43 15Then all the people departed each to his house, and David returned to bless his household.
