1 Chronicles 16:30-40

30 Tremble before him, everyone on earth. The earth is set, and it cannot be moved.

31 Let the skies rejoice and the earth be glad. Let people everywhere say, "The Lord is king!"

32 Let the sea and everything in it shout; let the fields and everything in them rejoice.

33 Then the trees of the forest will sing for joy before the Lord. They will sing because he is coming to judge the world.

34 Thank the Lord because he is good. His love continues forever.

35 Say to him, "Save us, God our Savior, and bring us back and save us from other nations. Then we will thank you and will gladly praise you."

36 Praise the Lord, the God of Israel. He always was and always will be. All the people said "Amen" and praised the Lord.

37 Then David left Asaph and the other Levites there in front of the Ark of the Agreement with the Lord. They were to serve there every day.

38 David also left Obed-Edom and sixty-eight other Levites to serve with them. Hosah and Obed-Edom son of Jeduthun were guards.

39 David left Zadok the priest and the other priests who served with him in front of the Tent of the Lord at the place of worship in Gibeon.

40 Every morning and evening they offered burnt offerings on the altar of burnt offerings, following the rules written in the Teachings of the Lord, which he had given Israel.
