25 He stationed the Levites in the temple of the LORD with cymbals, harps and lyres in the way prescribed by David and Gad the king’s seer and Nathan the prophet; this was commanded by the LORD through his prophets.
26 So the Levites stood ready with David’s instruments, and the priests with their trumpets.

INTRODUCTION TO 2 CHRONICLES 29
