1 Chronicles 16:1 In-Context

1 They brought the Chest of God and placed it right in the center of the tent that David had pitched for it; then they worshiped by presenting burnt offerings and peace offerings to God.

2 When David had completed the offerings of worship, he blessed the people in the name of God.

3 Then he passed around to every one there, men and women alike, a loaf of bread, a slice of barbecue, and a raisin cake.

4 Then David assigned some of the Levites to the Chest of God to lead worship - to intercede, give thanks, and praise the God of Israel.

5 Asaph was in charge; under him were Zechariah, Jeiel, Shemiramoth, Jehiel, Mattithiah, Eliab, Benaiah, Obed-Edom, and Jeiel, who played the musical instruments. Asaph was on percussion.
