Then Moses and the Israelites sang this song to the LORD. They said:

I will sing to the LORD,

for he is highly exalted;

he has thrown the horse

and its rider into the sea.

“Therefore write down this song for yourselves and teach it to the Israelites; have them sing it,[fn] so that this song may be a witness for me against the Israelites.

“And when many troubles and afflictions come to them, this song will testify against them, because[fn] their descendants will not have forgotten it. For I know what they are prone to do,[fn] even before I bring them into the land I swore to give them.”

Then Moses recited aloud every single word of this song to the entire assembly of Israel:

Moses came with Joshua[fn] son of Nun and recited all the words of this song in the presence of the people.

“Awake! Awake, Deborah!

Awake! Awake, sing a song!

Arise, Barak,

and take your prisoners,

son of Abinoam! ”

David and the whole house of Israel were dancing before the LORD with all kinds of fir wood instruments,[fn] lyres, harps, tambourines, sistrums,[fn] and cymbals.

David spoke the words of this song to the LORD on the day the LORD rescued him from the grasp of all his enemies and from the grasp of Saul.

Solomon spoke 3,000 proverbs, and his songs numbered 1,005.

For you, Lord GOD, have set them apart as your inheritance

from all peoples of the earth,

as you spoke through your servant Moses

when you brought our ancestors out of Egypt.

Then David told the leaders of the Levites to appoint their relatives as singers and to have them raise their voices with joy accompanied by musical instruments ​— ​harps, lyres, and cymbals.

Chenaniah, the leader of the Levites in music, was to direct the music because he was skillful.

Now David was dressed in a robe of fine linen, as were all the Levites who were carrying the ark, as well as the singers and Chenaniah, the music leader of the singers. David also wore a linen ephod.

Heman and Jeduthun had with them trumpets and cymbals to play and musical instruments of God. Jeduthun’s sons were at the city gate.

The trumpeters and singers joined together to praise and thank the LORD with one voice. They raised their voices, accompanied by trumpets, cymbals, and musical instruments, in praise to the LORD:

For he is good;

his faithful love endures forever.

The temple, the LORD’s temple, was filled with a cloud.

The priests and the Levites were standing at their stations. The Levites had the musical instruments of the LORD, which King David had made to give thanks to the LORD ​— ​“for his faithful love endures forever” ​— ​when he offered praise with them. Across from the Levites, the priests were blowing trumpets, and all the people were standing.

Then Jehoiada put the oversight of the LORD’s temple into the hands of the Levitical priests, whom David had appointed over the LORD’s temple, to offer burnt offerings to the LORD as it is written in the law of Moses, with rejoicing and song ordained by[fn] David.

The men were doing the work with integrity. Their overseers were Jahath and Obadiah, Levites from the Merarites, and Zechariah and Meshullam from the Kohathites as supervisors. The Levites were all skilled with musical instruments.

But many of the older priests, Levites, and family heads, who had seen the first temple, wept loudly when they saw the foundation of this temple, but many others shouted joyfully.

At the dedication of the wall of Jerusalem, they sent for the Levites wherever they lived and brought them to Jerusalem to celebrate the joyous dedication with thanksgiving and singing accompanied by cymbals, harps, and lyres.

as well as his relatives ​— ​Shemaiah, Azarel, Milalai, Gilalai, Maai, Nethanel, Judah, and Hanani, with the musical instruments of David, the man of God. Ezra the scribe went in front of them.

Answer me when I call,

God, who vindicates me.[fn]

You freed me from affliction;

by the work of their hands.Higgaion. Selah

I love you, LORD, my strength.

I will exalt you, LORD,

because you have lifted me up

and have not allowed my enemies

to triumph over me.

I said, “I will guard my ways

so that I may not sin with my tongue;

I will guard my mouth with a muzzle

as long as the wicked are in my presence.”

The LORD will send his faithful love by day;

his song will be with me in the night —

a prayer to the God of my life.

My heart is moved by a noble theme

as I recite my verses to the king;

my tongue is the pen of a skillful writer.

The LORD is great and highly praised

in the city of our God.

His holy mountain,

Praise is rightfully yours,[fn]

God, in Zion;

vows to you will be fulfilled.

Let the whole earth shout joyfully to God!

May God be gracious to us and bless us;

may he make his face shine upon usSelah

God arises. His enemies scatter,

and those who hate him flee from his presence.

I will praise God’s name with song

and exalt him with thanksgiving.

We give thanks to you, God;

we give thanks to you, for your name is near.

People tell about your wondrous works.

God is known in Judah;

his name is great in Israel.

God, do not keep silent.

Do not be deaf, God; do not be quiet.

The city he founded[fn] is on the holy mountains.

LORD, God of my salvation,

I cry out before you day and night.

The one who lives under the protection of the Most High

dwells in the shadow of the Almighty.

It is good to give thanks to the LORD,

to sing praise to your name, Most High,

with a ten-stringed harp[fn]

and the music of a lyre.

The LORD reigns! He is robed in majesty;

the LORD is robed, enveloped in strength.

The world is firmly established;

it cannot be shaken.

Come, let’s shout joyfully to the LORD,

shout triumphantly to the rock of our salvation!

Sing a new song to the LORD;

let the whole earth sing to the LORD.

My heart is confident, God;

I will sing; I will sing praises

with the whole of my being.[fn]

In my distress I called to the LORD,

and he answered me.

I lift my eyes toward the mountains.

Where will my help come from?

I rejoiced with those who said to me,

“Let’s go to the house of the LORD.”
