Unchecked Copy Box2Ch 5:13 - The trumpeters and musicians joined in unison to give praise and thanks to the LORD. Accompanied by trumpets, cymbals and other instruments, the singers raised their voices in praise to the LORD and sang: “He is good; his love endures forever.” Then the temple of the LORD was filled with the cloud,
Unchecked Copy Box2Ch 5:14 - and the priests could not perform their service because of the cloud, for the glory of the LORD filled the temple of God.
