1 Chronicles 15:16-22

16Then David spoke to the chiefs of the Levites 1to appoint their relatives the singers, with instruments of music, harps, lyres, loud-sounding cymbals, to raise sounds of joy.

17So 2the Levites appointed Heman the son of Joel, and from his relatives, Asaph the son of Berechiah; and from the sons of Merari their relatives, Ethan the son of Kushaiah,

18and with them their relatives of the second rank, Zechariah, 3Ben, Jaaziel, Shemiramoth, Jehiel, Unni, Eliab, Benaiah, Maaseiah, Mattithiah, Eliphelehu, Mikneiah, Obed-edom and Jeiel, the gatekeepers.

19So the singers, Heman, Asaph and Ethan were appointed to sound aloud cymbals of bronze;

20and Zechariah, Aziel, Shemiramoth, Jehiel, Unni, Eliab, Maaseiah and Benaiah, with 4harps tuned to 5alamoth;

21and Mattithiah, Eliphelehu, Mikneiah, Obed-edom, Jeiel and Azaziah, to lead with 6lyres tuned to 7the sheminith.

22Chenaniah, chief of the Levites, was in charge of the singing; he gave instruction in singing because he was skillful.
