19And the LevitesH3881, of the childrenH1121 of the KohathitesH6956, and of the childrenH1121 of the KorhitesH7145, stood upH6965 to praiseH1984 YhwhH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478 with a loudH1419 voiceH6963 on highH4605.

20And they rose earlyH7925 in the morningH1242, and went forthH3318 into the wildernessH4057 of TekoaH8620: and as they went forthH3318, JehoshaphatH3092 stoodH5975 and saidH559, HearH8085 me, O JudahH3063, and ye inhabitantsH3427 of JerusalemH3389; BelieveH539 in YhwhH3068 your GodH430, so shall ye be establishedH539; believeH539 his prophetsH5030, so shall ye prosperH6743. 21And when he had consultedH3289 with the peopleH5971, he appointedH5975 singersH7891 unto YhwhH3068, and that should praiseH1984 the beautyH1927 of holinessH6944, as they went outH3318 beforeH6440 the armyH2502, and to sayH559, PraiseH3034 YhwhH3068; for his mercyH2617 endureth for everH5769.1
