Asaph was the leader \{of the first group\}. Asaph’s group played the cymbals. {\cf2\super [185]} Zechariah was the \{leader of the\} second \{group\}.

David and the leaders of the army separated Asaph’s sons for special service. Asaph’s sons were Heman and Jeduthun.

The priests stood ready to do their work. The Levites also stood with the instruments of the Lord’s music. These instruments were made by King David to give thanks to the Lord. The priests and Levites were singing, Praise the Lord because his love continues forever. {\cf2\super [123]} The priests blew their trumpets as they stood across from the Levites. And all the people of Israel were standing.
