These are the last words of David: The declaration of David son of Jesse, the declaration of the man raised on high, the one anointed by the God of Jacob, the favorite singer of Israel:The Spirit of the Lord spoke through me, His word was on my tongue.
Then King Hezekiah and the officials told the Levites to sing praise to the Lord in the words of David and of Asaph the seer. So they sang praises with rejoicing and bowed down and worshiped.
The leaders of the Levites— Hashabiah, Sherebiah, and Jeshua son of Kadmiel, along with their relatives opposite them— gave praise and thanks, division by division, as David the man of God had prescribed.
