God is known in Judah; His name is great in Israel.

The singers, the descendants of Asaph, were at their stations according to the command of David, Asaph, Heman, and Jeduthun the king’s seer. Also, the gatekeepers were at each gate. None of them left their tasks because their Levite brothers had made preparations for them.

Why have You rejected us forever, God? Why does Your anger burn against the sheep of Your pasture?

God, the nations have invaded Your inheritance, desecrated Your holy temple, and turned Jerusalem into ruins.

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.
