¹ Then sang Moses and the children of Israel this song unto the LORD, and spake, saying, I will sing unto the LORD, for he hath triumphed gloriously: the horse and his rider hath he thrown into the sea.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

² The LORD is my strength and song, and he is become my salvation: he is my God, and I will prepare him an habitation; my father's God, and I will exalt him.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

³ The LORD is a man of war: the LORD is his name.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁴ Pharaoh's chariots and his host hath he cast into the sea: his chosen captains also are drowned in the Red sea.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁵ The depths have covered them: they sank into the bottom as a stone.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁶ Thy right hand, O LORD, is become glorious in power: thy right hand, O LORD, hath dashed in pieces the enemy.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁷ And in the greatness of thine excellency thou hast overthrown them that rose up against thee: thou sentest forth thy wrath, which consumed them as stubble.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁸ And with the blast of thy nostrils the waters were gathered together, the floods stood upright as an heap, and the depths were congealed in the heart of the sea.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁹ The enemy said, I will pursue, I will overtake, I will divide the spoil; my lust shall be satisfied upon them; I will draw my sword, my hand shall destroy them.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁰ Thou didst blow with thy wind, the sea covered them: they sank as lead in the mighty waters.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹¹ Who is like unto thee, O LORD, among the gods? who is like thee, glorious in holiness, fearful in praises, doing wonders?

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹² Thou stretchedst out thy right hand, the earth swallowed them.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹³ Thou in thy mercy hast led forth the people which thou hast redeemed: thou hast guided them in thy strength unto thy holy habitation.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁴ The people shall hear, and be afraid: sorrow shall take hold on the inhabitants of Palestina.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁵ Then the dukes of Edom shall be amazed; the mighty men of Moab, trembling shall take hold upon them; all the inhabitants of Canaan shall melt away.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁶ Fear and dread shall fall upon them; by the greatness of thine arm they shall be as still as a stone; till thy people pass over, O LORD, till the people pass over, which thou hast purchased.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁷ Thou shalt bring them in, and plant them in the mountain of thine inheritance, in the place, O LORD, which thou hast made for thee to dwell in, in the Sanctuary, O Lord, which thy hands have established.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁸ The LORD shall reign for ever and ever.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁹ For the horse of Pharaoh went in with his chariots and with his horsemen into the sea, and the LORD brought again the waters of the sea upon them; but the children of Israel went on dry land in the midst of the sea.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁰ And Miriam the prophetess, the sister of Aaron, took a timbrel in her hand; and all the women went out after her with timbrels and with dances.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²¹ And Miriam answered them, Sing ye to the LORD, for he hath triumphed gloriously; the horse and his rider hath he thrown into the sea.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²² So Moses brought Israel from the Red sea, and they went out into the wilderness of Shur; and they went three days in the wilderness, and found no water.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²³ And when they came to Marah, they could not drink of the waters of Marah, for they were bitter: therefore the name of it was called Marah.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁴ And the people murmured against Moses, saying, What shall we drink?

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁵ And he cried unto the LORD; and the LORD shewed him a tree, which when he had cast into the waters, the waters were made sweet: there he made for them a statute and an ordinance, and there he proved them,

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁶ And said, If thou wilt diligently hearken to the voice of the LORD thy God, and wilt do that which is right in his sight, and wilt give ear to his commandments, and keep all his statutes, I will put none of these diseases upon thee, which I have brought upon the Egyptians: for I am the LORD that healeth thee.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁷ And they came to Elim, where were twelve twelve wells of water, and threescore and ten palm trees: and they encamped there by the waters.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁷ Then Israel sang this song, Spring up, O well; sing ye unto it:

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁸ The princes digged the well, the nobles of the people digged it, by the direction of the lawgiver, with their staves. And from the wilderness they went to Mattanah:

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁹ And from Mattanah to Nahaliel: and from Nahaliel to Bamoth:

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁰ And from Bamoth in the valley, that is in the country of Moab, to the top of Pisgah, which looketh toward Jeshimon.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

³⁴ And Jephthah came to Mizpeh unto his house, and, behold, his daughter came out to meet him with timbrels and with dances: and she was his only child; beside her he had neither son nor daughter.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁶ And it came to pass as they came, when David was returned from the slaughter of the Philistine, that the women came out of all cities of Israel, singing and dancing, to meet king Saul, with tabrets, with joy, and with instruments of musick.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁷ And the women answered one another as they played, and said, Saul hath slain his thousands, and David his ten thousands.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

³⁵ I am this day fourscore years old: and can I discern between good and evil? can thy servant taste what I eat or what I drink? can I hear any more the voice of singing men and singing women? wherefore then should thy servant be yet a burden unto my lord the king?

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁴⁰ And all the people came up after him, and the people piped with pipes, and rejoiced with great joy, so that the earth rent with the sound of them.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁴ And he appointed certain of the Levites to minister before the ark of the LORD, and to record, and to thank and praise the LORD God of Israel:

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁵ Asaph the chief, and next to him Zechariah, Jeiel, and Shemiramoth, and Jehiel, and Mattithiah, and Eliab, and Benaiah, and Obed-edom: and Jeiel with psalteries and with harps; but Asaph made a sound with cymbals;

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁶ Benaiah also and Jahaziel the priests with trumpets continually before the ark of the covenant of God.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁷ Then on that day David delivered first this psalm to thank the LORD into the hand of Asaph and his brethren.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁸ Give thanks unto the LORD, call upon his name, make known his deeds among the people.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁹ Sing unto him, sing psalms unto him, talk ye of all his wondrous works.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

³ Now the Levites were numbered from the age of thirty years and upward: and their number by their polls, man by man, was thirty and eight thousand.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁵ Moreover four thousand were porters; and four thousand praised the LORD with the instruments which I made, said David, to praise therewith.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁶ And David divided them into courses among the sons of Levi, namely, Gershon, Kohath, and Merari.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹ Moreover David and the captains of the host separated to the service of the sons of Asaph, and of Heman, and of Jeduthun, who should prophesy with harps, with psalteries, and with cymbals: and the number of the workmen according to their service was:

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

² Of the sons of Asaph; Zaccur, and Joseph, and Nethaniah, and Asarelah, the sons of Asaph under the hands of Asaph, which prophesied according to the order of the king.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

³ Of Jeduthun: the sons of Jeduthun; Gedaliah, and Zeri, and Jeshaiah, Hashabiah, and Mattithiah, six, under the hands of their father Jeduthun, who prophesied with a harp, to give thanks and to praise the LORD.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁴ Of Heman: the sons of Heman; Bukkiah, Mattaniah, Uzziel, Shebuel, and Jerimoth, Hananiah, Hanani, Eliathah, Giddalti, and Romamti-ezer, Joshbekashah, Mallothi, Hothir, and Mahazioth:

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁵ All these were the sons of Heman the king's seer in the words of God, to lift up the horn. And God gave to Heman fourteen fourteen sons and three daughters.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁶ All these were under the hands of their father for song in the house of the LORD, with cymbals, psalteries, and harps, for the service of the house of God, according to the king's order to Asaph, Jeduthun, and Heman.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁷ So the number of them, with their brethren that were instructed in the songs of the LORD, even all that were cunning, was two hundred fourscore and eight.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁸ And they cast lots, ward against ward, as well the small as the great, the teacher as the scholar.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁹ Now the first lot came forth for Asaph to Joseph: the second to Gedaliah, who with his brethren and sons were twelve: twelve:

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

³¹ And these are they whom David set over the service of song in the house of the LORD, after that the ark had rest.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

³² And they ministered before the dwelling place of the tabernacle of the congregation with singing, until Solomon had built the house of the LORD in Jerusalem: and then they waited on their office according to their order.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁶ And David spake to the chief of the Levites to appoint their brethren to be the singers with instruments of musick, psalteries and harps and cymbals, sounding, by lifting up the voice with joy.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

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

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁸ And with them their brethren of the second degree, Zechariah, Ben, and Jaaziel, and Shemiramoth, and Jehiel, and Unni, Eliab, and Benaiah, and Maaseiah, and Mattithiah, and Elipheleh, and Mikneiah, and Obed-edom, and Jeiel, the porters.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

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

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁰ And Zechariah, and Aziel, and Shemiramoth, and Jehiel, and Unni, and Eliab, and Maaseiah, and Benaiah, with psalteries on Alamoth;

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²¹ And Mattithiah, and Elipheleh, and Mikneiah, and Obed-edom, and Jeiel, and Azaziah, with harps on the Sheminith to excel.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²² And Chenaniah, chief of the Levites, was for song: he instructed about the song, because he was skilful.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁴ And Shebaniah, and Jehoshaphat, and Nethaneel, and Amasai, and Zechariah, and Benaiah, and Eliezer, the priests, did blow with the trumpets before the ark of God: and Obed-edom and Jehiah were doorkeepers for the ark.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁷ And David was clothed with a robe of fine linen, and all the Levites that bare the ark, and the singers, and Chenaniah the master of the song with the singers: David also had upon him an ephod of linen.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁸ Thus all Israel brought up the ark of the covenant of the LORD with shouting, and with sound of the cornet, and with trumpets, and with cymbals, making a noise with psalteries and harps.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁰ Glory ye in his holy name: let the heart of them rejoice that seek the LORD.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹¹ Seek the LORD and his strength, seek his face continually.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹² Remember his marvellous works that he hath done, his wonders, and the judgments of his mouth;

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹³ O ye seed of Israel his servant, ye children of Jacob, his chosen ones.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁴ He is the LORD our God; his judgments are in all the earth.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁵ Be ye mindful always of his covenant; the word which he commanded to a thousand generations;

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁶ Even of the covenant which he made with Abraham, and of his oath unto Isaac;

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁷ And hath confirmed the same to Jacob for a law, and to Israel for an everlasting covenant,

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁸ Saying, Unto thee will I give the land of Canaan, the lot of your inheritance;

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁹ When ye were but few, few, even a few, and strangers in it.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁰ And when they went from nation to nation, and from one kingdom to another people;

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²¹ He suffered no man to do them wrong: yea, he reproved kings for their sakes,

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²² Saying, Touch not mine anointed, and do my prophets no harm.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²³ Sing unto the LORD, all the earth; shew forth from day to day his salvation.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁴ Declare his glory among the heathen; his marvellous works among all nations.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁵ For great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised: he also is to be feared above all gods.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁶ For all the gods of the people are idols: but the LORD made the heavens.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁷ Glory and honour are in his presence; strength and gladness are in his place.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁸ Give unto the LORD, ye kindreds of the people, give unto the LORD glory and strength.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁹ Give unto the LORD the glory due unto his name: bring an offering, and come before him: worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

³⁰ Fear before him, all the earth: the world also shall be stable, that it be not moved.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

³¹ Let the heavens be glad, and let the earth rejoice: and let men say among the nations, The LORD reigneth.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

³² Let the sea roar, and the fulness thereof: let the fields rejoice, and all that is therein.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

³³ Then shall the trees of the wood sing out at the presence of the LORD, because he cometh to judge the earth.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

³⁴ O give thanks unto the LORD; for he is good; for his mercy endureth for ever.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

³⁵ And say ye, Save us, O God of our salvation, and gather us together, and deliver us from the heathen, that we may give thanks to thy holy name, and glory in thy praise.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

³⁶ Blessed be the LORD God of Israel for ever and ever. And all the people said, Amen, and praised the LORD.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

³⁷ So he left there before the ark of the covenant of the LORD Asaph and his brethren, to minister before the ark continually, as every day's work required:

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

³⁸ And Obed-edom with their brethren, threescore and eight; Obed-edom also the son of Jeduthun and Hosah to be porters:

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

³⁹ And Zadok the priest, and his brethren the priests, before the tabernacle of the LORD in the high place that was at Gibeon,

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁴⁰ To offer burnt offerings unto the LORD upon the altar of the burnt offering continually morning and evening, and to do according to all that is written in the law of the LORD, which he commanded Israel;

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁴¹ And with them Heman and Jeduthun, and the rest that were chosen, who were expressed by name, to give thanks to the LORD, because his mercy endureth for ever;

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁴² And with them Heman and Jeduthun with trumpets and cymbals for those that should make a sound, and with musical instruments of God. And the sons of Jeduthun were porters.
