Asaph, Jeduthun, and Heman were under the order of the king.The number of them along with their brothers, who were trained in singing to the Lord, all who were skillful, was 288.And they cast lots for their duties, small and great, teacher and pupil alike.The first lot fell for Asaph to Joseph; the second to Gedaliah, to him and his brothers and his sons, twelve;the third to Zaccur, his sons and his brothers, twelve;the fourth to Izri, his sons and his brothers, twelve;the fifth to Nethaniah, his sons and his brothers, twelve;the sixth to Bukkiah, his sons and his brothers, twelve;the seventh to Jesharelah, his sons and his brothers, twelve;the eighth to Jeshaiah, his sons and his brothers, twelve;the ninth to Mattaniah, his sons and his brothers, twelve;the tenth to Shimei, his sons and his brothers, twelve;the eleventh to Azarel, his sons and his brothers, twelve;the twelfth to Hashabiah, his sons and his brothers, twelve;to the thirteenth, Shubael, his sons and his brothers, twelve;to the fourteenth, Mattithiah, his sons and his brothers, twelve;to the fifteenth, to Jeremoth, his sons and his brothers, twelve;to the sixteenth, to Hananiah, his sons and his brothers, twelve;to the seventeenth, to Joshbekashah, his sons and his brothers, twelve;to the eighteenth, to Hanani, his sons and his brothers, twelve;to the nineteenth, to Mallothi, his sons and his brothers, twelve;to the twentieth, to Eliathah, his sons and his brothers, twelve;to the twenty-first, to Hothir, his sons and his brothers, twelve;to the twenty-second, to Giddalti, his sons and his brothers, twelve;to the twenty-third, to Mahazioth, his sons and his brothers, twelve;to the twenty-fourth, to Romamti-ezer, his sons and his brothers, twelve.

And I heard a voice from heaven like the roar of many waters and like the sound of loud thunder. The voice I heard was like the sound of harpists playing on their harps,and they were singing a new song before the throne and before the four living creatures and before the elders. No one could learn that song except the 144,000 who had been redeemed from the earth.

4,000 gatekeepers, and 4,000 shall offer praises to the Lord with the instruments that I have made for praise.”

Praise him with trumpet sound; praise him with lute and harp!Praise him with tambourine and dance; praise him with strings and pipe!Praise him with sounding cymbals; praise him with loud clashing cymbals!

It is good to give thanks to the Lord, to sing praises to your name, O Most High;to declare your steadfast love in the morning, and your faithfulness by night,to the music of the lute and the harp, to the melody of the lyre.
