 [20 ](/kjv/1-chronicles/15/20) And Zechariah, and Aziel, and Shemiramoth, and Jehiel, and Unni, and Eliab, and Maaseiah, and Benaiah, with psalteries on Alamoth;
 
 [21 ](/kjv/1-chronicles/15/21) And Mattithiah, and Elipheleh, and Mikneiah, and Obed-edom, and Jeiel, and Azaziah, with harps on the Sheminith to excel.*
 
 [22 ](/kjv/1-chronicles/15/22) And Chenaniah, chief of the Levites, *was* for song: he instructed about the song, because he *was* skilful.**
 
 [23 ](/kjv/1-chronicles/15/23) And Berechiah and Elkanah *were* doorkeepers for the ark.
 
 [24 ](/kjv/1-chronicles/15/24) 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.
 
 [25 ](/kjv/1-chronicles/15/25) ¶ So David, and the elders of Israel, and the captains over thousands, went to bring up the ark of the covenant of the LORD out of the house of Obed-edom with joy.
 
 [26 ](/kjv/1-chronicles/15/26) And it came to pass, when God helped the Levites that bare the ark of the covenant of the LORD, that they offered seven bullocks and seven rams.
 
 [27 ](/kjv/1-chronicles/15/27) 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.*
