1 Chronicles 16
1. David's festival sacrifice
4. He orders a choir to sing thanksgiving
7. The psalm of thanksgiving
37. He appoints ministers, porters, priests, and musicians, to attend the ark

Psalm 111:5.) The expression is modified here, to suit different circumstances, and perhaps in view of 1Chronicles 16:12.

The word which he commanded to . . . Rather, the promise which he established for . . .
