“And when the builders laid the foundation of the temple of the Lord, they set the priests in their apparel with trumpets, and the Levites the sons of Asaph with cymbals, to praise the Lord, after the ordinance of David king of Israel.

“And they sang together by course in praising and giving thanks unto to the Lord; because He is good, for His mercy endureth for ever towards Israel.”

Ezra 3:10-11
