of David's own descendants would sit on David's throne as the Messiah.

After taking counsel with the people, he stationed singers
to the Lord extolling the One majestic in holiness as they went
forth ahead of the vanguard, saying,
"Praise the Lord, for His
steadfast love is eternal." |
20 So they arose early
in the morning and went out into the wilderness of Tekoa; and as
they went out, Jehoshaphat stood and said, "Hear me, O Judah and you
inhabitants of Jerusalem:
Believe in the Lord your God and you shall be established; believe
His prophets, and you shall prosper."
21 And when he

the Lord, and who should praise the beauty of holiness, as they went
out before the army and were saying:
"Praise the Lord, For His
mercy endures forever."

1
Give ear my people, to my
teaching, turn your ear to what I say
2 I will expand a
theme, hold forth a lesson of the past,
3 things we have
heard and know that our fathers have told us.
4 We will
not withhold them from their children, telling the coming generation
the praises of the Lord and His might, and the wonders He performed. |
1
O my people, listen to my teaching. Open your ears to what I am
saying,
2
for I will speak to you in a parable. I will teach
you hidden lessons from our past-
3
stories we have heard and
know, stories our ancestors handed down to us.
4 We
will not hide these truths from our children but will tell the next
generation about the glorious deeds of the Lord. We will tell of His
power and the mighty miracles He did. |

2to proclaim the year of the LORD’s favor,
and the day of vengeance of our God; to comfort all who mourn;

was his custom, he went to the synagogue on the Sabbath day, and he
stood up to read.
17And
the scroll of the prophet Isaiah was given to him. He unrolled the
scroll and found the place where it was written,
18
"The Spirit of the Lord is upon me,
because he has anointed me
to proclaim good news to the poor.
He has sent me to proclaim liberty to the captives and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty those who are oppressed,

to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor." |
