SCRIPTURE

"Thus all Israel brought up the ark of the covenant of Jehovah with shouting, and with sound of the cornet, and with trumpets, and with cymbals, sounding aloud with psalteries and harps." — 1 Chronicles 15:28 (ASV)

Thus all Israel brought.And all Israel were bringing. Samuel has and David and all the house of Israel, and ark of the Lord.

Cornet. —Rather, trumpet.

The rest of this verse is missing in Samuel, but all the additional instruments have already been mentioned (1 Chronicles 15:16–21).

Trumpets. —Clarions, or straight trumpets.

The last clause should be rendered, and with clanging cymbals, with harps and lutes .
