Benaiah also and Jahaziel the priests with trumpets continually before the ark of the covenant of God.
The verse describes the arrangement made when the ark was brought into its place. Priests were set to serve continually before the ark with trumpets and other instruments. At the same time appointed singers gave thanks to God before the ark.
That worship made the sanctuary service more meaningful to Israel. By it David established song as a regular part of worship. That included songs for the people to sing on their journeys to the national altar at the annual feasts. The songs strengthened devotion to Jehovah and helped free the nation from idolatry.
