Believe in the Lord your God, and you will be established;^(A) believe in his prophets, and you will succeed.” ²¹ Then he consulted with the people and appointed some to sing for the Lord and some to praise the splendor of his holiness.^(B) When they went out in front of the armed forces, they kept singing:^[a]
