NETBible

while David and all Israel¹ were energetically celebrating before the Lord, singing² and playing various stringed instruments,³ tambourines, rattles,⁴ and cymbals.

NET Notes

¹tn Heb “all the house of Israel.”

²tc Heb “were celebrating before the Lord with all woods of fir” (cf. KJV, ASV, NASB). If the text is retained, the last expression must be elliptical, referring to musical instruments made from fir wood. But it is preferable to emend the text in light of 1 Chr 13:8, which reads “were celebrating before the Lord with all strength and with songs.”

³tn Heb “with zithers [?] and with harps.”

⁴tn That is, “sistrums” (so NAB, NIV); ASV, NASB, NRSV, CEV, NLT “castanets.”
