² After David had finished sacrificing the burnt offerings and fellowship offerings, he blessed^(A) the people in the name of the Lord.

³ The king contributed^(A) from his own possessions for the morning and evening burnt offerings and for the burnt offerings on the Sabbaths, at the New Moons and at the appointed festivals as written in the Law of the Lord.^(B)
