The verse in its languages

Vulgate (Clementine): Dixitque David principibus Levitarum, ut constituerent de fratribus suis cantores in organis musicorum, nablis videlicet, et lyris, et cymbalis, ut resonaret in excelsis sonitus lætitiæ.
Septuagint (Swete): καὶ εἶπεν Δαυεὶδ τοῖς ἄρχουσιν τῶν Λευειτῶν Στήσατε τοὺς ἀδελφοὺς αὐτῶν τοὺς ψαλτῳδοὺς ἐν ὀργάνοις, νάβλαις, κινύραις καὶ κυμβάλοις, τοῦ φωνῆσαι εἰς ὕψος ἐν φωνῇ εὐφροσύνης.
