Psalms 149:3

A church father on this verse
“Let them praise his name in the choir. Wherever there is a choir, there diverse voices are gathered together into one song. For just as diverse strings produce the one sound of a song, so also diverse voices — that is, when they have been gathered together at once — make the choir of the Lord. Let them praise his name…”
Jerome, 5th c. — Homily 59, on Psalm 149
