Psalms 81:2
Lift up a song, strike the tambourine, play the sweet-sounding harp and lyre.
BSB
ASV
Raise a song, and bring hither the timbrel, The pleasant harp with the psaltery.
KJV
Take a psalm, and bring hither the timbrel, the pleasant harp with the psaltery.
Take a psalm. Select a sacred song, and then raise it with your hearty voices. And bring hither the timbrel. Beat on your tambourines, ye damsels, let the sound be loud and inspiriting. "Sound the trumpets, beat the drums." God is not to be served with misery but with mirthful music, sound ye then the loud timbrel, as of old ye smote it by "Egypt's dark sea." The pleasant harp with the psaltery. The timbrel for sound, must be joined by the harp for sweetness, and this by other stringed instruments for variety.

Where several different paths arrive at the same place, that place is listed first: the text keeps returning to it. Every stop shows its own words, and every stop is a page.

I have hidden Your word in my heart that I might not sin against You.

If you remain in Me and My words remain in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you.
Consequently, faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of Christ.
Your words were found, and I ate them. Your words became my joy and my heart’s delight. For I bear Your name, O LORD God of Hosts.

Rare words are the text's own signal of a deliberate thread: the fewer the occurrences, the more the places it appears belong together.
