And
he
maketh
for himself houses
in the city of David, and prepareth
a place for the ark of God ,
and stretcheth
out
for
it
a tent.
David
constructed
buildings
for himself in the City of David, and he
prepared
a place for the ark of God and pitched
a tent for
it
.
Then said
David, `None
`are'
to
carry the ark of God, except
the Levites,
for
on
them hath
Jehovah
fixed
to carry the ark of God,
and to serve
Him --
unto
the
age
. '
Then David said
, “No
one
but
the
Levites
may
carry the ark of God, because
the LORD
has
chosen
them to carry the ark of the
LORD
and to minister
before
Him forever
. ”
And David assembleth
all Israel unto
Jerusalem ,
to bring up the ark of Jehovah
unto
its
place that
he had prepared for it.
And David assembled
all Israel in
Jerusalem to bring up the ark of the
LORD
to
the
place he had prepared for it.
And
David
gathereth
the sons
of Aaron ,
and the Levites .
Then
he
gathered
together
the descendants
of Aaron and the Levites :
Of
sons
of
Kohath:
Uriel the chief ,
and his brethren,
a
hundred
and
twenty.
From
the
Kohathites,
Uriel the chief and 120
of
his relatives;
Of
sons
of
Merari:
Asaiah the chief ,
and his brethren,
two
hundred
and
twenty.
from
the
Merarites,
Asaiah the chief and 220
of
his relatives;
Of
sons

.
and

.
And
David calleth
to
Zadok and to
Abiathar the
priests,
and to
the Levites ,
to
Uriel, Asaiah, and
Joel, Shemaiah, and
Eliel, and Amminadab ,
David summoned
the
priests
Zadok and Abiathar and the Levites Uriel, Asaiah, Joel, Shemaiah, Eliel, and Amminadab .
and saith
to them, `Ye
`
are '
heads
of
the fathers
of the Levites;
sanctify
yourselves,
ye
and your brethren,
and
ye
have
brought
up
the ark of Jehovah
, God of Israel, unto
`
the place '
I have prepared for it ;
And he
said
to them, “You
are the heads
of the Levitical
families.
You
and your relatives
must
consecrate
yourselves
so
that
you
may
bring
the ark of the
LORD
, the
God of Israel, to
the place I have prepared for it .
because
at
the
first
`
it was '
not ye,
Jehovah
our God made
a
breach
upon
us ,
because
we sought
Him
not according
to
the ordinance
. '
It was because
you
Levites
were
not with
us
the
first
time
that
the
LORD
our God burst
forth
in
anger
against
us .
For
we did
not consult
Him
about
the proper
order
. ”
And
the priests and the
Levites sanctify
themselves ,
to bring up the ark of Jehovah
, God of Israel ;
So
the priests and Levites consecrated
themselves to bring up the ark of the
LORD
, the
God of Israel .
and sons
of
the Levites bear
the ark of God, as Moses commanded ,
according
to
the word of Jehovah,
on
their
shoulder,
with
staves,
above
them
.
And the Levites carried
the ark of God on
their
shoulders
with
the
poles
, as Moses had
commanded in
accordance
with
the word of the
LORD
.
And
David saith
to
the heads
of the Levites to appoint their brethren
the
singers ,
with instruments
of
song,
psalteries
, and
harps, and cymbals ,
sounding,
to
lift
up
with
the
voice
for
joy
.
David also
told
the leaders
of the Levites to appoint their relatives
as
singers to
lift
up
their
voices
with joy
, accompanied
by
musical
instruments—
harps, lyres,
and cymbals.
And
the Levites appoint
Heman son of Joel ,
and
of
his brethren
, Asaph son of Berechiah ,
and
of
the
sons
of
Merari
their brethren
, Ethan son of Kushaiah;
So
the Levites appointed
Heman son of Joel ;
from
his brothers
, Asaph son of Berechiah ;
from
their brothers
the
Merarites
, Ethan son of Kushaiah;
and with them their brethren,

and
Jaaziel, and
Shemiramoth, and
Jehiel, and
Unni, Eliab, and
Benaiah, and
Maaseiah, and
Mattithiah, and

, and

and Obed-Edom and Jeiel the

and with them their brothers

Zechariah, Jaaziel, Shemiramoth, Jehiel, Unni, Eliab, Benaiah, Maaseiah, Mattithiah, Eliphelehu
, Mikneiah ,
and the

The musicians

, and

Eliab, and
Maaseiah, and Benaiah ,
with
psalteries
besides
virgins,
Zechariah, Aziel, Shemiramoth, Jehiel
, Unni, Eliab, Maaseiah, and Benaiah were
to
play
the
harps
according
to

and Mattithiah, and
Elipheleh
, and
Mikneiah, and
Obed-Edom, and
Jeiel, and Azaziah ,
with
harps,
on
the octave,
to oversee
.
And Mattithiah, Eliphelehu
, Mikneiah, Obed-edom, Jeiel, and Azaziah were
to
lead
the music
with
lyres
according
to Sheminith
.
And
Chenaniah ,
head
of
the Levites,
`is'
over
the burden;
he
instructeth
about
the burden,
for
he `is'
intelligent
.
Chenaniah the head
Levite
was
the director
of
the music
because
he was
highly
skilled
.
And
Berechiah and Elkanah `are'
gatekeepers
for
the ark.
Berechiah and Elkanah were
to
be
guardians
of
the ark.
And
Shebaniah, and
Joshaphat, and
Nethaneel
, and
Amasai, and
Zechariah, and
Benaiah, and Eliezer the priests ,
are
blowing
with
trumpets before the ark of God ;
and
Obed-Edom and Jehiah `are'
gatekeepers
for
the ark.
Shebaniah, Joshaphat, Nethanel
, Amasai, Zechariah, Benaiah, and Eliezer —
the priests —were
to
blow
the
trumpets before the ark of God .
Obed-edom and Jehiah were
also
to
be
guardians
of
the ark.
And
it
is
David, and
the elders of Israel, and the heads
of the
thousands ,
who
are
going
to bring up
the ark of the covenant of Jehovah
from the house of Obed-Edom with
joy;
So
David, the elders of Israel, and the commanders
of thousands went
with
rejoicing
to bring the ark of the covenant of the
LORD
from the house of Obed-edom .
and it
cometh
to
pass,
in
God's
helping
the Levites bearing
the ark of the covenant of Jehovah
, that
they sacrifice
seven bullocks
and seven rams.
And because
God
helped
the Levites who
were
carrying
the ark of the covenant of the
LORD
, they sacrificed
seven bulls
and seven rams.
And
David is
wrapped
in an
upper
robe of fine linen, and
all the Levites who are
bearing
the ark, and
the singers ,
and Chenaniah head
of
the burden
of the singers ;
and
on
David `is'
an
Ephod
of
linen.
Now
David was
dressed
in a
robe of fine linen, as
were
all the Levites who were
carrying
the ark, as
well
as
the singers and Chenaniah ,
the director
of music
for
the singers .
David also
wore
a
linen ephod
.
And
all Israel are
bringing
up the ark of the covenant of Jehovah
with shouting, and
with the sound
of a
cornet,
and with
trumpets, and with cymbals ,
sounding
with
psalteries
and harps ,
So
all Israel brought
up the ark of the covenant of the
LORD
with shouting, with the sounding
of rams’
horns
and trumpets, and with cymbals and the
music
of
harps and
lyres.
and
it
cometh
to
pass,
the ark of the covenant of Jehovah
is
entering in
unto
the city of David, and
Michal
daughter of
Saul
is
looking
through
the
window ,
and seeth
king David dancing and playing
, and despiseth
him in her heart.
As
the ark of the covenant of the
LORD
was
entering the City of David, Saul’s
daughter Michal
looked
down
from
a
window and saw
King David dancing and celebrating
, and she
despised
him in her heart.
