all

And he
and all his
troops
set
out
for
Baale of Judah to bring up from there
the ark of God, which
is called by the Name —
the
name
of the LORD of Hosts ,
who
is
enthroned
between the cherubim that
are
on
it
.
And David
arose,
and went
with
all the
people
that
were
with
him
from
Baale of Judah ,
to bring up from thence
the ark of God, whose
name
is called by the name of the LORD of hosts that
dwelleth
between the cherubim.
They set the ark of God on
a new cart and brought it from
the house of Abinadab ,
which
was on
the
hill.
Uzzah and Ahio, the sons of Abinadab, were
guiding
the new cart ,
And
they set the ark of God upon
a new cart ,
and brought it out
of
the house of Abinadab that
was in
Gibeah:
and
Uzzah and Ahio, the sons of Abinadab, drave
the new cart .
bringing
with
it the ark of God .
And Ahio was
walking
in
front
of
the ark.
And
they
brought
it out
of
the house
of
Abinadab
which
was
at
Gibeah,
accompanying
the
ark of God :
and Ahio went
before
the ark.
David and all the house of Israel were
celebrating
before the LORD with
all kinds
of wood
instruments, harps, stringed
instruments
, tambourines
, sistrums
, and cymbals.
And
David and all the house of Israel played
before the LORD on
all manner
of instruments made
of
fir
wood
, even
on
harps, and
on
psalteries
, and
on
timbrels
, and
on
cornets
, and on
cymbals.
When they came to the
threshing
floor
of
Nacon
, Uzzah reached
out
and
took
hold
of
the ark of God, because
the oxen had
stumbled
.
And
when they came to Nachon's
threshingfloor
, Uzzah put
forth
his
hand
to
the ark of God, and
took
hold
of
it;
for
the oxen shook
it
.
And the anger of the LORD burned
against Uzzah ,
and God struck
him down
on
the
spot
for his irreverence,
and he died there
beside
the ark of God.
And the anger of the LORD was
kindled
against Uzzah ;
and God smote
him there
for his error;
and there
he died by
the ark of God.
Then
David became
angry
because the LORD had burst
forth
against
Uzzah ;
so
he named
that
place
Perez-uzzah,
as
it
is
called to this day.
And
David was
displeased,
because the LORD had made
a
breach
upon
Uzzah :
and
he called the
name
of
the
place
Perezuzzah
to this day.
That
day
David feared
the LORD and asked
, “
How can
the ark of the LORD ever
come to me? ”
And
David was
afraid
of
the LORD that
day,
and said
, How shall
the ark of the LORD come to me?
So he
was
unwilling
to
move
the ark of the LORD to
the City of David ;
instead,
he
took
it aside to
the house of Obed-edom
the Gittite.
So David
would
not
remove
the ark of the LORD unto
him
into
the city of David :
but
David
carried
it aside into
the house of Obededom
the Gittite.
Thus
the ark of the LORD remained
in the house of Obed-edom
the Gittite for
three months ,
and the LORD blessed him
and all his household.
And
the ark of the LORD continued
in the house of Obededom
the Gittite three months :
and the LORD blessed Obededom,
and all his household.
Now
it was reported
to
King David, “
The LORD has
blessed the house of Obed-edom
and all that belongs
to
him, because of the ark of God. ”
So David went and had
the ark of God brought
up
from the house of Obed-edom
into the City of David with rejoicing
.
And
it was told
king David, saying,
The LORD hath
blessed the house of Obededom,
and all that pertaineth
unto
him, because of the ark of God. So David went and brought
up
the ark of God from the house of Obededom
into the city of David with gladness
.
When those
carrying
the ark of the LORD had advanced
six paces, he sacrificed an
ox
and a
fattened
calf
.
And
it
was
so,
that
when they
that
bare
the ark of the LORD had gone
six paces, he sacrificed oxen
and fatlings
.
And David ,
wearing
a
linen
ephod,
danced with all his might before
the
LORD,
And David danced before
the
LORD
with all his might ;
and
David
was
girded
with
a
linen
ephod.
while
he
and all the house of Israel brought up the ark of the LORD with shouting and the sounding
of the ram’s
horn
.
So
David
and all the house of Israel brought up the ark of the LORD with shouting ,
and with
the sound
of the trumpet
.
As the ark of the LORD was
entering
the City of David, Saul’s
daughter
Michal looked down
from
a window and saw King David leaping and dancing before the LORD ,
and she despised him in her heart.
And
as the ark of the LORD came
into
the city of David, Michal Saul's
daughter
looked through
a window ,
and saw king David leaping and dancing before the LORD ;
and she despised him in her heart.
So
they brought the ark of the LORD and set it in its
place inside
the tent
that David had pitched for it .
Then
David offered burnt offerings and peace offerings before the LORD.
And
they brought in
the ark of the LORD ,
and set it in his
place ,
in
the midst
of
the
tabernacle
that David had pitched for it :
and
David offered burnt offerings and peace offerings before the LORD.
When
David had finished
sacrificing
the
burnt offerings and peace offerings, he blessed the people in the name of the LORD of Hosts.
And
as
soon
as
David had made
an
end
of
offering
burnt offerings and peace offerings, he blessed the people in the name of the LORD of hosts.
Then
he
distributed
to
every
man
and woman
among the multitude of Israel a loaf
of bread, a date
cake
, and a raisin
cake
. And
all the people departed ,
each
for
his own
home
.
And he
dealt
among all
the people,
even
among
the
whole
multitude of Israel ,
as
well
to
the
women
as
men,
to
every
one
a cake
of bread, and
a good
piece
of
flesh
, and a flagon
of
wine
. So
all the people departed every
one
to
his house
.
As
soon
as
David returned home
to bless his own
household ,
Saul’s
daughter
Michal came out to meet him.
“
How the king of Israel has
distinguished
himself
today!”
she
said.
“He
has
uncovered himself today
in the sight
of the maidservants
of his subjects
, like
a
vulgar
person
would
do.”
Then
David returned to bless his household .
And
Michal the
daughter
of
Saul
came out to meet David,
and
said,
How glorious
was
the king of Israel to
day,
who
uncovered himself to
day
in the eyes
of the handmaids
of his servants
, as
one
of
the
vain
fellows
shamelessly
uncovereth
himself!
But
David said to
Michal, “I
was dancing
before the LORD, who
chose me over
your
father and all his house when
He
appointed
me ruler over the LORD’s
people Israel .
I
will celebrate
before the LORD ,
And
David said unto
Michal, It
was before the LORD, which
chose me before
thy
father ,
and before
all his house ,
to
appoint
me ruler over the people of
the
LORD,
over
Israel :
therefore
will I
play
before the LORD .
and I will humiliate
and
humble
myself
even
more than this.
Yet
I
will be honored
by
the maidservants of
whom
you
have
spoken. ”
And I will yet
be
more vile
than thus,
and
will be base
in
mine
own
sight:
and
of
the maidservants which
thou
hast
spoken of,
of
them
shall
I
be
had
in
honor
.
And
Michal the daughter of Saul had no children
to
the day of her death.
Therefore
Michal the daughter of Saul had no child
unto
the day of her death.
