| 1 | [David] made him houses in the city of David; and he prepared a place for the ark of God, and pitched for it a tent. | 2Sa 5:9 2Sa 13:7 2Sa 13:8 2Sa 14:24 |
| 2 | Then David said, None ought to carry the ark of God but the Levites: for them has Yahweh chosen to carry the ark of God, and to minister to him forever. | Nm 4:2-15 Nm 4:19-15 Nm 4:20-15 Nm 7:9 Dt 10:8 Dt 31:9 Jsh 3:3 Jsh 6:6 2Ch 35:3 |
| 3 | David assembled all Israel at Jerusalem, to bring up the ark of Yahweh to its place, which he had prepared for it. | 1Ch 13:5 1Ki 8:1 |
| 4 | David gathered together the sons of Aaron, and the Levites: | 1Ch 6:16-20 1Ch 6:49-20 1Ch 6:50-20 1Ch 12:26-28 Ex 6:16-22 Nm 3:4 |
| 5 | of the sons of Kohath, Uriel the chief, and his brothers one hundred twenty; | 1Ch 6:22-24 |
| 6 | of the sons of Merari, Asaiah the chief, and his brothers two hundred twenty; | 1Ch 6:29 1Ch 6:30 |
| 7 | of the sons of Gershom, Joel the chief, and his brothers one hundred thirty; | 1Ch 15:11 1Ch 23:8 |
| 8 | of the sons of Elizaphan, Shemaiah the chief, and his brothers two hundred; | Ex 6:22 |
| 9 | of the sons of Hebron, Eliel the chief, and his brothers eighty; | 1Ch 6:2 1Ch 23:12 1Ch 23:19 1Ch 26:23 1Ch 26:30 1Ch 26:31 Ex 6:18 Nm 26:58 |
| 10 | of the sons of Uzziel, Amminadab the chief, and his brothers one hundred twelve. | 1Ch 6:18 1Ch 23:12 Ex 6:18 Ex 6:22 |
| 11 | David called for Zadok and Abiathar the priests, and for the Levites, for Uriel, Asaiah, and Joel, Shemaiah, and Eliel, and Amminadab, | 1Ch 12:28 1Ch 18:16 1Sa 22:20-23 2Sa 8:17 2Sa 15:24-29 2Sa 15:35-29 2Sa 20:25 1Ki 2:35 |
| 12 | and said to them, You are the heads of the fathers` [houses] of the Levites: sanctify yourselves, both you and your brothers, that you may bring up the ark of Yahweh, the God of Israel, to [the place] that I have prepared for it. | 1Ch 9:34 1Ch 24:31 |
| 13 | For because you didn`t carry it at the first, Yahweh our God made a breach on us, because we didn`t seek him according to the ordinance. | 1Ch 13:7-9 2Sa 6:3 |
| 14 | So the priests and the Levites sanctified themselves to bring up the ark of Yahweh, the God of Israel. | Lv 10:3 2Ch 29:15 2Ch 29:34 Jl 2:16 Jl 2:17 |
| 15 | The children of the Levites bore the ark of God on their shoulders with the poles thereon, as Moses commanded according to the word of Yahweh. | Ex 25:12 Ex 25:12-15 Ex 37:3-5 Ex 40:20 Nm 4:6 Nm 4:15 Nm 7:9 1Ki 8:8 2Ch 5:9 |

| 18 | and with them their brothers of the second degree, Zechariah, Ben, and Jaaziel, and Shemiramoth, and Jehiel, and Unni, Eliab, and Benaiah, and Maaseiah, and Mattithiah, and Eliphelehu, and Mikneiah, and Obed-edom, and Jeiel, the doorkeepers. | 1Ch 25:2-6 1Ch 25:9-31 |
| 19 | So the singers, Heman, Asaph, and Ethan, [were appointed] with cymbals of brass to sound aloud; | 1Ch 15:16 1Ch 13:8 1Ch 16:5 1Ch 16:42 1Ch 25:1 1Ch 25:6 Ps 150:5 |
| 20 | and Zechariah, and Aziel, and Shemiramoth, and Jehiel, and Unni, and Eliab, and Maaseiah, and Benaiah, with psalteries set to Alamoth; | Ps 46:1 |
| 21 | and Mattithiah, and Eliphelehu, and Mikneiah, and Obed-edom, and Jeiel, and Azaziah, with harps tuned to the eight-stringed lyre, to lead. | 1Ch 15:18 1Ch 16:5 |
| 22 | Chenaniah, chief of the Levites, was over the song: he instructed about the song, because he was skillful. | 1Ch 15:16 1Ch 15:27 |
| 23 | Berechiah and Elkanah were doorkeepers for the ark. | 1Ch 9:21-23 2Ki 22:4 2Ki 25:18 Ps 84:10 |
| 24 | Shebaniah, and Joshaphat, and Nethanel, and Amasai, and Zechariah, and Benaiah, and Eliezer, the priests, did blow the trumpets before the ark of God: and Obed-edom and Jehiah were doorkeepers for the ark. | 1Ch 16:6 Nm 10:8 2Ch 5:12 2Ch 5:13 Ps 81:13 Jl 2:1 Jl 2:15 |
| 25 | So David, and the elders of Israel, and the captains over thousands, went to bring up the ark of the covenant of Yahweh out of the house of Obed-edom with joy. | 2Sa 6:12 2Sa 6:13-23 1Ki 8:1 |
| 26 | It happened, when God helped the Levites who bore the ark of the covenant of Yahweh, that they sacrificed seven bulls and seven rams. | 1Ch 29:14 1Sa 7:12 Ac 26:22 2Co 2:16 2Co 3:5 |
| 27 | David was clothed with a robe of fine linen, and all the Levites who bore the ark, and the singers, and Chenaniah the master of the song [with] the singers: and David had on him an ephod of linen. | 1Sa 2:18 2Sa 6:14 |
| 28 | Thus all Israel brought up the ark of the covenant of Yahweh with shouting, and with sound of the cornet, and with trumpets, and with cymbals, sounding aloud with psalteries and harps. | 2Sa 6:15 |
| 29 | It happened, as the ark of the covenant of Yahweh came to the city of David, that Michal the daughter of Saul looked out at the window, and saw king David dancing and playing; and she despised him in her heart. | 1Ch 17:1 Nm 10:33 Dt 31:26 Jsh 4:7 Jg 20:27 1Sa 4:3 Jer 3:16 Heb 9:4 |
