1 Chronicles 13:1-8

1Then DavidH1732 conferredH3289 withH5973 allH3605 his leadersH5057, the commandersH8269 of thousandsH505 and of hundredsH3967. 2And heH1732 saidH559 to the wholeH3605 assemblyH6951 of IsraelH3478, “IfH518 it seems goodH2896 to youH5921, and if this isH4480 of the LORDH3068 our GodH430, let us send wordH7971 far and wideH6555 toH5921 the restH7604 of our brothersH251 in allH3605 the landH776 of IsraelH3478, and alsoH5973 to the priestsH3548 and LevitesH3881 in their citiesH5892 and pasturelandsH4054, so that they may joinH6908 usH413. 3Then let us bring backH5437 the arkH727 of our GodH430H413, forH3588 we did notH3808 inquire of HimH18751 in the daysH3117 of SaulH7586.”

4AndH559 becauseH3588 this proposalH1697 seemedH5869 rightH3474 to allH3605 the peopleH5971, the wholeH3605 assemblyH6951 agreed to itH6213H3651. 5So DavidH1732 assembledH6950 allH3605 IsraelH3478, fromH4480 the River ShihorH78832 in EgyptH4714 to Lebo-hamathH5704H2574H935, to bringH935 the arkH727 of GodH430 from Kiriath-jearimH7157.

6DavidH1732 and allH3605 IsraelH3478 went upH5927 to BaalahH1173H413 ofH834 JudahH3063 (that is, Kiriath-jearimH7157) to bring upH5927 from thereH8033 the arkH727 of GodH430 the LORDH3068, who is enthronedH3427 between the cherubimH3742—the ark thatH834 is calledH7121 by the NameH8034.3 7So they carriedH7392 the arkH727 of GodH430 from the houseH1004 of AbinadabH41 onH5921 a newH2319 cartH5699, with UzzahH5798 and AhioH283 guidingH5090 the cartH5699.

8DavidH1732 and allH3605 the IsraelitesH3478 were celebratingH7832 beforeH6440 GodH430 with allH3605 their mightH5797, with songsH7892 and on harpsH3658 and lyresH5035, with tambourinesH8596, cymbalsH4700, and trumpetsH2689.
