2 Samuel 6:12-19

12People told King David, ‘The Lord has blessed Obed-Edom's family and everything that belongs to him, because of the Covenant Box.’ So David went back to Obed-Edom's house. He was now happy to bring the Covenant Box from there to the City of David.

13The men who were carrying it walked six steps and they stopped. Then David offered a bull and a fat calf as sacrifices to God.

14David was wearing a linen ephod. He danced with all his strength to worship the Lord.

15He and all the Israelites brought the Lord's Covenant Box to Jerusalem. They shouted and they made a loud noise with trumpets.

16While they were bringing the Lord's Covenant Box into the City of David, Saul's daughter Michal looked out through a window. She saw what King David was doing. He was jumping and dancing to worship the Lord. Michal felt ashamed of him.

17David had put up a special tent for the Covenant Box, so they took it there. They put it in its place inside the tent. Then David offered burnt offerings and friendship offerings to the Lord.

18After David had offered those sacrifices, he prayed that the Lord Almighty would bless the people.

19Then he gave a gift to every man and woman in the crowd of Israelite people. Each person received a loaf of bread, some dates and some raisins. Then all the people went to their homes.
