God’s Word Translation
2 Samuel 6:12-17
12King David was told, “The Lord has blessed Obed Edom’s home and everything he owns because of the ark of God.” Then David joyfully went to get the ark of God from Obed Edom’s house and bring it to the City of David.
13When those who carried the ark of the Lord had gone six steps, David sacrificed a bull and a fattened calf.
14Wearing a linen ephod, David danced in the Lord’s presence with all his might.
15He and the entire nation of Israel brought the ark of the Lord with shouts of joy and the sounding of rams’ horns.
16When the ark of the Lord came to the City of David, Saul’s daughter Michal looked out of a window and saw King David leaping and dancing in the Lord’s presence, so she despised him.
17The men carrying the ark set it in its place inside the tent David had put up for it. David sacrificed burnt offerings and fellowship offerings in the Lord’s presence.
