2 Samuel 6:12-17

12Now it was reported to King David, saying, “The Lord has blessed the house of Obed-edom and all that belongs to him, on account of the ark of God.” 1So David went and brought the ark of God up from the house of Obed-edom to 2the city of David with joy. 13And so it was, that 3when 4those carrying the ark of the Lord marched six paces, he sacrificed an 5ox and a fattened steer. 14And 6David was dancing before the Lord with all his strength, and David was 7wearing a linen ephod. 15So David and all the house of Israel were bringing up the ark of the Lord with joyful shouting and the sound of the trumpet.

16Then it happened, as the ark of the Lord was coming into the city of David, that 8Michal the daughter of Saul looked down through the window and saw King David leaping and dancing before the Lord; and she was contemptuous of him in her heart.

17Now they brought in the ark of the Lord and set it 9in its place inside the tent which David had pitched for it; and 10David offered burnt offerings and peace offerings before the Lord.
