1Then DavidH1732 consultedH3289 with the captainsH8269 of the thousandsH505 and the hundredsH3967, with everyH3605 leaderH5057. 2DavidH1732 saidH559 to allH3605 the assemblyH6951 of IsraelH3478, “IfH518 it seems goodH2895 to you, and if it is from the LordH3068 our GodH430, 1let us sendH7971 word everywhereH6555 to our kinsmenH251 who remainH7604 in allH3605 the landH776 of IsraelH3478, and to the priestsH3548 and LevitesH3881 who are with them in their citiesH5892 with pastureH4054 landsH4054, that they meetH6908 with us; 3and 2let us bringH5437 backH5437 the arkH727 of our GodH430 to us, 3sinceH3588 we did not seekH1875 it in the daysH3117 of SaulH7586.” 4Then allH3605 the assemblyH6951 saidH559 that they would doH6213 soH3651, for 4thisH1697 wasH3474 rightH3474 in the eyesH5869 of allH3605 the peopleH5971.
