2 Samuel 6:8-17

8And David was displeased, because Yhwh had made a breach upon Uzzah: and he called the name of the place Perez–uzzah to this day.12 9And David was afraid of Yhwh that day, and said, How shall the ark of Yhwh come to me? 10So David would not remove the ark of Yhwh unto him into the city of David: but David carried it aside into the house of Obed–edom the Gittite. 11And the ark of Yhwh continued in the house of Obed–edom the Gittite three months: And Yhwh blessed Obed–edom, and all his household.

12And it was told king David, saying, Yhwh hath blessed the house of Obed–edom, and all that pertaineth unto him, because of the ark of God. So David went and brought up the ark of God from the house of Obed–edom into the city of David with gladness. 13And it was so, that when they that bare the ark of Yhwh had gone six paces, he sacrificed oxen and fatlings. 14And David danced before Yhwh with all his might; and David was girded with a linen ephod. 15So David and all the house of Israel brought up the ark of Yhwh with shouting, and with the sound of the trumpet. 16And as the ark of Yhwh came into the city of David, Michal Saul’s daughter looked through a window, and saw king David leaping and dancing before Yhwh; and she despised him in her heart.

17And they brought in the ark of Yhwh, and set it in his place, in the midst of the tabernacle that David had pitched for it: and David offered burnt offerings and peace offerings before Yhwh.3
