And David madeH6213 him housesH1004 in the cityH5892 of DavidH1732, and preparedH3559 a placeH4725 for the arkH727 of GodH430, and pitchedH5186 for it a tentH168.
Then DavidH1732 saidH559, None ought to carryH5375 the arkH727 of GodH430 but the LevitesH3881: for them hath the LORDH3068 chosenH977 to carryH5375 the arkH727 of GodH430, and to ministerH8334 unto him forH5704 everH5769. {None…: Heb. It is not to carry the ark of God, but for the Levites}
And DavidH1732 gatheredH6950 all IsraelH3478 togetherH6950 to JerusalemH3389, to bring upH5927 the arkH727 of the LORDH3068 unto his placeH4725, which he had preparedH3559 for it.
And DavidH1732 assembledH622 the childrenH1121 of AaronH175, and the LevitesH3881:
Of the sonsH1121 of KohathH6955; UrielH222 the chiefH8269, and his brethrenH251 an hundredH3967 and twentyH6242: {brethren: or, kinsmen}
Of the sonsH1121 of MerariH4847; AsaiahH6222 the chiefH8269, and his brethrenH251 two hundredH3967 and twentyH6242:
Of the sonsH1121 of GershomH1647; JoelH3100 the chiefH8269, and his brethrenH251 an hundredH3967 and thirtyH7970:
Of the sonsH1121 of ElizaphanH469; ShemaiahH8098 the chiefH8269, and his brethrenH251 two hundredH3967:
Of the sonsH1121 of HebronH2275; ElielH447 the chiefH8269, and his brethrenH251 fourscoreH8084:
Of the sonsH1121 of UzzielH5816; AmminadabH5992 the chiefH8269, and his brethrenH251 an hundredH3967 and twelveH8147+H6240.
And DavidH1732 calledH7121 for ZadokH6659 and AbiatharH54 the priestsH3548, and for the LevitesH3881, for UrielH222, AsaiahH6222, and JoelH3100, ShemaiahH8098, and ElielH447, and AmminadabH5992,
And saidH559 unto them, Ye are the chiefH7218 of the fathersH1 of the LevitesH3881: sanctifyH6942 yourselves, both ye and your brethrenH251, that ye may bring upH5927 the arkH727 of the LORDH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478 unto the place that I have preparedH3559 for it.
For because ye did it not at the firstH7223, the LORDH3068 our GodH430 made a breachH6555 upon us, for that we soughtH1875 him not after the due orderH4941.
So the priestsH3548 and the LevitesH3881 sanctifiedH6942 themselves to bring upH5927 the arkH727 of the LORDH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478.
And the childrenH1121 of the LevitesH3881 bareH5375 the arkH727 of GodH430 upon their shouldersH3802 with the stavesH4133 thereon, as MosesH4872 commandedH6680 according to the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068.
And DavidH1732 spakeH559 to the chiefH8269 of the LevitesH3881 to appointH5975 their brethrenH251 to be the singersH7891 with instrumentsH3627 of musickH7892, psalteriesH5035 and harpsH3658 and cymbalsH4700, soundingH8085, by lifting upH7311 the voiceH6963 with joyH8057.
So the LevitesH3881 appointedH5975 HemanH1968 the sonH1121 of JoelH3100; and of his brethrenH251, AsaphH623 the sonH1121 of BerechiahH1296; and of the sonsH1121 of MerariH4847 their brethrenH251, EthanH387 the sonH1121 of KushaiahH6984;
And with them their brethrenH251 of the secondH4932 degree, ZechariahH2148, BenH1122, and JaazielH3268, and ShemiramothH8070, and JehielH3171, and UnniH6042, EliabH446, and BenaiahH1141, and MaaseiahH4641, and MattithiahH4993, and EliphelehH466, and MikneiahH4737, and ObededomH5654, and JeielH3273, the portersH7778.
So the singersH7891, HemanH1968, AsaphH623, and EthanH387, were appointed to soundH8085 with cymbalsH4700 of brassH5178;
And ZechariahH2148, and AzielH5815, and ShemiramothH8070, and JehielH3171, and UnniH6042, and EliabH446, and MaaseiahH4641, and BenaiahH1141, with psalteriesH5035 on AlamothH5961;
And MattithiahH4993, and EliphelehH466, and MikneiahH4737, and ObededomH5654, and JeielH3273, and AzaziahH5812, with harpsH3658 on the SheminithH8067 to excelH5329. {on the…: or, on the eighth to oversee}
And ChenaniahH3663, chiefH8269 of the LevitesH3881, was for songH4853: he instructedH3256 about the songH4853, because he was skilfulH995. {was for…: or, was for the carriage: he instructed about the carriage} {song: Heb. lifting up}
And BerechiahH1296 and ElkanahH511 were doorkeepersH7778 for the arkH727.
And ShebaniahH7645, and JehoshaphatH3146, and NethaneelH5417, and AmasaiH6022, and ZechariahH2148, and BenaiahH1141, and EliezerH461, the priestsH3548, did blowH2690+H2690 with the trumpetsH2689 beforeH6440 the arkH727 of GodH430: and ObededomH5654 and JehiahH3174 were doorkeepersH7778 for the arkH727.
So DavidH1732, and the eldersH2205 of IsraelH3478, and the captainsH8269 over thousandsH505, wentH1980 to bring upH5927 the arkH727 of the covenantH1285 of the LORDH3068 out of the houseH1004 of ObededomH5654 with joyH8057.
And it came to pass, when GodH430 helpedH5826 the LevitesH3881 that bareH5375 the arkH727 of the covenantH1285 of the LORDH3068, that they offeredH2076 sevenH7651 bullocksH6499 and sevenH7651 ramsH352.
And DavidH1732 was clothedH3736 with a robeH4598 of fine linenH948, and all the LevitesH3881 that bareH5375 the arkH727, and the singersH7891, and ChenaniahH3663 the masterH8269 of the songH4853 with the singersH7891: DavidH1732 also had upon him an ephodH646 of linenH906. {song: or, carriage}
Thus all IsraelH3478 brought upH5927 the arkH727 of the covenantH1285 of the LORDH3068 with shoutingH8643, and with soundH6963 of the cornetH7782, and with trumpetsH2689, and with cymbalsH4700, making a noiseH8085 with psalteriesH5035 and harpsH3658.
And it came to pass, as the arkH727 of the covenantH1285 of the LORDH3068 cameH935 to the cityH5892 of DavidH1732, that MichalH4324 the daughterH1323 of SaulH7586 looking outH8259 at a windowH2474 sawH7200 kingH4428 DavidH1732 dancingH7540 and playingH7832: and she despisedH959 him in her heartH3820.

These chiefH7218 fathersH1 of the LevitesH3881 were chiefH7218 throughout their generationsH8435; these dweltH3427 at JerusalemH3389.
So the priestsH3548 and the LevitesH3881 sanctifiedH6942 themselves to bring upH5927 the arkH727 of the LORDH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478.
These likewise castH5307 lotsH1486 over againstH5980 their brethrenH251 the sonsH1121 of AaronH175 in the presenceH6440 of DavidH1732 the kingH4428, and ZadokH6659, and AhimelechH288, and the chiefH7218 of the fathersH1 of the priestsH3548 and LevitesH3881, even the principalH7218 fathersH1 over againstH5980 their youngerH6996 brethrenH251.
And MosesH4872 went downH3381 from the mountH2022 unto the peopleH5971, and sanctifiedH6942 the peopleH5971; and they washedH3526 their clothesH8071.
And he saidH559 unto the peopleH5971, BeH1961 readyH3559 against the thirdH7969 dayH3117: comeH5066 not at your wivesH802.
And it came to pass, when the priestsH3548 were come outH3318 of the holyH6944 place: (for all the priestsH3548 that were presentH4672 were sanctifiedH6942, and did not then waitH8104 by courseH4256: {present: Heb. found}
And he brought inH935 the priestsH3548 and the LevitesH3881, and gathered them togetherH622 into the eastH4217 streetH7339,
And saidH559 unto them, HearH8085 me, ye LevitesH3881, sanctifyH6942 now yourselves, and sanctifyH6942 the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068 GodH430 of your fathersH1, and carry forthH3318 the filthinessH5079 out of the holyH6944 place.
Then they killedH7819 the passoverH6453 on the fourteenthH702+H6240 day of the secondH8145 monthH2320: and the priestsH3548 and the LevitesH3881 were ashamedH3637, and sanctifiedH6942 themselves, and brought inH935 the burnt offeringsH5930 into the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068.
So killH7819 the passoverH6453, and sanctifyH6942 yourselves, and prepareH3559 your brethrenH251, that they may doH6213 according to the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 by the handH3027 of MosesH4872.
It shall be for the priestsH3548 that are sanctifiedH6942 of the sonsH1121 of ZadokH6659; which have keptH8104 my chargeH4931, which went not astrayH8582 when the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 went astrayH8582, as the LevitesH3881 went astrayH8582. {It…: or, The sanctified portion shall be for the priests} {charge: or, ward, or, ordinance}
I beseechG3870 youG5209 thereforeG3767, brethrenG80, byG1223 the merciesG3628 of GodG2316, that ye presentG3936 yourG5216 bodiesG4983 a livingG2198 sacrificeG2378, holyG40, acceptableG2101 unto GodG2316, which is yourG5216 reasonableG3050 serviceG2999.
AndG2532 beG4964 notG3361 conformedG4964 to thisG5129 worldG165: butG235 be ye transformedG3339 by the renewingG342 of yourG5216 mindG3563, thatG1519 yeG5209 may proveG1381 whatG5101 is that goodG18, andG2532 acceptableG2101, andG2532 perfectG5046, willG2307 of GodG2316.
AndG2532 they sungG103 a newG2537 songG5603, sayingG3004, Thou artG1488 worthyG514 to takeG2983 the bookG975, andG2532 to openG455 the sealsG4973 thereofG846: forG3754 thou wast slainG4969, andG2532 hast redeemedG59 usG2248 to GodG2316 byG1722 thyG4675 bloodG129 out ofG1537 everyG3956 kindredG5443, andG2532 tongueG1100, andG2532 peopleG2992, andG2532 nationG1484;
