Thus all the workH4399 that SolomonH8010 madeH6213 for the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068 was finishedH7999: and SolomonH8010 broughtH935 in all the thingsH6944 that DavidH1732 his fatherH1 had dedicatedH6944; and the silverH3701, and the goldH2091, and all the instrumentsH3627, putH5414 he among the treasuresH214 of the houseH1004 of GodH430.
Then SolomonH8010 assembledH6950 the eldersH2205 of IsraelH3478, and all the headsH7218 of the tribesH4294, the chiefH5387 of the fathersH1 of the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, unto JerusalemH3389, to bring upH5927 the arkH727 of the covenantH1285 of the LORDH3068 out of the cityH5892 of DavidH1732, which is ZionH6726.
Wherefore all the menH376 of IsraelH3478 assembledH6950 themselves unto the kingH4428 in the feastH2282 which was in the seventhH7637 monthH2320.
And all the eldersH2205 of IsraelH3478 cameH935; and the LevitesH3881 took upH5375 the arkH727.
And they brought upH5927 the arkH727, and the tabernacleH168 of the congregationH4150, and all the holyH6944 vesselsH3627 that were in the tabernacleH168, these did the priestsH3548 and the LevitesH3881 bring upH5927.
Also kingH4428 SolomonH8010, and all the congregationH5712 of IsraelH3478 that were assembledH3259 unto him beforeH6440 the arkH727, sacrificedH2076 sheepH6629 and oxenH1241, which could not be toldH5608 nor numberedH4487 for multitudeH7230.
And the priestsH3548 brought inH935 the arkH727 of the covenantH1285 of the LORDH3068 unto his placeH4725, to the oracleH1687 of the houseH1004, into the mostH6944 holyH6944 place, even under the wingsH3671 of the cherubimsH3742:
For the cherubimsH3742 spread forthH6566 their wingsH3671 over the placeH4725 of the arkH727, and the cherubimsH3742 coveredH3680 the arkH727 and the stavesH905 thereof aboveH4605.
And they drew outH748 the stavesH905 of the ark, that the endsH7218 of the stavesH905 were seenH7200 from the arkH727 beforeH6440 the oracleH1687; but they were not seenH7200 withoutH2351. And there it is unto this dayH3117. {there…: or, they are there}
There was nothing in the arkH727 save the twoH8147 tablesH3871 which MosesH4872 putH5414 therein at HorebH2722, when the LORDH3068 madeH3772 a covenant with the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, when they came outH3318 of EgyptH4714. {when the LORD: or, where, etc}
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}
Also the LevitesH3881 which were the singersH7891, all of them of AsaphH623, of HemanH1968, of JeduthunH3038, with their sonsH1121 and their brethrenH251, being arrayedH3847 in white linenH948, having cymbalsH4700 and psalteriesH5035 and harpsH3658, stoodH5975 at the east endH4217 of the altarH4196, and with them an hundredH3967 and twentyH6242 priestsH3548 soundingH2690 with trumpetsH2689:)
It came even to pass, as the trumpetersH2690+H2690 and singersH7891 were as oneH259, to make oneH259 soundH6963 to be heardH8085 in praisingH1984 and thankingH3034 the LORDH3068; and when they lifted upH7311 their voiceH6963 with the trumpetsH2689 and cymbalsH4700 and instrumentsH3627 of musickH7892, and praisedH1984 the LORDH3068, saying, For he is goodH2896; for his mercyH2617 endureth for everH5769: that then the houseH1004 was filledH4390 with a cloudH6051, even the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068;
So that the priestsH3548 couldH3201 not standH5975 to ministerH8334 by reasonH6440 of the cloudH6051: for the gloryH3519 of the LORDH3068 had filledH4390 the houseH1004 of GodH430.

And when AaronH175 and his sonsH1121 have made an endH3615 of coveringH3680 the sanctuaryH6944, and all the vesselsH3627 of the sanctuaryH6944, as the campH4264 is to set forwardH5265; afterH310 that, the sonsH1121 of KohathH6955 shall comeH935 to bearH5375 it: but they shall not touchH5060 any holy thingH6944, lest they dieH4191. These things are the burdenH4853 of the sonsH1121 of KohathH6955 in the tabernacleH168 of the congregationH4150.

And JoshuaH3091 the sonH1121 of NunH5126 calledH7121 the priestsH3548, and saidH559 unto them, Take upH5375 the arkH727 of the covenantH1285, and let sevenH7651 priestsH3548 bearH5375 sevenH7651 trumpetsH7782 of rams' hornsH3104 beforeH6440 the arkH727 of the LORDH3068.
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 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.
