CHAP. XV.
1 David having prepared a place for the ark,
ordereth the priests and Levites to bring it
from Obed-edom: 25 He performeth the solemnity
with great joy: 29 Michal despiseth
him.
1 And David made him houses in the
city of David, and prepared a place
for the ark of God, and pitched for it a
tent.
2 Then David said, note None ought to
carry the note ark of God but the Levites:
for them hath the Lord chosen to carry
the ark of God, and to minister to him
for ever.
3 And David assembled all Israel to
Jerusalem, to bring up the ark of the
Lord to its place, which he had prepared
for it.
4 And David assembled the children
of Aaron, and the Levites:
5 Of the sons of Kohath; Uriel the
chief, and his note brethren a hundred and
twenty:
6 Of the sons of Merari; Asaiah the
chief, and his brethren two hundred and
twenty:
7 Of the sons of Gershom; Joel the
chief, and his brethren a hundred and
thirty:
8 Of the sons of Elizaphan; Shemaiah
the chief, and his brethren two hundred:
9 Of the sons of Hebron; Eliel the
chief, and his brethren eighty:
10 Of the sons of Uzziel: Amminadab
the chief, and his brethren a hundred
and twelve.
11 And David called for Zadok and
Abiathar the priests, and for the Levites,
for Uriel, Asaiah, and Joel, Shemaiah,
and Eliel, and Amminadab,
12 And said to them, Ye are the chief
of the fathers of the Levites: sanctify
yourselves, both ye and your brethren,
that ye may bring up the ark of the Lord
God of Israel to the place that I have prepared
for it.
13 For because ye did it not at the
first, the Lord our God made a breach
upon us, for that we sought him not after
the due order.
14 So the priests and the Levites sanctified
themselves to bring up the ark of
the Lord God of Israel.
15 And the children of the Levites
bore the ark of God upon their shoulders
with the staffs on it, as note Moses commanded,
according to the word of the
Lord.
16 And David spoke to the chief of
the Levites to appoint their brethren to
be the singers with instruments of music,
psalteries, and harps, and cymbals,
sounding, by lifting up the voice with
joy.
17 So the Levites appointed note Heman
the son of Joel; and of his brethren,
note Asaph the son of Berechiah; and of the
sons of Merari their brethren, note Ethan
the son of Kushaiah;
18 And with them their brethren of
the second degree, Zechariah, Ben, and
Jaaziel, and Shemiramoth, and Jehiel,
and Unni, Eliab, and Benaiah, and Maaseiah,
and Mattithiah, and Elipheleh,
and Mikneiah, and Obed-edom, and
Jeiel, the porters.
19 So the singers, Heman, Asaph, and
Ethan, were appointed to sound with
cymbals of brass;
20 And Zechariah, and Aziel, and
Shemiramoth, and Jehiel, and Unni,
and Eliab, and Maaseiah, and Benaiah,
with psalteries on Alamoth;
21 And Mattithiah, and Elipheleh,
and Mikneiah, and Obed-edom, and
Jeiel, and Azaziah, with harps note on the
Sheminith to excel.
22 And Chenaniah, chief of the Levites,
note was for note song: he instructed about
the song, because he was skillful.
23 And Berechiah and Elkanah were
door-keepers for the ark.
24 And Shebaniah, and Jehoshaphat,
and Nethaneel, and Amasai, and Zechariah,
and Benaiah, and Eliezer the
priests, did blow with the trumpets before
the ark of God: and Obed-edom
and Jehiah were door-keepers for the
ark.
25 ¶2; So note David and the elders of Israel,
and the captains over thousands, went
to bring up the ark of the covenant of
the Lord from the house of Obed-edom
with joy.
26 And it came to pass, when God
helped the Levites that bore the ark of
the covenant of the Lord, that they offered
seven bullocks and seven rams.
27 And David was clothed with a robe
of fine linen, and all the Levites that bore
the ark, and the singers, and Chenaniah
the master of the note song with the singers:
David also had upon him an ephod of
linen.
28 Thus all Israel brought up the ark
of the covenant of the Lord with shouting,
and with sound of the cornet, and
-- --
Before CHRIST, 1042.
with trumpets, and with cymbals, making
a noise with psalteries and harps.
29 ¶2; And it came to pass, as the ark of
the covenant of the Lord came to the
city of David, that Michal the daughter
of Saul, looking out at a window, saw
king David dancing and playing: and
she despised him in her heart.
