1 Chronicles 13:1-7
David Fetches the Ark
1 And David consulted with the captains of thousands and hundreds, [and] with every leader.
1:
2 And David said unto all the congregation of Israel, If [it seem] good unto you, and [that it be] of the LORD our God, let us send abroad unto our brethren every where, [that are] left in all the land of Israel, and with them [also] to the priests and Levites [which are] in their cities [and] suburbs, that they may gather themselves unto us:
2:
3 And let us bring again the ark of our God to us: for we inquired not at it in the days of Saul.
3:
4 And all the congregation said that they would do so: for the thing was right in the eyes of all the people.
4:
5 So David gathered all Israel together, from Shihor of Egypt even unto the entering of Hemath, to bring the ark of God from Kirjathjearim.
5:
6 And David went up, and all Israel, to Baalah, [that is], to Kirjathjearim, which [belonged] to Judah, to bring up thence the ark of God the LORD, that dwelleth [between] the cherubims, whose name is called [on it].
6:
7 And they carried the ark of God in a new cart out of the house of Abinadab: and Uzza and Ahio drave the cart.
7:
