David Brings the Ark to Jerusalem

15:1 David constructed buildings in the City of David; he then prepared a place for the ark of God and pitched a tent for it. 15:2 Then David said, “Only the Levites may carry the ark of God, for the Lord chose them to carry the ark of the Lord and to serve before him perpetually. 15:3 David assembled all Israel at Jerusalem to bring the ark of the Lord up to the place he had prepared for it. 15:4 David gathered together the descendants of Aaron and the Levites: 15:5 From the descendants of Kohath: Uriel the leader and 120 of his relatives. 15:6 From the descendants of Merari: Asaiah the leader and 220 of his relatives. 15:7 From the descendants of Gershom: Joel the leader and 130 of his relatives.
