1 Chronicles 13:5-8

13:5 So David assembled all Israel from the Shihor River ¹  in Egypt to Lebo Hamath, ²  to bring the ark of God from Kiriath Jearim. 13:6 David and all Israel went up to Baalah (that is, Kiriath Jearim) in Judah to bring up from there the ark of God the Lord, who sits enthroned between the cherubim – the ark that is called by his name. ³ 

13:7 They transported the ark on a new cart from the house of Abinadab; Uzzah and Ahio were guiding the cart, 13:8 while David and all Israel were energetically ⁴  celebrating before God, singing and playing various stringed instruments, ⁵  tambourines, cymbals, and trumpets.

[13:5]  ¹ tn The word “River” is not in the Hebrew text, but has been supplied for clarity.

[13:5]  ² tn Or “the entrance to Hamath.”

[13:6]  ³ tn Heb “the ark of God the Lord who sits [between] the cherubim which is called [by his] name.”

[13:8]  ⁵ tn Heb “with all strength.”

[13:8]  ⁶ tn Heb “with songs and with zithers [meaning uncertain] and with harps.” Due to the collocation with “harps,” some type of stringed instrument is probably in view.
