None ought to carry
<05375> (8800)

the ark
<0727>

of God
<0430>

but the Levites
<03881>_:

for them hath the LORD
<03068>

chosen
<0977> (8804)

to carry
<05375> (8800)

the ark
<0727>

of God
<0430>_,

and to minister
<08334> (8763)

unto him for
<05704>

ever
<05769>_.

{None...: Heb. It is not to carry the ark of God, but for the Levites}

15:3

<01732>

gathered

<08269>_,

<0251>

<03967>

and twelve
<08147> <06240>_.

15:11

And David
<01732>

called
<07121> (8799)

for Zadok
<06659>

And said
<0559> (8799)

unto them, Ye [are] the chief
<07218>

of the fathers
<01>

of the Levites
<03881>_:

sanctify
<06942> (8690)

yourselves, [both] ye and your brethren
<0251>_,

that ye may bring up
<05927> (8689)

the ark
<0727>

of the LORD
<03068>

God
<0430>

of Israel
<03478>

unto [the place that] I have prepared
<03559> (8689)

for it.

15:13

For because ye [did it] not at the first
<07223>_,

the LORD
<03068>

our God
<0430>

made a breach
<06555> (8804)

upon us, for that we sought
<01875> (8804)

him not after the due order
<04941>_.

15:14

So the priests
<03548>

and the Levites
<03881>

sanctified
<06942> (8691)

themselves to bring up
<05927> (8687)

the ark
<0727>

of the LORD
<03068>

God
<0430>

of Israel
<03478>_.

15:15

And the children
<01121>

of the Levites
<03881>

bare
<05375> (8799)

the ark
<0727>

<0430>

upon their shoulders
<03802>

with the staves
<04133>

thereon, as Moses
<04872>

commanded
<06680> (8765)

according to the word
<01697>

of the LORD
<03068>_.

15:16

And David
<01732>

spake
<0559> (8799)

to the chief
<08269>

<03881>

to appoint
<05975> (8687)

<03658>

<04700>_,

sounding
<08085> (8688)_,

by lifting up
<07311> (8687)

the voice
<06963>

with joy
<08057>_.

15:17

So the Levites
<03881>

appointed
<05975> (8686)

<03100>_;

<0387>

the son
<01121>

of Kushaiah

<0466>_,

and Mikneiah
<04737>_,

and Obededom
<05654>_,

and Jeiel
<03273>_,

and Azaziah
<05812>_,

with harps
<03658>

on the Sheminith
<08067>

to excel
<05329> (8763)_.

{on the...: or, on the eighth to oversee}

15:22

And Chenaniah
<03663>_,

chief
<08269>

of the Levites
<03881>_,

[was] for song
<04853>_:

he instructed
<03256>

about the song
<04853>_,

because he [was] skilful
<0995> (8688)_.

{was for...: or, was for the carriage: he instructed about the carriage} {song: Heb. lifting up}

15:23

And Berechiah
<01296>

and Elkanah
<0511>

[were] doorkeepers
<07778>

and Zechariah
<02148>_,

and Benaiah
<01141>_,

and Eliezer
<0461>_,

the priests
<03548>_,

did blow
<02690> (8688) (8675) <02690> (8764)

with the trumpets
<02689>

before
<06440>

the ark
<0727>

of God
<0430>_:

and Obededom
<05654>

and Jehiah
<03174>

[were] doorkeepers
<07778>

for the ark
<0727>_.

15:25

So David
<01732>_,

and the elders
<02205>

of Israel
<03478>_,

and the captains
<08269>

over thousands
<0505>_,

went
<01980> (8802)

to bring up
<05927> (8687)

the ark
<0727>

of the covenant
<01285>

of the LORD
<03068>

out of the house
<01004>

of Obededom
<05654>

with joy
<08057>_.

15:26

And it came to pass, when God
<0430>

helped
<05826> (8800)

the Levites
<03881>

that bare
<05375> (8802)

the ark
<0727>

of the covenant
<01285>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

that they offered
<02076> (8799)

seven
<07651>

bullocks
<06499>

and seven
<07651>

rams
<0352>_.

15:27

And David
<01732>

[was] clothed
<03736> (8794)

with a robe
<04598>

of fine linen
<0948>_,

and all the Levites
<03881>

that bare
<05375> (8802)

the ark
<0727>_,

and the singers
<07891> (8789)_,

and Chenaniah
<03663>

the master
<08269>

of the song
<04853>

with the singers
<07891> (8789)_:

David
<01732>

also [had] upon him an ephod
<0646>

of linen
<0906>_.

{song: or, carriage}

15:28

Thus all Israel
<03478>

brought up
<05927> (8688)

the ark
<0727>

of the covenant
<01285>

of the LORD
<03068>

with shouting
<08643>_,

and with sound
<06963>

of the cornet
<07782>_,

and with trumpets
<02689>_,

and with cymbals
<04700>_,

making a noise
<08085> (8688)

with psalteries
<05035>

and harps
<03658>_.

15:29

And it came to pass, [as] the ark
<0727>

of the covenant
<01285>

of the LORD
<03068>

came
<0935> (8804)

to the city
<05892>

of David
<01732>_,

that Michal
<04324>

the daughter
<01323>

of Saul
<07586>

looking out
<08259> (8738)

at a window
<02474>

saw
<07200> (8799)

king
<04428>

David
<01732>

dancing
<07540> (8764)

and playing
<07832> (8764)_:

and she despised
<0959> (8799)

him in her heart
<03820>_.
