1 Chronicles 15:25–16:3

²⁵David,ⁱ the elders of Israel, and the commanders of thousands went with rejoicing to bring the ark of the covenant of the Lord from the house of Obed-edom.^{j 26}Because God helped the Levites who were carrying the ark of the covenant of the Lord, with God’s help, they sacrificed seven bulls and seven rams.^k

²⁷Now David was dressed in a robe of fine linen, as were all the Levites who were carrying the ark, as well as the singers and Chenaniah, the music leader of the singers. David also wore a linen ephod. ²⁸So all Israel brought up the ark of the covenant of the Lord with shouts, the sound of the trumpet, trumpets, and cymbals, and the playing of harps and lyres. ²⁹As the ark of the covenant of the Lord was entering the city of David, Saul’s daughter Michal looked down from the window and saw King David leaping^A and dancing, and she despised him in her heart.

16They^l brought the ark of God and placed it inside the tent David had pitched for it.^m Then they offered burnt offerings and fellowship offerings in God’s presence. ²When David had finished offering the burnt offerings and the fellowship offerings, he blessed the people in the name of the Lord. ³Then he distributed to each and every Israelite, both men and women, a loaf of bread, a date cake, and a raisin cake.
