12King David was told, “The Lord has blessed the family of Obed-Edom. He has also blessed everything that belongs to him. That’s because the ark of God is in Obed-Edom’s house.”
So David went down there and brought up the ark. With great joy he brought it up from the house of Obed-Edom. He took it to the City of David. 13Those who were carrying the ark of the Lord took six steps forward. Then David sacrificed a bull and a fat calf. 14David was wearing a sacred linen apron. He danced in the sight of the Lord with all his might. 15He did it while he was bringing up the ark of the Lord. The whole community of Israel helped him bring it up. They shouted. They blew trumpets.

It happened that when the carriers of the ark of Yahweh had marched six steps that he sacrificed an ox and a fatling. Now David was dancing with all his might before Yahweh, and David was wearing a linen ephod. So David and all the house of Israel were bringing up the ark of Yahweh with shouts of joyful acclaim and with the sound of the trumpet.
