And if you give even a cup of cold water to one of the least of my followers, you will surely be rewarded.”

Then David and the elders of Israel and the generals of the army went to the house of Obed edom to bring the Ark of the Lord’s Covenant up to Jerusalem with a great celebration.And because God was clearly helping the Levites as they carried the Ark of the Lord’s Covenant, they sacrificed seven bulls and seven rams.David was dressed in a robe of fine linen, as were all the Levites who carried the Ark, and also the singers, and Kenaniah the choir leader. David was also wearing a priestly garment.So all Israel brought up the Ark of the Lord’s Covenant with shouts of joy, the blowing of rams’ horns and trumpets, the crashing of cymbals, and loud playing on harps and lyres.But as the Ark of the Lord’s Covenant entered the City of David, Michal, the daughter of Saul, looked down from her window. When she saw King David skipping about and laughing with joy, she was filled with contempt for him.They brought the Ark of God and placed it inside the special tent David had prepared for it. And they presented burnt offerings and peace offerings to God.When he had finished his sacrifices, David blessed the people in the name of the Lord.Then he gave to every man and woman in all Israel a loaf of bread, a cake of dates, and a cake of raisins.

Solomon then summoned to Jerusalem the elders of Israel and all the heads of the tribes— the leaders of the ancestral families of the Israelites. They were to bring the Ark of the Lord’s Covenant to the Temple from its location in the City of David, also known as Zion.

We heard that the Ark was in Ephrathah; then we found it in the distant countryside of Jaar.Let us go to the sanctuary of the Lord; let us worship at the footstool of his throne.Arise, O Lord, and enter your resting place, along with the Ark, the symbol of your power.

Open up, ancient gates! Open up, ancient doors, and let the King of glory enter.Who is the King of glory? The Lord, strong and mighty; the Lord, invincible in battle.Open up, ancient gates! Open up, ancient doors, and let the King of glory enter.Who is the King of glory? The Lord of Heaven’s Armies— he is the King of glory. Interlude

The Lord has chosen them to carry the Ark of the Lord and to serve him forever.”Then David summoned all Israel to Jerusalem to bring the Ark of the Lord to the place he had prepared for it.

Your procession has come into view, O God— the procession of my God and King as he goes into the sanctuary.Singers are in front, musicians behind; between them are young women playing tambourines.Praise God, all you people of Israel; praise the Lord, the source of Israel’s life.Look, the little tribe of Benjamin leads the way. Then comes a great throng of rulers from Judah and all the rulers of Zebulun and Naphtali.
