1 # Again, David <01732> gathered together <0622> (8799) (8676) <03254> (8686) all the chosen <0977> (8803) men of Israel <03478>, thirty <07970> thousand <0505>.
2 And David <01732> arose <06965> (8799), and went <03212> (8799) with all the people <05971> that were with him from Baale of Judah <01184>, to bring up <05927> (8687) from thence the ark <0727> of God <0430>, whose name <08034> is called <07121> (8738) by the name <08034> of the LORD <03068> of hosts <06635> that dwelleth <03427> (8802) between the cherubims <03742>.
3 And they set <07392> (8686) the ark <0727> of God <0430> upon a new <02319> cart <05699>, and brought <05375> (8799) it out of the house <01004> of Abinadab <041> that was in Gibeah <01390>: and Uzzah <05798> and Ahio <0283>, the sons <01121> of Abinadab <041>, drave <05090> (8802) the new <02319> cart <05699>.
4 And they brought <05375> (8799) it out of the house <01004> of Abinadab <041> which was at Gibeah <01390> , accompanying <05973> the ark <0727> of God <0430>: and Ahio <0283> went <01980> (8802) before <06440> the ark <0727>.
5 And David <01732> and all the house <01004> of Israel <03478> played <07832> (8764) before <06440> the LORD <03068> on all manner of instruments made of fir <01265> wood <06086>, even on harps <03658>, and on psalteries <05035> , and on timbrels <08596>, and on cornets <04517>, and on cymbals <06767>.
6 # And when they came <0935> (8799) to Nachon's <05225> threshingfloor <01637>, Uzzah <05798> put forth <07971> (8799) his hand to the ark <0727> of God <0430>, and took hold <0270> (8799) of it; for the oxen <01241> shook <08058> (8804) it.
7 And the anger <0639> of the LORD <03068> was kindled <02734> (8799) against Uzzah <05798>; and God <0430> smote <05221> (8686) him there for his error <07944>; and there he died <04191> (8799) by the ark <0727> of God <0430>.
8 And David <01732> was displeased <02734> (8799), because the LORD <03068> had made <06555> (8804) a breach <06556> upon Uzzah <05798>: and he called <07121> (8799) the name of the place <04725> Perezuzzah <06560> to this day <03117>.
9 And David <01732> was afraid <03372> (8799) of the LORD <03068> that day <03117>, and said <0559> (8799), How shall the ark <0727> of the LORD <03068> come <0935> (8799) to me?
10 So David <01732> would <014> (8804) not remove <05493> (8687) the ark <0727> of the LORD <03068> unto him into the city <05892> of David <01732>: but David <01732> carried it aside <05186> (8686) into the house <01004> of Obededom <05654> the Gittite <01663>.
11 And the ark <0727> of the LORD <03068> continued <03427> (8799) in the house <01004> of Obededom <05654> the Gittite <01663> three <07969> months <02320>: and the LORD <03068> blessed <01288> (8762) Obededom <05654> , and all his household <01004>.
12 # And it was told <05046> (8714) king <04428> David <01732>, saying <0559> (8800), The LORD <03068> hath blessed <01288> (8765) the house <01004> of Obededom <05654>, and all that pertaineth unto him, because of the ark <0727> of God <0430>. So David <01732> went <03212> (8799) and brought up <05927> (8686) the ark <0727> of God <0430> from the house <01004> of Obededom <05654> into the city <05892> of David <01732> with gladness <08057>.
13 And it was so, that when they that bare <05375> (8802) the ark <0727> of the LORD <03068> had gone <06805> (8804) six <08337> paces <06806>, he sacrificed <02076> (8799) oxen <07794> and fatlings <04806>.
14 And David <01732> danced <03769> (8772) before <06440> the LORD <03068> with all his might <05797> ; and David <01732> was girded <02296> (8803) with a linen <0906> ephod <0646>.
15 So David <01732> and all the house <01004> of Israel <03478> brought up <05927> (8688) the ark <0727> of the LORD <03068> with shouting <08643>, and with the sound <06963> of the trumpet <07782>.
16 And as the ark <0727> of the LORD <03068> came <0935> (8802) into the city <05892> of David <01732> , Michal <04324> Saul's <07586> daughter <01323> looked <08259> (8738) through a window <02474>, and saw <07200> (8799) king <04428> David <01732> leaping <06339> (8764) and dancing <03769> (8772) before <06440> the LORD <03068>; and she despised <0959> (8799) him in her heart <03820>.
17 And they brought <0935> (8686) in the ark <0727> of the LORD <03068>, and set <03322> (8686) it in his place <04725>, in the midst <08432> of the tabernacle <0168> that David <01732> had pitched <05186> (8804) for it: and David <01732> offered <05927> (8686) burnt offerings <05930> and peace offerings <08002> before <06440> the LORD <03068> .
18 And as soon as David <01732> had made an end <03615> (8762) of offering <05927> (8687) burnt offerings <05930> and peace offerings <08002>, he blessed <01288> (8762) the people <05971> in the name <08034> of the LORD <03068> of hosts <06635>.
19 And he dealt <02505> (8762) among all the people <05971>, even among the whole multitude <01995> of Israel <03478>, as well to the women <0802> as men <0376>, to every one <0376> a <0259> cake <02471> of bread <03899>, and a good piece <0829> of flesh, and a flagon <0809> of wine. So all the people <05971> departed <03212> (8799) every one <0376> to his house <01004>.
20 # Then David <01732> returned <07725> (8799) to bless <01288> (8763) his household <01004>. And Michal <04324> the daughter <01323> of Saul <07586> came out <03318> (8799) to meet <07125> (8800) David <01732> , and said <0559> (8799), How glorious <03513> (8738) was the king <04428> of Israel <03478> to day <03117> , who uncovered <01540> (8738) himself to day <03117> in the eyes <05869> of the handmaids <0519> of his servants <05650>, as one <0259> of the vain fellows <07386> shamelessly <01540> (8736) uncovereth <01540> (8736) himself!
21 And David <01732> said <0559> (8799) unto Michal <04324>, It was before <06440> the LORD <03068> , which chose <0977> (8804) me before thy father <01>, and before all his house <01004>, to appoint <06680> (8763) me ruler <05057> over the people <05971> of the LORD <03068>, over Israel <03478>: therefore will I play <07832> (8765) before <06440> the LORD <03068>.
22 And I will yet be more vile <07043> (8738) than thus <02063>, and will be base <08217> in mine own sight <05869> : and of the maidservants <0519> which thou hast spoken <0559> (8804) of, of them shall I be had in honour <03513> (8735).
23 Therefore Michal <04324> the daughter <01323> of Saul <07586> had no child <02056> (8675) <03206> unto the day <03117> of her death <04194>.
