| 2 Samuel 6:1 |
|
Again, David gathered together all the chosen
men of Israel, thirty thousand. |
|
|
|
|
| 2 Samuel 6:2 |
|
And David arose, and went with all the people
that were with him from Baale of Judah, to bring up from thence the ark of God,
whose name is called by the name of the LORD of hosts that dwelleth between the
cherubims. |
| |
|
|
| 2 Samuel 6:3 |
|
And they set the ark of God upon a new cart,
and brought it out of the house of Abinadab that was in Gibeah: and Uzzah and
Ahio, the sons of Abinadab, drave the new cart. |
| |
|
|
| 2 Samuel 6:4 |
|
And they brought it out of the house of Abinadab
which was at Gibeah, accompanying the ark of God: and Ahio went before the ark. |
| |
|
|
| 2 Samuel 6:5 |
|
And David and all the house of Israel played
before the LORD on all manner of instruments made of fir wood, even on harps,
and on psalteries, and on timbrels, and on cornets, and on cymbals. |
| |
|
|
| 2 Samuel 6:6 |
|
And when they came to Nachon's threshingfloor,
Uzzah put forth his hand to the ark of God, and took hold of it; for the oxen
shook it. |
| |
|
|
| 2 Samuel 6:7 |
|
And the anger of the LORD was kindled against
Uzzah; and God smote him there for his error; and there he died by the ark of
God. |
|
|
|
| 2 Samuel 6:8 |
|
And David was displeased, because the LORD had
made a breach upon Uzzah: and he called the name of the place Perezuzzah to this
day. |
|
|
|
| 2 Samuel 6:9 |
|
And David was afraid of the LORD that day, and
said, How shall the ark of the LORD come to me? |
|
|
|
| 2 Samuel 6:10 |
|
So David would not remove the ark of the LORD
unto him into the city of David: but David carried it aside into the house of
Obededom the Gittite. |
|
|
|
| 2 Samuel 6:11 |
|
And the ark of the LORD continued in the house
of Obededom the Gittite three months: and the LORD blessed Obededom, and all his
household. |
|
|
|
| 2 Samuel 6:12 |
|
And it was told king David, saying, The LORD
hath blessed the house of Obededom, and all that pertaineth unto him, because
of the ark of God. So David went and brought up the ark of God from the house
of Obededom into the city of David with gladness. |
|
|
|
| 2 Samuel 6:13 |
|
And it was so, that when they that bare the
ark of the LORD had gone six paces, he sacrificed oxen and fatlings. |
|
|
|
| 2 Samuel 6:14 |
|
And David danced before the LORD with all his
might; and David was girded with a linen ephod. |
|
|
|
| 2 Samuel 6:15 |
|
So David and all the house of Israel brought
up the ark of the LORD with shouting, and with the sound of the trumpet. |
|
|
|
| 2 Samuel 6:16 |
|
And as the ark of the LORD came into the city
of David, Michal Saul's daughter looked through a window, and saw king David leaping
and dancing before the LORD; and she despised him in her heart. |
|
|
|
| 2 Samuel 6:17 |
|
And they brought in the ark of the LORD, and
set it in his place, in the midst of the tabernacle that David had pitched for
it: and David offered burnt offerings and peace offerings before the LORD. |
|
|
|
| 2 Samuel 6:18 |
|
And as soon as David had made an end of offering
burnt offerings and peace offerings, he blessed the people in the name of the
LORD of hosts. |
|
|
|
| 2 Samuel 6:19 |
|
And he dealt among all the people, even among
the whole multitude of Israel, as well to the women as men, to every one a cake
of bread, and a good piece of flesh, and a flagon of wine. So all the people departed
every one to his house. |
| |
|
|
| 2 Samuel 6:20 |
|
Then David returned to bless his household.
And Michal the daughter of Saul came out to meet David, and said, How glorious
was the king of Israel to day, who uncovered himself to day in the eyes of the
handmaids of his servants, as one of the vain fellows shamelessly uncovereth himself! |
| |
|
|
| 2 Samuel 6:21 |
|
And David said unto Michal, It was before the
LORD, which chose me before thy father, and before all his house, to appoint me
ruler over the people of the LORD, over Israel: therefore will I play before the
LORD. |
|
|
|
|
| 2 Samuel 6:22 |
|
And I will yet be more vile than thus, and will
be base in mine own sight: and of the maidservants which thou hast spoken of,
of them shall I be had in honour. |
|
|
|
|
| 2 Samuel 6:23 |
|
Therefore Michal the daughter of Saul had no
child unto the day of her death. |
