David again gathered together all the chosen men of Israel, thirty thousand. 1Ch 13:1-41Ch 13:6-141Ki 8:1Psa 132:1-62Sa 5:1 David arose and went with all the people who were with him from Baale Judah, to bring up from there God’s ark, which is called by the Name, even the name of the LORD of Armies who sits above the cherubim. 1Sa 4:41Ch 13:5-61Sa 7:1Exo 25:18-22Psa 80:11Pe 1:121Ki 8:6-7Isa 47:4 They set God’s ark on a new cart, and brought it out of Abinadab’s house that was on the hill; and Uzzah and Ahio, the sons of Abinadab, drove the new cart. 1Sa 6:7Num 7:4-9Num 4:5-12 They brought it out of Abinadab’s house which was in the hill, with God’s ark; and Ahio went before the ark. 1Ch 13:71Sa 7:1-2 David and all the house of Israel played before the LORD with all kinds of instruments made of cypress wood, with harps, with stringed instruments, with tambourines, with castanets, and with cymbals. 1Ch 13:8Psa 150:3-5Amo 5:231Ch 15:10-241Sa 10:51Sa 16:161Sa 18:6-72Ki 3:15
When they came to the threshing floor of Nacon, Uzzah reached for God’s ark and took hold of it, for the cattle stumbled. 1Ch 13:9Num 4:15Num 4:19-20 The LORD’s anger burned against Uzzah, and God struck him there for his error; and he died there by God’s ark. 1Sa 6:191Ch 15:131Ch 13:101Ch 15:21Co 11:30-32Lev 10:1-3 David was displeased because the LORD had broken out against Uzzah; and he called that place Perez Uzzah 1 to this day. 1Ch 13:11-12Jon 4:1Jon 4:9 David was afraid of the LORD that day; and he said, “How could the LORD’s ark come to me?” Psa 119:1201Ch 13:11-121Ki 8:271Sa 5:10-111Sa 6:20Num 17:12-13Isa 6:5Job 25:5-6 So David would not move the LORD’s ark to be with him in David’s city; but David carried it aside into Obed-Edom the Gittite’s house. 1Ch 26:4-81Ch 13:13-141Ch 15:181Ch 16:52Sa 15:192Sa 18:22Sa 4:3 The LORD’s ark remained in Obed-Edom the Gittite’s house three months; and the LORD blessed Obed-Edom and all his house. Gen 39:5Gen 30:27Pro 3:9-10Mal 3:10Gen 39:23 King David was told, “The LORD has blessed the house of Obed-Edom, and all that belongs to him, because of God’s ark.” 1Ch 15:251Ki 8:1Mat 10:42Psa 24:7-10Psa 68:24-271Ch 15:1-3Psa 132:6-8
So David went and brought up God’s ark from the house of Obed-Edom into David’s city with joy. When those who bore the LORD’s ark had gone six paces, he sacrificed an ox and a fattened calf. 1Ch 15:151Ki 8:5Num 4:151Ch 15:2Jos 3:3Num 7:91Ch 15:25-262Ch 5:6 David danced before the LORD with all his might; and David was clothed in a linen ephod. 1Sa 2:18Exo 15:20Jdg 11:34Psa 149:3Psa 150:41Sa 2:28Col 3:23Psa 30:11 So David and all the house of Israel brought up the LORD’s ark with shouting and with the sound of the trumpet. Psa 68:24-271Ch 15:161Ch 15:251Ch 15:28Ezr 3:10-11Jos 6:4-5Num 10:1-10Psa 150:3
As the LORD’s ark came into David’s city, Michal the daughter of Saul looked out through the window and saw King David leaping and dancing before the LORD; and she despised him in her heart. 1Co 2:141Ch 15:292Sa 3:14Act 2:13Psa 69:7Isa 53:3 They brought in the LORD’s ark, and set it in its place in the middle of the tent that David had pitched for it; and David offered burnt offerings and peace offerings before the LORD. 1Ch 15:12Ch 1:41Ki 8:51Ki 8:62-65Psa 132:82Ch 5:62Ch 7:5-7Ezr 6:16-17 When David had finished offering the burnt offering and the peace offerings, he blessed the people in the name of the LORD of Armies. 1Ch 16:21Ki 8:551Ki 8:142Ch 30:18-192Ch 30:272Ch 6:3Act 3:26Exo 39:43 He gave to all the people, even among the whole multitude of Israel, both to men and women, to everyone a portion of bread, dates, and raisins. So all the people departed, each to his own house. Neh 8:101Ki 8:662Ch 30:242Ch 7:101Ch 16:32Ch 35:12-132Ch 35:7-8Act 20:35
Then David returned to bless his household. Michal the daughter of Saul came out to meet David, and said, “How glorious the king of Israel was today, who uncovered himself today in the eyes of his servants’ maids, as one of the vain fellows shamelessly uncovers himself!” 2Sa 6:162Sa 6:14Jdg 9:4Mrk 3:21Php 2:7-81Ch 16:431Sa 19:23-242Sa 6:18
David said to Michal, “It was before the LORD, who chose me above your father, and above all his house, to appoint me prince over the people of the LORD, over Israel. Therefore I will celebrate before the LORD. Act 13:221Sa 13:142Sa 6:16Psa 89:19-201Sa 15:28Psa 78:70-721Sa 16:12Sa 6:14 I will be yet more undignified than this, and will be worthless in my own sight. But the maids of whom you have spoken will honor me.” 1Pe 4:14Heb 12:2Isa 51:71Ti 1:15Act 5:41-42Gen 32:10Isa 50:6Job 40:4
Michal the daughter of Saul had no child to the day of her death. Mat 1:251Sa 1:6-81Sa 15:35Hos 9:11Isa 22:14Isa 4:1Luk 1:25
