So David and all the people of Israel brought up the Ark of the LORD with shouts of joy and the blowing of rams’ horns.

When she saw King David leaping and dancing before the LORD, she was filled with contempt for him.

They brought the Ark of the LORD and set it in its place inside the special tent David had prepared for it. And David sacrificed burnt offerings and peace offerings to the LORD.

When he had finished his sacrifices, David blessed the people in the name of the LORD of Heaven’s Armies.
