1 Chronicles 15:11 In-Context

9 From the families of Hebron came the leader Eliel and 80 relatives.

10 From the families of Uzziel came the leader Amminadab and 112 relatives.

11 David sent for the priests Zadok and Abiathar. He also sent for Uriel, Asaiah, Joel, Shemaiah, Eliel and Amminadab. They were Levites.

12 He said to them, "You are the leaders of the families of Levi. You and the other Levites must set yourselves apart to serve the LORD and his people. You must bring up the ark of the Lord. He is the God of Israel. Put the ark in the place I've prepared for it.

13 "Remember when the anger of the LORD our God broke out against us? It was because you Levites didn't bring the ark up the first time. We didn't ask the LORD how to do it in the way the law requires."
