David Brings the Ark to Jerusalem

1 David constructed buildings for himself in the City of David. Then he prepared a place for the ark of God. He set up a tent for it.
2 He said, "Only Levites can carry the ark of God. That's because the LORD chose them to carry his ark. He chose them to serve him forever in front of the place where his throne is."
3 David gathered the whole community of Israel together in Jerusalem. He wanted to bring the ark of the LORD up to the place he had prepared for it.
4 He called together the members of the family line of Aaron. He also called the Levites together. Here are the men who came from the families of the Levites.
5 From the families of Kohath came the leader Uriel and 120 relatives.
6 From the families of Merari came the leader Asaiah and 220 relatives.
7 From the families of Gershon came the leader Joel and 130 relatives.
