Then H227 David H1732 said, H559 None H3808 ought to carry H5375 the ark H727 of God H430 but the Levites: H3881 for them has the LORD H3068 chosen H977 to carry H5375 the ark H727 of God, H430 and to minister H8334 to him for ever. H5769

For because H3588 you did it not at the first, H7223 the LORD H3068 our God H430 made a breach H6555 on us, for that we sought H1875 him not after the due order. H4941

And when Aaron H175 and his sons H1121 have made an end H3615 of covering H3680 the sanctuary, H6944 and all H3605 the vessels H3627 of the sanctuary, H6944 as the camp H4264 is to set H5265 forward; H5265 after H310 that, the sons H1121 of Kohath H6955 shall come H935 to bear H5375 it: but they shall not touch H5060 any holy H6944 thing, lest they die. H4191 These H428 things are the burden H4853 of the sons H1121 of Kohath H6955 in the tabernacle H168 of the congregation. H4150

Now H6258 therefore make H6213 a new H2319 cart, H5699 and take H3947 two H8147 milk H5763 cows, H6510 on H5921 which H834 there has come H5927 no H3808 yoke, H5923 and tie H631 the cows H6510 to the cart, H5699 and bring H7725 their calves H1121 home H1004 from them:

And they set H7392 the ark H727 of God H430 on a new H2319 cart, H5699 and brought H5375 it out of the house H1004 of Abinadab H41 that was in Gibeah: H1390 and Uzzah H5798 and Ahio, H283 the sons H1121 of Abinadab, H41 drove H5090 the new H2319 cart. H5699

And the men H582 of Kirjathjearim H7157 came, H935 and fetched H5927 up the ark H727 of the LORD, H3068 and brought H935 it into H413 the house H1004 of Abinadab H41 in the hill, H1389 and sanctified H6942 Eleazar H499 his son H1121 to keep H8104 the ark H727 of the LORD. H3068

And it came H1961 to pass, while H3117 the ark H727 stayed H3427 in Kirjathjearim, H7157 that the time H3117 was long; H7235 for it was twenty H6242 years: H8141 and all H3605 the house H1004 of Israel H3478 lamented H5091 after H310 the LORD. H3068
