12 And it was told King David, “The Lord has blessed the household of Obed-edom and all that belongs to him, because of the ark of God.” ^aSo David went and brought up the ark of God from the house of Obed-edom ^bto the city of David with rejoicing. 13 And when ^cthose who bore the ark of the Lord had gone six steps, ^dhe sacrificed an ox and a fattened animal. 14 And David ^edanced before the Lord with all his might. And David was ^fwearing a linen ephod. 15 So David and all the house of Israel brought up the ark of the Lord with shouting and with the sound of the horn.

16 As the ark of the Lord came into the city of David, Michal the daughter of Saul looked out of the window and saw King David leaping and dancing before the Lord, and she despised him in her heart. 17 And they brought in the ark of the Lord and set it ^gin its place, inside the tent that David had pitched for it. ^hAnd David offered burnt offerings and peace offerings before the Lord.
