12 Now it was told King David, saying, “The Lord has blessed the house of Obed-Edom and all that belongs to him, because of the ark of God.” (A)So David went and brought up the ark of God from the house of Obed-Edom to the City of David with gladness. 13 And so it was, when (B)those bearing the ark of the Lord had gone six paces, that he sacrificed (C)oxen and fatted sheep. 14 Then David (D)danced[a] before the Lord with all his might; and David was wearing (E)a linen ephod. 15 (F)So David and all the house of Israel brought up the ark of the Lord with shouting and with the sound of the trumpet.
16 Now as the ark of the Lord came into the City of David, (G)Michal, Saul’s daughter, looked through a window and saw King David leaping and whirling before the Lord; and she despised him in her heart. 17 So (H)they brought the ark of the Lord, and set it in (I)its place in the midst of the tabernacle that David had erected for it. Then David (J)offered burnt offerings and peace offerings before the Lord.
