12 And they said to King David, The blessing of the Lord is on the family of Obed-edom and on all he has, because of the ark of God. And David went and took the ark of God from the house of Obed-edom into the town of David with joy.

13 And when those who were lifting the ark of the Lord had gone six steps, he made an offering of an ox and a fat young beast.

14 And David, clothed in a linen ephod, was dancing before the Lord with all his strength.

15 So David and all the men of Israel took up the ark of the Lord with cries of joy and sounding of horns.
