1 Chronicles 15:1

¹  And David made him houses in the city of David, and prepared a place for the ark of God, and pitched for it a tent.

²  Then David said, None ought to carry the ark of God but the Levites: for them hath the LORD chosen to carry the ark of God, and to minister unto him for ever.

³  And David gathered all Israel together to Jerusalem, to bring up the ark of the LORD unto his place, which he had prepared for it.
