2 Samuel 6:12-19

New International Version

¹² Now King David^(A) was told, “The Lord has blessed the household of Obed-Edom and everything he has, because of the ark of God.” So David went to bring up the ark of God from the house of Obed-Edom to the City of David with rejoicing. ¹³ When those who were carrying the ark of the Lord had taken six steps, he sacrificed^(B) a bull and a fattened calf. ¹⁴ Wearing a linen ephod,^(C) David was dancing^(D) before the Lord with all his might, ¹⁵ while he and all Israel were bringing up the ark of the Lord with shouts^(E) and the sound of trumpets.^(F)

¹⁶ As the ark of the Lord was entering the City of David,^(G) Michal^(H) daughter of Saul watched from a window. And when she saw King David leaping and dancing before the Lord, she despised him in her heart.

¹⁷ They brought the ark of the Lord and set it in its place inside the tent that David had pitched for it,^(I) and David sacrificed burnt offerings^(J) and fellowship offerings before the Lord. ¹⁸ After he had finished sacrificing^(K) the burnt offerings and fellowship offerings, he blessed^(L) the people in the name of the Lord Almighty. ¹⁹ Then he gave a loaf of bread, a cake of dates and a cake of raisins^(M) to each person in the whole crowd of Israelites, both men and women.^(N) And all the people went to their homes.
