Lexham English Bible

¹² And he said to them, “You are the heads of the families^[a] for the Levites. Sanctify yourselves and your brothers and bring up the ark of Yahweh, the God of Israel, to the place I have established for it. ¹³ Because the first time you did not, and Yahweh our God burst out against us, for we did not care for it according to the law.” ¹⁴ Then the priests and the Levites sanctified themselves to bring up the ark of Yahweh, the God of Israel.
