¹² and went up and encamped at Kiriath-jearim in Judah. On this account that place is called ^(A)Mahaneh-dan^[a] to this day; behold, it is west of ^(B)Kiriath-jearim.

^25 (A)And the Spirit of the Lord began to stir him in Mahaneh-dan, between ^(B)Zorah and Eshtaol.

^60 (A)Kiriath-baal (that is, Kiriath-jearim), and Rabbah: two cities with their villages.

^4 (A)(But David had brought up the ark of God from Kiriath-jearim to the place that David had prepared for it, for he had pitched a tent for it in Jerusalem.)

Uzzah and the Ark

^5 (A)So David assembled all Israel ^(B)from the ^(C)Nile^[a] of Egypt to Lebo-hamath, to bring the ark of God ^(D)from Kiriath-jearim. ^6 (E)And David and all Israel went up to ^(F)Baalah, that is, to Kiriath-jearim that belongs to Judah, to bring up from there the ark of God, which is called by the name of the Lord who ^(G)sits enthroned above the cherubim.

7 And the men of Kiriath-jearim came and took up the ark of the Lord and brought it to the house of ^(A)Abinadab on the hill. And they consecrated his son Eleazar to have charge of the ark of the Lord.
