1. Thus all the work that Solomon did for the Lord’s house was finished. Solomon brought in the things that David his father had dedicated, even the silver, the gold, and all the vessels, and put them in the treasuries of God’s house.
2. Then Solomon assembled the elders of Israel, and all the heads of the tribes, the princes of the fathers’ households of the children of Israel, to Jerusalem, to bring up the ark of the Lord’s covenant out of David’s city, which is Zion.
3. So all the men of Israel assembled themselves to the king at the feast, which was in the seventh month.
4. All the elders of Israel came. The Levites took up the ark;
5. and they brought up the ark, the Tent of Meeting, and all the holy vessels that were in the Tent; these the priests the Levites brought up.
