11 David appela les sacrificateurs Tsadok et Abiathar, et les Lévites Uriel, Asaja, Joël, Schemaeja, Éliel et Amminadab.

12 Il leur dit: Vous êtes les chefs de famille des Lévites; sanctifiez-vous, vous et vos frères, et faites monter à la place que je lui ai préparée l’arche de l’Éternel, du Dieu d’Israël.

13 Parce que vous n’y étiez pas la première fois, l’Éternel, notre Dieu, nous a frappés; car nous ne l’avons pas cherché selon la loi.

14 Les sacrificateurs et les Lévites se sanctifièrent pour faire monter l’arche de l’Éternel, du Dieu d’Israël.

15 Les fils des Lévites portèrent l’arche de Dieu sur leurs épaules avec des barres, comme Moïse l’avait ordonné d’après la parole de l’Éternel.
