International Children’s Bible

The Ark of the Covenant Is Carried into the Temple

² Then Solomon called for all the elders of Israel. He asked them to come to him in Jerusalem. He called for all the older leaders, the heads of the tribes and the leaders of the families. He wanted them to bring the Ark of the Covenant with the Lord from the older part of the city. ³ All the men of Israel came together with King Solomon. This was during the festival that was held in the seventh month.

⁴ All the elders of Israel arrived. Then the Levites picked up the Ark of the Covenant.
