2 Chronicles 5:2-4

New Living Translation

The Ark Brought to the Temple

² Solomon then summoned to Jerusalem the elders of Israel and all the heads of tribes—the leaders of the ancestral families of Israel. They were to bring the Ark of the Lord’s Covenant to the Temple from its location in the City of David, also known as Zion. ³ So all the men of Israel assembled before the king at the annual Festival of Shelters, which is held in early autumn.^[a]

⁴ When all the elders of Israel arrived, the Levites picked up the Ark.
