1 Chronicles 15:1-11

1 Chronicles 15:1-11 NCV

David built houses for himself in Jerusalem. Then he prepared a place for the Ark of God, and he set up a tent for it. David said, “Only the Levites may carry the Ark of God. The LORD chose them to carry the Ark of the LORD and to serve him forever.” David called all the people of Israel to come to Jerusalem. He wanted to bring the Ark of the LORD to the place he had made for it. David called together the descendants of Aaron and the Levites. There were one hundred twenty people from Kohath’s family group, with Uriel as their leader. There were two hundred twenty people from Merari’s family group, with Asaiah as their leader. There were one hundred thirty people from Gershon’s family group, with Joel as their leader. There were two hundred people from Elizaphan’s family group, with Shemaiah as their leader. There were eighty people from Hebron’s family group, with Eliel as their leader. And there were one hundred twelve people from Uzziel’s family group, with Amminadab as their leader. Then David asked the priests Zadok and Abiathar and these Levites to come to him: Uriel, Asaiah, Joel, Shemaiah, Eliel, and Amminadab.
