1 Chronicles 13:6

David Fetches the Ark

5So David assembled all Israel, from the River Shihor in Egypt to Lebo-hamath, to bring the ark of God from Kiriath-jearim. 6David and all Israel went up to Baalah of Judah (that is, Kiriath-jearim) to bring up from there the ark of God the LORD, who is enthroned between the cherubim—the ark that is called by the Name.7So they carried the ark of God from the house of Abinadab on a new cart, with Uzzah and Ahio guiding the cart.
