1 Kings 8

¹ At that time Solomon assembled before him in Jerusalem the elders of Israel—all the tribal heads and family leaders of the Israelites—to bring up the ark of the covenant of the LORD from Zion, the City of David.

² And all the men of Israel came together to King Solomon at the feast in the seventh month, the month of Ethanim.

³ When all the elders of Israel had arrived, the priests took up the ark,

⁴ and they brought up the ark of the LORD and the Tent of Meeting with all its sacred furnishings. So the priests and Levites carried them up.
