1 When all of Solomon’s work on the Lord’s temple was finished, he brought the silver, gold, and all the objects his father David had dedicated and put them in the treasuries of God’s temple.
2 Then Solomon assembled Israel’s elders, all the tribal leaders, and the clan chieftains of Israel at Jerusalem to bring up the chest containing the Lord’s covenant from Zion, David’s City.
3 Everyone in Israel assembled before the king in the seventh month, during the festival.
4 When all Israel’s elders had arrived, the Levites picked up the chest.
