Complete Jewish Bible

² Then David said to the entire assembly of Isra’el, “If it seems good to you, and if it is the will of Adonai our God, let’s send messengers to the rest of our kinsmen in the land of Isra’el, and also to the cohanim and L’vi’im in their cities with surrounding open land, asking them to join us; ³ and let’s bring back the ark of our God to ourselves, since we didn’t go after it when Sha’ul was king.” ⁴ The whole assembly said they would do this, for in the view of all the people it seemed right.
