1 Chronicles 13:2-4

Easy-to-Read Version

² Then he called the Israelites together and said, “If you think it is a good idea, and if it is what the Lord our God wants, let us send a message to our brothers in all the areas of Israel. Let’s also send the message to the priests and Levites who live with our brothers in their towns and the fields near those towns. Let the message tell them to come and join us. ³ Let’s bring our God’s Holy Box back to us in Jerusalem. We did not pay attention to it while Saul was king.” ⁴ So all the Israelites agreed with David. They all thought it was the right thing to do.
