2 Samuel 6:15-17
New English Translation

15 David and all Israel[a] were bringing up the ark of the Lord, shouting and blowing trumpets.[b]

16 As the ark of the Lord entered the City of David, Saul’s daughter Michal looked out the window. When she saw King David leaping and dancing before the Lord, she despised him.[c] 17 They brought the ark of the Lord and put it in its place[d] in the middle of the tent that David had pitched for it. Then David offered burnt sacrifices and peace offerings before the Lord.
