[10] So David would not remove the ark of the LORD unto him into the city of David: carried it aside into the house of Obededom the Gittite. [11] And the ark of the LORD continued in the house of Obededom the Gittite three months: and the LORD blessed Obededom, and all his household. [12] And it was told king David, saying, The LORD hath blessed the house of Obededom, and all that pertaineth unto him, because of the ark of God. So David and brought up the ark of God from the house of Obededom into the city of David with gladness.
