And Solomon reigned over all the kingdoms from the Euphrates River to the land of the Philistines, and to the border of Egypt. They brought presents and served Solomon all the days of his life.
And at that time Solomon made a feast, and all Israel with him, a great congregation, from the entering in of Hamath to the torrent of Egypt, before Jehovah our God, seven days and seven days, fourteen days.
And David and all Israel went up to Baalah, to Kirjath-jearim of Judah, to bring up from there the ark of Jehovah God, who dwells among the cherubs, there on which the Name was called.
And now what is for you toward the way of Egypt, to drink the waters of Sihor? Or what for you toward Assyria, to drink the waters of the Euphrates River?
And the sons of Israel pulled up stakes and came to their cities on the third day. And their cities were Gibeon, and Chephirah, and Beeroth, and Kirjathjearim.
And they sent messengers to the ones living in Kirjath-jearim, saying, The Philistines have sent back the ark of Jehovah. Come down: take it up to you.
And the men of Kirjath-jearim came and brought up the ark of Jehovah, and brought it to the house of Abinadab, in the hill. And they sanctified his son Eleazar to keep the ark of Jehovah.
And it happened from the day the ark began to dwell in Kirjath-jearim, the days became many; yea, they were twenty years. And all the house of Israel lamented after Jehovah.
