So Dovid went and brought up the Aron HaElohim from the bais Oved-Edom into Ir Dovid with simchah.13And it was so, that when they that nosei Aron Hashem (carried the Aron HaShem) had gone six steps, he sacrificed ox and fattened calf.14And Dovid danced before Hashem with kol oz; and Dovid was girded with an ephod bad (linen ephod) .15So Dovid and kol Bais Yisroel brought up the Aron Hashem with ter'uah (shout) and with the sound of the shofar.16And as the Aron Hashem came into Ir Dovid, Michal Bat Sha'ul looked through a chalon (window) , and saw Dovid HaMelech leaping and dancing before Hashem ; and she despised him in her lev.17And they brought in the Aron Hashem , and set it in its makom, inside the ohel that Dovid had pitched for it; and Dovid offered olot (burnt offerings) and shelamim (peace offerings) before Hashem .18And as soon as Dovid had made an end of offering the olah (burnt offering) and the shelamim (peace offering) , he made brocha on HaAm b'Shem Hashem Tzva'os.19And he apportioned among kol HaAm, even among kol hamon Yisroel, to isha as well as ish, to every one challat, lechem, a portion of meat, and a raisin cake. So kol HaAm departed, each to his bais.20Then Dovid returned to make brocha on his bais. And Michal Bat Sha'ul came out to meet Dovid, and said, How distinquished was the Melech Yisroel today, who disrobed today in the eyes of the amehot (handmaids) of his avadim, as one of the rekim (vain, empty fellows, indecent boors) shamelessly uncovereth himself!21And Dovid said unto Michal, It was before Hashem , which chose me rather than thy av, and rather than all his bais, to appoint me Nagid over Am Hashem , over Yisroel: therefore will I rejoice before Hashem .22And I will yet be more undignified than this, and will be shafal (lowly) in mine own eyes; and of the amahot (maidservants) which thou hast spoken of, of them shall I be held in honor.23Therefore Michal Bat Sha'ul had no yeled unto her yom mot.Shmuel Bais 5Shmuel Bais 7
