The middle of the chapter continues: And the children of the Levites bare the ark of God upon their shoulders with the staves thereon, as Moses commanded according to the word of YHWH. It closes: And it came to pass, the ark of the covenant of YHWH came to the city of David, that Michal the daughter of Saul looking out at a window saw king David dancing and playing: and she despised him in her heart.
