1 Chronicles 15:9-14 Amplified Bible (AMP)

9. Of the sons of Hebron, Eliel the chief, with 80 kinsmen;

10. Of the sons of Uzziel, Amminadab the chief, with 112 kinsmen.

11. And David called for Zadok and Abiathar the priests, and for the Levites–Uriel, Asaiah, Joel, Shemaiah, Eliel, and Amminadab,

12. And said to them, You are the heads of the fathers' houses of the Levites; sanctify yourselves, both you and your brethren, that you may bring up the ark of the Lord, the God of Israel, to the place that I have prepared for it.

13. For because you bore it not [as God directed] at the first, the Lord our God broke forth upon us–because we did not seek Him in the way He ordained. [Num. 1:50; I Chron. 13:7-10.]

14. So the priests and the Levites sanctified themselves to bring up the ark of the Lord, the God of Israel.
