1 Kings 8:3-6

New International Version

³ When all the elders of Israel had arrived, the priests^(A) took up the ark, ⁴ and they brought up the ark of the Lord and the tent of meeting^(B) and all the sacred furnishings in it. The priests and Levites^(C) carried them up, ⁵ and King Solomon and the entire assembly of Israel that had gathered about him were before the ark, sacrificing^(D) so many sheep and cattle that they could not be recorded or counted.

⁶ The priests then brought the ark of the Lord’s covenant^(E) to its place in the inner sanctuary of the temple, the Most Holy Place,^(F) and put it beneath the wings of the cherubim.^(G)
