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