1599 Geneva Bible
23 And all the country wept with a loud voice, and [a]all the people went forward, but the King passed over the brook Kidron: and all the people went over toward the way of the wilderness.
24 ¶ And lo, Zadok also was there, and all the Levites with him, [b]bearing the Ark of the covenant of God: and they set down the Ark of God: and Abiathar went [c]up until the people were all come out of the city.
25 Then the King said unto Zadok, Carry the Ark of God again into the city: if I shall find favor in the eyes of the Lord, he will bring me again, and show me both it, and the [d]Tabernacle thereof.

New International Version
23 The whole countryside wept aloud(A) as all the people passed by. The king also crossed the Kidron Valley,(B) and all the people moved on toward the wilderness.
24 Zadok(C) was there, too, and all the Levites who were with him were carrying the ark(D) of the covenant of God. They set down the ark of God, and Abiathar(E) offered sacrifices until all the people had finished leaving the city.
25 Then the king said to Zadok, “Take the ark of God back into the city. If I find favor in the Lord’s eyes, he will bring me back and let me see it and his dwelling place(F) again.
