26 And|strong="H3068" it|strong="H5375" came|strong="H1961" to|strong="H3068" pass|strong="H1961", when|strong="H1961" God|strong="H3068" helped|strong="H5826" the|strong="H5375" Levites|strong="H3881" that|strong="H3068" bare|strong="H5375" the|strong="H5375" ark of|strong="H3068" the|strong="H5375" covenant|strong="H1285" of|strong="H3068" the|strong="H5375" LORD|strong="H3068", that|strong="H3068" they|strong="H3068" sacrificed|strong="H2076" seven|strong="H7651" bullocks|strong="H6499" and|strong="H3068" seven|strong="H7651" rams.
27 And|strong="H1732" David|strong="H1732" was|strong="H1732" clothed|strong="H3736" with|strong="H5921" a|strong="H3068" robe|strong="H4598" of|strong="H8269" fine linen, and|strong="H1732" all|strong="H3605" the|strong="H3605" Levites|strong="H3881" that|strong="H3605" bare|strong="H5375" the|strong="H3605" ark, and|strong="H1732" the|strong="H3605" singers|strong="H7891", and|strong="H1732" Chenaniah|strong="H3663" the|strong="H3605" master|strong="H8269" of|strong="H8269" the|strong="H3605" song|strong="H4853" with the|strong="H3605" singers|strong="H7891": and|strong="H1732" David|strong="H1732" had|strong="H1732" upon|strong="H5921" him|strong="H5921" an|strong="H5375" ephod of|strong="H8269" linen.
