5 The priests and Levites carried the ark, the tent where God appeared to his people,[a] and all the holy items in the tent.[b] 6 Now King Solomon and all the Israelites who had assembled with him went on ahead of the ark and sacrificed more sheep and cattle than could be counted or numbered.[c]
7 The priests brought the ark of the covenant of the Lord to its assigned[d] place in the inner sanctuary of the temple, in the Most Holy Place under the wings of the cherubim.
