The Lord chose them to carry it and to serve him forever." 3 David told all the Israelites to meet together at Jerusalem to see the Lord 's Holy Box carried to the place he had made for it. 4 He called together these descendants of Aaron and the Levites: 5 There were 120 people from the tribe of Kohath.
