So David went and brought it up from Obed-Edom's house to Jerusalem with joy. 13 When the men carrying the Ark of the Lord had walked six steps, David sacrificed a bull and a fat calf. 14 Then David danced with all his might before the Lord . He had on a holy linen vest. 15 David and all the Israelites shouted with joy and blew the trumpets as they brought the Ark of the Lord to the city. 16 As the Ark of the Lord came into the city, Saul's daughter Michal looked out the window. When she saw David jumping and dancing in the presence of the Lord , she hated him. 17 David put up a tent for the Ark of the Lord , and then the Israelites put it in its place inside the tent. David offered whole burnt offerings and fellowship offerings before the Lord . 18 When David finished offering the whole burnt offerings and the fellowship offerings, he blessed the people in the name of the Lord All-Powerful. 19 David gave a loaf of bread, a cake of dates, and a cake of raisins to every Israelite, both men and women. Then all the people went home.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And as soon as David had made an end of offering burnt offerings and peace offerings,.... Or these were performed according to his order:
he blessed the people in the name of the Lord of hosts; not as a priest, but as a prince, as the common father of them, wishing them all happiness and prosperity outward and inward, praying to God to bless them with all blessings temporal and spiritual, who is the God of armies above and below, and can do what he pleases, and more than his people can ask or think.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
He blessed the people - So did Solomon 1 Kings 8:14.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 2 Samuel 6:18. He blessed the people in the name of the Lord — David acted here as priest, for it was the general prerogative of the priests to bless the people, but it appears, by both David and Solomon, that it was the prerogative of the kings also.
