1 David built houses for himself in the city of David. He made a place ready for the special box of God. And he set up a tent for it. 2 Then David said, "No one but the Levites may carry the special box of God.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
So the priests and the Levites sanctified themselves,.... As they were ordered, and in the manner they should:
to bring up the ark of the Lord God of Israel; for though it was chiefly the work of the Levites, yet the priests might do it, and sometimes did, see Joshua 3:13.
