2 Samuel 6:15

So David and all the house of Israel brought up the ark of the Lord ,.... The elders of Israel, and the captains over thousands, 1 Chronicles 15:25 ; besides the common people; there might be as large a number with him now as before:

with shouting, and with the sound of the trumpet ; with the shouts of the people in common, and with blowing of trumpets by those who were appointed for that purpose, and with other instruments of music, see 1 Chronicles 15:27 ; Josephus says F18 Antiqu. l. 7. c. 4. sect. 2. , that seven choirs went before the priests bearing the ark, as the king commanded, he himself playing on the harp; so the Septuagint version.
