At sinabi niya sa mga Levita na nagtuturo sa buong Israel, na mga banal para sa Walang-Hanggan: “Ilagay ninyo ang banal na kaban sa bahay na itinayo ni Solomon na anak ni David, na hari ng Israel. Wala na kayong pasaning dadalhin sa balikat. Ngayon, paglingkuran ninyo ang Walang-Hanggan na inyong Diyos at ang Kanyang bayang Israel.
