1 Chronicles 13:1

1David consulted with the captains of thousands and of hundreds, even with every leader.

2David said to all the assembly of Israel, “If it seems good to you, and if it is of the LORD our God, let’s send word everywhere to our brothers who are left in all the land of Israel, with whom the priests and Levites are in their cities that have pasture lands, that they may gather themselves to us.

3Also, let’s bring the ark of our God back to us again, for we didn’t seek it in the days of Saul.”
