&nbsp;2 Samuel 5:7[[Jerusalem]][[Zion]][[Ebla]] <p> David moved the ark of the covenant into the city of David (&nbsp;2 Samuel 6:12 ) and built houses in the city, including a place for the ark (&nbsp;1 Chronicles 15:1 ).

At that time he moved the ark of the covenant from the city of David to the new Temple (&nbsp;1 Kings 8:1 ) and moved his wife to the new palace (&nbsp;1 Kings 9:24 ).
