The Ark Sent Back; David's Submission

2 Samuel 15:24-30
24
Zadok was also there, and all the Levites with him were carrying the ark of the covenant of God. And they set down the ark of God, and Abiathar offered sacrifices until the people had passed out of the city.
25
Then the king said to Zadok, “Return the ark of God to the city. If I find favor in the eyes of the LORD, He will bring me back and let me see both it and His dwelling place again.
26
But if He should say, ‘I do not delight in you,’ then here I am; let Him do to me whatever seems good to Him.”
27
The king also said to Zadok the priest, “Are you not a seer? Return to the city in peace—you with your son Ahimaaz, and Abiathar with his son Jonathan.
28
See, I will wait at the fords of the wilderness until word comes from you to inform me.”
29
So Zadok and Abiathar returned the ark of God to Jerusalem and stayed there.
30
But David continued up the Mount of Olives, weeping as he went up. His head was covered, and he was walking barefoot. And all the people with him covered their heads and went up, weeping as they went.
