Definitions for 2-samuel 6:12
Clarke's 2-samuel 6:12 Bible Commentary
So David - brought up the ark - The Vulgate adds to this verse: And David had seven choirs, and a calf for a sacrifice. The Septuagint make a greater addition: "And he had seven choirs carrying the ark, a sacrifice, a calf, and lambs. And David played on harmonious organs before the Lord; and David was clothed with a costly tunic; and David and all the house of Israel, brought the ark of the Lord with rejoicing, and the sound of a trumpet." Nothing of this is found in any MS., nor in the Chaldee, the Syriac, nor the Arabic, nor in the parallel place, 1 Chronicles 15:25.
Barnes's 2-samuel 6:12 Bible Commentary
With gladness - Especially with joyful music and song (1 Chronicles 15:16, etc.).
