وَعَمِلَ دَاوُدُ لِنَفْسِهِ بُيُوتًا فِي مَدِينَةِ دَاوُدَ، وَأَعَدَّ مَكَانًا لِتَابُوتِ ٱللهِ وَنَصَبَ لَهُ خَيْمَةً. ١ 1
David made him houses in the City of David; and he prepared a place for the ark of God, and pitched for it a tent.
حِينَئِذٍ قَالَ دَاوُدُ: «لَيْسَ لِأَحَدٍ أَنْ يَحْمِلَ تَابُوتَ ٱللهِ إِلَّا لِلَّاوِيِّينَ، لِأَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ إِنَّمَا ٱخْتَارَهُمْ لِحَمْلِ تَابُوتِ ٱللهِ وَلِخِدْمَتِهِ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ». ٢ 2
Then David said, "No one ought to carry the ark of God but the Levites. For the LORD has chosen them to carry the ark of God, and to minister to him forever."
وَجَمَعَ دَاوُدُ كُلَّ إِسْرَائِيلَ إِلَى أُورُشَلِيمَ لِأَجْلِ إِصْعَادِ تَابُوتِ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَى مَكَانِهِ ٱلَّذِي أَعَدَّهُ لَهُ. ٣ 3
David assembled all Israel at Jerusalem, to bring up the ark of the LORD to its place, which he had prepared for it.
فَجَمَعَ دَاوُدُ بَنِي هَارُونَ وَٱللَّاوِيِّينَ. ٤ 4
David gathered together the sons of Aaron, and the Levites:
مِنْ بَنِي قَهَاتَ: أُورِيئِيلَ ٱلرَّئِيسَ، وَإِخْوَتَهُ مِئَةً وَعِشْرِينَ. ٥ 5
of the sons of Kohath, Uriel the chief, and his brothers one hundred twenty;
مِنْ بَنِي مَرَارِي: عَسَايَا ٱلرَّئِيسَ، وَإِخْوَتَهُ مِئَتَيْنِ وَعِشْرِينَ. ٦ 6
of the sons of Merari, Asaiah the chief, and his brothers two hundred twenty;
مِنْ بَنِي جَرْشُومَ: يُوئِيلَ ٱلرَّئِيسَ، وَإِخْوَتَهُ مِئَةً وَثَلَاثِينَ. ٧ 7
of the sons of Gershom, Joel the chief, and his brothers one hundred thirty;
مِنْ بَنِي أَلِيصَافَانَ: شَمَعْيَا ٱلرَّئِيسَ، وَإِخْوَتَهُ مِئَتَيْنِ. ٨ 8
of the sons of Elizaphan, Shemaiah the chief, and his brothers two hundred;
مِنْ بَنِي حَبْرُونَ: إِيلِيئِيلَ ٱلرَّئِيسَ، وَإِخْوَتَهُ ثَمَانِينَ. ٩ 9
of the sons of Hebron, Eliel the chief, and his brothers eighty;
مِنْ بَنِي عُزِّيئِيلَ: عَمِّينَادَابَ، ٱلرَّئِيسَ، وَإِخْوَتَهُ مِئَةً وَٱثْنَيْ عَشَرَ. ١٠ 10
of the sons of Uzziel, Amminadab the chief, and his brothers one hundred twelve.
وَدَعَا دَاوُدُ صَادُوقَ وَأَبِيَاثَارَ ٱلْكَاهِنَيْنِ وَٱللَّاوِيِّينَ: أُورِيئِيلَ وَعَسَايَا وَيُوئِيلَ وَشَمَعْيَا وَإِيلِيئِيلَ وَعَمِّينَادَابَ، ١١ 11
David called for Zadok and Abiathar the priests, and for the Levites, for Uriel, Asaiah, and Joel, Shemaiah, and Eliel, and Amminadab,
وَقَالَ لَهُمْ: «أَنْتُمْ رُؤُوسُ آبَاءِ ٱللَّاوِيِّينَ، فَتَقَدَّسُوا أَنْتُمْ وَإِخْوَتُكُمْ وَأَصْعِدُوا تَابُوتَ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِ إِسْرَائِيلَ إِلَى حَيْثُ أَعْدَدْتُ لَهُ. ١٢ 12
and said to them, "You are the heads of the ancestral houses of the Levites. Sanctify yourselves, both you and your brothers, that you may bring up the ark of the LORD, the God of Israel, to the place that I have prepared for it.
لِأَنَّهُ إِذْ لَمْ تَكُونُوا فِي ٱلْمَرَّةِ ٱلْأُولَى، ٱقْتَحَمَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُنَا، لِأَنَّنَا لَمْ نَسْأَلْهُ حَسَبَ ٱلْمَرْسُومِ». ١٣ 13
For because you were not prepared the first time, the LORD our God made an outbreak against us, because we did not seek him according to the ordinance."
فَتَقَدَّسَ ٱلْكَهَنَةُ وَٱللَّاوِيُّونَ لِيُصْعِدُوا تَابُوتَ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِ إِسْرَائِيلَ. ١٤ 14
So the priests and the Levites sanctified themselves to bring up the ark of the LORD, the God of Israel.
وَحَمَلَ بَنُو ٱللَّاوِيِّينَ تَابُوتَ ٱللهِ كَمَا أَمَرَ مُوسَى حَسَبَ كَلَامِ ٱلرَّبِّ بِٱلْعِصِيِّ عَلَى أَكْتَافِهِمْ. ١٥ 15
The descendants of the Levites bore the ark of God on their shoulders with the poles thereon, as Moses commanded according to the word of the LORD.
وَأَمَرَ دَاوُدُ رُؤَسَاءَ ٱللَّاوِيِّينَ أَنْ يُوقِفُوا إِخْوَتَهُمُ ٱلْمُغَنِّينَ بِآلَاتِ غِنَاءٍ، بِعِيدَانٍ وَرَبَابٍ وَصُنُوجٍ، مُسَمِّعِينَ بِرَفْعِ ٱلصَّوْتِ بِفَرَحٍ. ١٦ 16
David spoke to the chief of the Levites to appoint their brothers the singers, with instruments of music, stringed instruments and harps and cymbals, sounding aloud and lifting up the voice with joy.
فَأَوْقَفَ ٱللَّاوِيُّونَ هَيْمَانَ بْنَ يُوئِيلَ، وَمِنْ إِخْوَتِهِ آسَافَ بْنَ بَرَخْيَا، وَمِنْ بَنِي مَرَارِي إِخْوَتِهِمْ إِيثَانَ بْنَ قُوشِيَّا، ١٧ 17
So the Levites appointed Heman the son of Joel; and of his brothers, Asaph the son of Berechiah; and of the sons of Merari their brothers, Ethan the son of Kushaiah;
وَمَعَهُمْ إِخْوَتَهُمْ ٱلثَّوَانِيَ: زَكَرِيَّا وَبَيْنَ وَيَعْزِئِيلَ وَشَمِيرَامُوثَ وَيَحِيئِيلَ وَعُنِّيَ وَأَلِيآبَ وَبَنَايَا وَمَعَسْيَا وَمَتَّثْيَا وَأَلِيفَلْيَا وَمَقَنْيَا وَعُوبِيدَ أَدُومَ وَيَعِيئِيلَ ٱلْبَوَّابِينَ. ١٨ 18
and with them their brothers of the second degree, Zechariah, and Jaaziel, and Shemiramoth, and Jehiel, and Unni, Eliab, and Benaiah, and Maaseiah, and Mattithiah, and Eliphelehu, and Mikneiah, and Obed-Edom, and Jeiel, and Azaziah were doorkeepers.
وَٱلْمُغَنُّونَ: هَيْمَانُ وَآسَافُ وَإِيثَانُ بِصُنُوجِ نُحَاسٍ لِلتَّسْمِيعِ. ١٩ 19
So the singers, Heman, Asaph, and Ethan, were given cymbals of bronze to sound aloud;
وَزَكَرِيَّا وَعُزِّيئِيلُ وَشَمِيرَامُوثُ وَيَحِيئِيلُ وَعُنِّي وَأَلِيَابُ وَمَعَسْيَا وَبَنَايَا بِٱلرَّبَابِ عَلَى ٱلْجَوَابِ. ٢٠ 20
and Zechariah, and Jaaziel, and Shemiramoth, and Jehiel, and Unni, and Eliab, and Maaseiah, and Benaiah, with stringed instruments set to Alamoth;
وَمَتَّثْيَا وَأَلِيفَلْيَا وَمَقَنْيَا وَعُوبِيدُ أَدُومَ وَيَعِيئِيلُ وَعَزَزْيَا بِٱلْعِيدَانِ عَلَى ٱلْقَرَارِ لِلْإِمَامَةِ. ٢١ 21
and Mattithiah, and Eliphelehu, and Mikneiah, and Obed-Edom, and Jeiel, and Azaziah, with harps tuned to the eight-stringed lyre, to lead.
وَكَنَنْيَا رَئِيسُ ٱللَّاوِيِّينَ عَلَى ٱلْحَمْلِ مُرْشِدًا فِي ٱلْحَمْلِ لِأَنَّهُ كَانَ خَبِيرًا. ٢٢ 22
Chenaniah, chief of the Levites, was over the song: he instructed about the song, because he was skillful.
وَبَرَخْيَا وَأَلْقَانَةُ بَوَّابَانِ لِلتَّابُوتِ. ٢٣ 23
Berechiah and Elkanah were doorkeepers for the ark.
وَشَبَنْيَا وَيُوشَافَاطُ وَنَثْنَئِيلُ وَعَمَاسَايُ وَزَكَرِيَّا وَبَنَايَا وَأَلِيعَزَرُ ٱلْكَهَنَةُ يَنْفُخُونَ بِٱلْأَبْوَاقِ أَمَامَ تَابُوتِ ٱللهِ، وَعُوبِيدُ أَدُومَ وَيَحِيَّى بَوَّابَانِ لِلتَّابُوتِ. ٢٤ 24
Shebaniah, and Joshaphat, and Nethanel, and Amasai, and Zechariah, and Benaiah, and Eliezer, the priests, blew the trumpets before the ark of God: and Obed-Edom and Jehiah were doorkeepers for the ark.
وَكَانَ دَاوُدُ وَشُيُوخُ إِسْرَائِيلَ وَرُؤَسَاءُ ٱلْأُلُوفِ هُمُ ٱلَّذِينَ ذَهَبُوا لِإِصْعَادِ تَابُوتِ عَهْدِ ٱلرَّبِّ، مِنْ بَيْتِ عُوبِيدَ أَدُومَ بِفَرَحٍ. ٢٥ 25
So David, and the elders of Israel, and the captains over thousands, went to bring up the ark of the covenant of the LORD out of the house of Obed-Edom with joy.
وَلَمَّا أَعَانَ ٱللهُ ٱللَّاوِيِّينَ حَامِلِي تَابُوتِ عَهْدِ ٱلرَّبِّ، ذَبَحُوا سَبْعَةَ عُجُولٍ وَسَبْعَةَ كِبَاشٍ. ٢٦ 26
It happened, when God helped the Levites who bore the ark of the covenant of the LORD, that they sacrificed seven bulls and seven rams.
وَكَانَ دَاوُدُ لَابِسًا جُبَّةً مِنْ كَتَّانٍ، وَجَمِيعُ ٱللَّاوِيِّينَ حَامِلِينَ ٱلتَّابُوتَ، وَٱلْمُغَنُّونَ وَكَنَنْيَا رَئِيسُ ٱلْحَمْلِ مَعَ ٱلْمُغَنِّينَ. وَكَانَ عَلَى دَاوُدَ أَفُودٌ مِنْ كَتَّانٍ. ٢٧ 27
David was clothed with a robe of fine linen, and all the Levites who bore the ark, and the singers, and Chenaniah the master of the song with the singers: and David had on him an ephod of linen.
فَكَانَ جَمِيعُ إِسْرَائِيلَ يُصْعِدُونَ تَابُوتَ عَهْدِ ٱلرَّبِّ بِهُتَافٍ، وَبِصَوْتِ ٱلْأَصْوَارِ وَٱلْأَبْوَاقِ وَٱلصُّنُوجِ، يُصَوِّتُونَ بِٱلرَّبَابِ وَٱلْعِيدَانِ. ٢٨ 28
Thus all Israel brought up the ark of the covenant of the LORD with shouting, and with sound of the cornet, and with trumpets, and with cymbals, sounding aloud with stringed instruments and harps.
وَلَمَّا دَخَلَ تَابُوتُ عَهْدِ ٱلرَّبِّ مَدِينَةَ دَاوُدَ، أَشْرَفَتْ مِيكَالُ بِنْتُ شَاوُلَ مِنَ ٱلْكُوَّةِ فَرَأَتِ ٱلْمَلِكَ دَاوُدَ يَرْقُصُ وَيَلْعَبُ، فَٱحْتَقَرَتْهُ فِي قَلْبِهَا. ٢٩ 29
It happened, as the ark of the covenant of the LORD came to the City of David, that Mikal the daughter of Saul looked out at the window, and saw king David dancing and playing; and she despised him in her heart.
