< 2 Samueli 6 >

1 Davide anasonkhanitsanso pamodzi ankhondo 3,000 osankhidwa pakati pa Aisraeli.
Again, David gathered together all the chosen men of Israel, thirty thousand.
2 Iye pamodzi ndi ankhondo ake onse anapita ku Baalahi ku Yuda kukatenga Bokosi la Chipangano la Mulungu, limene limadziwika ndi Dzina lake, dzina la Yehova Wamphamvuzonse, amene amakhala pakati pa Akerubi amene ali pa Bokosi la Chipanganolo.
And David arose, and went with all the people that were with him from Baale of Judah, to bring up from there the ark of God, whose name is called by the name of the LORD of hosts that dwelleth between the cherubim.
3 Iwo anayika Bokosi la Mulungu pa ngolo yatsopano nachoka nalo ku nyumba ya Abinadabu, imene inali pa phiri. Uza ndi Ahiyo ana a Abinadabu ndiwo ankayendetsa ngolo yatsopanoyo,
And they set the ark of God upon a new cart, and brought it out of the house of Abinadab that was in Gibeah: and Uzzah and Ahio, the sons of Abinadab, drove the new cart.
4 imene inanyamula Bokosi la Mulungu, ndipo Ahiyo mwana wa Abinadabu ankayenda patsogolo pake.
And they brought it out of the house of Abinadab which was at Gibeah, accompanying the ark of God: and Ahio went before the ark.
5 Davide pamodzi ndi Aisraeli onse ankakondwerera ndi mphamvu zawo zonse pamaso pa Yehova poyimba nyimbo pogwiritsa ntchito azeze, apangwe, matambolini, maseche ndi malipenga.
And David and all the house of Israel played before the LORD on all manner of instruments made of fir wood, even on harps, and on psalteries, and on timbrels, and on cornets, and on cymbals.
6 Atafika pa malo opunthira tirigu a Nakoni, Uza anatambalitsa dzanja lake kuti agwire Bokosi la Mulungu, chifukwa ngʼombe zinkafuna kugwa.
And when they came to Nachon’s threshingfloor, Uzzah put forth his hand to the ark of God, and took hold of it; for the oxen shook it.
7 Yehova anapsera mtima Uza chifukwa chochita chinthu chosayenera kuchitika. Choncho Mulungu anamukantha ndipo anafera pomwepo pambali pa Bokosi la Mulungulo.
And the anger of the LORD was kindled against Uzzah; and God smote him there for his error; and there he died by the ark of God.
8 Ndipo Davide anakhumudwa chifukwa Yehova anakantha Uza ndipo mpaka lero malowo amatchedwa Perezi Uza.
And David was displeased, because the LORD had broken forth in anger against Uzzah: and he called the name of the place Perezuzzah to this day.
9 Tsiku limenelo Davide anachita mantha ndi Yehova ndipo anati, “Kodi Bokosi la Yehova lingafike bwanji kwathu?”
And David was afraid of the LORD that day, and said, How shall the ark of the LORD come to me?
10 Iye sanafunenso kubwera ndi Bokosi la Yehova kawo ku mzinda wake wa Davide. Mʼmalo mwake anapita nalo ku nyumba ya Obedi-Edomu Mgiti.
So David would not remove the ark of the LORD to him into the city of David: but David carried it aside into the house of Obededom the Gittite.
11 Bokosi la Yehova linakhala mʼnyumba ya Obedi-Edomu Mgiti kwa miyezi itatu, ndipo Yehova anamudalitsa kwambiri iyeyo ndi banja lake lonse.
And the ark of the LORD continued in the house of Obededom the Gittite three months: and the LORD blessed Obededom, and all his household.
12 Tsono Mfumu Davide anawuzidwa kuti, “Yehova wadalitsa nyumba ya Obedi-Edomu ndi zonse zimene ali nazo, chifukwa cha Bokosi la Mulungu.” Choncho Davide anapita kukatenga Bokosi la Mulungu ku nyumba ya Obedi-Edomu ndi kupita nalo ku mzinda wa Davide akukondwera kwambiri.
And it was told king David, saying, The LORD hath blessed the house of Obededom, and all that pertaineth to him, because of the ark of God. So David went and brought up the ark of God from the house of Obededom into the city of David with gladness.
13 Anthu amene ananyamula Bokosi la Yehova ankati akayenda mapazi asanu ndi limodzi, iye ankapereka nsembe ngʼombe yayimuna ndi mwana wangʼombe wonenepa.
And it was so, that when they that bore the ark of the LORD had gone six paces, he sacrificed oxen and fatlings.
14 Davide ankavina ndi mphamvu zake zonse pamaso pa Yehova atavala efodi ya nsalu yofewa yosalala,
And David danced before the LORD with all his might; and David was girded with a linen ephod.
15 pamene iyeyo pamodzi ndi Aisraeli onse ankabwera ndi Bokosi la Yehova, akufuwula ndi kuyimba malipenga.
So David and all the house of Israel brought up the ark of the LORD with shouting, and with the sound of the trumpet.
16 Bokosi la Yehova likulowa mu Mzinda wa Davide, Mikala mwana wamkazi wa Sauli ankaona ali pa zenera. Ndipo ataona Mfumu Davide ikulumpha ndi kuvina pamaso pa Yehova, ankamunyogodola mu mtima mwake.
And as the ark of the LORD came into the city of David, Michal Saul’s daughter looked through a window, and saw king David leaping and dancing before the LORD; and she despised him in her heart.
17 Iwo anabwera nalo Bokosi la Yehova ndipo analiyika pamalo pake mʼkati mwa tenti imene Davide anayimika ndipo Davideyo anapereka nsembe zopsereza ndi nsembe zachiyanjano pamaso pa Yehova.
And they brought in the ark of the LORD, and set it in its place, inside the tabernacle that David had pitched for it: and David offered burnt offerings and peace offerings before the LORD.
18 Atatsiriza kupereka nsembe zopsereza ndi nsembe zachiyanjano, iye anadalitsa anthu mʼdzina la Yehova Wamphamvuzonse.
And as soon as David had finished offering burnt offerings and peace offerings, he blessed the people in the name of the LORD of hosts.
19 Kenaka iye anagawira Aisraeli onsewo, aamuna ndi aakazi, aliyense buledi mmodzi, nthuli yanyama, ndiponso keke yamphesa zowuma. Ndipo anthu onse anachokapo, napita aliyense ku nyumba kwake.
And he distributed among all the people, even among the whole multitude of Israel, as well to the women as men, to every one a cake of bread, and a good piece of flesh, and a flagon of wine. So all the people departed every one to his house.
20 Davide atabwerera ku nyumba kwake kukadalitsa banja lake, Mikala mwana wamkazi wa Sauli anatuluka kudzakumana naye ndipo anati, “Kodi mfumu ya Israeli ingatero kudzilemekeza kwake lero, kudzithyolathyola pamaso pa akapolo aakazi, antchito ake ngati munthu wamba.”
Then David returned to bless his household. And Michal the daughter of Saul came out to meet David, and said, How glorious was the king of Israel to day, who uncovered himself to day in the eyes of the handmaids of his servants, as one of the foolish fellows shamelessly uncovereth himself!
21 Davide anamuyankha Mikala kuti, “Ndachita zimenezi molemekeza Yehova, amene anandisankha ine kupambana abambo ako, kapenanso kupambana banja la abambo ako. Ndipo anandisankha kuti ndikhale wolamulira Aisraeli, anthu a Yehova. Nʼchifukwa chake ndidzasangalalabe pamaso pa Yehova.
And David said to Michal, It was before the LORD, who chose me before thy father, and before all his house, to appoint me ruler over the people of the LORD, over Israel: therefore will I play before the LORD.
22 Ineyo ndidzadzinyoza kuposa apa, ndipo ndidzakhala wonyozeka mʼmaso mwako. Koma pakati pa akapolo aakazi awa amene umanena za iwo, ndidzalemekezedwa.”
And I will yet be more contemptible than this, and will be base in my own sight: and by the maidservants which thou hast spoken of, by them shall I be had in honour.
23 Ndipo Mikala mwana wa Sauli sanakhalenso ndi mwana mpaka anamwalira.
Therefore Michal the daughter of Saul had no child until the day of her death.
