1 Dungkrhoekhaih 15

1 David loe angmah hanah, David vangpui to sak moe, Sithaw ih thingkhong suekhaih kahni im doeh a sak.

And he made him houses in the city of David, and prepared a place for the ark of God, and spread a tent for it.

Then David said, None ought to carry the ark of God but the Levites, for them has Jehovah chosen to carry the ark of God, and to serve him for ever.

3 David mah sak ih kahni im ah Sithaw ih thingkhong phawh hanah, David mah Israel kaminawk boih Jerusalem ah nawnto amkhuengsak.

And David assembled all Israel to Jerusalem, to bring up the ark of Jehovah to its place that he had prepared for it.

4 David mah, Aaron ih caanawk hoi Levi acaengnawk to pakhueng boih.

And David gathered the sons of Aaron and the Levites:

11 To pacoeng ah David mah qaima Zadok hoi Abiathar; Levi acaeng Uriel, Asaiah, Joel, Shemaiah, Eliel hoi Amminadab cae to kawk.

And David called for Zadok and Abiathar the priests, and for the Levites, for Uriel, Asaiah, and Joel, Shemaiah, and Eliel, and Amminadab;

12 Nihcae khaeah, Nangcae loe Levi acaeng zaehoikung kacoehta ah na oh o; nangmacae hoi nam nawkamyanawk loe ciimcai ah om o sak loe, Israel Angraeng Sithaw ih thingkhong to, ka sak ih ahmuen ah angzawnh oh.

and he said to them, Ye are the chief fathers of the Levites; hallow yourselves, ye and your brethren, that ye may bring up the ark of Jehovah the God of Israel to [the place that] I have prepared for it.

13 Nangcae loe canghniah to tiah na sah o ai, a thuih ih lok baktih toengah kawbangmaw ka sak o han? tiah lok a dueng o ai pongah, aicae Angraeng Sithaw loe aicae nuiah palungphui, tiah a naa.

For because ye did [it] not at the first, Jehovah our God made a breach upon us, for that we sought him not after the due order.

14 To pongah qaima hoi Levi acaengnawk loe Israel Angraeng Sithaw ih thingkhong aput hanah ciimcai ah oh o.

So the priests and the Levites hallowed themselves to bring up the ark of Jehovah the God of Israel.

15 Angraeng mah Mosi khaeah paek ih lok baktih toengah, Levi acaengnawk mah Sithaw ih thingkhong to angzawnhaih thing hoiah palaeng ah aput o.

And the children of the Levites bore the ark of God upon their shoulders with the staves upon them, as Moses had commanded according to the word of Jehovah.

And David spoke to the chief of the Levites to appoint their brethren, the singers, with instruments of music, lutes, and harps, and cymbals, that they should sound aloud, lifting up the voice with joy.

17 To pongah Levi acaengnawk mah angmacae nawkamya thung hoiah Joel capa Heman, angmah ih amnawk Berakiah capa Asaph; Merari acaeng thungah angmacae nawkamya Kushaiah capa Ethan;

And the Levites appointed Heman the son of Joel; and of his brethren, Asaph the son of Berechiah; and of the sons of Merari their brethren, Ethan the son of Kushaiah;

22 Levi zaehoikung lu koek, Kenaniah loe laasak zaehoikung ah oh; anih loe laa zaehhoihaih kop kami ah oh.

And Chenaniah, chief of the Levites for the music, gave instruction in music, for he was skilful.

23 Berekiah hoi Elkanah loe Sithaw ih thingkhong akunhaih khongkha toepkung ah oh.

And Berechiah and Elkanah were doorkeepers for the ark.

And Shebaniah, and Jehoshaphat, and Nethaneel, and Amasai, and Zechariah, and Benaiah, and Eliezer, the priests, blew with the trumpets before the ark of God; and Obed-Edom and Jehijah were doorkeepers for the ark.

25 To pongah David hoi Israel kacoehtanawk, kami sangto ukkungnawk loe, anghoehaih hoiah Obed-Edom imthung hoiah Sithaw lokkamhaih thingkhong to sinh hanah caeh o.

And David, and the elders of Israel, and the captains over thousands, went to bring up the ark of the covenant of Jehovah out of the house of Obed-Edom with joy.

26 Angraeng lokkamhaih thingkhong apu Levi acaengnawk to, Sithaw mah abomh boeh pongah, maitaw tae sarihto hoi tuutae sarihto angbawnhaih ah a paek o.

And it came to pass, when God helped the Levites that bore the ark of the covenant of Jehovah, that they sacrificed seven bullocks and seven rams.

27 David hoi Sithaw ih thingkhong apuu Levi acaengnawk, laasah kaminawk, laasah zaehoikung Kenaniah loe puu ngan khukbuen hoiah amthoep o; David doeh puu ngan kahni to angkhuk toeng.

And David was clothed with a robe of byssus, and all the Levites that bore the ark, and the singers, and Chenaniah chief of the music of the singers; and David had upon him a linen ephod.

28 To tiah Israel kaminawk boih mah Angraeng lokkamhaih thingkhong to, hanghaih lok, tuu takii bohhaih lok, mongkah lok, cingceng lok hoi aqui kapop katoeng lok hoiah phawh o tahang.

And all Israel brought up the ark of the covenant of Jehovah with shouting, and with sound of the trumpet, and with clarions, and with cymbals, playing aloud with lutes and harps.

29 Angraeng lokkamhaih thingkhong David vangpui thungah phak naah, Saul canu Mikael mah thokbuem hoiah khet; anih mah hnawh moe, anghoehaih hoiah kaom, David siangpahrang to hnuk naah, anih to palung thung hoiah khet patoek.

And it came to pass as the ark of the covenant of Jehovah came to the city of David, that Michal the daughter of Saul looked through a window, and saw king David dancing and playing; and she despised him in her heart.
