< 2 Samuel 6 >
1 David mah qoih ih Israel kami sang quithumtonawk loe ahmuen maeto ah amkhuengsak.
David again gathered together all the chosen men of Israel, thirty thousand.
2 Cherubim salakah kaom, misatuh kaminawk ih Angraeng ahmin hoiah kawk ih, Angraeng ih thingkhong to Judah prae Baale vangpui hoiah aput hanah, David loe angthawk moe, angmah khaeah kaom kaminawk hoi nawnto a caeh.
David arose and went with all the people who were with him from Baale Judah, to bring up from there God’s ark, which is called by the Name, even the name of the LORD of Armies who sits above the cherubim.
3 Sithaw ih thingkhong to maitaw leeng kangtha nuiah suek o moe, Gibeah, tiah kawk ih mae nuiah kaom Abinadab ih im hoiah aput o; Abinadab capa Uzzah hoi Ahio mah, maitaw leeng to mongh hoi.
They set God’s ark on a new cart, and brought it out of Abinadab’s house that was on the hill; and Uzzah and Ahio, the sons of Abinadab, drove the new cart.
4 Sithaw ih thingkhong to mae nui ih Abinadab im hoiah a phawh o; to naah Ahio loe Sithaw ih thingkhong hmaa ah caeh.
They brought it out of Abinadab’s house which was in the hill, with God’s ark; and Ahio went before the ark.
5 To naah David hoi Israel imthung takohnawk boih mah hmaica thing hoiah sak ih katoeng congca, satuem, monglaeng, cingcengnawk hoiah Angraeng hmaa ah laasak o.
David and all the house of Israel played before the LORD with all kinds of instruments made of cypress wood, with harps, with stringed instruments, with tambourines, with castanets, and with cymbals.
6 Nakon ih cang atithaih ahmuen phak o naah loe, maitaw mah Sithaw ih thingkhong to ahoek pongah, Uzzah mah ban payangh moe, Sithaw thingkhong to sui.
When they came to the threshing floor of Nacon, Uzzah reached for God’s ark and took hold of it, for the cattle stumbled.
7 Angraeng loe Uzzah nuiah paroeai palungphui; a sakpazaehaih pongah Sithaw mah anih to hum, anih loe Sithaw ih thingkhong taengah duek sut.
The LORD’s anger burned against Uzzah, and God struck him there for his error; and he died there by God’s ark.
8 Sithaw mah Uzzah to danpaek pongah, David loe poeknawm ai; to pongah vaihni khoek to to ahmuen to Perez-Uzzah, tiah kawk o.
David was displeased because the LORD had broken out against Uzzah; and he called that place Perez Uzzah to this day.
9 David loe to na niah Angraeng to zit pongah, Angraeng ih thingkhong to kawbangmaw kaimah khaeah ka sin thai han? tiah a thuih.
David was afraid of the LORD that day; and he said, “How could the LORD’s ark come to me?”
10 David loe angmah ih David vangpui thungah Angraeng ih thingkhong to phaw ai; Gath kami Obed-Edom im ah caeh haih ving.
So David would not move the LORD’s ark to be with him in David’s city; but David carried it aside into Obed-Edom the Gittite’s house.
11 Angraeng ih thingkhong loe Obed-Edom im ah khrah thumto thung oh; to naah Angraeng mah Obed-Edom hoi anih ih imthung takoh kaminawk boih to tahamhoihaih paek.
The LORD’s ark remained in Obed-Edom the Gittite’s house three months; and the LORD blessed Obed-Edom and all his house.
12 Sithaw ih thingkhong pongah, Obed-Edom hoi a imthung takohnawk boih Angraeng mah tahamhoihaih paek ti, tiah David siangpahrang khaeah thuih pae o. To pongah David loe caeh tathuk moe, Sithaw thingkhong to Obed-Edom im hoiah David vangpui thungah anghoehaih hoiah phawh let.
King David was told, “The LORD has blessed the house of Obed-Edom, and all that belongs to him, because of God’s ark.” So David went and brought up God’s ark from the house of Obed-Edom into David’s city with joy.
13 Angraeng ih thingkhong kapu kaminawk mah khok tangkan tarukto takan o pacoengah, maitaw tae maeto hoi kathawk maitaw caanawk to angbawnhaih ah a sak.
When those who bore the LORD’s ark had gone six paces, he sacrificed an ox and a fattened calf.
14 David loe rong kangpha puu kahni to angkhuk pacoengah, Angraeng hmaa ah tha pathoh moe, hnawh.
David danced before the LORD with all his might; and David was clothed in a linen ephod.
15 To naah David hoi Israel imthung takohnawk loe, Angraeng ih thingkhong to hanghaih hoi mongkah lok hoiah aput o tahang.
So David and all the house of Israel brought up the LORD’s ark with shouting and with the sound of the trumpet.
16 Angraeng ih thingkhong David vangpui thungah akun naah, Saul canu Mikal mah tapang khaw thung hoiah a bih; Angraeng hmaa ah angphet hoi kahnawh David siangpahrang to a hnuk naah, anih mah Daivid to palung thung hoiah khet patoek.
As the LORD’s ark came into David’s city, Michal the daughter of Saul looked out through the window and saw King David leaping and dancing before the LORD; and she despised him in her heart.
17 Angraeng ih thingkhong to phawh o moe, David mah to thingkhong suek hanah sakcoek ih kahni imthung ah a suek o; to naah David mah hmai angbawnhaih hoi angdaeh angbawnhaih to Angraeng hmaa ah sak.
They brought in the LORD’s ark, and set it in its place in the middle of the tent that David had pitched for it; and David offered burnt offerings and peace offerings before the LORD.
18 David mah hmai angbawnhaih hoi angdaeh angbawnhaih paek pacoengah, misatuh kaminawk ih Angraeng Sithaw hmin hoiah kaminawk to tahamhoihaih paek.
When David had finished offering the burnt offering and the peace offerings, he blessed the people in the name of the LORD of Armies.
19 To pacoengah nongpa nongpata tih ai, Israel kaminawk boih hanah, takaw kae maeto, moi tetta hoi misurthaih kazaek to paek. To pacoengah kaminawk loe angmacae im ah amlaem o.
He gave to all the people, even among the whole multitude of Israel, both to men and women, to everyone a portion of bread, dates, and raisins. So all the people departed, each to his own house.
20 Angmah ih imthung takoh tahamhoihaih paek hanah, David loe im ah amlaem. Saul canu Mikal loe David khet hanah angzoh moe, anih khaeah, Vaihniah Israel siangpahrang loe kawkrukmaw lensawk; tidoeh na ai kami rumram mah azathaih tawn ai ah a khukbuen to angkhring baktih toengah, a tamna nongpatanawk hmaa ah anih doeh khukbuen angkhring toeng, tiah a naa.
Then David returned to bless his household. Michal the daughter of Saul came out to meet David, and said, “How glorious the king of Israel was today, who uncovered himself today in the eyes of his servants’ maids, as one of the vain fellows shamelessly uncovers himself!”
21 David mah Mikal khaeah, Nam pa hoi anih ih imthung takohnawk boih hmaa ah Angraeng mah ang qoih, anih mah ni kai hae Angraeng ih Israel kaminawk ukkung ah ohsak. To pongah Angraeng hmaa ah ka kawnh.
David said to Michal, “It was before the LORD, who chose me above your father, and above all his house, to appoint me prince over the people of the LORD, over Israel. Therefore I will celebrate before the LORD.
22 Hae hmuen pongah azat ai ah ka oh moe, poek pahnaemhaih hoiah ka oh han; na thuih ih tamna nongpatanawk mah kai na pakoeh o aep tih, tiah a naa.
I will be yet more undignified than this, and will be worthless in my own sight. But the maids of whom you have spoken will honor me.”
23 To pongah Saul canu Mikal loe, duek khoek to caa sah ai ah oh.
Michal the daughter of Saul had no child to the day of her death.
