< 2 Samuel 6 >

1 David mah qoih ih Israel kami sang quithumtonawk loe ahmuen maeto ah amkhuengsak.
And 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.
And David arose, and went with all the people that were with him, from Baale-judah, to bring up from thence the ark of God, whereupon is called the Name, even the name of the LORD of hosts that sitteth upon 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.
And they set the ark of God upon a new cart, and brought it out of the house of Abinadab that was in 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.
And they brought it out of the house of Abinadab, which was in the hill, with the ark of God, 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.
And David and all the house of Israel played before the LORD with all manner of instruments made of cypress-wood, and with harps, and with psalteries, and with timbrels, and with sistra, 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.
And when they came to the threshing-floor of Nacon, Uzzah put forth his hand to the ark of God, and took hold of it; for the oxen stumbled.
7 Angraeng loe Uzzah nuiah paroeai palungphui; a sakpazaehaih pongah Sithaw mah anih to hum, anih loe Sithaw ih thingkhong taengah duek sut.
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 Sithaw mah Uzzah to danpaek pongah, David loe poeknawm ai; to pongah vaihni khoek to to ahmuen to Perez-Uzzah, tiah kawk o.
And David was displeased, because the LORD had broken forth upon Uzzah; and that place was called Perez-uzzah, unto 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.
And David was afraid of the LORD that day; and he said: 'How shall the ark of the LORD come unto 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 remove the ark of the LORD unto him into the city of David; but David carried it aside into the house of Obed-edom the Gittite.
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.
And the ark of the LORD remained in the house of Obed-edom the Gittite 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.
And it was told king David, saying: 'The LORD hath blessed the house of Obed-edom, and all that pertaineth unto him, because of the ark of God.' And David went and brought up the ark of God from the house of Obed-edom into the city of David 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.
And it was so, that when they that bore the ark of the LORD had gone six paces, he sacrificed an ox and a fatling.
14 David loe rong kangpha puu kahni to angkhuk pacoengah, Angraeng hmaa ah tha pathoh moe, hnawh.
And David danced before the LORD with all his might; and David was girded with 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 ark of the LORD with shouting, and with the sound of the horn.
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.
And it was so, as the ark of the LORD came into the city of David, that Michal the daughter of Saul looked out at 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.
And they brought in the ark of the LORD, and set it in its place, in the midst 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.
And when David had made an end of offering the burnt-offering and the peace-offerings, he blessed the people in the name of the LORD of hosts.
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.
And he dealt among all the people, even among the whole multitude of Israel, both to men and women, to every one a cake of bread, and a cake made in a pan, and a sweet cake. So all the people departed every one to his 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. And Michal the daughter of Saul came out to meet David, and said: 'How did the king of Israel get him honour to-day, who uncovered himself to-day in the eyes of the handmaids of his servants, as one of the vain fellows shamelessly uncovereth 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.
And David said unto Michal: 'Before the LORD, who chose me above thy father, and above all his house, to appoint me prince over the people of the LORD, over Israel, before the LORD will I make merry.
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.
And I will be yet more vile than thus, and will be base in mine own sight; and with the handmaids whom thou hast spoken of, with them will I get me honour.'
23 To pongah Saul canu Mikal loe, duek khoek to caa sah ai ah oh.
And Michal the daughter of Saul had no child unto the day of her death.
