< 2 Samuel 6 >

1 Chuin David in avellin Israel mi galhang sangsom thum kilhengdoh ho chu akoukhom kit in ahi.
David again gathered together all the chosen men of Israel, thirty thousand.
2 David in amaho chu alamkai in Judah gamma Baalah kom a Pathen thingkong chu gale poh din achi taovin ahi, hichu van pathen sepai ho minna kikou, alai a Cherubim lal touna um chu ahi.
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 Yahweh of Armies who sits above the cherubim.
3 Hichun Pathen thingkong chu bongkang thah chungah aheng un chule molchung lamma Abinadab’s in akon ahinpudoh taovin, chule Abinadab’s chapateni Uzzah le Ahio chun bongkang chu ahintol lhon in ahi.
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 Pathen thingkong kipoh nachu. Chule Ahio chu thingkong masangah achin ahi.
They brought it out of Abinadab’s house which was in the hill, with God’s ark; and Ahio went before the ark.
5 Chuin David le Israel mipi jouse chun Pakai masangah la a asaovin, chule tumging thei jouse – pengkul, selangdah, khongpi, selki, chule sumlheng jouse suging pummin golnup abol taovin ahi.
David and all the house of Israel played before Yahweh with all kinds of instruments made of cypress wood, with harps, with stringed instruments, with tambourines, with castanets, and with cymbals.
6 Ahinlah amahon Nacon changphol mun ahin phah uchun bongchal teni chu akipal lhu lhonin ahileh Uzzah chun akhut ajahdoh gangchal in Pathen thingkong chu atuh tan ahi.
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 Hichun Pathen lunghan nachu Uzzah chungah achutan hijeh chun Pathennin Uzzah chu amun maman Pathen thingkong komah chun athat tan ahi.
Yahweh’s anger burned against Uzzah, and God struck him there for his error; and he died there by God’s ark.
8 Pathenin Uzzah chunga alunghan ahinbuh lhah jeng jeh chun David alung phamo lheh tan ahi. hijeh chun aman hiche mun chu Perez – Uzzah asah tan ahi (hichu Uzzah chunga thunoh lhunna mun tin na ahi), tuni chanin akisaah tan ahi.
David was displeased because Yahweh had broken out against Uzzah; and he called that place Perez Uzzah to this day.
9 Hiche thilsoh jou apet chun David in Pakai chu akicha lheh tan, hijeh chun aman Pakai chu adong tan ahi, “eti keiman Pakai thing kong hi keima vetsui nanoi a kahin le choilut thei ding ham?” ati.
David was afraid of Yahweh that day; and he said, “How could Yahweh’s ark come to me?”
10 Hijeh chun David in Pakai thingkong chu David khopi a pohlut lou din pha asah tai. Hinlah Gath mi Obed – edom insung injoh apolut tan ahi.
So David would not move Yahweh’s ark to be with him in David’s city; but David carried it aside into Obed-Edom the Gittite’s house.
11 Pakai thingkong chu Obed – edom insungah lhathum sung aumden nalai in, hijeh chun Obed – edom le a insung pumpi chu Pakai Pathen in phatthei abohtan ahi.
Yahweh’s ark remained in Obed-Edom the Gittite’s house three months; and Yahweh blessed Obed-Edom and all his house.
12 Hichun leng David chu hitin akiseipih tan ahi, “Pakaiyin Obed – edom’s insung pumpi le aneijouse phatthei abohtan ahi Pathen thingkong jeh chun.” Hijeh chun David jong achin Pathen thingkong chu Obed – edom insunga kon david khopi lammah kipa golnup loupi tah pummin ahin potan ahi.
King David was told, “Yahweh 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 Chuin Pakai thingkong puhon kalgup ason jou un, David in bongchal le bongnou thaochat in kilhaina aboltan ahi.
When those who bore Yahweh’s ark had gone six paces, he sacrificed an ox and a fattened calf.
14 Chuin David chun thempu ho sangkhol chol akiah in atha neina jouse pummin Pakai angsungah alam tan ahi.
David danced before Yahweh with all his might; and David was clothed in a linen ephod.
15 Hichun David le Israel mipi jouse chun Pakai thingkong chu kipah thong jeju le kelchaki mutging toh thon aputou taovin ahi.
So David and all the house of Israel brought up Yahweh’s ark with shouting and with the sound of the trumpet.
16 Ahin Pakai thingkong chu David khopi alhut taovin ahileh, Saul chanu Michal chun abang kot akon ahin suhvet tan ahi. chuin amanun leng David Pakai angsunga akhut alea alam chu amutan ahileh amanu chu David chung ngah lung himo nana dim tan ahi.
As Yahweh’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 Yahweh; and she despised him in her heart.
17 Chuin Pakai thingkong chu ahin puvin David in akoi nadia asem ponbuh sungah chun akoi taovin ahi. chuin David in Pakai angah kilhainan govam thilto le chamna thilto aneitan ahi.
They brought in Yahweh’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 Yahweh.
18 Chuin kilhaina abolchai in, David in mipi jouse chu van Pathen minin phatthei aboh taovin ahi.
When David had finished offering the burnt offering and the peace offerings, he blessed the people in the name of Yahweh of Armies.
19 Chuin Israel pasal jouse le numei jouse chu changlhah phengkhat cheh, sachan khat cheh, le lengpi theija kisem changlhah khat cheh ahoppih un ahi. chujouvin mipi jouse chu a inlam cheh un akile taovin ahi.
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 Hitichun David’in ama insung mite phattheiboh ding tia inlam akile chun, Saul chanu Michal ama kimupi din ahungpot doh in ahi. amanun jalou tah in hitin aseiye, “eti jachat um hitam tuni Israel lengpan mingol khat in abol ding tabanga asaguhkiuva asoh numeiho masanga aum jeng chu!” ati.
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 Chuin David in Michal chu alethuh in, “keima Pakai napa te le ainsung mite jouse chung vum'a eilhengpa! Pathen mi Israel te chunga lamkai dia eingansepa masanga chu kipah a lam kahi ati.
David said to Michal, “It was before Yahweh, who chose me above your father, and above all his house, to appoint me prince over the people of Yahweh, over Israel. Therefore I will celebrate before Yahweh.
22 Henge, hisanga ngoljo a umding jong kanome chule keima mitmutah a kineosah ding jong! Ahin soh numei naminphah ho vang chun keimahi chingtah a eigel diu ahi! ati.
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 Hitichun Saul chanu Michal chu ahinkho lhumkei jin chaneilou vin aum tan ahi.
Michal the daughter of Saul had no child to the day of her death.
