撒母耳记下 6
1 大卫又聚集以色列中所有挑选的人三万。
David again assembled the chosen men of Israel, thirty thousand in all.
2 大卫起身，率领跟随他的众人前往，要从巴拉·犹大将 神的约柜运来；这约柜就是坐在二基路伯上万军之耶和华留名的约柜。
And he and all his troops set out for Baale of Judah to bring up from there the ark of God, which is called by the Name— the name of the LORD of Hosts, who is enthroned between the cherubim that are on it.
3 他们将 神的约柜从冈上亚比拿达的家里抬出来，放在新车上；亚比拿达的两个儿子乌撒和亚希约赶这新车。
They set the ark of God on a new cart and brought it from the house of Abinadab, which was on the hill. Uzzah and Ahio, the sons of Abinadab, were guiding the new cart,
4 他们将 神的约柜从冈上亚比拿达家里抬出来的时候，亚希约在柜前行走。
bringing with it the ark of God. And Ahio was walking in front of the ark.
5 大卫和以色列的全家在耶和华面前，用松木制造的各样乐器和琴、瑟、鼓、钹、锣，作乐跳舞。
David and all the house of Israel were celebrating before the LORD with all kinds of wood instruments, harps, stringed instruments, tambourines, sistrums, and cymbals.
6 到了拿艮的禾场，因为牛失前蹄，乌撒就伸手扶住 神的约柜。
When they came to the threshing floor of Nacon, Uzzah reached out and took hold of the ark of God, because the oxen had stumbled.
7 神耶和华向乌撒发怒，因这错误击杀他，他就死在 神的约柜旁。
And the anger of the LORD burned against Uzzah, and God struck him down on the spot for his irreverence, and he died there beside the ark of God.
8 大卫因耶和华击杀乌撒，心里愁烦，就称那地方为毗列斯·乌撒，直到今日。
Then David became angry because the LORD had burst forth against Uzzah; so he named that place Perez-uzzah, as it is called to this day.
9 那日，大卫惧怕耶和华，说：“耶和华的约柜怎可运到我这里来？”
That day David feared the LORD and asked, “How can the ark of the LORD ever come to me?”
10 于是大卫不肯将耶和华的约柜运进大卫的城，却运到迦特人俄别·以东的家中。
So he was unwilling to move the ark of the LORD to the City of David; instead, he took it aside to the house of Obed-edom the Gittite.
11 耶和华的约柜在迦特人俄别·以东家中三个月；耶和华赐福给俄别·以东和他的全家。
Thus the ark of the LORD remained in the house of Obed-edom the Gittite for three months, and the LORD blessed him and all his household.
12 有人告诉大卫王说：“耶和华因为约柜赐福给俄别·以东的家和一切属他的。”大卫就去，欢欢喜喜地将 神的约柜从俄别·以东家中抬到大卫的城里。
Now it was reported to King David, “The LORD has blessed the house of Obed-edom and all that belongs to him, because of the ark of God.” So David went and had the ark of God brought up from the house of Obed-edom into the City of David with rejoicing.
13 抬耶和华约柜的人走了六步，大卫就献牛与肥羊为祭。
When those carrying the ark of the LORD had advanced six paces, he sacrificed an ox and a fattened calf.
14 大卫穿着细麻布的以弗得，在耶和华面前极力跳舞。
And David, wearing a linen ephod, danced with all his might before the LORD,
15 这样，大卫和以色列的全家欢呼吹角，将耶和华的约柜抬上来。
while he and all the house of Israel brought up the ark of the LORD with shouting and the sounding of the ram’s horn.
16 耶和华的约柜进了大卫城的时候，扫罗的女儿米甲从窗户里观看，见大卫王在耶和华面前踊跃跳舞，心里就轻视他。
As the ark of the LORD was entering the City of David, Saul’s daughter Michal looked down from a window and saw King David leaping and dancing before the LORD, and she despised him in her heart.
17 众人将耶和华的约柜请进去，安放在所预备的地方，就是在大卫所搭的帐幕里。大卫在耶和华面前献燔祭和平安祭。
So they brought the ark of the LORD and set it in its place inside the tent that David had pitched for it. Then David offered burnt offerings and peace offerings before the LORD.
18 大卫献完了燔祭和平安祭，就奉万军之耶和华的名给民祝福，
When David had finished sacrificing the burnt offerings and peace offerings, he blessed the people in the name of the LORD of Hosts.
19 并且分给以色列众人，无论男女，每人一个饼，一块肉，一个葡萄饼；众人就各回各家去了。
Then he distributed to every man and woman among the multitude of Israel a loaf of bread, a date cake, and a raisin cake. And all the people departed, each for his own home.
20 大卫回家要给眷属祝福；扫罗的女儿米甲出来迎接他，说：“以色列王今日在臣仆的婢女眼前露体，如同一个轻贱人无耻露体一样，有好大的荣耀啊！”
As soon as David returned home to bless his own household, Saul’s daughter Michal came out to meet him. “How the king of Israel has distinguished himself today!” she said. “He has uncovered himself today in the sight of the maidservants of his subjects, like a vulgar person would do.”
21 大卫对米甲说：“这是在耶和华面前；耶和华已拣选我，废了你父和你父的全家，立我作耶和华民以色列的君，所以我必在耶和华面前跳舞。
But David said to Michal, “I was dancing before the LORD, who chose me over your father and all his house when He appointed me ruler over the LORD’s people Israel. I will celebrate before the LORD,
22 我也必更加卑微，自己看为轻贱。你所说的那些婢女，她们倒要尊敬我。”
and I will humiliate and humble myself even more than this. Yet I will be honored by the maidservants of whom you have spoken.”
23 扫罗的女儿米甲，直到死日，没有生养儿女。
And Michal the daughter of Saul had no children to the day of her death.
