1 Ljetopisa 15
1 Onda je David sazidao dvore u Davidovu gradu, pripravio mjesto za Kovčeg Božji i razapeo mu Šator.
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.
2 Potom je rekao David: “Ne smije nositi Kovčeg Božji nitko osim levita, jer je njih izabrao Jahve da nose Kovčeg Jahvin i da mu služe dovijeka.”
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 je sakupio sav Izrael u Jeruzalem da prenesu Kovčeg Jahvin gore na njegovo mjesto koje mu bijaše pripravio.
And David assembled all Israel to Jerusalem, to bring up the ark of Jehovah to its place that he had prepared for it.
4 Skupio je David i Aronove sinove i levite.
And David gathered the sons of Aaron and the Levites:
5 Od Kehatovih sinova: kneza Uriela i sto dvadeset njegove braće;
of the sons of Kohath, Uriel the chief, and his brethren a hundred and twenty;
6 od Merarijevih sinova: kneza Asaju i dvjesta dvadeset njegove braće;
of the sons of Merari, Asaiah the chief, and his brethren two hundred and twenty;
7 od Geršomovih sinova: kneza Joela i sto trideset njegove braće.
of the sons of Gershom, Joel the chief, and his brethren a hundred and thirty;
8 Od Elisafanovih sinova: kneza Šemaju i dvjesta njegove braće.
of the sons of Elizaphan, Shemaiah the chief, and his brethren two hundred;
9 Od Hebronovih sinova: kneza Eliela i osamdeset njegove braće;
of the sons of Hebron, Eliel the chief, and his brethren eighty;
10 od Uzielovih sinova: kneza Aminadaba i sto dvanaest njegove braće.
of the sons of Uzziel, Amminadab the chief, and his brethren a hundred and twelve.
11 Tada David pozva svećenike Sadoka i Ebjatara i levite Uriela, Asaju, Joela, Šemaju, Eliela i Aminadaba,
And David called for Zadok and Abiathar the priests, and for the Levites, for Uriel, Asaiah, and Joel, Shemaiah, and Eliel, and Amminadab;
12 pa im reče: “Vi ste glavari levitskih porodica; posvetite sebe i svoju braću da prenesete gore Kovčeg Jahve, Izraelova Boga, na mjesto koje sam mu pripravio.
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 Jer nas je pobio Jahve, Bog naš, zato što prvi put vi niste bili nazočni i što ga nismo tražili onako kako je trebalo.”
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 Posvetiše se tada svećenici i leviti da prenesu gore Kovčeg Jahve, Izraelova Boga.
So the priests and the Levites hallowed themselves to bring up the ark of Jehovah the God of Israel.
15 Levitski su sinovi ponijeli Božji Kovčeg, na svojim ramenima, o motkama, kako je zapovjedio Mojsije po Jahvinoj riječi.
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.
16 Tada David reče levitskim knezovima da između svoje braće postave pjevače s glazbalima, s harfama, citrama i cimbalima da se čuje i da gromko odjekuje radosno pjevanje.
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 Leviti su postavili Joelova sina Hemana, a od njegove braće Berekjina sina Asafa, i od njihove braće, Merarijevih sinova, Kušajina sina Etana.
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;
18 S njima njihovu braću drugoga reda: Zahariju, sina Jaazielova, Šemiramota, Jehiela, Unija, Eliaba, Benaju, Maaseju, Matitju, Eliflehua, Mikneju, Obed Edoma i Jeiela, vratare.
and with them their brethren of the second [rank], Zechariah, Ben, and Jaaziel, and Shemiramoth, and Jehiel, and Unni, Eliab, and Benaiah, and Maaseiah, and Mattithiah, and Elipheleh, and Mikneiah, and Obed-Edom, and Jeiel, the doorkeepers;
19 A pjevači, Heman, Asaf i Etan gromko su udarali u mjedene cimbale.
and the singers, Heman, Asaph, and Ethan, to sound aloud with cymbals of brass;
20 A Zaharija, Uziel, Šemiramot, Jehiel, Uni, Eliab, Maaseja i Benaja u harfe s visokim zvucima;
and Zechariah, and Aziel, and Shemiramoth, and Jehiel, and Unni, and Eliab, and Maaseiah, and Benaiah, with lutes on Alamoth;
21 a Matitja, Eliflehu, Mikneja, Obed Edom, Jeiel i Azazja u citre, u osminskoj pratnji.
and Mattithiah, and Elipheleh, and Mikneiah, and Obed-Edom and Jeiel, and Azaziah, with harps on the Sheminith to lead [the singing].
22 Kenanja, knez onih levita koji su nosili Kovčeg, upravljao je prenošenjem jer je bio vješt u tome.
And Chenaniah, chief of the Levites for the music, gave instruction in music, for he was skilful.
23 Berekja i Elkana bili su vratari kod Kovčega.
And Berechiah and Elkanah were doorkeepers for the ark.
24 Šebanija, Jošafat, Netanel, Amasaj, Zaharija, Benaja i Eliezer, svećenici, trubili su u trube pred Božjim Kovčegom; Obed Edom i Jehija bili su vratari kod Kovčega.
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 Tako je David s izraelskim starješinama i tisućnicima radosno išao prenoseći gore Kovčeg saveza Jahvina iz Obed-Edomove kuće.
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 Kad je Bog pomogao levitima koji su nosili Kovčeg saveza Jahvina, žrtvovali su sedam junaca i sedam ovnova.
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 bijaše ogrnut plaštem od tanka platna, a tako i svi leviti što su nosili Kovčeg, kao i pjevači i Kenanija koji je upravljao pjevačima. David je imao na sebi lanen oplećak.
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 Tako je sav Izrael prenosio gore Kovčeg saveza Jahvina, radosno kličući uz jeku rogova, truba i cimbala, igrajući uza zvuke harfe i citre.
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 Kad je Kovčeg saveza Jahvina ulazio u Davidov grad, Šaulova kći Mikala, gledajući s prozora, vidje kralja Davida kako skače i igra i prezre ga ona u svom srcu.
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.
