1 Ljetopisa 15
1 Onda je David sazidao dvore u Davidovu gradu, pripravio mjesto za Kovčeg Božji i razapeo mu Šator.
And David made him houses in the city of David, and prepared a place for the ark of God, and pitched for it a tent.
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 the LORD chosen to carry the ark of God, and to minister to 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 gathered all Israel together to Jerusalem, to bring up the ark of the LORD to his place, which he had prepared for it.
4 Skupio je David i Aronove sinove i levite.
And David assembled the children 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 brothers an hundred and twenty:
6 od Merarijevih sinova: kneza Asaju i dvjesta dvadeset njegove braće;
Of the sons of Merari; Asaiah the chief, and his brothers 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 brothers an hundred and thirty:
8 Od Elisafanovih sinova: kneza Šemaju i dvjesta njegove braće.
Of the sons of Elizaphan; Shemaiah the chief, and his brothers two hundred:
9 Od Hebronovih sinova: kneza Eliela i osamdeset njegove braće;
Of the sons of Hebron; Eliel the chief, and his brothers fourscore:
10 od Uzielovih sinova: kneza Aminadaba i sto dvanaest njegove braće.
Of the sons of Uzziel; Amminadab the chief, and his brothers an 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 said to them, You are the chief of the fathers of the Levites: sanctify yourselves, both you and your brothers, that you may bring up the ark of the LORD 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 you did it not at the first, the LORD our God made a breach on 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 sanctified themselves to bring up the ark of the LORD 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 on their shoulders with the staves thereon, as Moses commanded according to the word of the LORD.
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 brothers to be the singers with instruments of music, psalteries and harps and cymbals, sounding, by 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.
So the Levites appointed Heman the son of Joel; and of his brothers, Asaph the son of Berechiah; and of the sons of Merari their brothers, 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 brothers of the second degree, Zechariah, Ben, and Jaaziel, and Shemiramoth, and Jehiel, and Unni, Eliab, and Benaiah, and Maaseiah, and Mattithiah, and Elipheleh, and Mikneiah, and Obededom, and Jeiel, the porters.
19 A pjevači, Heman, Asaf i Etan gromko su udarali u mjedene cimbale.
So the singers, Heman, Asaph, and Ethan, were appointed to sound 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 psalteries on Alamoth;
21 a Matitja, Eliflehu, Mikneja, Obed Edom, Jeiel i Azazja u citre, u osminskoj pratnji.
And Mattithiah, and Elipheleh, and Mikneiah, and Obededom, and Jeiel, and Azaziah, with harps on the Sheminith to excel.
22 Kenanja, knez onih levita koji su nosili Kovčeg, upravljao je prenošenjem jer je bio vješt u tome.
And Chenaniah, chief of the Levites, was for song: he instructed about the song, because he was skillful.
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, did blow with the trumpets before the ark of God: and Obededom and Jehiah 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.
So David, and the elders of Israel, and the captains over thousands, went to bring up the ark of the covenant of the LORD out of the house of Obededom 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 the LORD, that they offered 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 fine linen, and all the Levites that bore the ark, and the singers, and Chenaniah the master of the song with the singers: David also had on him an ephod of linen.
28 Tako je sav Izrael prenosio gore Kovčeg saveza Jahvina, radosno kličući uz jeku rogova, truba i cimbala, igrajući uza zvuke harfe i citre.
Thus all Israel brought up the ark of the covenant of the LORD with shouting, and with sound of the cornet, and with trumpets, and with cymbals, making a noise with psalteries 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 the LORD came to the city of David, that Michal, the daughter of Saul looking out at a window saw king David dancing and playing: and she despised him in her heart.
