< 2 Samuel 6 >

1 Daudi ne ochako okelo jo-Israel kamoro achiel, chwo moyier, maromo alufu piero adek.
And David again gathered all the young men of Israel, about seventy thousand.
2 En kod joge duto ne nodhi Baala e piny Juda mondo giom Sandug Muma mar Nyasaye kuno, miluongo gi nying Jehova Nyasaye Maratego, mobet e kind kerubi manie Sandug Muma.
And David arose, and went, he and all the people that were with him, and some of the rulers of Juda, on an expedition [to a distant place], to bring back thence the ark of God, on which the name of the Lord of Host who dwells between the cherubs upon it is called.
3 Negiketo Sandug Muma mar Nyasaye e gari manyien mine gigole e od Abinadab, mane ni ewi got. Uza gi Ahio, ma gin yawuot Abinadab, ema ne chiko gari manyien
And they put the ark of the Lord on a new waggon, and took it out of the house of Aminadab who lived on the hill, and Oza and his brethren the sons of Aminadab drove the waggon with the ark.
4 mane otingʼo Sandug Muma mar Nyasaye, kendo Ahio ne wuotho e nyime.
And his brethren went before the ark.
5 Daudi kod dhood Israel duto ne miel gi tekregi duto e nyim Jehova Nyasaye ka giwer gi thumbe gi nyatiti gi orutu gi oyieke gi kayamba gi nyiduonge.
And David and the children of Israel [were] playing before the Lord on well-tuned instruments mightily, and with songs, and with harps, and with lutes, and with drums, and with cymbals, and with pipes.
6 Kane gichopo kar dino mar Nakon, Uza notero lwete mosiro Sandug Muma mar Nyasaye nimar rwedhi nochwanyore.
And they come as far as the threshing floor of Nachor: and Oza reached forth his hand to the ark of God to keep it steady, and took hold of it; for the ox shook it out of its place.
7 To mirimb Jehova Nyasaye ne ger gi Uza nikech tim mane otimo ma ok ber omiyo Nyasaye nogoye motho but Sandug Muma mar Nyasaye.
And the Lord was very angry with Oza; and God smote him there: and he died there by the ark of the Lord before God.
8 Daudi nokecho nikech mirima mager mar Jehova Nyasaye nomwomore kuom Uza, omiyo nochak kanyo ni Perez Uza, nying ma pod iluongogo kanyo nyaka chil kawuono.
And David was dispirited because the Lord made a breach upon Oza; and that place was called the breach of Oza until this day.
9 Luoro nomako Daudi chiengʼno nikech Jehova Nyasaye, mopenjo niya, “Ere kaka Sandug Muma mar Jehova Nyasaye dikel ira?”
And David feared the Lord in that day, saying, How shall the ark of the Lord come in to me?
10 Ne ok oyie mondo okaw Sandug Muma mar Jehova Nyasaye odhigo e Dala Maduongʼ mar Daudi. Kar timo mano to nobaro motere e od Obed-Edom ja-Giti.
And David would not bring in the ark of the covenant of the Lord to himself into the city of David: and David turned it aside into the house of Abeddara the Gethite.
11 Sandug Muma mar Jehova Nyasaye ne owe e od Obed-Edom ja-Giti kuom dweche adek, kendo Jehova Nyasaye nogwedhe gi ode duto.
And the ark of the Lord lodged in the house of Abeddara the Gethite three months, and the Lord blessed all the house of Abeddara, and all his possessions.
12 Eka nowacho ni Ruoth Daudi niya, “Jehova Nyasaye osegwedho od Obed-Edom gi gige duto nikech Sandug Muma mar Nyasaye.” Omiyo Daudi nolor mwalo kodhi e od Obed-Edom mondo oom Sandug Muma mar Nyasaye, mine okele e Dala Maduongʼ mar Daudi gi mor.
And it was reported to king David, saying, The Lord has blessed the house of Abeddara, and all that he has, because of the ark of the Lord. And David went, and brought up the Ark of the Lord from the house of Abeddara to the city of David with gladness.
13 Kane joma otingʼo Sandug Muma mar Jehova Nyasaye ogoyo ondamo auchiel, notimo misango gi rwath gi nyaroya machwe.
And there were with him bearing the ark seven bands, and for a sacrifice a calf and lambs.
14 Daudi, korwako law mayom mar dolo miluongo ni efod, nomiel aduwa e nyim Jehova Nyasaye gi tekre duto,
And David sounded with well-tuned instruments before the Lord, and David [was] clothed with a fine long robe.
15 e kinde ma en kaachiel gi dhood Israel duto, nokelo Sandug Muma mar Jehova Nyasaye gi mahu ka igoyo tungʼ.
And David and all the house of Israel brought up the ark of the Lord with shouting, and with the sound of a trumpet.
16 E kinde mane Sandug Muma mar Jehova Nyasaye donjo e Dala Maduongʼ mar Daudi, Mikal nyar Saulo nongʼicho gie dirisa. Kendo kane oneno Ruoth Daudi kachikore kendo miel aduwa e nyim Jehova Nyasaye, nochaye gi chunye.
And it came to pass as the ark arrived at the city of David, that Melchol the daughter of Saul looked through the window, and saw king David dancing and playing before the Lord; and she despised him in her heart.
17 Negikelo Sandug Muma mar Jehova Nyasaye mi gikete kare ei hema mane Daudi osegurone, kendo Daudi notimo misango miwangʼo pep gi misengini mag lalruok michiwo e nyim Jehova Nyasaye.
And they bring the ark of the Lord, and set it in its place in the midst of the tabernacle which David pitched for it: and David offered whole-burnt-offerings before the Lord, [and] peace-offerings.
18 Bangʼ kane osetieko timo misango miwangʼo pep gi misengini mag lalruok, nogwedho ji e nying Jehova Nyasaye Maratego.
And David made an end of offering the whole-burnt-offerings and peace-offerings, and blessed the people in the name of the Lord of Hosts.
19 Eka nomiyo oganda Israel duto chwo gi mon, ngʼato ka ngʼato, makati gi olembe mongʼin. Kendo ji duto nodok miechgi.
And he distributed to all the people, even to all the host of Israel from Dan to Bersabee, both men and women, to every one a cake of bread, and a joint of meat, and a cake from the frying-pan: and all the people departed every one to his home.
20 Kane Daudi odok dala mondo ogwedh joode, Mikal nyar Saulo nowuok mondo oromne mowachone niya, “Mano kaka ruodh Israel nomiyore duongʼ kawuono koelore duk e nyim wasumbini ma nyiri mag jotije mana kaka dhano adhana nyalo timo!”
And David returned to bless his house. And Melchol the daughter of Saul came out to meet David and saluted him, and said, How was the king of Israel glorified to-day, who was to-day uncovered in the eyes of the handmaids of his servants, as one of the dancers wantonly uncovers himself!
21 Daudi nowacho ni Mikal niya, “Ne atime e nyim Jehova Nyasaye, mane oyiera kar yiero wuonu kata ngʼato moa e dhoode kane oketa mondo atel ni oganda Jehova Nyasaye ma en Israel, abiro tugo kamiel e nyim Jehova Nyasaye.
And David said to Melchol, I will dance before the Lord. Blessed [be] the Lord who chose me before thy father, and before all his house, to make me head over his people, even over Israel: therefore I will play, and dance before the Lord.
22 Abiro medo bedo mofuwo maloyo mae, bende abiro medo dwokora matin e wangʼa awuon. To wasumbini ma nyiri miwachogi, to biro miya duongʼ.”
And I will again uncover myself thus, and I will be vile in thine eyes, and with the maid-servants by whom thou saidst that I was not had in honour.
23 Kendo Mikal nyar Saulo ne ok onywolo nyithindo nyaka notho.
And Melchol the daughter of Saul had no child till the day of her death.
