1 Chronicles 13
1 Then David conferred with all his leaders, the commanders of hundreds and of thousands.
茲にダビデ千人の長百人の長などの諸將とあひ議り
2 And he said to the whole assembly of Israel, “If it seems good to you, and if this is of the LORD our God, let us send word far and wide to the rest of our brothers in all the land of Israel, and also to the priests and Levites in their cities and pasturelands, so that they may join us.
而してダビデ、イスラエルの全會衆に言けるは汝らもし之を善とし我らの神ヱホバこれを允したまはば我ら徧く人を遣してイスラエルの各地に留まれる我らの兄弟ならびにその諸郊地の邑々にをる祭司とレビ人とに至らせ之をして我らの所に集まらしめん
3 Then let us bring back the ark of our God, for we did not inquire of Him in the days of Saul.”
而して我らまた我らの神の契約の櫃を我らの所に移さんサウルの世には我ら之に就て詢ことをせざりしなりと
4 And because this proposal seemed right to all the people, the whole assembly agreed to it.
會衆みな然すべしと言り其は民みな此事を善と觀たればなり
5 So David assembled all Israel, from the River Shihor in Egypt to Lebo-hamath, to bring the ark of God from Kiriath-jearim.
是においてダピデはキリアテヤリムより神の契約の櫃を舁きたらんとてエジプトのジホルよりハマテの入口までのイスラエル人をことごとく召あつめ
6 David and all Israel went up to Baalah of Judah (that is, Kiriath-jearim) to bring up from there the ark of God the LORD, who is enthroned between the cherubim—the ark that is called by the Name.
而してダビデ、イスラエルの一切の人とともにバアラといふユダのキリアテヤリムに上り往きケルビムの上に坐したまふヱホバ神の名をもて稱らるる契約の櫃を其處より舁のぼらんとし
7 So they carried the ark of God from the house of Abinadab on a new cart, with Uzzah and Ahio guiding the cart.
乃ち神の契約の櫃を新しき車に載てアビナダブの家より牽いだしウザとアヒオその車を御せり
8 David and all the Israelites were celebrating before God with all their might, with songs and on harps and lyres, with tambourines, cymbals, and trumpets.
ダビデおよびイスラエルの人はみな歌と琴と瑟と鼗鼓と鐃鈸と喇叭などを以て力をきはめ歌をうたひて神の前に踊れり
9 When they came to the threshing floor of Chidon, Uzzah reached out and took hold of the ark, because the oxen had stumbled.
かくてキドンの禾場に至れる時ウザ手を神の契約の櫃に伸してこれを扶へたり其は牛これを振たればなり
10 And the anger of the LORD burned against Uzzah, and He struck him down because he had put his hand on the ark. So he died there before God.
ウザその手を伸て契約の櫃につけたるによりてヱホバこれに向ひて忿怒を發してこれを撃たまびければ其處にて神の前に死り
11 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.
ヱホバ、ウザを撃たまひしに因てダビデ怒れり其處は今日までペレヅウザ(ウザ撃)と稱へらる
12 That day David feared God and asked, “How can I ever bring the ark of God to me?”
その日ダビデ神を畏れて言り我なんぞ神の契約の櫃を我所に舁ゆくべけんやと
13 So he did not move the ark with him to the City of David; instead, he took it aside to the house of Obed-edom the Gittite.
ダビデその契約の櫃を己のところダビデの城邑にうつさず之を轉らしてガテ人オベデエドムの家に舁いらしめたり
14 Thus the ark of God remained with the family of Obed-edom in his house for three months, and the LORD blessed his household and everything he owned.
神の契約の櫃オベデエドムの家にありて其家族とともにおかかるること三月なりきヱホバ、オベデエドムの家とその一切の所有を祝福たまへり
