2 Samuel 6
1 David again assembled the chosen men of Israel, thirty thousand in all.
Davide anasonkhanitsanso pamodzi ankhondo 3,000 osankhidwa pakati pa Aisraeli.
2 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.
Iye pamodzi ndi ankhondo ake onse anapita ku Baalahi ku Yuda kukatenga Bokosi la Chipangano la Mulungu, limene limadziwika ndi Dzina lake, dzina la Yehova Wamphamvuzonse, amene amakhala pakati pa Akerubi amene ali pa Bokosi la Chipanganolo.
3 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,
Iwo anayika Bokosi la Mulungu pa ngolo yatsopano nachoka nalo ku nyumba ya Abinadabu, imene inali pa phiri. Uza ndi Ahiyo ana a Abinadabu ndiwo ankayendetsa ngolo yatsopanoyo,
4 bringing with it the ark of God. And Ahio was walking in front of the ark.
imene inanyamula Bokosi la Mulungu, ndipo Ahiyo mwana wa Abinadabu ankayenda patsogolo pake.
5 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.
Davide pamodzi ndi Aisraeli onse ankakondwerera ndi mphamvu zawo zonse pamaso pa Yehova poyimba nyimbo pogwiritsa ntchito azeze, apangwe, matambolini, maseche ndi malipenga.
6 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.
Atafika pa malo opunthira tirigu a Nakoni, Uza anatambalitsa dzanja lake kuti agwire Bokosi la Mulungu, chifukwa ngʼombe zinkafuna kugwa.
7 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.
Yehova anapsera mtima Uza chifukwa chochita chinthu chosayenera kuchitika. Choncho Mulungu anamukantha ndipo anafera pomwepo pambali pa Bokosi la Mulungulo.
8 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.
Ndipo Davide anakhumudwa chifukwa Yehova anakantha Uza ndipo mpaka lero malowo amatchedwa Perezi Uza.
9 That day David feared the LORD and asked, “How can the ark of the LORD ever come to me?”
Tsiku limenelo Davide anachita mantha ndi Yehova ndipo anati, “Kodi Bokosi la Yehova lingafike bwanji kwathu?”
10 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.
Iye sanafunenso kubwera ndi Bokosi la Yehova kawo ku mzinda wake wa Davide. Mʼmalo mwake anapita nalo ku nyumba ya Obedi-Edomu Mgiti.
11 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.
Bokosi la Yehova linakhala mʼnyumba ya Obedi-Edomu Mgiti kwa miyezi itatu, ndipo Yehova anamudalitsa kwambiri iyeyo ndi banja lake lonse.
12 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.
Tsono Mfumu Davide anawuzidwa kuti, “Yehova wadalitsa nyumba ya Obedi-Edomu ndi zonse zimene ali nazo, chifukwa cha Bokosi la Mulungu.” Choncho Davide anapita kukatenga Bokosi la Mulungu ku nyumba ya Obedi-Edomu ndi kupita nalo ku mzinda wa Davide akukondwera kwambiri.
13 When those carrying the ark of the LORD had advanced six paces, he sacrificed an ox and a fattened calf.
Anthu amene ananyamula Bokosi la Yehova ankati akayenda mapazi asanu ndi limodzi, iye ankapereka nsembe ngʼombe yayimuna ndi mwana wangʼombe wonenepa.
14 And David, wearing a linen ephod, danced with all his might before the LORD,
Davide ankavina ndi mphamvu zake zonse pamaso pa Yehova atavala efodi ya nsalu yofewa yosalala,
15 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.
pamene iyeyo pamodzi ndi Aisraeli onse ankabwera ndi Bokosi la Yehova, akufuwula ndi kuyimba malipenga.
16 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.
Bokosi la Yehova likulowa mu Mzinda wa Davide, Mikala mwana wamkazi wa Sauli ankaona ali pa zenera. Ndipo ataona Mfumu Davide ikulumpha ndi kuvina pamaso pa Yehova, ankamunyogodola mu mtima mwake.
17 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.
Iwo anabwera nalo Bokosi la Yehova ndipo analiyika pamalo pake mʼkati mwa tenti imene Davide anayimika ndipo Davideyo anapereka nsembe zopsereza ndi nsembe zachiyanjano pamaso pa Yehova.
18 When David had finished sacrificing the burnt offerings and peace offerings, he blessed the people in the name of the LORD of Hosts.
Atatsiriza kupereka nsembe zopsereza ndi nsembe zachiyanjano, iye anadalitsa anthu mʼdzina la Yehova Wamphamvuzonse.
19 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.
Kenaka iye anagawira Aisraeli onsewo, aamuna ndi aakazi, aliyense buledi mmodzi, nthuli yanyama, ndiponso keke yamphesa zowuma. Ndipo anthu onse anachokapo, napita aliyense ku nyumba kwake.
20 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.”
Davide atabwerera ku nyumba kwake kukadalitsa banja lake, Mikala mwana wamkazi wa Sauli anatuluka kudzakumana naye ndipo anati, “Kodi mfumu ya Israeli ingatero kudzilemekeza kwake lero, kudzithyolathyola pamaso pa akapolo aakazi, antchito ake ngati munthu wamba.”
21 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,
Davide anamuyankha Mikala kuti, “Ndachita zimenezi molemekeza Yehova, amene anandisankha ine kupambana abambo ako, kapenanso kupambana banja la abambo ako. Ndipo anandisankha kuti ndikhale wolamulira Aisraeli, anthu a Yehova. Nʼchifukwa chake ndidzasangalalabe pamaso pa Yehova.
22 and I will humiliate and humble myself even more than this. Yet I will be honored by the maidservants of whom you have spoken.”
Ineyo ndidzadzinyoza kuposa apa, ndipo ndidzakhala wonyozeka mʼmaso mwako. Koma pakati pa akapolo aakazi awa amene umanena za iwo, ndidzalemekezedwa.”
23 And Michal the daughter of Saul had no children to the day of her death.
Ndipo Mikala mwana wa Sauli sanakhalenso ndi mwana mpaka anamwalira.
