1 Chronicles 13
1 Then David had discussions with the captains of thousands and the captains of hundreds and with every chief.
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 David said to all the men of Israel who had come together there, If it seems good to you and if it is the purpose of the Lord our God, let us send to all the rest of our brothers, everywhere in the land of Israel, and to the priests and the Levites in their towns and the country round them, and get them to come together here to 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 And let us get back for ourselves the ark of our God: for in the days of Saul we did not go to it for directions.
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 all the people said they would do so, for it seemed right to them.
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 sent for all Israel to come together, from Shihor, the river of Egypt, as far as the way into Hamath, to get 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 And David went up, with all Israel, to Baalah, that is, to Kiriath-jearim in Judah, to get up from there the ark of God, over which the holy Name is named, the name of the Lord whose place is between the winged ones.
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 And they put the ark of God on a new cart, and took it out of the house of Abinadab; and Uzza and Ahio were the drivers of 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 Then David and all Israel made melody before God with all their strength, with songs and corded instruments of music, and with brass instruments and horns.
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 And when they came to the grain-floor of Chidon, Uzza put out his hand to keep the ark in its place, for the oxen were slipping.
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 wrath of the Lord, burning against Uzza, sent destruction on him because he had put his hand on the ark, and death came to him 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 And David was angry because of the Lord's outburst of wrath against Uzza, and he gave that place the name Perez-uzza, 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 And so great was David's fear of God that day, that he said, How may I let the ark of God come 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 David did not let the ark come back to him to the town of David, but had it turned away and put into 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 And the ark of God was in the house of Obed-edom for three months; and the Lord sent a blessing on the house of Obed-edom and on all he had.
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
