1 Chronicles 15
1 And David made houses for himself in the town of David; and he got ready a place for the ark of God, and put up a tent for it.
Daudi aarĩkia gwaka nyũmba ciake mwene kũu Itũũra Inene rĩa Daudi, nĩahaarĩirie handũ ha kũiga ithandũkũ rĩa Ngai, na akĩrĩambĩra hema.
2 Then David said, The ark of God may not be moved by any but the Levites, for they have been marked out by God to take the ark of God, and to do his work for ever.
Ningĩ Daudi akiuga atĩrĩ, “Gũtirĩ mũndũ ũngĩ wagĩrĩirwo nĩ gũkuua ithandũkũ rĩa Ngai tiga o Alawii, tondũ nĩo Jehova aathuurire makuuage ithandũkũ rĩu rĩa Jehova na mamũtungatagĩre nginya tene.”
3 And David made all Israel come together at Jerusalem, to take the ark of the Lord to its place, which he had got ready for it.
Daudi nĩacookanĩrĩirie andũ othe a Isiraeli hamwe kũu Jerusalemu nĩguo marehe ithandũkũ rĩa Jehova handũ harĩa aarĩthondekeire.
4 And David got together the sons of Aaron, and the Levites;
Nĩacookanĩrĩirie njiaro cia Harũni na Alawii ta ũũ:
5 Of the sons of Kohath: Uriel the chief, and his brothers, a hundred and twenty;
Kuuma kũrĩ njiaro cia Kohathu, Urieli nĩwe warĩ mũtongoria, na andũ a nyũmba yao 120;
6 Of the sons of Merari: Asaiah the chief, and his brothers, two hundred and twenty;
kuuma kũrĩ njiaro cia Merari, Asaia nĩwe warĩ mũtongoria, na andũ a nyũmba yao 220;
7 Of the sons of Gershom: Joel the chief, and his brothers, a hundred and thirty;
kuuma kũrĩ njiaro cia Gerishoni, Joeli nĩwe warĩ mũtongoria, na andũ a nyũmba yao 130;
8 Of the sons of Elizaphan: Shemaiah the chief, and his brothers, two hundred;
kuuma kũrĩ njiaro cia Elizafani, Shemaia nĩwe warĩ mũtongoria, na andũ a nyũmba yao 200;
9 Of the sons of Hebron: Eliel the chief, and his brothers, eighty;
kuuma kũrĩ njiaro cia Hebironi, Elieli nĩwe warĩ mũtongoria, na andũ a nyũmba yao 80;
10 Of the sons of Uzziel: Amminadab the chief, and his brothers, a hundred and twelve.
kuuma kũrĩ njiaro cia Uzieli, Aminadabu nĩwe warĩ mũtongoria, na andũ a nyũmba yao 112.
11 And David sent for Zadok and Abiathar the priests, and for the Levites, Uriel, Asaiah and Joel, Shemaiah and Eliel and Amminadab,
Ningĩ Daudi agĩĩta Zadoku na Abiatharu arĩa athĩnjĩri-Ngai, na Urieli, na Asaia, na Joeli, na Shemaia, na Elieli, na Aminadabu arĩa Alawii.
12 And said to them, You are the heads of the families of the Levites: make yourselves holy, you and your brothers, so that you may take the ark of the Lord, the God of Israel, to the place which I have made ready for it.
Akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Nĩ inyuĩ anene a nyũmba cia Alawii; inyuĩ ene na Alawii arĩa angĩ no nginya mwĩtherie na mwambatie ithandũkũ rĩa Jehova Ngai wa Isiraeli nginya handũ harĩa ndĩrĩthondekeire.
13 For because you did not take it at the first, the Lord our God sent punishment on us, because we did not get directions from him in the right way.
Nĩ ũndũ inyuĩ, Alawii, mũtiarĩambatirie ihinda rĩa mbere, nĩkĩo Jehova Ngai witũ aatũũkĩrĩire na marakara. Tũtiigana gũtuĩria ũhoro wa ũrĩa tũngĩekire kũrĩ we, kũringana na ũrĩa gwatuĩtwo.”
14 So the priests and the Levites made themselves holy to take up the ark of the Lord, the God of Israel.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, athĩnjĩri-Ngai na Alawii magĩĩtheria nĩgeetha maambatie ithandũkũ rĩa Jehova, Ngai wa Isiraeli.
15 And the sons of the Levites took up the ark of God, lifting it by its rods, as the Lord had said to Moses.
Nao Alawii magĩkuua ithandũkũ rĩa Ngai na mĩtĩ mĩraaya mamĩigĩrĩire ciande, o ta ũrĩa Musa aathanĩte kũringana na kiugo kĩa Jehova.
16 And David gave orders to the chief of the Levites to put their brothers the music-makers in position, with instruments of music, corded instruments and brass, with glad voices making sounds of joy.
Daudi akĩĩra atongoria a Alawii mathuure ariũ a ithe wao matuĩke aini, nao maine nyĩmbo cia gĩkeno makĩhũũraga inanda cia kĩnũbi, na cia mũgeeto, na thaani iria ihũũrithanagio ikagamba.
17 So 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, were put in position by the Levites;
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Alawii magĩthuura Hemani mũrũ wa Joeli; kuuma harĩ ariũ a ithe, na magĩthuura Asafu mũrũ wa Berekia; na kuuma harĩ ariũ a ithe Amerari magĩthuura Ethani mũrũ wa Kushaia;
18 And with them their brothers of the second order, Zechariah, Bani and Jaaziel and Shemiramoth and Jehiel and Unni, Eliab and Benaiah and Maaseiah and Mattithiah and Eliphelehu and Mikneiah, and Obed-edom and Jeiel, the door-keepers.
na ningĩ hamwe nao magĩthuura ariũ a ithe matuĩke anini ao wathani-inĩ. nao nĩ: Zekaria, na Jaazieli, na Shemiramothu, na Jehieli, na Uni, na Eliabu, na Benaia, na Maaseia, na Matithia, na Elifelehu, na Mikineia, na Obedi-Edomu, na Jeieli, arĩa arangĩri ihingo.
19 So those who made melody, Heman, Asaph, and Ethan, were put in position, with brass instruments, sounding loudly;
Hemani, na Asafu na Ethani maarĩ aini na maahũũrithanagia thaani cia gĩcango;
20 And Zechariah and Aziel and Shemiramoth and Jehiel, Unni and Eliab and Maaseiah and Benaiah, with corded instruments put to Alamoth.
Zekaria, na Azieli, na Shemiramothu, na Jehieli, na Uni, na Eliabu, na Maaseia, na Benaia maarĩ a kũhũũra inanda cia kĩnũbi, kũringana na Alamothu.
21 And Mattithiah and Eliphelehu and Mikneiah and Obed-edom and Jeiel and Azaziah, with corded instruments on the octave, to give the first note of the song.
Nake Matithia, na Elifelehu, na Mikineia, na Obedi-Edomu, na Jeieli, na Azazia maarĩ a kũhũũra inanda cia mũgeeto, matongoretie kũringana na Sheminithu (ũguo nĩ ta kuuga mũgambo ũkũruruma).
22 And Chenaniah, chief of the Levites, was master of the music: he gave directions about the song, because he was expert.
Kenania ũrĩa mũtongoria wa Alawii nĩwe warũgamĩrĩire ũini; ũcio nĩguo warĩ wĩra wake tondũ aarĩ na ũũgĩ wa guo.
23 And Berechiah and Elkanah were door-keepers for the ark.
Berekia na Elikana nĩo maarĩ a kũrangĩra mĩrango nĩ ũndũ wa ithandũkũ rĩu.
24 And Shebaniah and Joshaphat and Nethanel and Amasai and Zechariah and Benaiah and Eliezer, the priests, made music on the horns before the ark of God; and Obed-edom and Jehiah were door-keepers for the ark.
Athĩnjĩri-Ngai, nĩo Shebania, na Joshafatu, na Nethaneli, na Amasai, na Zekaria, na Benaia, na Eliezeri maarĩ a kũhuha tũrumbeta mbere ya ithandũkũ rĩa Ngai. Obedi-Edomu na Jehia o nao maarĩ arangĩri a mĩrango nĩ ũndũ wa ithandũkũ rĩu.
25 So David, and the responsible men of Israel, and the captains over thousands, went with joy to get the ark of the agreement of the Lord out of the house of Obed-edom.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Daudi na athuuri a Isiraeli, na anene a ikundi cia ngiri, magĩthiĩ kwambatia ithandũkũ rĩa kĩrĩkanĩro kĩa Jehova kuuma nyũmba ya Obedi-Edomu makenete.
26 And when God gave help to the Levites who were lifting up the ark of the agreement of the Lord, they made an offering of seven oxen and seven sheep.
Tondũ Ngai nĩateithĩtie Alawii arĩa maakuuaga ithandũkũ rĩa kĩrĩkanĩro kĩa Jehova-rĩ, ndegwa mũgwanja na ndũrũme mũgwanja nĩciarutirwo igongona.
27 And David was clothed with a robe of fair linen, as were all the Levites who took up the ark, and those who made melody, and Chenaniah the master of those who made melody; and David had on a linen ephod;
Hĩndĩ ĩyo Daudi eehumbĩte nguo ya igũrũ ndaaya ya gatani ĩrĩa njega, na noguo Alawii othe arĩa makuuĩte ithandũkũ rĩu mehumbĩte, o na aini na Kenania ũrĩa warĩ mũtongoria wa ũini. O na ningĩ Daudi nĩehumbĩte ebodi ya gatani.
28 So all Israel took up the ark of the agreement of the Lord, with loud cries and with horns and brass and corded instruments sounding loudly.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio andũ othe a Isiraeli makĩambatia ithandũkũ rĩa kĩrĩkanĩro kĩa Jehova makĩanagĩrĩra, makĩhuhaga macoro na tũrumbeta, na makĩhũũrithanagia thaani iria ihũũrithanagio na ikagamba, na makĩhũũraga inanda cia kĩnũbi na cia mũgeeto.
29 And when the ark of the agreement of the Lord came into the town of David, Michal, the daughter of Saul, looking out of the window, saw King David dancing and playing; and to her mind he seemed foolish.
Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa ithandũkũ rĩa kĩrĩkanĩro kĩa Jehova rĩatoonyaga Itũũra Inene rĩa Daudi-rĩ, Mikali mwarĩ wa Saũlũ nĩacũthĩrĩirie arĩ ndirica-inĩ. Na rĩrĩa onire Mũthamaki Daudi akĩina akĩrũgarũgaga, akĩmũnyarara ngoro-inĩ yake.
