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.
Mgbe Devid wuchara ụlọ obibi ya nʼobodo Devid, o doziri ebe a ga-adọsa igbe ọgbụgba ndụ Chineke. Ọ mara ụlọ ikwu maka ya.
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.
Devid kwuru sị, “O nweghị onye ọbụla ga-ebu igbe Chineke karịakwa ndị Livayị, nʼihi na Onyenwe anyị họpụtara ha ibu igbe Onyenwe anyị na ije ozi nʼihu Onyenwe anyị ruo mgbe ebighị ebi.”
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.
Ya mere, Devid kpọkọtara ndị Izrel niile, na Jerusalem ibubata igbe Onyenwe anyị nʼebe ahụ ọ kwadoro na a ga-adọsa ya.
4 And David got together the sons of Aaron, and the Levites;
Ọ kpọkọtara ụmụ Erọn na ndị Livayị:
5 Of the sons of Kohath: Uriel the chief, and his brothers, a hundred and twenty;
Ndị Kohat na ụmụnna ha dị otu narị na iri abụọ. Uriel bụ onyeisi ha.
6 Of the sons of Merari: Asaiah the chief, and his brothers, two hundred and twenty;
Ụmụ Merari na ụmụnna ha dị narị abụọ na iri abụọ. Asaya bụ onyeisi ha.
7 Of the sons of Gershom: Joel the chief, and his brothers, a hundred and thirty;
Ụmụ Geshọm na ụmụnna ha dị otu narị na iri atọ. Juel bụ onyeisi ha.
8 Of the sons of Elizaphan: Shemaiah the chief, and his brothers, two hundred;
Ụmụ Elizafan na ụmụnna ha dị narị abụọ. Shemaya bụ onyeisi ha.
9 Of the sons of Hebron: Eliel the chief, and his brothers, eighty;
Ụmụ Hebrọn na ụmụnna ha dị iri asatọ. Eliel bụ onyeisi ha.
10 Of the sons of Uzziel: Amminadab the chief, and his brothers, a hundred and twelve.
Ụmụ Uziel na ụmụnna ha dị otu narị na iri na abụọ. Aminadab bụ onyeisi ha.
11 And David sent for Zadok and Abiathar the priests, and for the Levites, Uriel, Asaiah and Joel, Shemaiah and Eliel and Amminadab,
Devid kpọrọ Zadọk na Abịata, ndị nchụaja na Uriel, Asaya, Juel, Shemaya, Eliel, na Aminadab ndị Livayị sị ha,
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.
“Unu bụ ndịisi ezinaụlọ dị iche iche, nʼebo Livayị. Doonụ onwe unu nsọ unu na ụmụnna unu ibulata igbe ọgbụgba ndụ Onyenwe anyị, Chineke Izrel nʼebe a m doziri nʼihi ya.
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.
Na mbụ, Onyenwe anyị Chineke tara anyị ahụhụ nʼihi na anyị esoghị omenaala ime ka unu bụ ndị Livayị buru ya. Anyị ajụtaghị ya ase otu a ga-esi bulata ya nʼụzọ o kwesiri.”
14 So the priests and the Levites made themselves holy to take up the ark of the Lord, the God of Israel.
Ya mere, ndị nchụaja na ndị Livayị mezuru omenaala ido onwe ha nsọ maka ibulata igbe ọgbụgba ndụ Onyenwe anyị, Chineke Izrel ahụ.
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.
Ndị Livayị jiri osisi ogologo buru igbe Chineke ahụ nʼisi ubu aka ha dịka Mosis nyere nʼiwu nʼusoro dịka okwu Onyenwe anyị si dị.
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.
Devid nyekwara ndị ndu Livayị iwu sị ka ha họpụta site nʼetiti ụmụnna ha ndị abụ na ndị egwu, ndị ga-abụ abụ ọṅụ, nke ya na ngwa egwu ndị a ga-eso: ụbọ akwara, une na ogene.
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;
Ndị Livayị họpụtara Heman nwa Juel; ma site nʼetiti ụmụnna Juel ha họpụtara Asaf, nwa Berekaya. Sitekwa nʼetiti ụmụnna ha ndị Merari ha họpụtara Etan nwa Kushaya,
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.
tinyere ndị a, ha họpụtara ụmụnna ha ndị a, ndị na-esote ha nʼọkwa: Zekaraya, Jaaziel, Shemiramot, Jehiel, Unni, Eliab, Benaya, Maaseia, Matitaia, Elifelehu, Mikneya, Obed-Edọm na Jeiel bụ ndị na-eche ọnụ ụzọ.
19 So those who made melody, Heman, Asaph, and Ethan, were put in position, with brass instruments, sounding loudly;
Heman, Asaf na Etan ka a họpụtara maka ịkụ ogene bronz.
20 And Zechariah and Aziel and Shemiramoth and Jehiel, Unni and Eliab and Maaseiah and Benaiah, with corded instruments put to Alamoth.
Zekaraya na Aziel, Shemiramot, Jehiel, Unni, Eliab, Maaseia na Benaya bụ ndị na-akpọ ụbọ akwara dịka usoro abụ alamot, si dị
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.
Matitaia, Elifelehu, Mikneya, Obed-Edọm, Jeiel na Azazaya bụkwa ndị na-akpọ une dịka usoro abụ Sheminit si dị.
22 And Chenaniah, chief of the Levites, was master of the music: he gave directions about the song, because he was expert.
Onyeisi ndị na-abụ abụ a họpụtara bụ Kenaniya, onye bụkwa onyeisi ndị Livayị. A họpụtara ya nʼihi na ọ bụ onye nwere nghọta banyere abụ.
23 And Berechiah and Elkanah were door-keepers for the ark.
Berekaya na Elkena bụ ndị na-eche ọnụ ụzọ ebe igbe ahụ dị.
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.
Shebanaya, Joshafat, Netanel, Amasai, Zekaraya, Benaya na Elieza, ndị bụ ndị nchụaja bụ ndị na-afụ opi nʼihu igbe ọgbụgba ndụ Chineke. Obed-Edọm na Jehaya ga-esokwa ndị ga-eche ọnụ ụzọ ebe igbe ahụ dị nche.
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.
Devid na ndị okenye Izrel, na ndịisi agha na-achị puku ndị agha, ji oke ọṅụ gaa nʼụlọ Obed-Edọm nʼihi ibugote igbe ọgbụgba ndụ Onyenwe anyị ahụ.
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.
Nʼihi na Chineke nyeere ndị Livayị na-ebu igbe ọgbụgba ndụ Onyenwe anyị aka, ọ bụ oke ehi asaa na ebule asaa ka a chụrụ nʼaja.
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;
Ọ bụ ezi akwa ọcha ka e ji kee Devid ekike, dịka ndị Livayị niile bụ ndị bu igbe ọgbụgba ndụ ahụ, na ndị ọbụ abụ, na Kenaniya, bụ onyeisi otu ndị na-abụ abụ yi akwa ọcha nʼahụ ha. Devid yikwa uwe efọọd e ji akwa ọcha dụọ.
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.
Ya mere, ndị Izrel niile ji iti mkpu, na-ịfụ opi mpi ebule na-ịfụ opi ike, ịkpọ ụbọ akwara, ịkụ ogene na une, bulata igbe ọgbụgba ndụ Onyenwe anyị.
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.
Mgbe ha bu igbe ọgbụgba ndụ Onyenwe anyị na-abata nʼobodo Devid, Mikal nwa Sọl, lepụrụ anya site na oghereikuku ụlọ. Mgbe ọ hụrụ eze Devid ka ọ na-ayọrị egwu na-aṅụrị ọṅụ, o ledara ya anya nʼime obi ya.
