Chronicles I 15
1 And [David] made for himself houses in the city of David, and he prepared a place for the ark of God, and made a tent for it.
Ary Davida nanao trano ho azy tao an-Tanànan’ i Davida sady namboatra fitoerana sy nanorin-day ho an’ ny fiaran’ Andriamanitra.
2 Then said David, It is not [lawful for any] to bear the ark of God, but the Levites; for the Lord has chosen them to bear the ark of the Lord, and to minister to him for ever.
Ary tamin’ izay dia hoy Davida: Tsy misy tokony hitondra ny fiaran’ Andriamanitra afa-tsy ny Levita ihany, satria izy no efa nofidin’ i Jehovah hitondra ny fiaran’ Andriamanitra sy hanao fanompoam-pivavahana ho Azy mandrakizay.
3 And David assembled all Israel at Jerusalem, to bring up the ark of the Lord to the place which he [had] prepared for it.
Dia novorin’ i Davida tany Jerosalema ny Isiraely rehetra hampakatra ny fiaran’ i Jehovah ho any amin’ ny fitoerana izay namboariny ho azy.
4 And David gathered together the sons of Aaron the Levites.
Ary novorin’ i Davida ny taranak’ i Arona sy ny Levita:
5 Of the sons of Caath; [there was] Uriel the chief, and his brethren, a hundred and twenty.
tamin’ ny taranak’ i Kehata dia Oriela lehibeny sy ny rahalahiny roa-polo amby zato;
6 Of the sons of Merari; Asaia the chief, and his brethren, two hundred and twenty.
tamin’ ny taranak’ i Merary dia Asaia lehibeny sy ny rahalahiny roa-polo amby roan-jato;
7 Of the sons of Gedson; Joel the chief, and his brethren, a hundred and thirty.
tamin’ ny taranak’ i Gersona dia Joela lehibeny sy ny rahalahiny telo-polo amby zato;
8 Of the sons of Elisaphat; Semei the chief, and his brethren, two hundred.
tamin’ ny taranak’ i Elizafana dia Semaia lehibeny sy ny rahalahiny roan-jato;
9 Of the sons of Chebrom; Eliel the chief, and his brethren eighty.
tamin’ ny taranak’ i Hebrona dia Eliala lehibeny sy ny rahalahiny valo-polo,
10 Of the sons of Oziel; Aminadab the chief, and his brethren a hundred and twelve.
tamin’ ny taranak’ i Oziela dia Aminadaba lehibeny sy ny rahalahiny roa ambin’ ny folo amby zato.
11 And David called Sadoc and Abiathar the priests, and the Levites, Uriel, Asaia, and Joel, and Semaia, and Eliel, and Aminadab,
Ary Davida niantso an’ i Zadoka sy Abiatara mpisorona sy ny Levita, dia Oriela sy Asaia sy Joela sy Semaia sy Eliala ary Aminadaba,
12 and said to them, Ye [are] the heads of the families of the Levites: sanctify yourselves, you and your brethren, and ye shall carry up the ark of the God of Israel, [to the place] which I have prepared for it.
ka nanao taminy hoe: Hianareo lohan’ ny fianakavian’ ny Levita, hamasino ny tenanareo, dia ianareo sy ny rahalahinareo, mba hampakaranareo ny fiaran’ i Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny Isiraely, ho ao amin’ ilay namboariko ho azy.
13 For because ye were not [ready] at the first, our God made a breach upon us, because we sought him not according to the ordinance.
Satria tsy ianareo no tamin’ ilay teo, dia nasian’ i Jehovah Andriamanitsika isika, fa tsy nitady Azy araka ny voadidy.
14 So the priests and the Levites sanctified themselves, to bring up the ark of the God of Israel.
Dia nanamasina ny tenany ny mpisorona sy ny Levita hampakatra ny fiaran’ i Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny Isiraely.
15 And the sons of the Levites took the ark of God, (as Moses commanded by the word of God according to the scripture) upon their shoulders with staves.
Ary ny Levita nilanja ny fiaran’ Andriamanitra tamin’ ny hazo, tahaka ny nandidian’ i Mosesy araka ny tenin’ i Jehovah.
16 And David said to the chiefs of the Levites, Set your brethren the singers with musical instruments, lutes, harps, and cymbals, to sound aloud with a voice of joy.
Ary ireo lehiben’ ny Levita dia nasain’ i Davida nanendry ny mpihira rahalahiny hitondra ny zava-maneno, dia ny valiha sy ny lokanga ary hampaneno ny kipantsona, mba hanandra-peo amin’ ny fifaliana.
17 So the Levites appointed Aeman the son of Joel; Asaph the son of Barachias [was one] of his brethren; and Aethan the son of Kisaeus was of the sons of Merari their brethren;
Ka dia notendren’ ny Levita Hemana, zanak’ i Joela; ary tamin’ ny rahalahiny dia Asafa, zanak’ i Berekia; ary tamin’ ny taranak’ i Merary rahalahiny dia Etana, zanak’ i Kosaia;
18 and with them their brethren of the second rank, Zacharias, and Oziel, and Semiramoth, and Jeiel, and Elioel, and Eliab, and Banaia, and Maasaia, and Matthathia, and Eliphena, and Makellia, and Abdedom, and Jeiel, and Ozias, the porters.
ary naman’ ireo ihany koa ny rahalahiny manarakaraka, dia Zakaria sy Bena sy Jaziela sy Semiramota sy Jehiela sy Ony sy Eliaba sy Benaia sy Mahaseia sy Matitia sy Elifeleho sy Mikneia sy Obed-edoma ary Jeiela, mpiandry varavarana.
19 And the singers, Aeman, Asaph, and Aethan, with brazen cymbals to make [a sound] to be heard.
Ary Hemana sy Asafa ary Etana mpihira dia nasaina nitondra kipantsona varahina hampanenoina.
20 Zacharias, and Oziel, Semiramoth, Jeiel, Oni, Eliab, Maasaeas, Banaeas, with lutes, on alaemoth.
Ary Zakaria sy Aziela sy Semiramota sy Jehiela sy Ony sy Eliaba sy Mahaseia sy Benaia no nasaina nitendry valiha tamin’ ny Alamota.
21 And Mattathias, and Eliphalu, and Makenia, and Abdedom, and Jeiel, and Ozias, with harps of Amasenith, to make a loud noise.
Ary Matitia sy Elifeleho sy Mikneia sy Obed-edoma sy Jeiela ary Azazia no nasaina nitendry ny lokanga tamin’ ny Seminita ho mpitarika.
22 And Chonenia chief of the Levites [was] master of the bands, because he was skilful.
Ary Kenania, lehiben’ ny Levita, no tonian’ ny fitondrana; ary nampianatra ny fitondrana izy, fa nahay.
23 And Barachia and Elcana [were] door-keepers of the ark.
Ary Berekia sy Elikana no mpiandry varavarana amin’ ny fiara.
24 And Somnia, and Josaphat, and Nathanael, and Amasai, and Zacharia, and Banaea, and Eliezer, the priests, were sounding with trumpets before the ark of God: and Abdedom and Jeia [were] door-keepers of the ark of God.
Ary Sebania sy Josafata sy Netanela sy Amasay sy Zakaria sy Benaia ary Eliezera, izay samy mpisorona, no nitsoka ny trompetra teo alohan’ ny fiaran’ Andriamanitra, ary Obed-edoma sy Jehia koa no mpiandry varavarana amin’ ny fiara.
25 So David, and the elders of Israel, and the captains of thousands, went to bring up the ark of the covenant from the house of Abdedom with gladness.
Ary Davida sy ny loholon’ ny Isiraely mbamin’ ny mpifehy arivo no nandeha hampakatra ny fiaran’ ny faneken’ i Jehovah avy tao an-tranon’ i Obed-edoma tamin’ ny fifaliana.
26 And it came to pass when God strengthened the Levites bearing the ark of the covenant of the Lord, that they sacrificed seven calves and seven rams.
Ary rehefa nomban’ Andriamanitra ny Levita izay nilanja ny fiaran’ ny faneken’ i Jehovah, dia namono vantotr’ ombilahy fito sy ondrilahy fito hatao fanatitra izy.
27 And David [was] girt with a fine linen robe, and all the Levites [who were] bearing the ark of the covenant of the Lord, and the singers, and Chonenias the master of the band of singers; also upon David [there was] a robe of fine linen.
Ary niakanjo akanjo rongony fotsy madinika Davida, ary niakanjo toy izany koa ny Levita rehetra izay nitondra ny fiara ary ny mpihira sy Kenania, tonian’ ny fitondrana, mbamin’ ny mpihira; ary Davida nisalotra efoda rongony fotsy koa.
28 And all Israel brought up the ark of the covenant of the Lord with shouting, and with the sound of a horn, and with trumpets, and with cymbals, playing loudly on lutes and harps.
Toy izany no nampakaran’ ny Isiraely rehetra ny fiaran’ ny faneken’ i Jehovah tamin’ ny fihobiana sy ny feon’ ny anjomara sy ny trompetra ary ny kipantsona sy tamin’ ny fitendrena ny valiha sy ny lokanga.
29 And the ark of the covenant of the Lord arrived, and came to the city of David; and Melchol the daughter of Saul looked down through the window, and saw king David dancing and playing: and she despised him in her heart.
Ary nony tonga tao an-Tanànan’ i Davida ny fiaran’ ny faneken’ i Jehovah, dia nitsirika teo am-baravarankely Mikala, zanakavavin’ i Saoly, ka nahita an’ i Davida mpanjaka nibitaka sy nitsinjaka; ka dia nikizaka azy tao am-pony izy.
