< 1 Chronicles 13 >

1 Then David took counsel with the tribunes, and the centurions, and all the leaders.
Devit ni kahrawikungnaw pueng koe, 1, 000 kaukkungnaw hoi, 100 touh kaukkungnaw koe pouknae a hei.
2 And he said to the entire assembly of Israel: “If it pleases you, and if the words that I speak come from the Lord our God, let us send to the remainder of our brothers, in all the regions of Israel, and to the priests and Levites who live in the suburbs of the cities, so that they may gather to us.
Devit ni kamkhueng e Isarelnaw koe, ahawi na tet awh boilah, BAWIPA Cathut a ngainae awm pawiteh, Isarel ram thung e hmaunawngha kaawm e naw pueng, tengpam e kho kaawm e pueng, vaihmanaw hoi Levih taminaw hai maimouh koe cungtalah kamkhueng hanelah, coun awh sei atipouh.
3 And let us bring back the ark of our God to us. For we did not seek it during the days of Saul.”
Cathut e thingkong hah maimouh koe bankhai awh sei. Bangkongtetpawiteh, Sawl a bawi hoi teh, a lawkpui lah pouk awh hoeh toe telah ati.
4 And the entire multitude responded that it should be done. For the word had pleased all the people.
Kamkhueng e pueng ni hottelah sak e hah hnâ rip a bo khai. Bangkongtetpawiteh, hot teh tami pueng pouknae dawk ka kalan e doeh.
5 Therefore, David gathered all of Israel, from Shihor of Egypt even to the entrance of Hamath, so as to bring the ark of God from Kiriath-jearim.
Hatdawkvah, Devit ni Izip palang Shihor, hoi Hamath kâennae totouh Isarelnaw hah Kiriathjeaream e Cathut e thingkong hah bankhai hanelah a kamkhueng sak awh.
6 And David ascended with all the men of Israel to the hill of Kiriath-jearim, which is in Judah, so that he might bring from there the ark of the Lord God, sitting upon the Cherubim, where his name is invoked.
Hatdawkvah, Devit hoi tami pueng teh, Judah ram e Baalah Kiriath-Jeaream ati awh e koevah, cherubim dawkvah, ka tahung e BAWIPA min a onae lawkkam thing kong la hanelah a cei awh.
7 And they placed the ark of God upon a new cart from the house of Abinadab. Then Uzzah and his brother drove the cart.
Cathut e thingkong teh, Abinadab im e hah leng ka tha hoi a ceikhai awh. Uzzah hoi a hui ni leng teh a mawng.
8 Now David and all of Israel were playing before God, with all of their ability, in songs, and with harps, and psalteries, and timbrels, and cymbals, and trumpets.
Devit hoi Isarelnaw pueng ni la sak na laihoi ratoung hoi tamawi hoi mawngleng hoi cecak hoi mongka hoi Cathut hmalah a thaonae puenghoi a tumkhawng awh.
9 And when they had arrived at the threshing floor of Chidon, Uzzah reached out his hand, so that he might support the ark. For indeed, the ox being wanton had caused it to incline a little.
Kidron cangkatinnae koe a pha awh navah, maitonaw ni thingkong a kâhuet sak dawkvah, Uzzah ni thingkong hah kuet hanelah a kut a kâyap.
10 And so the Lord became angry against Uzzah. And he struck him down because he had touched the ark. And he died there before the Lord.
BAWIPA e lungkhueknae teh Uzzah tak dawk vai touh hoi a pha teh, thingkong a kuet kecu dawkvah a thei teh, Cathut hanlah a due.
11 And David was greatly saddened because the Lord had divided Uzzah. And he called that place ‘the Division of Uzzah,’ even to the present day.
Uzzah tak dawk BAWIPA e lungkhueknae a pha dawkvah, Devit teh a lungkhuek. Hote hmuen teh sahnin totouh Perezuzzah telah a phung awh.
12 And then he feared God, at that time, saying: “How will I be able to bring in the ark of God to myself?”
Hat na hnin hoi Devit ni Cathut teh a taki. Bangtelah hoi maw Cathut e thingkong teh ka bankhai thai han telah ati.
13 And for this reason, he did not bring it to himself, that is, into the City of David. Instead, he turned aside to the house of Obededom, the Gittite.
Devit ni thingkong teh Devit khopui a ma koe hrueng laipalah Git tami Obededom im vah a hruek.
14 Therefore, the ark of God dwelt in the house of Obededom for three months. And the Lord blessed his house and all that he had.
Cathut e thingkong teh Git tami Obededom imthung vah thapa yung thapa yung thum touh ao. Obededom e a tawn e naw pueng teh BAWIPA ni yawhawinae a poe.
