1 Chronicles 15
1 Also, he made houses for himself in the City of David. And built a place for the ark of God, and he set up a tent for it.
Devit ni Devit khopui vah ama hane im a sak teh Cathut e thingkong ao nahane hmuen hah a rakueng pouh teh lukkareiim a yap pouh.
2 Then David said: “It is illicit for anyone to carry the ark of God except the Levites, whom the Lord chose to carry it and to minister to himself, even unto eternity.”
Devit ni Cathut e thingkong heh Levihnaw hoeh laipalah teh, apinihai kâkayawn thai mahoeh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, Cathut e thingkong teh meng kâkayawt hane hoi a thaw ka tawk hanelah BAWIPA ni a rawi e naw doeh telah a ti.
3 And he gathered all of Israel in Jerusalem, so that the ark of God might be brought into its place, which he had prepared for it.
Devit ni BAWIPA e thing kong ta nahane a rakueng pouh e hmuen koevah, ceikhai hanelah Jerusalem vah Isarelnaw pueng a pâkhueng.
4 Certainly, there were both the sons of Aaron and the Levites:
Hatdawkvah, Devit ni Aron e casaknaw hoi Levih casaknaw hah a pâkhueng. awh.
5 From the sons of Kohath, Uriel was the leader, and his brothers were one hundred twenty.
Kohath e casaknaw thung kacuepoung e Uriel hoi a hmaunawngha 120 touh a pha
6 From the sons of Merari: Asaiah was the leader, and his brothers were two hundred twenty.

7 From the sons of Gershom: Joel was the leader, and his brothers were one hundred thirty.

8 From the sons of Elizaphan: Shemaiah was the leader, and his brothers were two hundred.

9 From the sons of Hebron: Eliel was the leader, and his brothers were eighty.

10 From the sons of Uzziel: Amminadab was the leader, and his brothers were one hundred twelve.
Uziel casaknaw thung dawk kacuepoung e Aminadab hoi a hmaunawnghanaw 112 touh a pha awh.
11 And David summoned the priests, Zadok and Abiathar, and the Levites: Uriel, Asaiah, Joel, Shemaiah, Eliel, and Amminadab.
Devit ni vaihma Zadok, Abiathar, Levih, Uriel, Asaiah, Joel, Shemaiah, Eliel, hoi Aminadab tinaw hai a kaw.
12 And he said to them: “You who are the leaders of the Levitical families, be sanctified with your brothers, and bring the ark of the Lord God of Israel to the place that has been prepared for it.
Nangmanaw teh Levihnaw thung dawk kacuepoung lah na o awh. Isarel BAWIPA Cathut e thingkong hah ka rakueng e hmuen koevah, thokhai hanelah nama hoi na hmaunawnghanaw kamthoung awh.
13 Otherwise, as it was before, when the Lord struck us because you were not present, so also it might be now, if we do what is illicit.”
Ahmaloe e dawk hai nangmouh ni na kâkayawt awh hoeh dawkvah BAWIPA Cathut ni mamouh dawk a lungkhueknae a pha sak. Bangkongtetpawiteh, amae lamthung patetlah sak hane hah ama koe pacei awh hoeh telah a ti.
14 Therefore, the priests and the Levites were sanctified, so that they might carry the ark of the Lord God of Israel.
Hatdawkvah, Isarel BAWIPA Cathut e thingkong hah kâkayawt hanelah vaihmanaw hoi Levihnaw hah a kamthoung awh.
15 And the sons of Levi took the ark of God, just as Moses had instructed, in accord with the word of the Lord, upon their shoulders by the bars.
BAWIPA kâpoe e Mosi ni a dei e patetlah Levihnaw ni a loung dawk hoi thingkong teh a kâkayawt awh.
16 And David spoke to the leaders of the Levites, so that they might appoint, from their brothers, singers with musical instruments, specifically, psalteries, and harps, and cymbals, so that a joyful noise might resound on high.
Devit ni Levih kacuenaw hah a hmaunawngha thung dawk hoi la ka sak hane, ratoung ka tum hane, tamawi, cecak, hoi kacaipounglah tumkhawng vaiteh, lunghawi nalaihoi la sak hanelah a dei pouh.
17 And they appointed from the Levites: Heman, the son of Joel; and from his brothers, Asaph, the son of Berechiah; and truly, from their brothers, the sons of Merari: Ethan, the son of Kushaiah.
Hatdawkvah, Levihnaw ni Joel capa Heman hoi a hmaunawngha thung hoi Berekhiah e capa Asaph, a hmaunawngha Merari e capanaw thung hoi Kushaiah capa Etham hah a rawi awh.
18 And with them were their brothers in the second rank: Zechariah, and Ben, and Jaaziel, and Shemiramoth, and Jahiel, and Unni, and Eliab, and Benaiah, and Maaseiah, and Mattithiah, and Eliphelehu, and Mikneiah, and Obededom, and Jeiel, who were gatekeepers.
Hmaunawnghanaw thung hoi Zekhariah casak Jaaziel, Shemiramoth, Jehiel, Unni, Eliab, Benaiah, Maaseiah, Mattithiah, Eliphelehu, Mikneiah, Obededom hoi tho ka ring e Jeiel tinaw a rawi awh.
19 Now the singers, Heman, Asaph, and Ethan, were sounding out with cymbals of brass.
Hatdawkvah, la ka sak hane Heman, Asaph, Ethan, hah cecak kacaipounglah tumkhawng hanelah a rawi awh.
20 And Zechariah, and Aziel, and Shemiramoth, and Jehiel, and Unni, and Eliab, and Maaseiah, and Benaiah were singing mysteries with the psalteries.
Zekhariah, Aziel, Shemiramoth, Jehiel, Unni, Eliab, Maaseiah, Benaiah teh Alamoth lawk hoi ratoung tum hanelah a rawi awh.
21 Then Mattithiah, and Eliphelehu, and Mikneiah and Obededom, and Jeiel and Azaziah were singing a song of victory with the harps, for the octave.
Mattithiah, Eliphelehu, Mikneiah, Obededom, Jeiel, Azaziah teh Sheminith lawk lahoi tamawi hoi hrawi hanelah a rawi awh.
22 Now Chenaniah, the leader of the Levites, was foremost over the prophecies, in order to mark out in advance the melodies. For indeed, he was very skillful.
Levihnaw kacue e Kenaniah, teh la sak a thoum la kahrawikung lah ao.
23 And Berechiah and Elkanah were porters of the ark.
Berekhiah hoi Elkanah teh thingkong tho karingkung lah ao roi.
24 And the priests, Shebaniah, and Joshaphat, and Nethanel, and Amasai, and Zechariah, and Benaiah, and Eliezer, were sounding the trumpets before the ark of God. And Obededom and Jehiah were porters of the ark.
Vaihmanaw Shebaniah, Joshaphat, Nethanel, Amasai, Zekhariah, Benaiah hoi Eliezer naw ni Cathut e thingkong hmalah mongka a ueng awh. Hahoi, Obed-edom hoi Jehiah teh thingkong e longkha karingkung lah ao awh.
25 Therefore, David, and all those greater by birth of Israel, and the tribunes, went to carry the ark of the covenant of the Lord from the house of Obededom with rejoicing.
Hahoi Devit hoi Isarel kacuenaw ransa 1000 kauknaw teh Obededom im e BAWIPA thingkong la hanelah, lunghawi nalaihoi a cei awh.
26 And when God had assisted the Levites, who were carrying the ark of the covenant of the Lord, they immolated seven bulls and seven rams.
Hatdawkvah, BAWIPA thingkong kâkayawn e Levihnaw hah, Cathut ni a kabawp teh maitotan sari touh hoi, tutan sari touh hoi thuengnae a sak awh.
27 Now David was clothed with a robe of fine linen, as were all the Levites who were carrying the ark, and the singers, and Chenaniah, the leader of the prophecy among the singers. But David was also clothed with a linen ephod.
Devit hoi thingkong kâkayawn e Levihnaw pueng, la kasaknaw, la ka hrawi e Kenaniah naw teh, lukkarei loukloukkaang e hoi a kamthoup awh. Devit hai lukkarei loukloukkaang e vaihma angki hah a kho.
28 And all of Israel were leading back the ark of the covenant of the Lord with jubilation, sounding out with the noise of horns, and trumpets, and cymbals, and psalteries, and harps.
Hottelah mongka hoi tu ki hoi, cecak lawk hoi a parawi awh teh, Isarelnaw pueng ni, hramki nalaihoi, BAWIPA lawkkam thingkong a ceikhai awh teh, la puenghoi a sak awh teh, ratoung tamawi kacaipounglah a tumkhawng awh.
29 And when the ark of the covenant of the Lord had arrived in the City of David, Michal, the daughter of Saul, gazing through a window, saw king David dancing and playing, and she despised him in her heart.
Hahoi BAWIPA lawkkam thingkong Devit kho dawk a kâenkhai awh navah, Sawl e canu Mikhal ni hlalangaw koehoi a khet navah, siangpahrang Devit a lamtu laihoi a cawkdawk e hah a hmu teh, a lungthung hoi a panuikhai.
