< 2 Samuel 6 >

1 Then David again gathered together all the elect men of Israel, thirty thousand.
Na ka huihuia ano e Rawiri te hunga whiriwhiri katoa o Iharaira e toru tekau mano.
2 And David arose and went away, with the entire people who were with him from the men of Judah, so that they might lead back the ark of God, over which is invoked the name of the Lord of hosts, who sits upon the cherubim above it.
A ka whakatika a Rawiri ratou ko tona nuinga katoa, haere ana i Paare o Hura, tikina ana i reira te aaka a Ihowa, e huaina nei ki te Ingoa, ara ki te ingoa o Ihowa o nga mano, e noho nei i waenganui o nga kerupima.
3 And they placed the ark of God on a new cart. And they took it from the house of Abinadab, who was in Gibeon. And Uzzah and Ahio, the sons of Abinadab, drove the new cart.
Na ka whakanohoia e ratou te aaka a te Atua ki runga ki te kata hou, a mauria ana i te whare o Apinarapa i Kipea; a na Uha raua ko Ahio, na nga tama a Apinarapa, i arahi te kata hou.
4 And when they had taken it from the house of Abinadab, who was in Gibeon, Ahio preceded the ark as the keeper of the ark of God.
Na kawea ana i te whare o Apinarapa i Kipea, me te haere tahi ano ratou ko te aaka a te Atua; i haere ano a Ahio i mua i te aaka.
5 But David and all of Israel played before the Lord on every kind of musical instrument made of wood, and on harps, and lyres, and timbrels, and bells, and cymbals.
Na ka takaro a Rawiri ratou ko te whare katoa o Iharaira ki te aroaro o Ihowa, me te whakatangi ano i a ratou mea katoa he kauri nei te rakau, i nga hapa, i nga hatere, i nga timipera, i nga koronete, i nga himipora.
6 And after they had arrived at the threshing floor of Nacon, Uzzah extended his hand to the ark of God, and he touched it, because the oxen were kicking and had caused it to tip.
A ka tae ki te patunga witi a Nakono, ka totoro a Uha ki te aaka a te Atua, a puritia ana e ia; i paheke hoki nga kau.
7 And the indignation of the Lord was enraged against Uzzah. And he struck him for his temerity. And there he died, beside the ark of God.
Na ka mura te riri o Ihowa ki a Uha, a patua iho ia i reira e te Atua mo tona he, a mate ake i reira i te taha o te aaka a te Atua.
8 Then David was saddened because the Lord had struck Uzzah. And the name of that place was called: the Striking of Uzzah, even to this day.
Na ka pouri a Rawiri mo ta Ihowa tukitukinga i a Uha; na huaina ana taua wahi e ia, ko Pereteuha; koia ano tena inaianei.
9 And David was very fearful of the Lord on that day, saying, “How shall the ark of the Lord be brought to me?”
Na ka wehi a Rawiri i a Ihowa i taua ra, ka mea, Ma te aha e tae ake ai te aaka a Ihowa ki ahau.
10 And he was not willing to send the ark of the Lord to himself in the city of David. Instead, he sent it into the house of Obededom, the Gittite.
Heoi kihai a Rawiri i pai ki te tango i te aaka a Ihowa ki a ia, ki te pa o Rawiri; na kawea ketia ana e Rawiri ki te whare o Opereeroma Kiti.
11 And the ark of the Lord dwelt in the house of Obededom the Gittite, for three months. And the Lord blessed Obededom, and all his household.
E toru nga marama i noho ai te aaka a Ihowa ki te whare o Opereeroma Kiti: a ka manaakitia e Ihowa a Opereeroma ratou ko tona whare katoa.
12 And it was reported to king David that the Lord had blessed Obededom, and all that was his, because of the ark of God. Therefore, David went and brought the ark of God, from the house of Obededom, into the city of David with joy. And there were with David seven choirs, and calves for victims.
A ka korerotia te korero ki a Kingi Rawiri, Kua manaakitia e Ihowa te whare o Opereeroma me ana mea katoa, he whakaaro ki te aaka a te Atua. Na ka haere a Rawiri, a kawea ana e ia te aaka a te Atua, i te whare o Opereeroma ki runga, ki te pa o R awiri, me te koa ano ia.
13 And when those who were carrying the ark of the Lord had traveled six steps, he immolated an ox and a ram.
A ka ono nga hikoinga i hokoi ai nga kaiamo i te aaka a Ihowa, na ka patua e ia etahi kau me tetahi mea momona.
14 And David danced with all his ability before the Lord. And David was girded with the linen ephod.
Na ka whakapaua katoatia tona kaha e Rawiri ki te kanikani ki te aroaro o Ihowa: i whitikiria ano he epora rinena ki a Rawiri.
15 And David, and all the house of Israel, were leading the ark of the testament of the Lord, with jubilation and the sound of the trumpet.
Heoi ka kawea te aaka a Ihowa e Rawiri ratou ko te whare katoa o Iharaira, me te hamama ano ratou, me te tangi ano te tetere.
16 And when the ark of the Lord had entered into the city of David, Michal, the daughter of Saul, looking out through a window, saw king David leaping and dancing before the Lord. And she despised him in her heart.
A, i te taenga o te aaka a Ihowa ki te pa o Rawiri, na ka titiro a Mikara, tamahine a Haora na te matapihi, a ka kite i a Kingi Rawiri e tupekepeke ana, e kanikani ana i te aroaro o Ihowa; a whakahawea ana ia ki a ia i roto i tona ngakau.
17 And they led in the ark of the Lord. And they set it in its place in the middle of the tabernacle, which David had pitched for it. And David offered holocausts and peace offerings in the sight of the Lord.
Na ka kawea e ratou te aaka a Ihowa, a whakaturia ana ki tona wahi, ki waenganui o te tapenakara i whakaarahia e Rawiri mona: na ka tapaea e Rawiri etahi tahunga tinana ki te aroaro o Ihowa, me etahi whakahere mo te pai.
18 And when he had completed offering holocausts and peace offerings, he blessed the people in the name of the Lord of hosts.
A, no ka mutu ta Rawiri tapae i nga tahunga tinana, i nga whakahere mo te pai, ka manaakitia e ia te iwi i runga i te ingoa o Ihowa o nga mano.
19 And he distributed to the entire multitude of Israel, as much to men as to women, to each one: one loaf of bread, and one piece of roasted beef, and fine wheat flour fried with oil. And all the people went away, each one to his own house.
I tuwhaina ano e ia ma te iwi katoa, ma te huihui katoa o Iharaira, ma te tane, ma te wahine, kotahi keke taro ma tenei, ma tenei, me tetahi wahi kikokiko, me tetahi keke karepe maroke. Na haere ana te iwi katoa ki tona whare, ki tona whare.
20 And David returned, so that he might bless his own house. And Michal, the daughter of Saul, going out to meet David, said: “How glorious was the king of Israel today, uncovering himself before the handmaids of his servants, and being unclothed, as if one of the performers were unclothed.”
Katahi a Rawiri ka hoki ki te manaaki i tona whare. A ka puta a Mikara, tamahine a Haora ki te whakatau i a Rawiri, a ka mea, Ano te kororia o te kingi o Iharaira inaianei, i whakakite kirikau nei i a ia inakuanei ki nga kanohi o nga pononga wah ine a ana tangata, pera i tetahi o te hunga wairangi e whakakite nui ana i a ia!
21 And David said to Michal: “Before the Lord, who chose me rather than your father, and rather than his entire house, and who commanded me, that I should be the leader over the people of the Lord in Israel,
Na ka mea a Rawiri ki a Mikara, I te aroaro ra o Ihowa, i whiriwhiri nei i ahau, i kape nei i tou papa, me tona whare katoa, i whakarite hoki a ahau hei rangatira mo te iwi a Ihowa, mo Iharaira; koia ahau ka takaro ki te aroaro o Ihowa.
22 I will both play and demean myself, more so than I have done. And I will be little in my own eyes. And with the handmaids, about whom you are speaking, I will appear more glorious.”
Na ka nui atu ano i tenei toku wairangi, a ka iti iho ahau ki taku titiro; ko nga pononga wahine ia i kiia mai na e koe, ka whakahonoretia ahau e ratou.
23 And so, there was no child born to Michal, the daughter of Saul, even to the day of her death.
Na kahore he tamariki a Mikara tamahine a Haora a taea noatia te ra i mate ai ia.
