1 Chronicles 13
1 And David consulted with the captains of thousands and hundreds, with every prince.
David je vijećao s tisućnicima, stotnicima i sa svim vođama.
2 And David said to all the congregation of Israel, If it seem good to you, and it be of Jehovah our God, let us send abroad to our brethren everywhere, that are left in all the lands of Israel, and with them to the priests and Levites in their cities and suburbs, that they may gather themselves to us;
I reče on svemu zboru Izraelovu: “Ako vam je pravo te ako je naš Bog Jahve odlučio tako, poslat ćemo glasnike k svojoj ostaloj braći u svim izraelskim zemljama, a tako i svećenicima s njima i levitima po gradovima pašnjaka njihovih, da se ujedine s nama.
3 and let us bring again the ark of our God to us; for we inquired not of it in the days of Saul.
Prenijet ćemo k sebi Kovčeg svoga Boga, jer ga nismo doista tražili za Šaulovih dana.”
4 And all the congregation said that they should do so; for the thing was right in the eyes of all the people.
Sav zbor odluči da se tako učini, jer je to bilo pravo u očima svega naroda.
5 And David assembled all Israel from the Shihor of Egypt unto the entrance of Hamath, to bring the ark of God from Kirjath-jearim.
Tako je David sabrao sav narod Izraelov od Egipatskoga Šihora pa do Ulaza u Hamat da donesu Kovčeg Božji iz Kirjat Jearima.
6 And David went up, and all Israel, to Baalah, to Kirjath-jearim, which belonged to Judah, to bring up from thence the ark of God, of Jehovah, who sitteth between the cherubim, whose name is placed [there].
Pošao je David sa svim Izraelom u Baalu, u Kirjat Jearim, koji je u Judi, da odande ponesu Kovčeg Božji nazvan imenom Jahve, koji stoluje nad kerubinima.
7 And they carried the ark of God on a new cart out of the house of Abinadab; and Uzza and Ahio drove the cart.
Povezli su Kovčeg Božji na novim kolima iz Abinadabove kuće; a Uza i Ahjo upravljali su kolima.
8 And David and all Israel played before God with all their might, and with singing, and with harps, and with lutes, and with tambours, and with cymbals, and with trumpets.
David i sav Izrael igrali su pred Bogom iz sve snage pjevajući uza zvuke citara, harfa, bubnjeva, cimbala i truba.
9 And when they came to the threshing-floor of Chidon, Uzza put forth his hand to hold the ark; for the oxen had stumbled.
Kad su došli do Kidonova gumna, posegnu Uza rukom da pridrži Kovčeg jer ga volovi umalo ne prevrnuše.
10 And the anger of Jehovah was kindled against Uzza, and he smote him, because he had put forth his hand to the ark; and there he died before God.
Ali se Jahve razgnjevio na Uzu i udario ga zato što je pružio ruku prema Kovčegu. Umro je ondje pred Bogom.
11 And David was indignant; for Jehovah had made a breach upon Uzza; and he called that place Perez-Uzza to this day.
Davidu bijaše žao što je Jahve onako udario Uzu i on prozva ono mjesto Peres Uza, kako se zove i dan-danas.
12 And David was afraid of God that day, saying, How shall I bring the ark of God to me?
Toga se dana David uplaši Boga i reče: “Kako ću donijeti k sebi Kovčeg Božji?”
13 And David brought not the ark home unto himself into the city of David, but he carried it aside into the house of Obed-Edom the Gittite.
Nije dao svratiti Kovčega k sebi u Davidov grad nego ga skloni u kuću Obed-Edoma Gitejca.
14 And the ark of God remained with the family of Obed-Edom in his house three months. And Jehovah blessed the house of Obed-Edom, and all that he had.
I ostade Kovčeg Božji kod Obed-Edomove obitelji, u njegovoj kući, tri mjeseca. Jahve stoga blagoslovi Obed-Edomovu kuću i sve što je imao.
