< 1 Chronicles 13 >
1 And David consulted with the captains of thousands and hundreds, with every prince.
Daudi nĩmagĩire ndundu na anene ake a ita, arĩa maathaga ikundi cia thigari ngiri na ikundi cia thigari igana.
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;
Ningĩ agĩcooka akĩĩra kĩũngano gĩothe gĩa Isiraeli atĩrĩ, “Mũngĩona kwagĩrĩire na angĩkorwo nĩ kwenda kwa Jehova Ngai witũ, nĩ tũtũme ũhoro kũndũ na kũndũ kũrĩ ariũ a ithe witũ arĩa angĩ marĩ kũndũ guothe ngʼongo-inĩ cia Isiraeli, o na kũrĩ athĩnjĩri-Ngai na Alawii arĩa me hamwe nao matũũra-inĩ mao na ũrĩithio-inĩ wao, moke manyiitanĩre na ithuĩ.
3 and let us bring again the ark of our God to us; for we inquired not of it in the days of Saul.
Nĩtũrehei ithandũkũ rĩa kĩrĩkanĩro rĩa Ngai witũ tũrĩcookie kũrĩ ithuĩ, nĩgũkorwo tũtiatuĩragia ũhoro harĩ rĩo hĩndĩ ya ũthamaki wa Saũlũ.”
4 And all the congregation said that they should do so; for the thing was right in the eyes of all the people.
Kĩũngano gĩothe gĩgĩtĩkĩra gwĩka ũguo tondũ andũ othe nĩmoonire ũndũ ũcio nĩwagĩrĩire.
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.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Daudi agĩcookanĩrĩria andũ a Isiraeli othe kuuma Rũũĩ rwa Shihoru kũu Misiri nginya Lebo-Hamathu, makagĩĩre ithandũkũ rĩa Ngai kuuma Kiriathu-Jearimu.
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].
Daudi na andũ a Isiraeli othe arĩa maarĩ nake magĩthiĩ Baala kũu Juda (nĩkuo Kiriathu-Jearimu) makagĩĩre ithandũkũ rĩa Jehova Ngai ũrĩa ũikarĩire gĩtĩ kĩa ũnene gatagatĩ ka makerubi, o ithandũkũ rĩu rĩĩtanĩtio na Rĩĩtwa rĩake.
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.
Makĩruta ithandũkũ rĩa Ngai kuuma nyũmba ya Abinadabu rĩkuuĩtwo na ikaari rĩerũ, rĩtongoretio nĩ Uza na Ahio.
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.
Daudi na andũ a Isiraeli othe magĩkũngũĩra na hinya wao wothe marĩ mbere ya Ngai, makĩinaga na inanda cia mũgeeto na cia kĩnũbi, na tũhembe, na thaani iria ihũũrithanagio ikagamba, na tũrumbeta.
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.
Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa maakinyire kĩhuhĩro-inĩ kĩa ngano gĩa Kidoni, Uza agĩtambũrũkia guoko nĩguo anyiitĩrĩre ithandũkũ rĩu rĩa kĩrĩkanĩro, tondũ ndegwa nĩciahĩngirwo.
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.
Na rĩrĩ, marakara ma Jehova nĩmakanĩire Uza, akĩmũgũtha, akĩgũa tondũ nĩanyiitire ithandũkũ rĩu na guoko. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Uza agĩkuĩra o hau mbere ya Ngai.
11 And David was indignant; for Jehovah had made a breach upon Uzza; and he called that place Perez-Uzza to this day.
Nake Daudi akĩrakara tondũ mangʼũrĩ ma Jehova nĩmookĩrĩire Uza, nĩ ũndũ ũcio handũ hau hetagwo Perezu-Uza nginya ũmũthĩ.
12 And David was afraid of God that day, saying, How shall I bring the ark of God to me?
Daudi agĩĩtigĩra Ngai mũthenya ũcio, akĩũria atĩrĩ, “Ngaahota atĩa kũrehe ithandũkũ rĩĩrĩ rĩa Ngai kũrĩ niĩ?”
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.
Tondũ ũcio Daudi ndaathiire na ithandũkũ rĩu Itũũra-inĩ Inene rĩa Daudi. Handũ ha ũguo, aarĩtwarire kwa Obedi-Edomu ũrĩa Mũgiiti.
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.
Ithandũkũ rĩu rĩa Ngai rĩaikarire na andũ a nyũmba ya Obedi-Edomu gwake mũciĩ mĩeri ĩtatũ, nake Jehova akĩrathima andũ a mũciĩ wake, o na kĩrĩa gĩothe aarĩ nakĩo.
