2 Samuel 6
1 And David again gathered all the chosen men of Israel, thirty thousand.
E tornou David a ajuntar todos os escolhidos de Israel, em número de trinta mil.
2 And David arose and went with all the people that were with him from Baale-Judah, to bring up from thence the ark of God which is called by the name, the name of Jehovah of hosts who sitteth between the cherubim.
E levantou-se David, e partiu com todo o povo que tinha consigo de Baalim de Judá, para levarem dali para cima a arca de Deus, sobre a qual se invoca o nome, o nome do Senhor dos exércitos, que se assenta entre os cherubins.
3 And they set the ark of God upon a new cart, and brought it out of the house of Abinadab, which was upon the hill; and Uzzah and Ahio, the sons of Abinadab, drove the new cart.
E puseram a arca de Deus em um carro novo, e a levaram da casa de Abinadab, que está em Gibeah: e Uza e Ahio, filhos de Abinadab, guiavam o carro novo.
4 And they brought it with the ark of God out of the house of Abinadab which was upon the hill; and Ahio went before the ark.
E levando-o da casa de Abinadab, que está em Gibeah, com a arca de Deus, Ahio ia diante da arca.
5 And David and all the house of Israel played before Jehovah on all manner of [instruments made of] cypress wood, with harps, and with lutes, and with tambours, and with sistra, and with cymbals.
E David, e toda a casa de Israel, fazia alegrias perante o Senhor, com toda a sorte de instrumentos de pau de faia: como com harpas, e com saltérios, e com tamboris, e com pandeiros, e com címbalos.
6 And when they came to Nachon's threshing-floor, Uzzah reached after the ark of God, and took hold of it; for the oxen had stumbled.
E, chegando à eira de Nachon, estendeu Uza a mão à arca de Deus, e teve mão nela; porque os bois a deixavam pender.
7 And the anger of Jehovah was kindled against Uzzah; and God smote him there for his error; and there he died by the ark of God.
Então a ira do Senhor se acendeu contra Uza, e Deus o feriu ali por esta imprudência: e morreu ali junto à arca de Deus.
8 And David was indignant, because Jehovah had made a breach upon Uzzah; and he called that place Perez-Uzzah to this day.
E David se contristou, porque o Senhor abrira rotura em Uza; e chamou aquele lugar Peres-uza, até ao dia de hoje.
9 And David was afraid of Jehovah that day, and said, How shall the ark of Jehovah come to me?
E temeu David ao Senhor naquele dia; e disse: Como virá a mim a arca do Senhor?
10 So David would not bring the ark of Jehovah home unto himself into the city of David; but David carried it aside into the house of Obed-Edom the Gittite.
E não quis David retirar a si a arca do Senhor à cidade de David; mas David a fez levar à casa de Obed-edom, o getheu.
11 And the ark of Jehovah remained in the house of Obed-Edom the Gittite three months; and Jehovah blessed Obed-Edom and all his household.
E ficou a arca do Senhor em casa de Obed-Edom, o getheu, três meses: e abençoou o Senhor a Obed-edom, e a toda a sua casa.
12 And it was told king David, saying, Jehovah has blessed the house of Obed-Edom, and all that is his, because of the ark of God. And David went and brought up the ark of God from the house of Obed-Edom into the city of David with joy.
Então avisaram a David, dizendo: Abençoou o Senhor a casa de Obed-Edom, e tudo quanto tem, por amor da arca de Deus; foi pois David, e trouxe a arca de Deus para cima, da casa de Obed-edom, à cidade de David, com alegria.
13 And it was so, that when they that bore the ark of Jehovah had gone six paces, he sacrificed an ox and a fatted beast.
E sucedeu que, quando os que levavam a arca do Senhor tinham dado seis passos, sacrificava bois e carneiros cevados.
14 And David danced before Jehovah with all his might; and David was girded with a linen ephod.
E David saltava com todas as suas forças diante do Senhor: e estava David cingido dum éfode de linho.
15 And David and all the house of Israel brought up the ark of Jehovah with shouting, and with the sound of the trumpet.
Assim subindo, levavam David e todo o Israel a arca do Senhor, com júbilo, e ao som das trombetas.
16 And as the ark of Jehovah came into the city of David, Michal the daughter of Saul looked through a window, and saw king David leaping and dancing before Jehovah; and she despised him in her heart.
E sucedeu que, entrando a arca do Senhor na cidade de David, Michal, a filha de Saul, estava olhando pela janela: e, vendo ao rei David, que ia bailando e saltando diante do Senhor, o desprezou no seu coração.
17 And they brought in the ark of Jehovah, and set it in its place, in the midst of the tent that David had spread for it. And David offered up burnt-offerings and peace-offerings before Jehovah.
E introduzindo a arca do Senhor, a puseram no seu lugar, na tenda que David lhe armara: e ofereceu David holocaustos e ofertas pacíficas perante o Senhor.
18 And when David had ended offering up the burnt-offerings and the peace-offerings, he blessed the people in the name of Jehovah of hosts.
E acabando David de oferecer os holocaustos e ofertas pacíficas, abençoou o povo em nome do Senhor dos exércitos.
19 And he dealt to all the people, to the whole multitude of Israel, both men and women, to every one a cake of bread, and a measure [of wine], and a raisin-cake. And all the people departed every one to his house.
E repartiu a todo o povo, e a toda a multidão de Israel, desde os homens até às mulheres, a cada um, um bolo de pão, e um bom pedaço de carne, e um frasco de vinho; então foi-se todo o povo, cada um para sua casa.
20 And David returned to bless his household. And Michal the daughter of Saul came out to meet David, and said, How honourable did the king of Israel make himself to-day, who uncovered himself to-day in the eyes of the handmaids of his servants, as one of the lewd fellows shamelessly uncovers himself!
E, voltando David para abençoar a sua casa, Michal, a filha de Saul, saiu a encontrar-se com David, e disse: Quão honrado foi o rei de Israel, descobrindo-se hoje aos olhos das servas de seus servos, como sem pejo se descobre qualquer dos vadios.
21 And David said to Michal, It was before Jehovah, who chose me rather than thy father, and than all his house, to appoint me ruler over the people of Jehovah, over Israel; and I played before Jehovah.
Disse porém David a Michal: Perante o Senhor, que me escolheu a mim antes do que a teu pai, e a toda a sua casa, mandando-me que fosse chefe sobre o povo do Senhor, sobre Israel: perante o Senhor tenho feito alegrias.
22 And I will make myself yet more vile than thus, and will be base in mine own sight; and of the handmaids that thou hast spoken of, of them shall I be had in honour.
E ainda mais do que isto me envilecerei, e me humilharei aos meus olhos: e das servas, de quem falaste, delas serei honrado.
23 And Michal the daughter of Saul had no child to the day of her death.
E Michal, a filha de Saul, não teve filhos, até ao dia da sua morte.
