< 1 Chronicles 13 >

1 And David consulted with the captains of thousands, and of hundreds, and with all the commanders.
And he consulted David with [the] commanders of the thousands and the hundreds to every leader.
2 And he said to all the assembly of Israel: If it please you; and if the words which I speak come from the Lord our God, let us send to the rest of our brethren into all the countries of Israel, and to the priests, and the Levites, that dwell in the suburbs of the cities, to gather themselves to us,
And he said David to all - [the] assembly of Israel if [is] on you good and from Yahweh God our let us spread out let us send to countrymen our who remain in all [the] lands of Israel and with them the priests and the Levites in [the] cities of pasture lands their so they may gather together to us.
3 And let us bring again the ark of our God to us: for we sought it not in the days of Saul.
And let us bring round [the] ark of God our to us for not we sought it in [the] days of Saul.
4 And all the multitude answered that it should be so: for the word pleased all the people.
And they said all the assembly to do thus for it was pleasing the matter in [the] eyes of all the people.
5 So David assembled all Israel from Sihor of Egypt, even to the entering into Emath, to bring the ark of God from Cariathiarim.
And he called together David all Israel from Shihor of Egypt and to Lebo Hamath to bring [the] ark of God from Kiriath Jearim.
6 And David went up with all the men of Israel to the hill of Cariathiarim which is in Juda, to bring thence the ark of the Lord God sitting upon the cherubims, where his name is called upon.
And he went up David and all Israel Baalah towards to Kiriath Jearim which [belongs] to Judah to bring up from there [the] ark of God - Yahweh [who] sits the cherubim where it is called a name.
7 And they carried the ark of God upon a new cart, out of the house of Abinadab. And Oza and his brother drove the cart.
And they made to ride [the] ark of God on a cart new from [the] house of Abinadab and Uzzah and Ahio [were] leading the cart.
8 And David and all Israel played before God with all their might with hymns, and with harps, and with psalteries, and timbrels, and cymbals, and trumpets,
And David and all Israel [were] making merry before God with all strength and with songs and with harps and with lyres and with tambourines and with cymbals and with trumpets.
9 And when they came to the floor of Chidon, Oza put forth his hand, to hold up the ark: for the ox being wanton had made it lean a little on one side.
And they came to [the] threshing floor of Kidon and he stretched out Uzzah hand his to grasp the ark for they stumbled the ox[en].
10 And the Lord was angry with Oza, and struck him, because he had touched the ark; and he died there before the Lord.
And it burned [the] anger of Yahweh on Uzzah and he struck down him on that he had stretched out hand his on the ark and he died there before God.
11 And David was troubled because the Lord had divided Oza: and he called that place the Breach of Oza to this day.
And it burned to David for he had broken out Yahweh a breaking out against Uzzah and he called the place that Perez Uzzah until the day this.
12 And he feared God at that time, saying: How can I bring in the ark of God to me?
And he feared David God on the day that saying how? will I bring to myself [the] ark of God.
13 And therefore he brought it not home to himself, that is, into the city of David, but carried it aside into the house of Obededom the Gethite.
And not he turned aside David the ark to himself to [the] city of David and he turned aside it to [the] house of Obed-Edom the Gittite.
14 And the ark of God remained in the house of Obededom three months: and the Lord blessed his house, and all that he had.
And it remained [the] ark of God with [the] household of Obed-Edom in house his three months and he blessed Yahweh [the] household of Obed-Edom and all that [belonged] to him.
