1 Chronicles 15
1 He made also houses for himself in the city of David: and built a place for the ark of God, and pitched a tabernacle for it.
David in akhopi a chun injong tampi anasa in chule Pathen thingkong koi nading jong ponbuh phatah ana song in ahi.
2 Then David said: No one ought to carry the ark of God, but the Levites, whom the Lord hath chosen to carry it, and to minister unto himself for ever.
Hichun David in hitin asei e Pathen thingkong pudia chu Pakai deilhen Levi mite tailou chu akin bol a pangthei lou ding ahi ati.
3 And he gathered all Israel together into Jerusalem, that the ark of God might be brought into its place, which he had prepared for it.
Hichun David in Pakai thingkong koina dingmun semna a pulut ding in Jerusalem khopi a um Israel mite chu ana kou in ahi.
4 And the sons of Aaron also, and the Levites.
Hiche a anakikou miho chu ahile Aaron thempu le Levi chate ho ahiuve.
5 Of the children of Caath, Uriel was the chief, and his brethren a hundred and twenty.
Uriel lamkai na akon in Kohath nambah ami jakhat le somni ahin,
6 Of the sons of Merari, Asaia the chief, and his brethren two hundred and twenty.

10 Of the sons of Oziel, Aminadab the chief: and his brethren a hundred and twelve.
Aminadab lamkai na in Uzziel chilhah techu mi jale somleni ma alhing uve.
11 And David called Sadoc, and Abiathar the priests, and the Levites, Uriel, Asaia, Joel, Semeia, Eliel, and Aminadab:
Chuin David in thempu ho Zadok le Abiathar chule Levi mite lah a kon in Uriel, Asaiah, Joel ahin Shemaiah ahin Eliel le Aminadab ho chu akou khom soh keiyin ahi.
12 And he said to them: You that are the heads of the Levitical families, be sanctified with your brethren, and brine the ark of the Lord the God of Israel to the place, which is prepared for it:
David in amaho kom a chun hitin asei e; “Nangho Levi insung mite dia lamkai pipui nahiu ve. Hijeh chun Israel Pathen pakai thingkong chu akoina ding a kagotna mun a nahin nungput kit nadiu vin nang ho ahin chule nainsungmite cheng nabon un kisutheng un,” ati.
13 Lest as the Lord at first struck us, because you were not present, the same should now also come to pass, by our doing some thing against the law.
Pakai ina-doh lou jeh’u chun Pakai vantil Pathen lunghan na ichung uva ana chu’in Levi mite chun thingkong chu nana pohlut thei lou-u ahi.
14 So the priests and the Levites were sanctified, to carry the ark of the Lord the God of Israel.
Hijeh chun thempu ho le Levi mite jouse chun Israel Pathen Pakai thingkong Jerusalem mun’a putdoh nadin kilhai na ana nei uvin ahi.
15 And the sons of Levi took the ark of God as Moses had commanded, according to the word of the Lord, upon their shoulders, with the staves.
Chuin Pakai in Mose athuhil bang chun Levi miten Pathen thingkong chu moljol in alengkou un ahin pu uvin ahi.
16 And David spoke to the chiefs of the Levites, to appoint some of their brethren to be singers with musical instruments, to wit, on psalteries, and harps, and cymbals, that the joyful noise might resound on high.
Hichun David in jong lamkai ho chu thu apen Levi mite lasathem le tumging them hon kipa lasah a tumging le semjang sai a khutbeh gintho ding in asei e.
17 And they appointed Levites, Hemam the son of Joel, and of his brethren Asaph the son of Barachias: and of the sons of Merari, their brethren: Ethan the son of Casaia.
Chuin Levi hon jong Joel chapa Heman Levi tetoh sopi Merari nambah sung a kon Berekiah chapa ahin, Kushaiah chapa Ethan ho cheng ana pan sah uvin ahi.
18 And with them their brethren: in the second rank, Zacharias, and Ben, and Jaziel, and Semiramoth, and Jahiel, and Ani, and Eliab, and Banaias, and Maasias, and Mathathias, and Eliphalu, and Macenias, and Obededom, and Jehiel, the porters.

19 Now the singers, Heman, Asaph, and Ethan, sounded with cymbals of brass.
Tumging them lah a Heman, Asaph le Ethan ho chu sumeng semjang sai ding in ana lheng uvin,
20 And Zacharias, and Oziel, and Semiramoth, and Jehiel, and Ani, and Eliab, and Maasias, and Banaias, sung mysteries upon psalteries.
Chule Zechariah, Aziel, Shemiramoth, Jehiel, Unni, Eliab, Measaiah le Benaiah ho cheng chu selang dah sai din ana lheng doh uvin ahi.
21 And Mathathias, and Eliphalu, and Macenias and Obededom, and Jehiel and Ozaziu, sung a song of victory for the octave upon harps.
Chule Mittithiah, Elipelehu, Mikneiah, Obed-edom, Jeiel chule Azaziah ho chu la aw lhingsetna sahna kimang semjang saidin apan sah uve.
22 And Chonenias chief of the Levites, presided over the prophecy, to give out the tunes: for he was very skillful.
Chuin Levite lah a lamkai Kenaiah hi lasah lambolthei tah ahijeh chun la lamkai din apan sah uve.
23 And Barachias, and Elcana, were doorkeepers of the ark.
Chule Pathen thingkong vengtup ding in Berekaiah le Elkanah chu ana pansah uve.
24 And Sebenias, and Josaphat, and Nathanael, and Amasai, and Zacharias, and Banaias, and Eliezer the priests, sounded with trumpets, before the ark of God: and Obededom and Jehias were porters of the ark.
Shebanaiah, Joshephat, Nethanel, Amasai, Zecharaiah, Beniah le Eliezer ho cheng hin Pathen thingkong mai a kitol uva saki a kisem pengkul amut diu ahi, chule Obed-edom le Jehiah chu Pathen thingkong kotngah in apan sah uve.
25 So David and all the ancients of Israel, and the captains over thousands, went to bring the ark of the covenant of the Lord out of the house of Obededom with joy.
David le Israel upate chule sepai lamkai pipuho chun Pakai kitepna thingkong chu Jerusalem a ahin pohlut a loupi tah a kipa pi ding in Obed-edom inpia chun ana cheuve.
26 And when God had helped the Levites who carried the ark of the covenant of the Lord, they offered in sacrifice seven oxen, and seven rams.
Chule Pathen in Levi mite akithopi a, amahon Pakai kitepna thingkong ahin pohlut jeh u chun bongchal sagi le kelngoi sagi kilhai nan anathat uve.
27 And David was clothed with a robe of fine linen, and all the Levites that carried the ark, and the singing men, and Chonenias the ruler of the prophecy among the singers: and David also had on him an ephod of linen.
David le Levi mite Pakai thingkong pua pang ahin, lasa a pang ho le la lamkai Kenaniah ho chu tupat ponnem in ana kivon uve. David jong chun thempu ho lengban khat jong ana kiban in ahi.
28 And all Israel brought the ark of the covenant of the Lord with joyful shouting, and sounding with the sound of the comet, and with trumpets, and cymbals, and psalteries, and harps.
Hiti chun Israel mite chun kipana aw thong’a sampum le sumkon gin le saki mutgin chule khutbeh beng ginle semjang saiging tho in Pakai kitepna thingkong chu ahin pulut uvin ahi.
29 And when the ark of the covenant of the Lord was come to the city of David, Michol the daughter of Saul looking out at a window, saw king David dancing and playing, and she despised him in her heart.
Pakai kitepna thingkong David khopia ahin pohlut u chun, Saul chanu Michal in in bang kot apat ahin vetsuh le leng David kipa thanop thoa achop le chu amun ana japi in ahi.
