2 Samuel 6
1 Once again David called up all specially chosen men of Israel, thirty thousand in total.
Emesịa, Devid chịkọtara iri puku ndị agha Izrel atọ a zụziri azụzi,
2 He went with all his men to Baalah in Judah to bring back the Ark of God, which belongs to the Lord Almighty who sits between the cherubim that are on the Ark.
Ya na ndị ikom ya niile gara Baala nʼime Juda, isi nʼebe ahụ bugota igbe ọgbụgba ndụ Chineke, nke akpọkwasịrị Aha ya, bụ aha Onyenwe anyị. Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile, onye na-anọkwasị nʼetiti cherubim.
3 They placed the Ark of God on a new cart and brought it from Abinadab's house, which was on a hill. Uzzah and Ahio, Abinadab's sons, were directing the cart
Ha dọkwasịrị igbe Chineke ahụ nʼelu ụgbọala ọhụrụ ehi na-adọkpụ, buputa ya site nʼụlọ Abinadab nke dị nʼelu ugwu nta. Ọ bụ Ụza na Ahio, ụmụ Abinadab, na-edu ụgbọala ọhụrụ ahụ,
4 with the Ark of God on it, with Ahio walking in front of it.
nke igbe ọgbụgba ndụ Chineke dị nʼelu ya, Ahio butere ụzọ na-aga nʼihu igbe ahụ.
5 David and all the Israelites were celebrating in the Lord's presence, singing songs accompanied by zithers, harps, tambourines, rattles, and cymbals.
Devid na ndị Izrel weere ike ha niile na-aṅụ ọṅụ nʼihu Onyenwe anyị. Ha ji abụ, ụbọ akwara, opi, une na ogene na ihe egwu dị iche iche, dịka ịgba na ekwe na-eti egwu.
6 But when they came to the threshing floor of Nachon, the oxen stumbled, so Uzzah reached out to stop the Ark of God from falling.
Mgbe ha rutere nʼebe ịzọcha ọka nke Nakọn, Ụza setịpụrụ aka ya, jide igbe ọgbụgba ndụ Chineke ahụ, nʼihi na ehi ahụ zọhiere ụkwụ.
7 The Lord was angry with Uzzah, and God struck him down right there for his disobedience, and he died beside the Ark of God.
Ma iwe Onyenwe anyị dị ọkụ megide Ụza, nʼihi omume enweghị nsọpụrụ o mere. Ya mere, Chineke tigburu ya. Ọ nwụọ nʼebe ahụ nʼakụkụ igbe Chineke.
8 David was angry because of the Lord's violent outburst against Uzzah. He called the place Perez-uzzah, which is still its name today.
Mgbe ahụ, iwe were Devid, nʼihi ọnụma Onyenwe anyị dakwasịrị Ụza. Ruo taa, a na-akpọ ebe ahụ Perez Ụza.
9 David became afraid of the Lord that day. “How can I ever bring back the Ark of God home to me?” he asked.
Devid tụrụ egwu Onyenwe anyị nʼụbọchị ahụ. O kwuru sị, “Igbe ọgbụgba ndụ Onyenwe anyị ọ ga-esi aṅaa bịakwute m?”
10 Not wanting to bring the Ark of the Lord to be with him in the City of David, he had it taken to the home of Obed-edom the Gittite.
O kweghị ebubata igbe ọgbụgba ndụ Onyenwe anyị ahụ nʼime obodo Devid, kama o bugara ya nʼụlọ Obed-Edọm, onye Git.
11 The Ark of the Lord remained in Obed-edom's home for three months, and the Lord blessed Obed-edom's whole household.
Igbe ọgbụgba ndụ Onyenwe anyị nọrọ nʼụlọ Obed-Edọm, onye Git ọnwa atọ. Onyenwe anyị gọzikwara ya na ezinaụlọ ya niile.
12 King David was told, “The Lord has blessed Obed-edom's household and all that he has because of the Ark of God.” So David went and had the Ark of God brought from Obed-edom's house to the City of David. There was a lot of celebration!
Mgbe a gwara eze bụ Devid si, “Onyenwe anyị agọziela ezinaụlọ Obed-Edọm na ihe niile o nwere, nʼihi igbe ọgbụgba ndụ Chineke.” Nʼihi nke a, Devid ji oke ọṅụ gaa nʼụlọ Obed-Edọm, nʼihi ibugote igbe ọgbụgba ndụ Chineke, buga nʼobodo Devid.
13 After those carrying the Ark of the Lord had taken six steps, he sacrificed a bull and a fattened calf.
Mgbe ndị bu igbe ọgbụgba ndụ Onyenwe anyị ahụ zọrọ nzọ ụkwụ isii; ọ na-eji oke ehi na nwa ehi gbara abụba chụọ aja.
14 Wearing a priest's ephod, David danced as hard as he could before the Lord
Devid ji ike ya niile na-ete egwu nʼihu Onyenwe anyị. Ọ yi uwe efọọd e ji akwa ọcha dụọ nʼụbọchị ahụ,
15 as he and all the Israelites brought along the Ark of the Lord, with plenty of shouting and the sound of horns being blown.
mgbe ya na ndị Izrel niile ji iti mkpu na ụda ịfụ opi ike na-ebubata igbe ọgbụgba ndụ Onyenwe anyị.
16 As the Ark of the Lord was carried into the City of David, Saul's daughter Michal looked down from a window. She watched King David leaping and dancing before the Lord, and she really loathed him.
Mgbe ha bu igbe ọgbụgba ndụ Onyenwe anyị na-abata nʼobodo Devid, Mikal, nwa Sọl lepụrụ anya site na oghereikuku ụlọ. Mgbe ọ hụrụ eze Devid ka ọ na-awụli elu na-etekwa egwu nʼihu Onyenwe anyị, o ledara ya anya nʼime obi ya.
17 They brought the Ark of the Lord and put it on its place inside the tent that David had set up for it. Then David offered burnt offerings and friendship offerings before the Lord.
Ha bubatara igbe ọgbụgba ndụ Onyenwe anyị ahụ, guzobe ya nʼọnọdụ ya nʼime ụlọ ikwu nke Devid manyere maka ya. Devid chụrụ aja nsure ọkụ na aja udo nʼihu Onyenwe anyị.
18 Once he had finished offering the sacrifices, David blessed the people in the name of the Lord Almighty.
Mgbe ọ chụsịrị aja nsure ọkụ na aja udo ndị a, ọ gọziri ndị Izrel nʼaha Onyenwe anyị, Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile.
19 He gave all the Israelites, both men and women, a loaf of bread, a date cake, and a raisin cake. Then he sent everyone home.
O nyekwara onye ọbụla nʼetiti igwe ndị Izrel niile ahụ, ma nwoke ma nwanyị, otu ogbe achịcha, ọkpụrụkpụ anụ na achịcha mkpụrụ osisi a mịkpọrọ amịkpọ. Ndị a niile lara, onye ọbụla nʼụlọ nke ya.
20 When David got home to bless his family, Michal, Saul's daughter came out to meet him and said, “How distinguished the king of Israel made himself look today, taking off his robes so everyone's servant girls could see, just as somebody crude would expose himself!”
Mgbe Devid lọtara ka ọ gọzie ndị ụlọ ya, Mikal, ada Sọl pụtara izute ya, sị, “Lee ka eze Izrel si mee onwe ya onye dị ukwuu taa! Ọ gbara onwe ya ọtọ na mbara, nʼihu ndị ohu nwanyị nke ndị odibo ya dịka mmadụ efu.”
21 David told Michal, “I was dancing before the Lord, who chose me instead of your father and all his family when he named me ruler over the Lord's people Israel. I will continue to celebrate before the Lord,
Ma Devid zara Mikal sị ya, “Ọ bụ nʼihu Onyenwe anyị onye họpụtara m karịa nna gị maọbụ onye ọbụla ọzọ sitere nʼụlọ ya ka m tere egwu. E, Onyenwe anyị ahụ họpụtara m ịbụ onyendu Izrel, ndị nke ya. Nʼezie, aga m aga nʼihu ịkpa agwa dịka onye nzuzu nʼihi ịsọpụrụ Onyenwe anyị.
22 in fact I'm going to make myself even less distinguished, become even more humble. However, I will be respected by those servant girls you spoke about.”
E, aga m aga nʼihu ịghọ onye na-enweghị uche, na onye e weturu ala nʼanya onwe m. Ma ụmụ agbọghọ ndị ahụ i kwuru okwu ha, ha ga-asọpụrụ m!”
23 And Michal, Saul's daughter, never had any children.
Mikal, ada Sọl amụtaghị nwa ọbụla ruo nʼoge ọnwụ ya.
