1 Chronicles 15
1 And Dauid made him houses in the citie of Dauid, and prepared a place for the Arke of God, and pitched for it a tent.
Fecit quoque sibi domos in Civitate David: et ædificavit locum arcæ Dei, tetenditque ei tabernaculum.
2 Then Dauid saide, None ought to carie the Arke of God, but the Leuites: for the Lord hath chosen them to beare the Arke of the Lord, and to minister vnto him for euer.
Tunc dixit David: illicitum est ut a quocumque portetur arca Dei nisi a Levitis, quos elegit Dominus ad portandum eam, et ad ministrandum sibi usque in æternum.
3 And Dauid gathered all Israel together to Ierusalem to bring vp the Arke of the Lord vnto his place, which he had ordeined for it.
Congregavitque universum Israel in Ierusalem, ut afferretur arca Dei in locum suum, quem præparaverat ei.
4 And Dauid assembled the sonnes of Aaron, and the Leuites.
Necnon et filios Aaron, et Levitas:
5 Of the sonnes of Kohath, Vriel the chiefe, and his brethren sixe score.
De filiis Caath, Uriel princeps fuit, et fratres eius centum viginti.
6 Of the sonnes of Merari, Asaiah the chiefe, and his brethren two hundreth and twentie.
De filiis Merari, Asaia princeps: et fratres eius ducenti viginti.
7 Of the sonnes of Gershom, Ioel the chiefe, and his brethren an hundreth and thirtie.
De filiis Gersom, Ioel princeps; et fratres eius centum triginta.
8 Of the sonnes of Elizaphan, Shemaiah the chiefe, and his brethren two hundreth.
De filiis Elisaphan, Semeias princeps, et fratres eius ducenti.
9 Of the sonnes of Hebron, Eliel the chiefe, and his brethren fourescore.
De filiis Hebron, Eliel princeps; et fratres eius octoginta.
10 Of the sonnes of Vzziel, Amminadab the chiefe, and his brethren an hundreth and twelue.
De filiis Oziel, Aminadab princeps: et fratres eius centum duodecim.
11 And Dauid called Zadok and Abiathar the Priestes, and of the Leuites, Vriel, Asaiah and Ioel, Shemaiah, and Eliel, and Amminadab:
Vocavitque David Sadoc, et Abiathar Sacerdotes, et Levitas, Uriel, Asaiam, Ioel, Semeiam, Eliel, et Aminadab:
12 And he saide vnto them, Ye are the chiefe fathers of the Leuites: sanctifie your selues, and your brethren, and bring vp the Arke of the Lord God of Israel vnto the place that I haue prepared for it.
et dixit ad eos: Vos qui estis principes familiarum Leviticarum, sanctificamini cum fratribus vestris, et afferte arcam Domini Dei Israel ad locum, qui ei præparatus est:
13 For because ye were not there at the first, the Lord our God made a breach among vs: for we sought him not after due order.
ne ut a principio, quia non eratis præsentes, percussit nos Dominus; sic et nunc fiat, illicitum quid nobis agentibus.
14 So the Priestes and the Leuites sanctified them selues to bring vp the Arke of the Lord God of Israel.
Sanctificati sunt ergo Sacerdotes, et Levitæ, ut portarent arcam Domini Dei Israel.
15 And the sonnes of the Leuites bare the Arke of God vpon their shoulders with the barres, as Moses had commanded, according to the worde of the Lord.
Et tulerunt filii Levi arcam Dei, sicut præceperat Moyses iuxta verbum Domini humeris suis in vectibus.
16 And Dauid spake to the chiefe of the Leuites, that they should appoint certaine of their brethren to sing with instruments of musike, with violes and harpes, and cymbales, that they might make a sounde, and lift vp their voyce with ioye.
Dixitque David principibus Levitarum, ut constituerent de fratribus suis cantores in organis musicorum, nablis videlicet, et lyris, et cymbalis, ut resonaret in excelsis sonitus lætitiæ.
17 So the Leuites appointed Heman the sonne of Ioel, and of his brethren Asaph the sonne of Berechiah, and of the sonnes of Merari their brethren, Ethan the sonne of Kushaiah,
Constitueruntque Levitas: Heman filium Ioel, et de fratribus eius Asaph filium Barachiæ: de filiis vero Merari, fratribus eorum: Ethan filium Casaiæ.
18 And with them their brethren in the seconde degree, Zechariah, Ben, and Iaaziel, and Shemiramoth, and Iehiel, and Vnni, Eliab, and Benaiah, and Maaseiah, and Mattithiah, and Elipheleh, and Mikneah, and Obed Edom, and Ieiel the porters.
Et cum eis fratres eorum: in secundo ordine, Zachariam, et Ben, et Iaziel, et Semiramoth, et Iahiel, et Ani, Eliab, et Banaiam, et Maasiam, et Mathathiam, et Eliphalu, et Maceniam, et Obededom, et Iehiel, ianitores.
19 So Heman, Asaph and Ethan were fingers to make a sounde with cymbales of brasse,
Porro cantores, Heman, Asaph, et Ethan; in cymbalis æneis concrepantes.
20 And Zechariah, and Aziel, and Shemiramoth, and Iehiel, and Vnni, and Eliab, and Maaseiah, and Benaiah with violes on Alamoth,
Zacharias autem, et Oziel, et Semiramoth, et Iahiel, et Ani, et Eliab, et Maasias, et Banaias in nablis arcana cantabant.
21 And Mattithiah, and Elipheleh, and Mikneah, and Obed Edom, and Ieiel, and Azaziah, with harpes vpon Sheminith Ienazzeah.
Porro Mathathias, et Eliphalu, et Macenias, et Obededom, et Iehiel, et Ozaziu, in citharis pro octava canebant epinicion.
22 But Chenaniah the chiefe of the Leuites had the charge, bearing ye burden in the charge, for he was able to instruct.
Chonenias autem princeps Levitarum, prophetiæ præerat, ad præcinendam melodiam: erat quippe valde sapiens.
23 And Berechiah and Elkanah were porters for the Arke.
Et Barachias, et Elcana: ianitores arcæ.
24 And Shecaniah and Iehoshaphat and Nethaneel and Amasai, and Zechariah, and Benaiah, and Eliezer the Priestes did blowe with trumpets before the Arke of God, and Obed Edom and Ieiiah were porters for the Arke.
Porro Sebenias, et Iosaphat, et Nathanael, et Amasai, et Zacharias, et Banaias, et Eliezer sacerdotes, clangebant tubis coram arca Dei: et Obededom et Iehias erant ianitores arcæ.
25 So Dauid and the Elders of Israel and the captaines of thousandes went to bring vp the Arke of the couenant of the Lord from the house of Obed Edom with ioye.
Igitur David et omnes maiores natu Israel, et tribuni ierunt ad deportandam arcam fœderis Domini de domo Obededom cum lætitia.
26 And because that God helped the Leuites that bare the Arke of the couenant of the Lord, they offered seuen bullockes and seuen rammes.
Cumque adiuvisset Deus Levitas, qui portabant arcam fœderis Domini, immolabantur septem tauri, et septem arietes.
27 And Dauid had on him a linen garment, as all the Leuites that bare the Arke, and the singers and Chenaniah that had the chiefe charge of the singers: and vpon Dauid was a linnen Ephod.
Porro David erat indutus stola byssina, et universi Levitæ qui portabant arcam, cantoresque et Chonenias princeps prophetiæ inter cantores: David autem etiam indutus erat ephod lineo.
28 Thus all Israel brought vp the Arke of the Lordes couenant with shouting and sounde of cornet, and with trumpets, and with cymbales, making a sound with violes and with harpes.
Universusque Israel deducebant arcam fœderis Domini in iubilo, et sonitu buccinæ, et tubis, et cymbalis, et nablis, et citharis concrepantes.
29 And when the Arke of the couenant of the Lord came into the citie of Dauid, Michal the daughter of Saul looked out at a windowe, and sawe King Dauid dauncing and playing, and she despised him in her heart.
Cumque pervenisset arca fœderis Domini usque ad Civitatem David, Michol filia Saul prospiciens per fenestram, vidit regem David saltantem atque ludentem, et despexit eum in corde suo.
