1 Chronicles 13
1 And David consulted with the captains of thousands and hundreds, and with every leader.
E teve David conselho com os capitães dos milhares, e dos centos, e com todos os principes.
2 And David said unto all the congregation of Israel, If it seem good unto you, and that it be of the LORD our God, let us send abroad unto our brethren every where, that are left in all the land of Israel, and with them also to the priests and Levites which are in their cities and suburbs, that they may gather themselves unto us:
E disse David a toda a congregação de Israel: Se bem vos parece, e que vem do Senhor nosso Deus, enviemos depressa mensageiros a todos os nossos outros irmãos em todas as terras de Israel, e aos sacerdotes, e aos levitas com elles nas cidades e nos seus arrabaldes, para que se ajuntem comnosco.
3 And let us bring again the ark of our God to us: for we enquired not at it in the days of Saul.
E tornemos a trazer para nós a arca do nosso Deus; porque não a buscámos nos dias de Saul.
4 And all the congregation said that they would do so: for the thing was right in the eyes of all the people.
Então disse toda a congregação que assim se fizesse; porque este negocio pareceu recto aos olhos de todo o povo.
5 So David gathered all Israel together, from Shihor of Egypt even unto the entering of Hemath, to bring the ark of God from Kirjathjearim.
Ajuntou pois David a todo o Israel desde Sihor do Egypto até chegar a Hamath; para trazer a arca de Deus de Kiriath-jearim.
6 And David went up, and all Israel, to Baalah, that is, to Kirjathjearim, which belonged to Judah, to bring up thence the ark of God the LORD, that dwells between the cherubims, whose name is called on it.
E então David com todo o Israel subiu a Baala e d'ali a Kiriath-jearim, que está em Judah, para fazer subir d'ali a arca de Deus, o Senhor que habita entre os cherubins, sobre a qual é invocado o seu nome.
7 And they carried the ark of God in a new cart out of the house of Abinadab: and Uzza and Ahio drove the cart.
E levaram a arca de Deus sobre um carro novo, da casa de Abinadab: e Uza e Ahio guiavam o carro.
8 And David and all Israel played before God with all their might, and with singing, and with harps, and with psalteries, and with timbrels, and with cymbals, and with trumpets.
E David, e todo o Israel, tocava perante Deus com toda a sua força; em canticos, e com harpas, e com alaudes, e com tamboris, e com cymbalos, e com trombetas.
9 And when they came unto the threshing floor of Chidon, Uzza put forth his hand to hold the ark; for the oxen stumbled.
E, chegando á eira de Chidon, estendeu Uza a sua mão, para ter mão na arca; porque os bois tropeçavam.
10 And the anger of the LORD was kindled against Uzza, and he stroke him, because he put his hand to the ark: and there he died before God.
Então se accendeu a ira do Senhor contra Uza, e o feriu, por ter estendido a sua mão á arca: e morreu ali perante Deus.
11 And David was displeased, because the LORD had made a breach upon Uzza: wherefore that place is called Perezuzza to this day.
E David se encheu de tristeza de que o Senhor houvesse aberto brecha em Uza; pelo que chamou áquelle logar Perez-uza, até ao dia d'hoje.
12 And David was afraid of God that day, saying, How shall I bring the ark of God home to me?
E aquelle dia temeu David ao Senhor, dizendo: Como trarei a mim a arca de Deus?
13 So David brought not the ark home to himself to the city of David, but carried it aside into the house of Obededom the Gittite.
Pelo que David não trouxe a arca a si, á cidade de David; porém a fez retirar á casa de Obed-edom, o getheo.
14 And the ark of God remained with the family of Obededom in his house three months. And the LORD blessed the house of Obededom, and all that he had.
Assim ficou a arca de Deus com a familia de Obed-edom, tres mezes em sua casa: e o Senhor abençoou a casa de Obed-edom, e tudo quanto tinha.
