1 Chronicles 13
1 And David consulted with the officers of the thousands and hundreds, and with every leader.
大衛與千夫長、百夫長，就是一切首領商議。
2 And David said unto all the congregation of Israel, if it seem good unto you, and if it be of the Lord our God, let us send widely about unto our brethren who are left in all the lands of Israel, and with them unto the priests and Levites who are in their cities and open districts, that they may gather themselves together unto us.
大衛對以色列全會眾說：「你們若以為美，見這事是出於耶和華－我們的上帝，我們就差遣人走遍以色列地，見我們未來的弟兄，又見住在有郊野之城的祭司利未人，使他們都到這裏來聚集。
3 And let us bring round the ark of our God to us; for we have inquired not at it in the days of Saul.
我們要把上帝的約櫃運到我們這裏來；因為在掃羅年間，我們沒有在約櫃前求問上帝。」
4 And all the congregation said that this should be done; for the king was right in the eyes of all the people.
全會眾都說可以如此行；這事在眾民眼中都看為好。
5 So David assembled all Israel together, from Shichor of Egypt even unto the entrance of Chemath, to bring the ark of God from Kiryath-ye'arim.
於是，大衛將以色列人從埃及的西曷河直到哈馬口都招聚了來，要從基列‧耶琳將上帝的約櫃運來。
6 And David went up, with all Israel, to Ba'alah, [that is] to Kiryath-ye'arim, which belonged to Judah, to bring up thence the ark of God the Lord, that dwelleth between the cherubim, whose name is called [on it].
大衛率領以色列眾人上到巴拉，就是屬猶大的基列‧耶琳，要從那裏將約櫃運來。這約櫃就是坐在二基路伯上耶和華上帝留名的約櫃。
7 And they conveyed the ark of God in a new wagon out of the house of Abinadab: and 'Uzza and Achyo guided the wagon.
他們將上帝的約櫃從亞比拿達的家裏抬出來，放在新車上。烏撒和亞希約趕車。
8 And David and all Israel played before God with all their might, and with singing, and on harps, and on psalteries, and on tambourines, and with cymbals, and with trumpets.
大衛和以色列眾人在上帝前用琴、瑟、鑼、鼓、號作樂，極力跳舞歌唱。
9 And when they came as far as the threshing-floor of Kidon, 'Uzza put forth his hand to take hold of the ark; for the oxen shook it.
到了基頓的禾場；因為牛失前蹄，烏撒就伸手扶住約櫃。
10 And the anger of the Lord was kindled against 'Uzza, and he smote him, because he had put forth his hand toward the ark: and he died there before God.
耶和華向他發怒，因他伸手扶住約櫃擊殺他，他就死在上帝面前。
11 And it was grievious to David, because the Lord had suddenly taken away 'Uzza; and he called that place Perez-'uzza [[Breach of 'Uzza]] until this day.
大衛因耶和華擊殺烏撒，心裏愁煩，就稱那地方為毗列斯‧烏撒，直到今日。
12 And David was afraid of God that day, saying, How shall I bring home to me the ark of God?
那日，大衛懼怕上帝，說：「上帝的約櫃怎可運到我這裏來？」
13 So David removed not the ark unto himself into the city of David, but had it carried round into the house of 'Obed-edom the Gittite.
於是大衛不將約櫃運進大衛的城，卻運到迦特人俄別‧以東的家中。
14 And the ark of God remained in the house of 'Obed-edom, in his house, three months. And the Lord blessed the house of 'Obed-edom, and all that belonged to him.
上帝的約櫃在俄別‧以東家中三個月，耶和華賜福給俄別‧以東的家和他一切所有的。
