< 2 Samuel 6 >

1 And David again gathered together all the chosen men of Israel, thirty thousand.
Yon lòt fwa ankò, David reyini tout pi bon sòlda pèp Izrayèl la. Sa te fè antou trantmil (30.000) gason.
2 And David arose, and went with all the people who were with him to Baalah, that is, Kiriath Jearim of Judah, to bring up from there the ark of God, which is called there by the name of the LORD enthroned on the cherubim.
Li leve, li pati pou Balat nan peyi Jida ansanm ak tout sòlda ki te avè l' yo. Li tapral chache Bwat Kontra Bondye a, bwat ki pote non Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a, Seyè ki gen fotèy li anwo zanj cheriben yo.
3 And they set the ark of God on a new cart, and brought it out of the house of Abinadab that was on the hill. And Uzza and Ahio, the sons of Abinadab, guided the cart
Yo pran Bwat la kay Abenadab sou mòn lan, mete l' sou yon kabwa tou nèf, yo pote l' ale. Ouza ak Akiyo, pitit gason Abenadab yo, t'ap mennen kabwa
4 with the ark; and Ahio was walking in front of the ark.
kote yo te mete Bwat Kontra Bondye a. Akiyo t'ap mache devan kabwa a.
5 And David and the children of Israel played before the LORD with all their strength and with songs, and with harps, and with stringed instruments, and with tambourines, and with castanets, and with cymbals.
David ansanm ak tout moun pèp Izrayèl yo menm t'ap danse ak tout nanm yo. Yo t'ap chante fè lwanj Seyè a. Yo t'ap jwe gita ak bandjo. Yo t'ap bat tanbou, tanbouren ak senbal.
6 And when they came to the threshing floor of Nodan, Uzza reached out his hand to the ark of God, to steady it; for the oxen stumbled.
Lè yo rive bò glasi Nakon an, bèf yo bite, yo manke tonbe. Ouza lonje men l', li soutni Bwat Kontra a.
7 And the LORD became angry at Uzza; and God struck him there for his error; and there he died before God.
Men Seyè a move sou Ouza, li touye l' frèt paske li pa t' gen dwa manyen Bwat Kontra a. Ouza mouri la toupre Bwat Kontra a.
8 And David was displeased, because the LORD had broken forth on Uzza; and he called that place Perez Uzza, to this day.
David menm te fache dèske Seyè a te touye Ouza konsa. Se poutèt sa depi lè sa a yo rele kote sa a Perèz-Ouza, non ki rete pou li jouk jounen jòdi a.
9 And David was afraid of the LORD that day; and he said, "How can the ark of God come to me?" Now the ark of the LORD arrived,
Lè sa a, David vin pè Seyè a. Li di li pa wè ki jan pou l' pran Bwat Kontra a lakay li.
10 but David was not willing to move the ark of the LORD with him to the City of David; so David diverted it to the house of Obed-Edom the Gittite.
Se konsa li pran desizyon pou l' pa pote Bwat Kontra Seyè a lakay li nan Lavil David la. Li fè yo pote l' kay Obèdedon, yon moun lavil Gat.
11 And the ark of the LORD remained in the house of Obed-Edom the Gittite three months, and the LORD blessed Obed-Edom and all his house.
Bwat la pase twa mwa lakay li. Seyè a te beni Obèdedon ansanm ak tout moun lakay li.
12 And it was told king David, saying, "The LORD has blessed the house of Obed-Edom and all that belongs to him because of the ark of God." And David said, "I will bring back the blessing to my house." And David went and brought up the ark of the LORD from the house of Obed-Edom into the City of David with joy.
Lè David tande jan Seyè a te beni Obèdedon ak tout moun lakay li, jan zafè l' t'ap mache byen poutèt Bwat Kontra a, David pati, li ale kay Obèdedon, li pran Bwat Kontra Seyè a pou pote l' nan Lavil David la avèk gwo seremoni sou tout wout la.
13 And it was so, that, when those who bore the ark had gone six steps, he sacrificed an ox and a fattened calf.
Lè moun ki t'ap pote Bwat Kontra Seyè a fè sis pa annavan, David fè yo rete, li touye yon gwo towo ak yon ti towo bèf chatre pou Seyè a.
14 And David danced before the LORD with all his might; and he was clothed in a linen ephod.
Apre sa, David pran danse ak tout nanm li devan Seyè a. Li pa t' gen pase yon moso twal fen blan mare nan ren l'.
15 And David and all Israel brought up the ark of the LORD with shouting, and with the sound of the trumpet.
Se konsa, li menm ak tout pèp Izrayèl la, yo pote Bwat Kontra Seyè a lavil Jerizalèm. Yo t'ap fè fèt, yo t'ap kònen twonpèt sou tout wout la.
16 Now, as the ark entered the City of David, Mikal the daughter of Saul looked out at the window, and saw king David leaping and dancing before the LORD; and she despised him in her heart.
Antan yo t'ap antre ak Bwat Kontra a nan lavil David la, Mikal, pitit fi Sayil la, te kanpe bò yon fennèt ap gade. Li wè David ki t'ap danse fè laviwonn devan Seyè a. Li vin pa gen yon san pou li ankò.
17 And they brought in the ark of the LORD, and set it in its place, in the midst of the tent that David had set up for it; and David offered burnt offerings and peace offerings before the LORD.
Yo pote Bwat Kontra Seyè a, yo mete l' nan plas li nan tant David te moute pou li a. Apre sa, David ofri bèt pou boule nèt pou Seyè a ak ofrann pou di Bondye mèsi.
18 And when David had made an end of offering the burnt offering and the peace offerings, he blessed the people in the name of the LORD of hosts.
Lè David fin fè ofrann sa yo, li beni pèp la nan non Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a.
19 And he gave to all the people, even among the whole multitude of Israel, both to men and women, to everyone a portion of bread, a date cake, and a raisin cake. So all the people departed everyone to his house.
Li separe manje bay tout moun pèp Izrayèl yo, fanm kou gason. Li ba yo chak yon pen, yon moso vyann woti ak yon pen rezen. Lèfini, tout moun al lakay yo.
20 And then David returned to bless his household. Mikal the daughter of Saul came out to meet David. And she greeted him, and said, "How glorious the king of Israel was today, who uncovered himself today in the eyes of the servants of his servants, as one of the vain fellows shamelessly uncovers himself."
Apre sa, David al lakay li pou l' beni fanmi pa l' tou. Men, Mikal, pitit fi Sayil la, soti vin kontre li. Epi li di l' konsa: -Ala yon bèl bagay wa pèp Izrayèl la fè pou tèt li jòdi a! Tou sa yon vakabon ta fè. Li wete rad sou li devan tout sèvant moun k'ap sèvi avè l' yo!
21 And David said to Mikal, "I was dancing before the LORD. Blessed be the LORD, who chose me above your father, and above all his house, to appoint me prince over his people Israel; therefore I will celebrate before the LORD.
David reponn li: -Se vre. Mwen t'ap danse pou m' te fè lwanj Seyè a ki te pito m' pase papa ou ak tout fanmi ou. Li chwazi m', li mete m' chèf pèp Izrayèl la, pèp li a. M'ap toujou ka danse devan l' pou m' fè lwanj li.
22 And I will be yet more vile than this, and will be lowly in your eyes. But of the servants of whom you have spoken, they shall honor me."
M'ap desanm tèt mwen pi ba toujou pase sa. Dapre ou, se desann m'ap desann sousi m'. Men, sèvant w'ap pale yo ap toujou ka leve m' anlè.
23 And Mikal the daughter of Saul had no child to the day of her death.
Mikal, pitit fi Sayil la, pa janm fè pitit jouk li mouri.
