1 Chronicles 13
1 And David consulted with the rulers of thousands and hundreds, even with every chief ruler.
大卫与千夫长、百夫长，就是一切首领商议。
2 And David said to all the convocation of Israel, If, unto you, it seemeth to be good, and from Yahweh our God, we will urgently send unto our brethren who remain in all the lands of Israel, and, with them, the priests and the Levites in their pasture-land cities, —that they may gather together unto us;
大卫对以色列全会众说：“你们若以为美，见这事是出于耶和华—我们的 神，我们就差遣人走遍以色列地，见我们未来的弟兄，又见住在有郊野之城的祭司利未人，使他们都到这里来聚集。
3 and let us bring round the ark of our God, unto us, —For they sought it not, in the days of Saul.
我们要把 神的约柜运到我们这里来；因为在扫罗年间，我们没有在约柜前求问 神。”
4 Than said all the convocation, that it should be done thus, —for right was the thing, in the eyes of all the people.
全会众都说可以如此行；这事在众民眼中都看为好。
5 So David convoked all Israel, from Shihor of Egypt, even unto the entering in of Hamath, —to bring the ark of God from Kiriath-jearim.
于是，大卫将以色列人从埃及的西曷河直到哈马口都招聚了来，要从基列·耶琳将 神的约柜运来。
6 And David went up and all Israel to Baalah, unto Kiriath-jearim, which pertaineth to Judah, —to bring up from thence, the ark of God—Yahweh who inhabiteth the cherubim, on which is called the Name.
大卫率领以色列众人上到巴拉，就是属犹大的基列·耶琳，要从那里将约柜运来。这约柜就是坐在二基路伯上耶和华 神留名的约柜。
7 And they carried the ark of God, upon a new waggon, out of the house of Aminadab, —and, Uzza and Ahio, were driving the waggon.
他们将 神的约柜从亚比拿达的家里抬出来，放在新车上。乌撒和亚希约赶车。
8 And, David and all Israel, were dancing for joy before God, with all boldness, and with songs and with lyres, and with harps and with timbrels, and with cymbals, and with trumpets.
大卫和以色列众人在 神前用琴、瑟、锣、鼓、号作乐，极力跳舞歌唱。
9 And, when they came as far as the threshing-floor of Chidon, Uzza thrust forth his hand, to seize the ark, for the oxen were restive.
到了基顿的禾场；因为牛失前蹄，乌撒就伸手扶住约柜。
10 Then was kindled the anger of Yahweh against Uzza, and he smote him, because he thrust forth his hand unto the ark, —and he died there, before God.
耶和华向他发怒，因他伸手扶住约柜击杀他，他就死在 神面前。
11 And it was a sadness unto David, that Yahweh had broken in with a breach against Uzza, —and he called that place Perez-uzza, [as it is called] unto this day.
大卫因耶和华击杀乌撒，心里愁烦，就称那地方为毗列斯·乌撒，直到今日。
12 And David was afraid of God, on that day, saying, —How can I bring unto me, the ark of God?
那日，大卫惧怕 神，说：“神的约柜怎可运到我这里来？”
13 So David removed not the ark unto him, into the city of David, —but took it aside into the house of Obed-edom, the Gittite.
于是大卫不将约柜运进大卫的城，却运到迦特人俄别·以东的家中。
14 And the ark of God remained with the household of Obed-edom, in his house, three months, —and Yahweh blessed the household of Obed-edom, and all that he had.
神的约柜在俄别·以东家中三个月，耶和华赐福给俄别·以东的家和他一切所有的。
