1 Chronicles 15
1 David [commanded his workers to] build some houses for him in Jerusalem. He also told them to set up a tent in which to put the Sacred Chest.
Da: ibidi da Da: ibidi Moilai Bai Bagade amo ganodini ea diasu gaguli gagai. Amola, e da Gode Ea Gousa: su Sema Gagili ligisimusa: , abula diasu gagui.
2 He said, “Only the descendants of Levi are permitted to carry God’s Sacred Chest, because they are the ones whom God chose to carry it and to serve him forever.”
Amalalu, e amane sia: i, “Lifai fi dunu, ilia fawane da Gode Ea Gousa: su Sema Gagili gaguli masunu. Bai Gode da ilia amo gaguli masa: ne amola Ea hawa: eso huluane hamonanoma: ne ilegei.
3 David summoned all the people of Israel to come to Jerusalem. He wanted the Sacred Chest of Yahweh to be put in the place that he had made for it.
Amaiba: le, Gode Ea Gousa: su Sema Gagili amo Yelusaleme moilai bai bagadega gaguli misa: ne, Da: ibidi da Isala: ili dunu huluane ema misa: ne sia: i.
4 He summoned the descendants of Aaron, [who was the first Supreme Priest, ] and the other descendants of Levi.
Amalalu, e da Elane egaga fi dunu amola Lifai fi dunu huluane, ema misa: ne sia: i.
5 120 descendants of Kohath, who was Levi’s second son, came, with Uriel their leader.
Lifai fi sosogo afae da Gouha: de sosogo fi. Gouha: de sosogo amoga, dunu ea dio amo Iuiele da misi. E da 120 dunu agoane ouligi.
6 There were 220 descendants of Merari, Levi’s third son, who came, with Asaiah their leader.
Milalai sosogo amoga, Asa: ia da misi. E da dunu 220 agoane ouligi.
7 There were 130 descendants of Gershon, Levi’s first son, who came, with Joel their leader.
Gesione sosogo amoga, Youele da misi. E da dunu 130 agoane ouligi.
8 There were 200 people from Elizaphan’s clan who came, with Shemaiah their leader.
Elisa: ifa: ne sosogo amoga, Siema: ia da misi. E da dunu 200 agoane ouligi.
9 There were 80 people from Hebron’s clan who came, with Eliel their leader.
Hibalone sosogo amoga, Ilaiele da misi. E da dunu 80 agoane ouligi.
10 And there were 112 people from Uzziel’s clan who came, with Amminadab their leader.
Asaiele sosogo amoga, Aminada: be da misi. E da dunu 112 agoane ouligi.
11 David summoned the priests Zadok and Abiathar and these [other] descendants of Levi: Uriel, Asaiah, Joel, Shemaiah, Eliel, and Amminadab.
Da: ibidi da gobele salasu dunu Sa: idoge amola Abaia: da amola Lifai dunu gafeale (Iuliele, Asa: ia, Youele, Siema: ia, Ilaiele amola Aminada: be) amo ema misa: ne sia: i.
12 David said to them, “You are the leaders of the clans descended from Levi. You and the other descendants of Levi must purify yourselves, in order to [be able to do this special work for Yahweh. You must] bring the Sacred Chest of Yahweh, the God of us Israelis, up to the place that I have made for it [here in Jerusalem].
E da Lifai dunuma amane sia: i, “Dilia da Lifai sosogo fi ilima ouligisu dunu. Dilia amola dilia fi dunu, nigima: noga: le dodofema: ne, hano ulima! Bai dilia da Isala: ili Hina Gode Ea Gousa: su Sema Gagili, amo na hamoi sogebiga gaguli misunu.
13 The first time that we tried to bring it, we did not ask Yahweh how we should carry it {it should be carried}. You [descendants of Levi] were not the ones who carried it, so Yahweh our God punished us.”
Ninia da musa: amo gaguli misunu galu. Be dilia da amo gaguli misa: ne hame madelaiba: le, ninia Hina Gode da ninima se iasu i. Bai ninia Ema nodone sia: ne gadosu hou da defele hame ba: i.
14 Then the priests and the [other] descendants of Levi [performed the rituals to] purify themselves, in order that it would be proper for them to do the work of carrying the Sacred Chest of Yahweh, the God of us Israeli people.
Amalalu, Isala: ili Hina Gode Ea Gousa: su Sema Gagili gaguli masa: ne momagemusa: , gobele salasu dunu amola Lifai fi dunu ilia nigima: noga: le dodofei.
15 The descendants of Levi [inserted] the poles [into the rings on] the Sacred Chest so that with them, they could carry the Sacred Chest on their shoulders, like Moses had commanded, and like Yahweh had said that they should.
Lifai dunu da Hina Gode Ea hamoma: ne sia: i Mousese ea lafidili sia: i defele, ilia da Gode Ea Gousa: su Sema gagili, doufale, lelegele gisawane asi.
16 David told the leaders of the descendants of Levi to appoint some of their relatives to sing joyful songs and play lyres, harps, and cymbals [while they were carrying the Sacred Chest].
Da: ibidi da sia: beba: le, Lifai fi ouligisu dunu ilia da Lifai fi dunu mogili, gesami hea: ma: ne amola sani baidama amola giga: mesa duma: ne ilegei.
17 So they appointed Heman and his relatives Asaph and Ethan. Heman was the son of Joel; Asaph was the son of Berekiah. Ethan, a descendant of Merari, was Kushaiah’s son.
Ilia da gesami hea: su fi amoga, dunu da balasega hamoi giga: mesa duma: ne ilegei. Amo dunu da, Hima: ne (Youele egefe), Hima: ne sosogo fi dunu A: isa: fe (Belegaia egefe) amola Milalai fi dunu Ida: ne (Giusia: ia egefe). Amo dunu fidima: ne, ilia da hagudu dedei Lifai dunu amo sani baidama hegesuane duma: ne, ilegei. Amo dunu da Segalaia, Ya: isiele, Similamode, Yihaiele, Unai, Ilaia: be, Ma: iasia amola Bina: ia. Hagumui sani baidama duma: ne, ilia da amo Lifai fi dunu ilegei: - Ma: didaia, Ilaifelehiu, Miginia, A:isasaia amola Debolo Diasu sosodo aligisu dunu (Oubede Idome amola Yiaiele).
18 There was also another group of descendants of Levi who were appointed: Zechariah, Jaaziel, Shemiramoth, Jehiel, Unni, Eliab, Benaiah, Maaseiah, Mattithiah, Eliphelehu, Mikneiah, and two of the Sacred Tent gatekeepers, Obed-Edom and Jeiel.
19 Heman, Asaph and Ethan sang, and also played bronze cymbals.
20 Zechariah, Aziel, Shemiramoth, Jehiel, Unni, Eliab, Maaseiah, and Benaiah played lyres.
21 Mattithiah, Eliphelehu, Mikneiah, Obed-Edom, Jeiel and Azaziah played harps.
22 Kenaniah, the leader of the descendants of Levi, directed the singing because he was very skilled at doing that.
Ilia da Lifai fi dusu liligi dawa: dunu huluane ouligima: ne, Belegaia, Elega: ina, Oubede Idome amola Yiaiele amo ilegei.
23 Berekiah and Elkanah were two of the men who guarded the Sacred Chest.
Ilia da Gode Ea Gousa: su Sema Gagili sosodo aligima: ne, Belegaia, Elega: ina, Oubede Idome amola Yiaiele amo ilegei. Ilia da Gode Ea Gousa: su Sema Gagili midadi dalabede fulaboma: ne, gobele salasu dunu ilelegei. Ilia da Siebanaia, Yosiafa: de, Nida: niele, Amasa: iai, Segalaia, Bina: ia amola Elia: isa.
24 The priests Shebaniah, Joshaphat, Nethanel, Amasai, Zechariah, Benaiah, and Eliezer were appointed to blow trumpets in front of the Sacred Chest. Obed-Edom and Jehiah also guarded the Sacred Chest.
25 David and the Israeli leaders and the officers who commanded 1,000 soldiers went to bring the Sacred Chest back from Obed-Edom’s house. They were very joyful as they brought it to Jerusalem.
Hina bagade Da: ibidi, Isala: ili ouligisu dunu amola dadi gagui wa: i ouligisu dunu da Oubede Idome ea diasuga Gode Ea Gousa: su Sema Gagili lamusa: asi. E da hahawane gilisisu bagade hamone, Gousa: su Sema Gagili amo Oubede Idome ea diasuga lale, bu Yelusaleme moilai bai bagadega gaguli asi.
26 God helped the descendants of Levi who carried the Sacred Chest of Yahweh; therefore David and the leaders sacrificed seven bulls and seven (rams/male sheep) [to thank him].
Gode da Lifai dunu amo da Sema Gagili gaguli masa: ne esalu, amo noga: le fidima: ne, ilia da bulamagau gawali fesuale amola sibi fesuale gala Godema gobele sali.
27 All the descendants of Levi who carried the Sacred Chest, all the singers, and Kenaniah, the man who directed those who sang, wore robes of fine white linen and sacred vests made of fine linen. David also wore a sacred vest made of white linen.
Da: ibidi, gesami hea: lala dusu dunu, ilia ouligisu dunu Sienanaia amola Lifai dunu amo da Sema Gagili gaguli ahoa, ili huluane da ahea: iai abula noga: idafa buluale gale idiniginisi. Da: ibidi amola da ahea: iai abula Ifode (da: i salasu agoai) ga: i.
28 So all of the Israeli people joined in bringing the Sacred Chest up [to Jerusalem]. They shouted [joyfully, while the musicians] blew horns and trumpets, and played cymbals, lyres, and harps.
Amola e amola Isala: ili dunu huluane ilia da nodone wele sisa: ne amola ‘dalabede’ fulabolala, edado fasu dunana, ilia da Gousa: su Sema Gagili Yelusaleme moilai bai bagadega gaguli asi.
29 While they were bringing the Sacred Chest into Jerusalem, Saul’s daughter Michal watched them, looking out of a window. When she saw King David dancing and celebrating, she despised him.
Ilia da Gousa: su Sema Gagili amo Yelusaleme ganodini gaguli ahoanoba, Solo idiwi Maiga: le da fo misa: ne agenesi amoga gadili ba: lu, hina bagade Da: ibidi giginisa lalebe amola soagala: ga gadolalebe ba: beba: le, e higale ba: i.
