< 2 Samuel 6 >

1 Then David chose 30,000 Israeli men and gathered them together.
Da: ibidi da bu Isala: ili dadi gagui dunu noga: i amo gilisimusa: bu wele sia: i. Ilia idi da dunu 30,000 agoane.
2 He led them to the place in Judah [formerly] called Baalah, [now called Kiriath-Jearim]. They went in order to bring from there [to Jerusalem] the sacred chest, which had the name of Yahweh, the leader of the armies of [the angels in] heaven, written on it, and which had the [statues of the] winged creatures on top of it. Between those statues was where Yahweh spoke messages about ruling his people [MTY].
E da ili bisili, Ba: ila agolo, Yuda soge ganodini, amoga oule asi. Ilia da Gode Ea Gousa: su Sema Gagili (amoga da Hina Gode Bagadedafa Ea Dio gala. Ea Fisu da `selabimi’ amoga gadodili ba: sa, ) amo bu gaguli misa: ne asi.
3 The sacred chest was in the house of Abinadab, on top of a hill. They went there, and they put the chest on a new cart. Uzzah and Ahio, the two sons of Abinadab, were guiding [the oxen that were pulling the cart].
Ilia da Gode Ea Gousa: su Sema Gagili amo Abinada: be ea diasu agolo da: iya galu amoga lale, gaguli fula ahoasu gaheabolo bulamagauga hiougima: ne, amo da: iya ligisi. Asa amola Ahaiou (Abinada: be egefela) da amo gaguli fula ahoasu ea ahoabe amo adonana ahoanu.
4 Uzzah walked alongside the cart, and Ahio walked in front of it.
Ahaiou da bisili ahoanu.
5 David and all the Israeli men were celebrating in God’s presence, singing with all their strength and [playing] lyres and harps, and beating tambourines, and clashing castanets and cymbals.
Da: ibidi amola Isala: ili dunu huluane da Hina Gode Ea nodoma: ne, gogosa: amola gesami hea: sa ahoanebe ba: i. Ilia da sani baidama, ilibu, gesolo dabi, amola gisanidulu amo dudududaha ahoasu.
6 But when they came to the place where Nacon threshed grain, the oxen stumbled. So Uzzah put his hand on the sacred chest to (steady it/prevent it from falling [off the cart]).
Ilia da Na: igone widi dadabisu sogebi doaga: loba, bulamagau da didigaboi. Asa da ea lobo ligiagale, Gousa: su Sema Gagili mae sa: ima: ne banene gagui.
7 Yahweh immediately became very angry with Uzzah, and he killed him right there alongside the sacred chest, because he had touched the chest, [and Yahweh had commanded that only the descendants of Levi who help the priests should touch the sacred chest].
Amogaluwane hedolo, Hina Gode da Asama ougi. E da Asa fane legei. Bai e da Gode Ea Gousa: su Sema Gagili amoma nodoiba: le, e da hame beda: i. Asa da amogawi Gousa: su Sema Gagili dafulili bogoi dagoi.
8 David was angry because Yahweh had punished Uzzah. So ever since that time, that place has been called ‘The Punishment of Uzzah’.
Amaiba: le, amogainini amo sogebi ea dio da `Bilese Asa’ dialu. (Amo ea dawa: loma: ne da “Asa ea se Iasu”). Hina Gode da ougili Asa medole legeiba: le, Da: ibidi amola da ougi bagade ba: i.
9 David was [also] afraid of [what else] Yahweh [would do to punish them], so he said, “(How can I take the sacred chest with me [to Jerusalem]?/I am afraid to take the sacred chest with me [to Jerusalem].)” [RHQ]
Amalalu, Da: ibidi da Hina Godeba: le beda: i galu. E da amane sia: i, “Na da habodane Gousa: su Sema Gagili amo bu gaguli masa: bela: ?”
10 So he did not want to take the sacred chest to Jerusalem. Instead, they took it to another place; they took it to the house of Obed-Edom, from Gath [city].
Amaiba: le, e da amo Yelusaleme moilai bai bagadega hame gaguli masunu dawa: i. E da logo yolesili, dunu ea dio amo Oubede Idome (Ga: de moilai bai bagade dunu) amo ea diasuga Gousa: su Sema Gagili gaguli asi.
11 They left the sacred chest in the house of Obed-Edom for three months, and [during that time] Yahweh blessed Obed-Edom and his family.
Gousa: su Sema Gagili amo da amogawi oubi udiana dialu. Amola Hina Gode da Oubede Idome amola ea sosogo fi ilima hahawane dogolegele hamoi.
12 Later, people told David, “Yahweh has blessed Obed-Edom and his family because [he is taking care] of the sacred chest!” When David heard that, he [and some other men] went to Obed-Edom’s house, and very joyfully brought the sacred chest from there to Jerusalem.
Hina Da: ibidi da Oubede Idome amola ea sosogo fi da Gousa: su Sema Gagili ouligibiba: le, Hina Gode Ea ilima amola ilia gagui amoma hahawane dogolegele hamosu, amo nabi. Amaiba: le, e da gilisisu bagade hamone, Gousa: su Sema Gagili amo Oubede Idome ea diasuga lale, bu Yelusaleme moilai bai bagadega gaguli asi.
13 [This time, descendants of Levi] were carrying the sacred chest, but when they had walked only six steps, they stopped, and there David killed a bull and a fat calf, and offered them to Yahweh for a sacrifice.
Da: ibidi da dunu amo da Gousa: su Sema Gagili gaguli ahoasu, ilia da emo gafeyale osa: le gale aligima: ne sia: i. Amalalu, e da bulamagau gawali amola sefena bulamagau mano Godema gobele sali.
14 David was wearing [only] a linen cloth wrapped around his waist, and was dancing very energetically to honor Yahweh.
Da: ibidi da ahea: iai abula buluale gale banene idiniginisi. E da Hina Godema nodone, ea gasa defele bagadewane giginisa lai.
15 David and the Israeli men took the sacred chest up [to Jerusalem], shouting [loudly] and blowing trumpets.
Amola e amola Isala: ili dunu huluane ilia da nodone wele sisa: ne amola `dalabede’ fulabolalu, ilia da Gousa: su Sema Gagili Yelusaleme moilai bai bagadega gaguli asi.
16 While they were carrying the sacred chest into the city, [David’s wife] Michal, who was Saul’s daughter, looked out the window [of her house]. She saw King David leaping and dancing to honor Yahweh. So she was disgusted with 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.
17 They brought the sacred chest into the tent that David had erected for it. Then David gave to Yahweh offerings to be completely burned [on an altar], and other offerings to maintain fellowship with Yahweh.
Ilia da Gousa: su Sema Gagili amo gaguli misini, abula diasu amo Da: ibidi ea hamoi, amo ganodini ligisi. Amalalu, Da: ibidi da Hina Godema gobele salasu amola Hahawane Gilisili olofole Iasu amo hamoi.
18 When David had finished offering those sacrifices, he asked Yahweh, the Commander of the armies [of the angels], to bless the people.
E da gobele salasu hamoi dagoloba, e da Hina Gode Bagadedafa Ea Dioba: le, ea fi dunuma hahawane dogolegele sia: i.
19 He also distributed food to all the people. To each Israeli man and woman he gave a loaf of bread, some meat, and a raisin cake. Then all the people returned to their homes.
Amola e da ili huluane ilima ha: i manu sagoi. E da Isala: ili dunu amola uda huluane afae afae ilima agi ga: gi afae amola hu damui gobele gala: i afae amola fofogai waini fage mogili ilima sagoi. Amalalu, dunu huluane da ilia diasuga buhagi.
20 When David went home to [ask Yahweh to] bless his family, his wife Michal came out to meet him. She said to him, “Maybe you, the king of Israel, [think that you] [IRO] were honoring yourself today, but really, you acted like a fool, uncovering yourself while the female servants of your officials were watching!”
Amogalu fa: no, Da: ibidi da hi diasu ea sosogo fi gousa: musa: ahoanoba, Maiga: le da gadili e ba: la misi. E amane sia: i, “Isala: ili hina bagade da wali eso ea dio gaguia gadoma: ne hidale bagade hamoi! E da gagaoui dunu agoane, ea ouligisu dunu ilia hawa: hamosu a: fini ba: ma: ne, ea abula gisa: le fasi!”
21 David replied to Michal, “[I was doing that] to honor Yahweh, who chose me instead of your father and other members of his family, to be the king of the Israeli people, the people who belong to Yahweh. And I will [continue to] dance to honor Yahweh!
Da: ibidi da bu adole i, “Na da Hina Godema nodone gigini. Bai E da dia ada, ea sosogo amo fisili, na Ea fi Isala: ili ouligima: ne ilegei dagoi. Amola na da mae yolesili, Hina Godema nodoma: ne bu gigininimu.
22 [Even though you think that what I did] was disgraceful, I will continue to do it even more. You may despise me [because of what I did], but the women whom you were talking about will honor me!”
Amola bu gogosiasu ba: mu. Di da na da hamedei dunu dawa: mu. Be amo ouligisu dunu ilia hawa: hamosu a: fini da na nodone ba: mu.”
23 [As a result, ] Saul’s daughter Michal never gave birth to any children.
Solo idiwi Maiga: le da gebewane aligime esalu.
