2 Samuel 6
1 Then David chose 30,000 Israeli men and gathered them together.
Alò, David te ankò ranmase tout mesye chwazi an Israël yo nan kantite trant-mil.
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].
Li te leve pou te ale avèk tout moun ki te avèk li yo Baalé-Juda, pou fè monte soti la, lach Bondye ki rele pa Non an, vrè non dirèk SENYÈ dèzame yo ki enstale sou twòn anwo cheriben an.
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].
Yo te plase lach Bondye a sou yon kabwa tounèf pou yo te kab mennen li soti lakay Abinadab ki te sou ti kolin nan. Se te Uzza avèk Achjo, fis Abinadab la, ki te mennen kabwèt nèf la.
4 Uzzah walked alongside the cart, and Ahio walked in front of it.
Konsa, yo te mennen li avèk lach Bondye a soti lakay Abinadab, ki te sou ti kolin nan. Achjo t ap mache devan lach la.
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.
Antretan, David avèk tout lakay SENYÈ a t ap selebre devan SENYÈ a avèk tout kalite enstriman ki fèt an bwa pichpen, avèk lap, gita, tanbouren, ak kastanèt ak senbal.
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]).
Men lè yo te rive nan glasi Nacon an, Uzza te lonje men l vè lach Bondye a pou te kenbe li, paske bèf kabwèt yo te manke tonbe.
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].
Konsa, kòlè SENYÈ a te brile kont Uzza, epi Bondye te frape li la pou mank respè li a. Li te mouri la akote lach BONDYE a.
8 David was angry because Yahweh had punished Uzzah. So ever since that time, that place has been called ‘The Punishment of Uzzah’.
David te vin fache akoz kòlè SENYÈ a kont Uzza e plas sa a te vin rele Pérets-Uzza (kase antre a Uzza) jis rive jodi a.
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]
Konsa, David te pè SENYÈ a nan jou sa a. Li te di: “Kijan lach SENYÈ a kapab rive kote mwen?”
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].
Konsa, David pa t dakò pou deplase lach la antre nan vil David la avèk li; men David te mennen li akote, pou l rive kay Obed-Édom, Gatyen an.
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.
Konsa, lach SENYÈ a te rete lakay Obed-Édom an, Gatyen an, pandan twa mwa e SENYÈ a te beni Obed-Édom avèk tout lakay li.
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.
Alò, yo te pale a wa David, e te di: “SENYÈ a te beni lakay Obed-Édom avèk tout sa ki pou li akoz lach Bondye a.” Konsa, David te ale monte lach Bondye a soti lakay Obed-Édom pou antre nan vil David la avèk kè kontan.
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.
Lè pòtè lach SENYÈ a yo te fin fè sis pa, li te fè sakrifis a yon bèf kabwèt avèk yon jenn bèf gra.
14 David was wearing [only] a linen cloth wrapped around his waist, and was dancing very energetically to honor Yahweh.
Epi David t ap danse devan SENYÈ a avèk tout fòs li e David te abiye avèk yon efòd fèt ak len.
15 David and the Israeli men took the sacred chest up [to Jerusalem], shouting [loudly] and blowing trumpets.
Konsa, David avèk tout kay Israël la t ap mennen lach SENYÈ a monte avèk gwo kri lajwa e avèk son twonpèt.
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.
Li te vin rive ke lè lach SENYÈ a te antre nan vil David la, ke Mical, fi a Saül la, te gade nan fenèt la e te wè Wa David t ap vòltije danse devan SENYÈ a. Epi li te meprize li nan kè l.
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.
Konsa, yo te mennen lach SENYÈ a e te mete li nan plas li anndan tant ke David te fè monte pou li a. Epi David te ofri ofrann brile avèk ofrann lapè devan SENYÈ a.
18 When David had finished offering those sacrifices, he asked Yahweh, the Commander of the armies [of the angels], to bless the people.
Lè David te fin ofri ofrann brile avèk ofrann lapè yo, li te beni pèp la nan non SENYÈ dèzame a.
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.
Anplis, li te fè separe bay a tout pèp la, yon gato pen, youn ak fwi dat e youn avèk rezen pou chak moun. Apre, tout pèp la te pati, chak moun nan pwòp kay yo.
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!”
Men lè David te retounen pou beni lakay li, Mical, fi a Saül la, te vin parèt pou rankontre David e te di: “Men kijan wa Israël la te onore pwòp tèt li jodi a! Li te dekouvri li menm jodi a nan zye a tout bòn kay ak sèvitè li yo kòm yon nonm ensanse san wont ta vin dekouvri kò li.”
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!
Konsa, David te di a Mical: “Devan SENYÈ aki te chwazi mwen an olye de papa ou e olye de tout kay li a, pou vin dezinye mwen chèf sou pèp SENYÈ a, sou Israël; pou sa, mwen va selebre devan SENYÈ a.
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!”
Mwen va vin konte pa lòt moun kòm pi lejè ke sa, e mwen va vin enb nan pwòp zye m, men avèk bòn sila ke ou te pale yo; avèk yo, mwen va vin onore.”
23 [As a result, ] Saul’s daughter Michal never gave birth to any children.
Mical, fi a Saül la, pa t fè pitit jis rive jou ke li te mouri an.
