2 Samuel 6
1 Again, David assembled all [the] chosen [men] of Israel, thirty thousand,
Derefter samlede David atter alle udvalgte i Israel, tredive Tusinde.
2 And David arose, and went with all the people that [were] with him from Baale of Judah, to bring up from thence the ark of God, whose name is called by the name of the LORD of hosts that dwelleth [between] the cherubim.
Og David gjorde sig rede og gik hen, han og alt Folket, som var hos ham, fra Baale-Juda, for derfra at føre Guds Ark op, over hvilken der nævnes et Navn, den Herre Zebaoths Navn, som sidder over Keruber.
3 And they set the ark of God upon a new cart, and brought it out of the house of Abinadab that [was] in Gibeah: and Uzzah and Ahio the sons of Abinadab drove the new cart.
Og de førte Guds Ark paa en ny Vogn og toge den fra Abinadabs Hus, som var paa Højen; men Ussa og Ahio, Abinadabs Sønner, førte den nye Vogn.
4 And they brought it out of the house of Abinadab, which [was] at Gibeah, accompanying the ark of God: and Ahio went before the ark.
Saa toge de den fra Abinadabs Hus, som var paa Højen, og fulgte med Guds Ark; men Ahio gik foran Arken.
5 And David and all the house of Israel played before the LORD on all manner of [instruments made of] fir wood, even on harps, and on psalteries, and on timbrels, and on cornets, and on cymbals.
Da legede David og alt Israels Hus for Herrens Ansigt med alle Haande Strengeleg af Fyrretræ, med Harper og med Citere og med Trommer og med Bjælder og med Cymbler.
6 And when they came to Nachon's threshing-floor, Uzzah put forth [his hand] to the ark of God, and took hold of it: for the oxen shook [it].
Og der de kom til Nakons Lade, da udrakte Ussa Haanden til Guds Ark og greb fat paa den; thi Øksnene vege ud af Sporet.
7 And the anger of the LORD was kindled against Uzzah, and God smote him there for [his] error; and there he died by the ark of God.
Da optændtes Herrens Vrede imod Ussa, og Gud slog ham der for hans Forseelses Skyld, og han døde der ved Guds Ark.
8 And David was displeased, because the LORD had made a breach upon Uzzah: and he called the name of the place Perez-uzzah to this day.
Da blev David ilde tilfreds, fordi Herren havde gjort et Skaar paa Ussa, og man kaldte det Sted Perez-Ussa indtil denne Dag.
9 And David was afraid of the LORD that day, and said, How shall the ark of the LORD come to me?
Og David frygtede for Herren samme Dag og sagde: Hvorledes skal Herrens Ark komme til mig?
10 So David would not remove the ark of the LORD to him into the city of David: but David carried it aside into the house of Obed-edom the Gittite.
Og David vilde ikke føre Herrens Ark til sig i Davids Stad; men David lod den føre hen til Githiteren Obed-Edoms Hus.
11 And the ark of the LORD continued in the house of Obed-edom the Gittite three months: and the LORD blessed Obed-edom and all his household.
Og Herrens Ark blev tre Maaneder i Githiteren Obed-Edoms Hus, og Herren velsignede Obed-Edom og alt hans Hus.
12 And it was told king David, saying, The LORD hath blessed the house of Obed-edom, and all that [pertaineth] to him, because of the ark of God. So David went and brought up the ark of God from the house of Obed-edom into the city of David with gladness.
Og det blev Kong David tilkendegivet, idet der sagdes: Herren har velsignet Obed-Edoms Hus og alt det, han har, for Guds Arks Skyld; da gik David hen og førte Guds Ark op af Obed-Edoms Hus til Davids Stad med Glæde.
13 And it was [so], that when they that bore the ark of the LORD had gone six paces, he sacrificed oxen and fatlings.
Og det skete, naar de, som bare Herrens Ark, vare gaaede seks Trin, da ofrede man Øksne og fedt Kvæg.
14 And David danced before the LORD with all [his] might; and David [was] girded with a linen ephod.
Og David dansede af alle Kræfter for Herren Ansigt, og David var iført en linnet Livkjortel.
15 So David and all the house of Israel brought up the ark of the LORD with shouting, and with the sound of the trumpet.
Saa førte David og alt Israels Hus Herrens Ark op med Frydeskrig og med Basuns Lyd.
16 And as the ark of the LORD came into the city of David, Michal, Saul's daughter, looked through a window, and saw king David leaping and dancing before the LORD; and she despised him in her heart.
Og det skete, der Herrens Ark kom i Davids Stad, da saa Mikal, Sauls Datter, ud igennem Vinduet og saa Kong David springe af alle Kræfter for Herrens Ansigt, og hun foragtede ham i sit Hjerte.
17 And they brought in the ark of the LORD, and set it in its place, in the midst of the tabernacle that David had pitched for it: and David offered burnt-offerings and peace-offerings before the LORD.
Og de førte Herrens Ark ind og satte den paa sit Sted midt i Paulunet, som David havde opslaaet til den; og David ofrede Brændofre og Takofre for Herrens Ansigt.
18 And as soon as David had made an end of offering burnt-offerings and peace-offerings, he blessed the people in the name of the LORD of hosts.
Der David var færdig med at ofre Brændofre og Takofre, da velsignede han Folket i den Herre Zebaoths Navn.
19 And he dealt among all the people, [even] among the whole multitude of Israel, as well to the women as men, to every one a cake of bread, and a good piece [of flesh], and a flagon [of wine]. So all the people departed every one to his house.
Og han uddelte til alt Folket og til al Israels Mangfoldighed, baade Mand og Kvinde, til hver en Brødkage og et godt Stykke Kød og en Rosinkage; da gik alt Folket bort, hver til sit Hus.
20 Then David returned to bless his household. And Michal the daughter of Saul came out to meet David, and said, How glorious was the king of Israel to-day, who uncovered himself to-day in the eyes of the handmaids of his servants, as one of the vain fellows shamelessly uncovereth himself!
Der David kom tilbage for at velsigne sit Hus, da gik Mikal, Sauls Datter, ud imod David og sagde: Hvor æret var Israels Konge i Dag, som blottede sig i Dag for sine Tjeneres Tjenestepigers Øjne, ligesom en af løse Folk ubluelig blotter sig.
21 And David said to Michal, [It was] before the LORD, who chose me before thy father, and before all his house, to appoint me ruler over the people of the LORD, over Israel: therefore will I play before the LORD.
Da sagde David til Mikal: Det gjorde jeg for Herrens Ansigt, hans, som mig udvalgte fremfor din Fader og fremfor alt hans Hus, saa han befalede mig at være en Fyrste over Herrens Folk, over Israel, og jeg har leget for Herrens Ansigt.
22 And I shall yet be more vile than thus, and shall be base in my own sight: and by the maid-servants which thou hast spoken of, by them shall I be had in honor.
Og jeg vil endnu blive ringere end saa og ydmyge mig i mine egne Øjne; og de Tjenestepiger, som du talede om, med dem vil jeg æres.
23 Therefore Michal the daughter of Saul had no child until the day of her death.
Men Mikal, Sauls Datter, fik ikke noget Barn indtil sin Dødsdag.
