1 Chronicles 13
1 David consulted with the captains of thousands and of hundreds, even with every leader.
Devid na ndịisi agha ya na-achị imerime puku ndị agha, na ọtụtụ narị ndị agha, zukọrọ gbaa izu.
2 David said to all the assembly of Israel, “If it seems good to you, and if it is of Yahweh our God, let’s send word everywhere to our brothers who are left in all the land of Israel, with whom the priests and Levites are in their cities that have pasture lands, that they may gather themselves to us.
Ọ gwara ọgbakọ Izrel niile ahụ sị, “Ọ bụrụ na ọ dị unu mma, ọ bụrụkwa na ọ bụ ọchịchọ Onyenwe anyị Chineke anyị, ka anyị ziga ozi zie ụmụnna anyị niile bi nʼakụkụ niile nke ala Izrel, na ndị nchụaja na ndị Livayị niile, bi nʼobodo ha na ndị bi nʼebe ịta nri nke anụ ụlọ ha, ka ha bịa, soro anyị.
3 Also, let’s bring the ark of our God back to us again, for we didn’t seek it in the days of Saul.”
Ka anyị gaa bulata igbe ọgbụgba ndụ Chineke nʼihi na e lefuru ya anya nʼoge ahụ niile Sọl bụ eze.”
4 All the assembly said that they would do so, for the thing was right in the eyes of all the people.
Ha niile kwekọrịtara ime nke a nʼihi na okwu ahụ dị ndị niile zukọrọ mma.
5 So David assembled all Israel together, from the Shihor River of Egypt even to the entrance of Hamath, to bring God’s ark from Kiriath Jearim.
Mgbe ahụ, Devid kpọrọ ndị Izrel niile oku ka ha zuo ezuo site nʼebe niile ha bi, site nʼoke ala ha na ndị Ijipt, ya bụ iyi Shiho, ruo nʼoke ala dị nʼugwu, ya bụ Lebo Hamat, ka ha gaa bulata igbe ọgbụgba ndụ Chineke site na Kiriat Jearim.
6 David went up with all Israel to Baalah, that is, to Kiriath Jearim, which belonged to Judah, to bring up from there God Yahweh’s ark that sits above the cherubim, that is called by the Name.
Devid na ndị Izrel niile jere Baala nʼime Juda, ya bụ Kiriat Jearim, i si nʼebe ahụ bugota igbe ọgbụgba ndụ Chineke, bụ Onyenwe anyị, onye na-anọkwasị nʼetiti cherubim, igbe ahụ nke akpọkwasịrị aha ya.
7 They carried God’s ark on a new cart, and brought it out of Abinadab’s house; and Uzza and Ahio drove the cart.
Ha ji ụgbọala ọhụrụ ehi na-adọkpụ buru igbe ọgbụgba ndụ Chineke site nʼụlọ Abinadab, Ụza na Ahio na-eduzi ụgbọala ahụ ụzọ.
8 David and all Israel played before God with all their might, even with songs, with harps, with stringed instruments, with tambourines, with cymbals, and with trumpets.
Devid na ndị Izrel niile weere ike ha niile na-aṅụ ọṅụ nʼihu Chineke, jiri abụ, ụbọ akwara, opi, une na ogene na iti egwu na-etekwa egwu.
9 When they came to Chidon’s threshing floor, Uzza put out his hand to hold the ark, for the oxen stumbled.
Mgbe ha rutere nʼebe ịzọcha ọka nke Kidon, Ụza setịpụrụ aka ya ijide igbe ọgbụgba ndụ ahụ, nʼihi na ehi ahụ zọhiere ụkwụ.
10 Yahweh’s anger burned against Uzza, and he struck him because he put his hand on the ark; and he died there before God.
Ma iwe Onyenwe anyị dị ọkụ megide Ụza, o tigburu ya nʼihi na o metụrụ igbe ọgbụgba ndụ ahụ aka. Ya mere, ọ nwụrụ nʼebe ahụ nʼihu Chineke.
11 David was displeased, because Yahweh had broken out against Uzza. He called that place Perez Uzza, to this day.
Mgbe ahụ, iwe were Devid nʼihi ọnụma Onyenwe anyị dakwasịrị Ụza, ruo taa, a na-akpọ ebe ahụ Perez Ụza.
12 David was afraid of God that day, saying, “How can I bring God’s ark home to me?”
Devid tụrụ egwu Chineke nʼụbọchị ahụ, o kwuru sị, “M ga-esi aṅaa bubatara onwe m igbe ọgbụgba ndụ a?”
13 So David didn’t move the ark with him into David’s city, but carried it aside into Obed-Edom the Gittite’s house.
O bubataghị igbe ọgbụgba ndụ ahụ nʼime obodo Devid, kama o bugara ya nʼụlọ Obed-Edọm, onye Git.
14 God’s ark remained with the family of Obed-Edom in his house three months; and Yahweh blessed Obed-Edom’s house and all that he had.
Igbe ọgbụgba ndụ Chineke ahụ nọrọ nʼezinaụlọ Obed-Edọm nʼụlọ ya ọnwa atọ. Onyenwe anyị gọzikwara ezinaụlọ ya na ihe niile o nwere.
