2 Samuel 6
1 David again gathered together all the chosen men of Israel, thirty thousand.
大衛又聚集以色列中所有挑選的人三萬。
2 David arose and went with all the people who were with him from Baale Judah, to bring up from there God’s ark, which is called by the Name, even the name of Yahweh of Armies who sits above the cherubim.
大衛起身，率領跟隨他的眾人前往，要從巴拉‧猶大將上帝的約櫃運來；這約櫃就是坐在二基路伯上萬軍之耶和華留名的約櫃。
3 They set God’s ark on a new cart, and brought it out of Abinadab’s house that was on the hill; and Uzzah and Ahio, the sons of Abinadab, drove the new cart.
他們將上帝的約櫃從岡上亞比拿達的家裏抬出來，放在新車上；亞比拿達的兩個兒子烏撒和亞希約趕這新車。
4 They brought it out of Abinadab’s house which was in the hill, with God’s ark; and Ahio went before the ark.
他們將上帝的約櫃從岡上亞比拿達家裏抬出來的時候，亞希約在櫃前行走。
5 David and all the house of Israel played before Yahweh with all kinds of instruments made of cypress wood, with harps, with stringed instruments, with tambourines, with castanets, and with cymbals.
大衛和以色列的全家在耶和華面前，用松木製造的各樣樂器和琴、瑟、鼓、鈸、鑼，作樂跳舞。
6 When they came to the threshing floor of Nacon, Uzzah reached for God’s ark and took hold of it, for the cattle stumbled.
到了拿艮的禾場，因為牛失前蹄，烏撒就伸手扶住上帝的約櫃。
7 Yahweh’s anger burned against Uzzah, and God struck him there for his error; and he died there by God’s ark.
上帝耶和華向烏撒發怒，因這錯誤擊殺他，他就死在上帝的約櫃旁。
8 David was displeased because Yahweh had broken out against Uzzah; and he called that place Perez Uzzah to this day.
大衛因耶和華擊殺 烏撒，心裏愁煩，就稱那地方為毗列斯‧烏撒，直到今日。
9 David was afraid of Yahweh that day; and he said, “How could Yahweh’s ark come to me?”
那日，大衛懼怕耶和華，說：「耶和華的約櫃怎可運到我這裏來？」
10 So David would not move Yahweh’s ark to be with him in David’s city; but David carried it aside into Obed-Edom the Gittite’s house.
於是大衛不肯將耶和華的約櫃運進大衛的城，卻運到迦特人俄別‧以東的家中。
11 Yahweh’s ark remained in Obed-Edom the Gittite’s house three months; and Yahweh blessed Obed-Edom and all his house.
耶和華的約櫃在迦特人俄別‧以東家中三個月；耶和華賜福給俄別‧以東和他的全家。
12 King David was told, “Yahweh has blessed the house of Obed-Edom, and all that belongs to him, because of God’s ark.” So David went and brought up God’s ark from the house of Obed-Edom into David’s city with joy.
有人告訴大衛王說：「耶和華因為約櫃賜福給俄別‧以東的家和一切屬他的。」大衛就去，歡歡喜喜地將上帝的約櫃從俄別‧以東家中抬到大衛的城裏。
13 When those who bore Yahweh’s ark had gone six paces, he sacrificed an ox and a fattened calf.
抬耶和華約櫃的人走了六步，大衛就獻牛與肥羊為祭。
14 David danced before Yahweh with all his might; and David was clothed in a linen ephod.
大衛穿着細麻布的以弗得，在耶和華面前極力跳舞。
15 So David and all the house of Israel brought up Yahweh’s ark with shouting and with the sound of the trumpet.
這樣，大衛和以色列的全家歡呼吹角，將耶和華的約櫃抬上來。
16 As Yahweh’s ark came into David’s city, Michal the daughter of Saul looked out through the window and saw King David leaping and dancing before Yahweh; and she despised him in her heart.
耶和華的約櫃進了大衛城的時候，掃羅的女兒米甲從窗戶裏觀看，見大衛王在耶和華面前踴躍跳舞，心裏就輕視他。
17 They brought in Yahweh’s ark, and set it in its place in the middle of the tent that David had pitched for it; and David offered burnt offerings and peace offerings before Yahweh.
眾人將耶和華的約櫃請進去，安放在所預備的地方，就是在大衛所搭的帳幕裏。大衛在耶和華面前獻燔祭和平安祭。
18 When David had finished offering the burnt offering and the peace offerings, he blessed the people in the name of Yahweh of Armies.
大衛獻完了燔祭和平安祭，就奉萬軍之耶和華的名給民祝福，
19 He gave to all the people, even among the whole multitude of Israel, both to men and women, to everyone a portion of bread, dates, and raisins. So all the people departed, each to his own house.
並且分給以色列眾人，無論男女，每人一個餅，一塊肉，一個葡萄餅；眾人就各回各家去了。
20 Then David returned to bless his household. Michal the daughter of Saul came out to meet David, and said, “How glorious the king of Israel was today, who uncovered himself today in the eyes of his servants’ maids, as one of the vain fellows shamelessly uncovers himself!”
大衛回家要給眷屬祝福；掃羅的女兒米甲出來迎接他，說：「以色列王今日在臣僕的婢女眼前露體，如同一個輕賤人無恥露體一樣，有好大的榮耀啊！」
21 David said to Michal, “It was before Yahweh, who chose me above your father, and above all his house, to appoint me prince over the people of Yahweh, over Israel. Therefore I will celebrate before Yahweh.
大衛對米甲說：「這是在耶和華面前；耶和華已揀選我，廢了你父和你父的全家，立我作耶和華民以色列的君，所以我必在耶和華面前跳舞。
22 I will be yet more undignified than this, and will be worthless in my own sight. But the maids of whom you have spoken will honor me.”
我也必更加卑微，自己看為輕賤。你所說的那些婢女，她們倒要尊敬我。」
23 Michal the daughter of Saul had no child to the day of her death.
掃羅的女兒米甲，直到死日，沒有生養兒女。
