1 Chronicles 13
1 And David consulteth with the heads of the thousands, and of the hundreds, every leader,
Dawid ne ne mpanimfoɔ a nʼasraafoɔ asahene ne mmapɔmma nyinaa ka ho, tuu agyina.
2 and David saith to all the assembly of Israel, 'If unto you it be good, and from Jehovah our God it hath broken forth — we send unto our brethren, those left in all the lands of Israel, and with them the priests and the Levites, in the cities of their suburbs, and they are gathered unto us,
Na ɔkasa kyerɛɛ Israelfoɔ a wɔahyia hɔ no nyinaa sɛ, “Sɛ mopene so na sɛ ɛyɛ Awurade yɛn Onyankopɔn pɛ a, momma yɛnto nkra nkɔma Israelfoɔ a wɔwɔ ɔman no afanan nyinaa a asɔfoɔ ne Lewifoɔ a wɔwɔ nkuro so ne adidibea ka ho. Momma yɛnto nsa mfrɛ wɔn, na wɔmmɛka yɛn ho.
3 and we bring round the ark of our God unto us, for we sought Him not in the days of Saul.'
Ɛberɛ aduru sɛ yɛsane de yɛn Onyankopɔn Apam Adaka no ba, ɛfiri sɛ, Saulo ahennie ɛberɛ so no, yɛampɛ anhwɛ.”
4 And all the assembly say to do so, for the thing is right in the eyes of all the people.
Badwa no penee saa asɛm yi so ɛfiri sɛ, wɔhunuu sɛ, wɔyɛ saa a, ɛyɛ.
5 And David assembleth all Israel from Shihor of Egypt even unto the entering in of Hamath, to bring in the ark of God from Kirjath-Jearim,
Enti, Dawid frɛɛ nnipa a wɔwɔ Israel nyinaa, ɛfiri ɔman no tire kɔsi tire, sɛ wɔmmɛka ne ho na wɔmfa Onyankopɔn Apam Adaka no mfiri Kiriat-Yearim mmra.
6 and David goeth up, and all Israel, to Baalah, unto Kirjath-Jearim that [is] to Judah, to bring up thence the ark of God Jehovah, inhabiting the cherubs, where the Name is called on.
Afei, Dawid ne Israelfoɔ no nyinaa kɔɔ Baala a na wɔfrɛ no Kiriat-Yearim a ɛwɔ Yuda no sɛ wɔrekɔfa Onyankopɔn Apam Adaka a wɔde ahyɛ Kerubim ntam na Awurade din da so no aba.
7 And they place the ark of God on a new cart, from the house of Abinadab, and Uzza and Ahio are leading the cart,
Wɔde Onyankopɔn Apam Adaka no sii teaseɛnam foforɔ so de firii Abinadab fie a Usa ne Ahio rekyerɛ ɛkwan.
8 and David and all Israel are playing before God, with all strength, and with songs, and with harps, and with psalteries, and with timbrels, and with cymbals, and with trumpets.
Dawid ne Israelfoɔ nyinaa firii wɔn ahoɔden mu too nnwom, bɔɔ mmɛn ahodoɔ a ebi yɛ asankuo, mmɛnta, mpintin, nnawuro ne ntotorobɛnto dii ahurisie wɔ Onyankopɔn anim.
9 And they come in unto the threshing-floor of Chidon, and Uzza putteth forth his hand to seize the ark, for the oxen were released,
Nanso wɔduruu Nakon ayuporobea no, anantwie no anan totoeɛ maa Usa tenee ne nsa sɛ ɔretene Apam Adaka no.
10 and the anger of Jehovah is kindled against Uzza, and He smiteth him, because that he hath put forth his hand on the ark, and he dieth there before God.
Ɛhɔ na Awurade abufuo sɔre tiaa Usa maa ɔwuiɛ ɛfiri sɛ, ɔde ne nsa aka Apam Adaka no. Enti Usa wuu wɔ Onyankopɔn anim hɔ ara.
11 And it is displeasing to David, because Jehovah hath made a breach upon Uzza, and one calleth that place 'Breach of Uzza' unto this day.
Dawid bo fuiɛ, ɛfiri sɛ Awurade abufuo atia Usa. Ɔtoo beaeɛ hɔ edin Peres-Usa a wɔda so frɛ hɔ saa de bɛsi ɛnnɛ.
12 And David feareth God on that day, saying, 'How do I bring in unto me the ark of God?'
Afei, na Dawid suro Onyankopɔn, na ɔbisaa sɛ, “Ɛbɛyɛ dɛn na matumi de Onyankopɔn Apam Adaka yi aba abɛhwɛ so?”
13 And David hath not turned aside the ark unto himself, unto the city of David, and turneth it aside unto the house of Obed-Edom the Gittite.
Enti, Dawid yɛɛ nʼadwene sɛ ɔnna mfa Apam Adaka no nkɔ Dawid kuro no mu. Mmom, ɔde kɔɔ Gatni, Obed-Edom fie wɔ Gat.
14 And the ark of God dwelleth with the household of Obed-Edom, in his house, three months, and Jehovah blesseth the house of Obed-Edom, and all that he hath.
Onyankopɔn Apam Adaka no sii Obed-Edom abusuafoɔ nkyɛn abosome mmiɛnsa. Na Awurade hyiraa no ne ne fiefoɔ nyinaa.
